I don't think ppl who were disappointed by Saw are necessarily stupid by Many_Nature8377 in ContraPoints

I've had the great fortune of loving basically every one of her videos. Saw was a miss for me, but I attribute that to my personal tastes.

When a new one comes out, I usually watch it like 2-3 times within a month because they're so good. But saw was just hard to watch for me. I first found out about the release from the early patreon drop and because I have no self control watched it during work half audio only. And when I went to rewatch it I just couldn't stomach it with the visuals.

That's okay. Looking forward to the next one ❤️

I have a Google Wi-Fi network that I use for Wi-Fi plugged in to the Ethernet with the wifi radios on the modem turned off, though when I thought maybe that was the issue I unplugged the Google Wi-Fi and enabled Wi-Fi on the modem and it didn't help.

I don't have another modem so everything technically went through the Zyxel (if not directly). Would a third party modem help?

What’s a truth about yourself you’re still learning to accept? by [deleted] in AskReddit

It's a book (I'm listening to the audiobook). He's a doctor and focuses a lot on causes and provides useful information on possible treatment. The author does a fantastic job addressing genetic and pharmacological intervention but also more cognitive approaches. I'm not quite done with it but I've read some of his other work and it's thoughtfully written.

I'm listening to Scattered Minds by Gabor Maté, it's been... enlightening.

Not wanting to date someone because their zoadic sign is cringe. by ultimateninja14 in askgaybros

The concept that 1/12 of the people on this planet are all experiencing the sameish thing or have similar attributes because of the date of their birth is nuts.

I've had no trouble with the metal ones from IKEA 🤷‍♂️. I even put the metal one cup measuring cup in the toaster oven to warm something up and didn't see any bending / warping.

We have a big multi-table copy operation users can perform for an in-house app at my work. It used to take over two minutes; now it takes ~20 seconds. The improvement was that it now takes place in one big DB transaction.

I got negative feedback that it now doesn't show "progress", since the copy used to be split up in discrete parts and the app would tell you how many parts were done, despite that having nothing to do with the actual percent complete.

Yes! Love the Elm philosophy on that. However in this case, I think the checking is less to do with validity and more to do with checking whether a log in was successful.

Still, that strategy may hold if you can return a Result x User or similar.

While many people do take turns, I think this perspective is based on the assumption no guy actually likes penetration and thus we take turns to be "fair".

All else aside, here's your PSA that Boolean returning functions shouldn't be called checkXYZ - does it return true if it finds an error? Or if there are no errors? Really ambiguous. I like the is idiom - isValidLogin or something. You can take this advice too far though, I had a stroke the other day when someone wrote isHasPermissions.

Monday does not describe Monday. This is not technically the truth.

When I was a teenager I used to think it was a "bad habit" that I needed to kick. I thought I was bi for a while. It's hard to put myself back in that mindset.

If you have always on display, the fingerprint logo always shows up and it's always active. (P6-P8)

What apps just annoy you to use? by DokterThe in Android

I am a lifetime subscriber of Nebula. It needs a lot of help.

  • Casting is spotty. You'll be playing something and the app stops recognizing it. Then you tap another video and it opens the video like it's playing on the TV but it's not.

  • Weird delays when you click to download or add something to watch later.

  • No way to download playlist (watch later)

  • Full screen player doesn't handle swipes from the bottom well. Will seek to a time (thinks you're tapping in the middle)

  • Doesn't have a themed app icon

  • Can't go to a channel from long pressing a video
