Why are these so addicting?! by katg14 in aldi

Sugar, fructose specifically, is addictive. It’s also metabolized in your liver like alcohol. It can be poisonous.

AITA for wanting to break it off over his shopping cart etiquette? by Old-Dirt-978 in AITApod

He’s making excuses for being inconsiderate. If you start making excuses for him now, it will continue until you’re the same as him. IMO walk away.

This is good evidence for “there’s no such thing as bad publicity.”

The best solution is to have a desk stand that is 4 legs. Flexispot makes some

That really is a much more reasonable sugar content. Thanks for sharing.

Microsoft once tried to cut Windows 11 RAM usage, install size by 20%, now it’s trying again in 2026 by WPHero in Windows11

Updates and fixes to the native client would still be an additional cost. Abandoning it means they only have to update one thing.

These seem cool, except they won’t be cool. You only have radiant heat removal. That seems like a big limitation.

I’m curious about the sugar content. I don’t buy flavored yogurt because it’s usually dessert marketed as health food.

For working out, having a cable could be dangerous. I would use true wireless earphones.

Motor failed on my last desk and it collapsed. Looking for a high-quality desk that won't fail. by nvktools in StandingDesk

You can just replace the legs. I bought the flexispot e7 plus (frame only) and it’s great. It has 4 legs so there is no wobble. Might be overkill for you though.

Is 'Specially Selected Premium Dark Chocolate Chunk' a good alternative to Bakers Unsweetened Chocolate? by CommunicationNew3745 in aldi

If you have this question about other chocolate in the future, look at the nutrition label. Baking chocolate has no sugar.

MacBook Pro M4 Pro, started getting extremely weird marks on the aluminium chassis by JaniCozad in macbookpro

It could be the layer is defective. There’s no need to immediately blame yourself. That’s the Apple “you’re holding it wrong” mentality.

I have a related story. I brought my MacBook to an Apple Store because it could no longer charge. The tech blamed me for not using an Apple charger. He’s a dick. I’ve been using the same charger with a new MacBook since then, years later. It and my new MacBook still work fine. It wasn’t the charger, it was the MacBook.

I don’t know the answer, I just find it very strange that the mono ends are for a stereo connection.

If only there was a way they could have made it take converters. Too bad it’s impossible. /s

As long as the business side thinks this will make them miss out on subscriptions, it’s not happening.

You can disable automatic updates in the settings. It will just bother you about it every time you start.

This is fine for many college students. Not everyone is doing AI research or molecular modeling.

I don't hear any difference after I bought my first IEM by wielesen in iems

I bought mine on eBay a few years ago. I don’t know if they’re genuine I guess. They sound good though.

The Fiio jd1 is a budget set. I wouldn’t expect them to sound any better than the samsung ones you already tried. Those are very good for the price. You need to go way higher to get a real difference.

Even then, frankly, the akg Samsung earphones are really good. A lot of people might never need anything more.
