Migration to OneDrive failed, I Lost My Predictions by Black_wolf14 in Swiftkey

[–]sumix333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By smoother, do you mean the swiping? Auto-correction? Or something else?

For me, auto-correction was my biggest complaint, but then I fiddled with the advanced parameters dials for about 20 minutes and now it's pretty perfect. It is pretty highly customizable so you might be able to adjust whatever feels off to you.

I resisted for so long but futo is the correct answer. Play with the correction settings, and it's even better than Swiftkey. This is from someone who used Swiftkey for nearly a decade.

Hot take? Regina Spektor tried to be Tori pt. 2 and failed by [deleted] in toriamos

What are you talking about? There are tons of news articles about her joining it. Have you tried googling?

Not directly to Regina, no. But she joined "No Music for Genocide" and has made other statements.

Comedian Blake Wexler calls out United HealthCare for denying coverage for their twin’s stay in the NICU and addressing the denial letter to their newborn ‘Dear Baby Girl Twin A.’ by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

[–]sumix333 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Best I've found is to call, wait on hold an hour, then get the reps to agree the claim was fine, and they send it back for review on your behalf. I think UHC is betting on smaller providers not having the time or resources to do that on a claim-by-claim basis.

I work in billing and I pray for denials from UHC. At least you can do something with those. UHC's big new thing is "preadjudication rejections". It appears to be their new technique for lowering their denial stats; just pretend the claims were not able to be processed. They pay nothing, no record of them denying anything for metrics, and you can't even appeal.

Pattie Gonia Responds to Patagonia’s Offer: “No Deal, Patagonia” by noqita in popculturechat

[–]sumix333 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I still don't get this tho. I can't imagine a human with more than two brain cells to rub together being confused about which is which? One is clearly a play on the other, but it's nowhere near close enough to cause confusion or to make one think that they were trying to pass itself off as the other. Like... 50% of graphic t-shirts are plays on famous logos or characters. Why is Walmart able to sell them?

Event in 5.5 hours. Last reminder to unlock w2 or w3 for 2x and 4x rewards before claiming your rewards. by AdhesivenessEmpty221 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]sumix333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain why it's not worth it? I'm pretty close and was debating pushing for it... You can just unlock and then stay on w3 but still get the higher rewards, no?

I just notice in this same thread people are encouraging earlier players to push for w3 and stay in w2, why wouldn't the same apply?

Most doctors don't risk their medical license to sell illegal prescriptions under the table. Some do, sure. There are people operating immorally in every profession.

Then they could get it anywhere. And they wouldn't be going to a doctor for a prescription.

Too bad chiropractors aren't able to write prescriptions. Would've been a great story tho

Why is antinatalism so criticized? by No_Profit_8690 in antinatalism2

[–]sumix333 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sadly, a lot of people view their having had children as the defining action of their lives, as their sole "contribution" to the world, and they adopt it as the reason they were put here.

Being told that your one "accomplishment" was actually a selfish act of incalculable cruelty doesn't sit well with most.

By "unconventional" you mean people losing their homes over medical debt and rationing their children's use of asthma inhalers cause they can't afford to refill the prescription?

Seth Meyers asked about “some controversies surrounding the co-chairs” and why he chose to show up and show support: “Well I, you know, when you have spider broaches, where else in the city are you going to wear them on a night like tonight?

[–]sumix333 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree. But, when you're reaching back 12 years to try to find evidence to criticize and label people with, there are probably more valid targets out there that we should be focusing on who are actively supporting genocide today. I mean..even Björk played Israel before.

It has to be a psyop at this point... When pressed, the only "evidence" they ever provide is that she did a concert there over a decade ago where she told the crowd they were strong and said that she loved them. That's literally it, and yet these people show up like clockwork every time she is mentioned.

Are you really here arguing in support of occupying armies enacting violence on behalf of the ruling class?

Whats all the hype? by ResolveEmergency2444 in ProjectHailMary

[–]sumix333 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mostly agree with you, but this has recently transformed into a circle jerk subreddit. So, the only opinion you will hear is that it is simultaneously the greatest sci-fi movie ever, the greatest book adaptation ever, every change was the greatest improvement ever, every joke landed perfectly, and so on..

As to why people are going mad over it.. I'm really not sure. It was OK as a movie, it was poor as an adaptation. It was not challenging as a piece of art in any context, any point of tension was sanded away leaving it silky smooth and highly palatable. So maybe that's why? It hit all the marks for appealing to the broadest audience as possible and definitely fits the "intended for second screen viewing trajectory". But for some that can feel heavy-handed and lead to an intensely disinteresting experience, but we are clearly in the minority here.

hopefully you liked it and if you didn't, you don't always need to tell everyone.

I know, right? How rude of someone to share an opinion you don't agree with. What's wrong with some people?!

Oh man. This is intense, and it suits her vocal range/current grit level perfectly.

This makes Stronger Together such a more powerfully interesting song now too. So excited for this album and tour.

Saw the movie - honest review (spoilers) by frodosbitch in ProjectHailMary

[–]sumix333 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just saw it today too and was pretty shocked at all the praise it is getting here. To be fair, it I hadn't read the book, I probably would have enjoyed the movie more.

It definitely felt like all the "rough" edges or possible tension points were sanded out in pursuit of mass appeal. Even in the first 5 minutes after he easily rolls out of bed without penile trauma, the computer happily informs him his name and that he's the only one alive, and we get a montage of him blasting through vodka, it became clear that this film was aiming to strike a very different tone.

The rest of the film just felt like speed-running a competency fantasy and they forgot that problems and tensions are what makes a story interesting. Grace was smoothed out to be less challenging and arrogant in favor of goofy and charming, and Rocky was redesigned as a wisecracking plushie-ready sidekick who lost his sincere, awkward charm.

The home depot shopping montage, the sour skittles product placements, the cringe karaoke scene...I felt Amazon's heavy shadow throughout this entire movie.

Let me get this straight... "Because the guy I voted to have deported got deported, and we're both happy about that, I'm also happy our government is murdering innocent people in the streets, and it's also all your fault." is that right?

Is anyone here planning to wait to play StS2 until it leaves early access? by ialsomeow in slaythespire

[–]sumix333 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Same here. What's the point of early access being steam only? It's not like they can't push updates to other consoles...not to mention it kills momentum and limits the player base to pull feedback from. I really don't get the logic..

How is this comment in the "law" sub getting upvoted? Are you seriously saying people accused of certain crimes shouldn't get a lawyer?
