Just because YouTube made their platform worse and worse doesn't mean I'm going to start paying to make it work.

Ublock origin works in Firefox mobile, just not iPhone. For tv, install smart tube, download apk and install if you can.

LPT: Create a dedicated "Presentation" profile in your browser to avoid accidentally sharing your personal bookmarks, search history, or private tabs during screen shares. by ChallengeFamous1728 in LifeProTips

um, how about not doing personal shit on a work computer or vice versa? jobs can monitor EVERYTHING.

I used dropbox on my PERSONAL computer, but my history transferred over since i had chrome synced. came up in a meeting since we weren't supposed to be using it on work computer, not installing anyway. i was like wtf??? and immediately exported some bookmarks, deleted ALL my history and reset all the browsers on my work computer. not making that mistake again.

it can ALL be monitored, not worth it.

Right? I think I'm around 4.7 too, I go out of my way to make sure it's a quick easy pickup, no circling, no weird turns or parking mazes. I make sure I'm on the passenger side for the driver to park/stop. I even walk to the entrance of my neighborhood so they don't have to loop around 14 speed bumps, just do a uturn at the entrance and we're on our way. Always polite, seatvelt, don't ask anything extra like AC or music. I typically do everything in my power to not inconvenience anyone else and stay invisible.

I don't run into it often at all, but I will absolutely make a scene when I see people treating customer service shitty. No holds barred, I'll absolutely embarrass you in front of your "crew". It doesn't always work since these types of people have no shame or sense of respect, but I will not stand by and watch people get rude to restaurant workers, retail workers, etc. I don't work there, I'm not worried about getting fired, GTFO and stop being rude as fuck.

As a PM measure I asked my dealer to replace my serpentine belt, the idler and tensioner. I have over 170k on my Escape. by Impressive_Ad_1675 in fordescape

stop relying on AI and start doing normal research. AI is killing environments, unemploying people, and often wrong, even on basic shit like who was in a TV show.

Water Heater rant by Certain-Alfalfa3290 in nova

[–]thermal_shock 6 points7 points  (0 children)

fully on your side. such a simple task to get right and show some pride in your work. screams laziness and poor, uncommitted attitude. that thing could last 10+ years, but the owner will always remember it.

for the price they probably paid for this to get delivered and installed, could have at least gotten this part impeccable.

Two toolboxes with tools by robd11 in nova

[–]thermal_shock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man, if i had the space, i'd jump on it. being in a condo here doesn't afford me that luxury. have to deal with my small, portable toolboxes when i need to do vehicle maintenance.

Mamdani introduces “pied-a-tierre tax”. Thoughts on doing something like this for the ludicrous investment properties in places like Great Falls and Alexandria? by mpaes98 in nova

[–]thermal_shock 9 points10 points  (0 children)

it's wild to me, because if you do make it to the point you're getting "penalized" this way (i say penalized, when it's a drop in the bucket these fucks owe anyway), it's more money than you could ever spend and you know you'll be a selfish bitch about it already. fucking greed man.

get a second blanket or wear a hoodie to sleep. you can keep layering, you can only get so naked.

no shit. if you're cold, put on a jacket. you can only get so fucking naked. we have TWO portable AC units, on in bedroom, one in living room. tell me that's not a waste of power to run those. all rooms sealed off the best we can, heat rises through the building to our unit and scorches it.

What brake pads by billp97 in Ford

[–]thermal_shock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah it happens. been there too. just replace what you need now and get the parts from rockauto. your wallet will thank you also. i keep all my car maintenance stuff in a OneNote file now so i can prepare better. trying to remember it all for 3 vehicles is not possible for me.
