Probably not unpopular.
99 percent of what’s on youtube doesn’t appeal to a person.
Problem is that 1 percent that appeals to the person varies from person to person. (Still I’d say above 50 percent of videos on YouTube, only 40 percent or so get 300 views.)
Spotify has definitely helped me to discover new artists, but then I mostly listen to that artist on Spotify (Mostly because I’m not in their country.)
LIght a fire.
Two possibilities, no more Racoon, or a delicious flame broiled Racoon.
Shit I forgot “Racoon drops out of the chimney, lights tail on file, runs around house like a racoon with a tail on fire, and burns down your house…” so three possibilities
Are we getting Spotify for free, if we’re buying premium?
The problem is you can’t “buy” products any more. Companies see that as interest, and then start to throw additional advertising to see how much they can get away with. Fuck that shit.
They’ve also run almost any way to do it outside of their ecosystems. If I want to listen to happy hardcore music, I have to hope spotify has it, but it’s rare to find that on most playlists, I’d have to go spend thousands of dollars for the same experience that Spotify offers, and that’s to own every track I’m even curious about.
There’s probably bullshit jobs.
But there’s probably a lot that you think are “Bullshit jobs” and really you mean “I don’t see what they do” I thought “Scrum master” was a joke of a title for someone to do fuck all. Then I had to take over for my scrum master for 2 weeks. Holy shit, that was the most eye opening experience. He’s in 6 hours of meetings a day, talking to management, designing future work, working on requirements, dealing with the minutia, dealing with three different PMs who need work done by us, and prioritizing their requests to get everything done, assisting everyone on and off the team, and basically keeping the 6 of us on the team from dealing with what we would call “Annoying pointless shit” which is actually really important for other people.
My scrum master talks about “Seeing the bigger picture” and I get it now. But the thing is it’d also be really easy for someone to think he has a “Bullshit job”… but he’s also the reason we work 40 hour weeks and not 80 hours.
You nailed it. It’s artificially deflated prices, and dishonest…
Would be the last time I visited them.
I tip twenty most places. Easy to calculate and fair.
I see this and they have gotten my tip. If you work there and are upset by that, then you need to find another job because the company is stealing your tips no matter what. And I personally won’t return, because it’s never the best restaurants who pull this shit.
Similarly if a company puts automatic gratuity on my bill that’s the tip as well… And usually it’s less than I’d give freely.
If Americans are supposed to tip extra it their choice. If you want to define service charges or something like this, then you’ve made your choice. Greedy fucks trying to hide these extra charges need to stop. I’ll pay more for food on a menu if that’s what it takes but trying to sneak it is bullshit.
That’s just in general the problem with the Internet. I’d love pics groups to be just user created pics. But unfortunately it seems like people think they can screen grab, download, or just link to any picture on the internet with no attribution or proof they have the rights to use it.
People seem to wake up when you post every picture from a comic book or manga but I wonder if someone took every photograph or painting by a famous artist and posted it. I imagine most people would highly upvotes that instead of calling it out for what it is.
The word was porn. Lemmy world already federated from at least one server in regards to CP. But fear of CP isn’t enough to block all porn. Piracy though is always illegal and that’s why it’s more strict than some titties and ass.
Some form (most forms?) of porn are legal in most places. Piracy isn’t legal in most places.
I’m not defending porn or saying piracy is bad, but legally I understand they don’t want to open themselves up to liability.
It’d be lovely if we could start codifying abandonware… or better yet, return copyright law to reasonable lengths (20 years)
The biggest thing is simply. "Lemmy.world "…
If someone really is that upset, create your own instance. Find an instance that agrees with you and swap it. I’m not anti-piracy, but this seems like a fundamental difference between you and Lemmy World, that essentially means you should find a different instance.
(or go create an account on a piracy server and here if that’s what it takes)
Let me put it this way.
If you don’t like your bidet, you don’t trigger it. If you like it, you enjoy it.
My wife and I enjoy it quite a bit. To the point that when I used the other bathroom, there’s been at least one case, where I’ve cleaned up in there, went into the other bathroom and got a better clean.
As for “how to use it” It will depend on the bidet on how to use it, but for ours you turn the knob, spray your special areas (There’s two directions to turn, as a guy I don’t notice a major difference, but I imagine a woman might, as one spray feels a bit “longer”, but not to the point where I think it’ll hit everything down there" You get jet water on your bum, I tend to move around a little to make sure it’s getting the whole area, then turn it off. Then wipe (I use toilet paper).
You wipe more to “Dry” than to “Clean” which is a lovely feeling.
There’s two must buys in the bathroom, the squatty potty and the bidet. I would say the Squatty potty is more important (I miss it more) but the bidet is getting up there.
I take that more as a good sign. We should have limited laws rather than a law for everything possible someone can do wrong.
Then again the fact should be seen as a condemnation of that woman. Don’t be the reason a new law is made.
Reddit’s decline is greatly exaggerated.
Depends but pretty much sure.
I’d rather take a lot of money from someone I hate so I can donate it to stuff I like than a little money from people already doing what I want.
Obviously good pay is subjective but at the end of they day you need to eat and pay for housing. Not everyone is going to ideologically match with their company.
Also how else can these companies change if everyone buys the corporate line who works for them.
Exactly, any other time that would be called consolidation … but that doesn’t drive engagement so we will say leaving. …
Ignoring also it’s Australia instead of America broadcast channel… Which most people would assume.
Such a non story.
Ten percent of people didn’t know and now feel bad they were tricked…
The other ninety percent don’t care because they just have hate boners for Twitter.
"But it was a cess pool in the way I like it … fuck it I’m going back to Tumblr … "
politics-related data
Yes.
I’m annoyed with how low-effort, entirely un-researched content
And you think a wiki will solve that? Lol… yeah this is a bad idea.
No one should trust a wiki for anything other than information on a tv show or a boss, and even then trust but verify. And this is something that you would need to trust.
You’re better off creating a blog, or find already established blogs who do this, because stuff like Five Three Eight exists. ’
“Original research”
There’s a reason peer reviewed research is practically required, and even then there’s HUGE problems with that model, but having people go out for original research is basically saying “Let people make up bullshit.”… not a good idea.
“Thank god she chose that one, the rest are my drugs.”
