It also happened to me 20 years ago so I guess nothing changes. If you wore Sketchers, you were going to get bullied.

It’s okay I always hated Sketchers too. They were the shoe that you buy if you want to get bullied. Guess that’s still true today.

Well I’m in late 30s and high school was 20 years ago at this point, so I caved and finally bought a pair. Settled on their knockoff version of the Nike Flex and I couldn’t be more pleased. They’re just as comfortable as the real Flex, and 5x cheaper too. That said, part of me is still embarrassed to be wearing Sketchers. I wish the logo was easier to remove…

I also want six face buttons for fighting games. Somebody, please release a controller like this already. I haven’t seen one since the Sega Saturn.

Oh, right. A show. Of course.

Took long enough. People are so god damn stubborn.

Windows 11 is an annoying experience out of the box, yes; like Linux, you have to do some tweaking to get it functioning the way you like it (start with installing StartAllBack to fix the Start Menu + taskbar issues, and O&O Shut Up 10 to stop the ads and telemetey) but if you’re big into HDR like me then there is no OS better than Win11 for a quality HDR experience that just works.

But if you’re not into HDR, don’t play games with kernel-level anticheat, and don’t have expensive DJ equipment that is only compatible with Windows and MacOS, then there is no reason to continue using Windows. Linux is a much better option for you.

Because I have ADHD, I have to designate special places for everything to keep them from disappearing.

They still disappear anyway. I don’t fucking get why.

Drives me crazy.

Same but I was 12 at the time so I didn’t think much about the bulb tech nor it’s color temperature. I was just like “wow that’s a bright bulb”.

Later on around 2005 I got my first piece of tech with an OLED screen: a Kenwood car stereo. It wouldn’t be for nearly another 20 years when I finally got my first OLED TV.

I had the GameBoy Color version of the magnifying glass/speaker/fake joystick combo. It ran the speakers and the light off of its own pair of batteries. The speakers were an upgrade (especially for the stereo sound) but everything else was a gimmick. The incandescent bulb was too dim and housing around the screen made it darker and even more difficult to see:

Later on in early 2000s we got the worm light. LED and was powered from the link cable port. It was considerably brighter and hardly affected battery life from what I remember:

We also eventually got magnifying glasses that didn’t have the housing around the screen to darken it:

As someone who used them for over a decade before giving up, I can assure you that dating websites are a complete and utter waste of time. You can’t even get a conversation started, let alone a date.

I highly recommend you do it the natural way: if you see someone you like, ask them out. You are a woman so this is extremely easy for you. Most men can’t even say “hi” to a woman in public, because there are so many shitty men out there harassing women that the good guys don’t even get a chance. So we’re often afraid to say anything because we don’t want women to assume that we’re one of them.You don’t have this problem, so ask away. You’d be surprised by how easily guys will say “yes”.

Fucking thank you. I wish these tired old reddit memes wouldn’t migrate over to Lemmy.

Everyone else is wrong. Yes, even you.

I vibe coded an AutoHotKey script to automate part of my job. It works.

Edit: FWIW you have to pressure it quite a bit to get what you want. One or two prompts usually won’t produce working code on the first attempt. Also you have to understand at least the basics of programing so that you know the right words to enter into the prompt to get the results you desire.

I know but I still wanted to talk about it, so thank you for doing so.

Have a nice evening.

Cool. Thanks for the info

Diameter or circumference? Either way, that’s not really any bigger than either your average jumbo dog, so my point still stands.

Did I misunderstand something? Three hot dogs per person is not an “unreasonable serving size”. One isn’t enough. Two is reasonable, three is large but normal. You don’t start getting unreasonable territory until after around 4-5+ sausages per person, especially with side dishes.

Wait, I thought we hated Shopify? (Cause of the data breach.)

Find a bank that doesn’t charge overdraft fees. If you so happen to live in Colorado or Arizona, FirstBank is a good choice.

Not only are there no fees for anything, they even give you the option to block your card from charging more than your available balance. Card machines will literally only do a partial payment, using whatever is left in your account, allowing you to pay the remaining balance with another form of payment. It works everywhere and is really neat. Find a bank that offers this.

Is non-binary not a form of transgenderism? I honestly do not know.
