Samsung has even cut most of the horseshit out. My S22 had like a few Samsung apps, they live in a folder and I never see them. But that is similar to all of the Apple apps you couldn’t remove either (don’t know if that’s changed, haven’t had an iPhone since the 4)
Yea, like that would ever in literally any possible incarnation of any possible existence where Apple is a thing happen. Totally.
Iirc he said he planned to ban imported electric cars, so Musk is free to gobble that tiny orange mushroom shaped dick. Need to go do a heroic dose of mushrooms and delete those neural connections now.
It’s weirdly cyclical. I remember around when the original Dead Space came out (early iirc) they were acting pretty decently for EA.
I went from years of Pixels to an S22Ultra. The only hard part was that the app drawer is paged instead of scrolling. I just ignore everything Samsung/Bixby and never see it. Seems fine 🤷♀️
“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
Sounds similar to my experience, but I was told multiple times by my GP that it was really bad heart burn. He held that line for 8ish months until I had an attack so bad I drove myself to the ER at 2am (the morning they caught the Boston Marathon bombers, watching the coverage rocking in pain in an ER waiting room is a core memory now).
When I finally got seen I said I felt bad that it was just bad heart burn, so they gave me liquid pepcid and left me alone for 10 minutes. When they came back to check on me, I was obviously still in pain so they pressed around my abdomen and as soon as they hit the area near my gallbladder I almost jumped off the gurney.
30 minutes later I had an ultrasound, and I was extremely pregnant with gallstones and it was on the verge of rupturing. I was in surgery a couple hours later.
All of this to say, if you or anyone you know who had their gallbladder removed and are now having horrible GI issues (especially after first meal of the dag) talk to your GP about Cholestyramine. It’s for cholesterol, but it’s binds to and neutralizes stomach bile which is getting dumped into your upper intestine since there’s not the buffer of your gallbladder anymore. Utterly changed my life years after surgery, could finally go out to eat breakfast without worrying about shitting my pants. Ironically it was the doctor who misdiagnosed me who finally recommended it when I started seeing him again (moved away like 6mo after surgery, boomeranged back years later.
I have a friend who works in the R* office in Massachusetts. The whole fucking company sounds like an abject nightmare to work for. Between the Stasi-esque HR lady that wanders around making notes of who is at their desks, to the legions of indoctrinated kool-aid drinkers, onto the just bizarre behind the scenes decisions and poor management.
He’s been dreading this announcement for a while now, and it may just be the one thing that will rip the scales off the otherwise creepily loyal workers.
Sounds like my Unifi experience with the old CloudKeys that liked to brick themselves if the wind blew in a way they disliked. Everything still ran fine, but I couldn’t manage any of it till I factory reset it all. I think it ran like that for 3mo before I could be bothered 😅
Everyone else has the serious threads of conversation handled, I’m just here to ask if it was entirely necessary to say “quarter-center ago” about something that to a lot of people wasn’t THAT long ago. I was in highschool. Going to go oil my creaky joints now.
Love my scrap metal with a nice healthy layer of hydrazine.
I used to haul my four wheeler around in the back of my mom’s town and country in high school. It was crazy easy to load and unload since the rear deck was so low. Just pulled the seats out, put a tarp down, setup the ramps and pushed it in since it was such a shallow angle. Worked great, did it a couple dozen times.
Minivans are more useful utility vehicles than most modern trucks and I’ll die on this hill. The bed height on modern trucks alone is kind bogglingly idiotic.
I’d love something between an Astrovan and a traditional minivan.
Repeal CAFE standards, or just delete the entire catagory of “light truck”. If it doesn’t have a bed, its not a fucking truck. This entire fucked situation is literally just automakers not wanting to be bothered to make fuel efficient cars when you can call everything a fucking truck and be mostly exempt from having to comply with the far stricter regulations around smaller passenger vehicles MPG standards.
And the automakers give zero shits since they make so much more selling these larger utterly pointless vehicles rather than smaller, more economical ones.
Yea, I got stuck in this horseshit. I was stranded in Baltimore Airport for roughly 24hrs. One of the worst experiences of my life. It was freezing fucking cold and I was dressed lightly. The only reason it was even semi tolerable is because I live in New England, I felt awful for my fellow travelers that were huddling under whatever they had on them when their flights were canceled.
My actual saviour in the whole thing was Amtrak. I was able to get a train out from Bmore straight back to PVD where my car was parked (TFGreen). Honestly, if I could take a train and it be the same price I would do it over planes 100% of the time even with 4x travel times. It was wonderful, I could get up and walk around, had a nice (microwaved) breakfast for not exorbitant prices, the seats were comfy for the entire 6-8hr ride.
The worst part was standing in a line for literally 3hrs to talk to SW agent that could do literally nothing.
And I really fucking glad Southwest has to do something, but this should have been an event that forced THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY to modernize. Since this happened I have seen countless videos explaining how the backend of all these airlines is basically on par with telegrams technology wise and the whole thing is shoestrings and prayers that keeps it together and working interoperably.
Yea I had to scroll down to the review pictures, I seriously thought I was going crazy over what is a super simple thing lol
Am I crazy or is the example picture of the interlock backwards. Both sides can be turned on, but only one can be off at the same time 😅
And maybe some kind of memorable accessory? Gloves are cool, let’s go with gloves.
That shade of red looks weirdly like the Photoshop element selector overlay thing
QNAP at least used to make pretty powerful NASs. I had one with an older Xeon in it that I bought in like 2015 that at the time crushed Plex streaming. Not sure if they still do, I also moved to Unraid and will never look back, it’s exactly what I need and none of what I don’t (literally, raid. Don’t care about IOPs).
Actually ran Unraid on the Xeon QNAP for a year or so before building my own box.
Omg the McDonald’s Angus burgers were FIRE. I ate wayyyy too many of the Bacon and Cheese ones and occasionally the Mushroom. I even loved they got put in their boxes with the paper burger holders LIKE EVERY BURGER FUCKING SHOULD.
