  • I used mine 3 days ago. Admittedly, it had probably been a few years since the last time that tray opened, but all was good!

  • Unrelated, but you have any rabbits I could pet?

  • Run run, fast as you can...

  • Whelp, gonna have that song stuck in my head for days.

  • In the US, $ comes before a number, and ¢ comes after. It helps differentiate them at a glance. $1.50 or 75¢ You only use one symbol at a time.

    Not all that many uses for the ¢ left these days, I suppose.

  • Certain ants are pretty distinct. Thatch ants spray formic acid as a defense, and will have a sour smell (and taste, or so I've been told). Odoriferous house ants are named so for obvious reason, and smell (to me) like pen ink. Assuming they taste terrible, but I dunno anyone who's tasted one.

    Also, for what it's worth, my entomologist father refers to the thread's subject as "sow bugs", so that's how I know them, but pill bugs and rolly polly are common here.

  • I was gonna say I think I liked reddit more before the digg folks came. Maybe Lemmy is right where it should be.

  • Tried to order pizza but it got Noided

  • That's a wild time to invest in phone booths!

    Real answer is dialup modem speeds. Doubled our download (in my case, from 10 minutes per mb to 5 minutes!)

  • Wait, so you do or do not remember the excitement of going from 14.4 to 33.6 for dialup?

  • Spotify supports this already (between any devices you're logged into), and it's suuuuuuuuuuuper nice. This is gonna be an excellent QoL upgrade.

  • If you shop at a chain megacorp store, there's probably like 10 layers of people you'd have to pass the info up to, which seems unlikely. Maybe better looking for customer feedback forms in person or online.

    If you shop at a local independent, they either don't do this sort of charity thing, or do it much more directly (as in the money doesn't even flow through their own account) with a local charity or food bank, that sort of thing.

  • On a related note, does anyone know of cases with a headphone jack built into it? It seems like an obvious thing to make, but I've only seen them mentioned for iPhone.

  • The main thing for me is simply that the audio connector doesn't pull out nearly as easily as USB-c. Secondary is the fact that I prefer things that don't need to be charged.

    I use wireless buds at work, but whenever I'm home, I prefer to use wired headphones. It's definitely a different strokes for different folks situation.

  • Chicken just isn't gonna need to be that precise. It's not an ingredient that mixes with others in that way. That being said, chicken is an item that most recipes would mention by weight. Nobody is going to actually weigh out the chicken; they'll just go with a close measurement, or use potentially use the packaging it came in for reference.

  • Pretty sure the lens flare was just added in photoshop. As far as the "tele lens" goes, I think that's just a semantics thing. I agree that shooting straight into the sun like that would make it impossible to get that exposure.

  • I'm curious what game. My feeling is it must be something with a constantly changing economy?

  • Curious what would have happened if you just stopped at $30 up (also remember, $ before the number; ¢ after)

    Was the $30 paid into your account, or in the form of a check or something?

  • Make any VHS highlight reels?

    How come I'm seeing "removed" all over the place?

    I gather some server is for some arcane reason censoring naughty words to protect our delicate sensibilities. Is it on my end, on lemmy.ml? Is it the server people are posting from? Is it something happening in the federation? Is it the Romulans?

    Class Tuning Incoming – 28 June

    As a side, it might be nice to eventually have a pvp-centric community, but for now I feel like this falls under WoW general discussion.

    GL to all those warlocks out there, and the healer that love them.
