  • How is this Amazon ad anything BUT a trick to get a 7 year old child to get their mitts on dad's phone and charge his credit card $13K in two clicks?

    Jump

  • I don’t see how those statements are incongruent or worthy of being particularly funny. Must be a parent thing I guess.

  • That gives an eternity of time to a mischievous 2yo kid #3 to grab the shiny toy so carelessly dropped without being locked GASP! and then tap not just twice but >100 times.

    See my hand wave remark. I may not have kids but am old enough that a few of my mates are starting. I’ll ask one if he thinks this series of incredibly unlikely events (that ignore lock after time limit, face ID for payment methods, common sense) would work with his child but I suspect the response will be laughter.

    Far more likely is people giving these devices to children inappropriately and them figuring this stuff out rather than kids “mashing buttons” into purchasing things from Amazon. Do appreciate the classic “yOu MuSt NoT hAvE kIDs” response to literally any form of parental criticism though.

  • Maybe dad should have a passcode on his phone and banking apps? Literally no one can “get their mitts” on my phone and use it without my consent short of holding a gun to my head. So many of these parents seem to handwave responsibility from fictional scenarios.

  • What are examples of things that would get you banned on reddit, but is okay on most major instances of Lemmy?

    Jump

  • I’d argue there’s a lot of similarities, since most people left due to Spez and the IPO. I left when Spez and co fucked over the Apollo app dev.

    This excludes the tankie instances. I saw a lot of “death to Israel” and other shit before I filtered those instance that would probably have gotten them nuked on reddit. Stuff like that will be the main differences. Here there isn’t any worry about how marketable the platform is to advertisers. Which is mostly a good thing.

  • What was going on in England in the 1970s to give Monty Python so much comedy fodder that is still relevant today?

    Jump

  • “Disney has gone woke”.

    Meanwhile Mary Poppins (made in the 60’s) straight up has a banger song “sister suffragette” and signs for women’s suffrage in it.

  • With Elvanse, I'm Joe Biden on speed

  • Lisdex for me works pretty well. Though I still need to make an effort to structure and plan thing out well. Worth talking to your doctor about, a dose change may be required. My GP mentioned the usual starting dose is commonly not sufficient but from understanding it’s mostly for helping with executive functioning stuff (procrastination as you mention); not really for improving memory. The votes are probably due to comparisons to senility and unnecessary reference to Biden as an aside.

    It FEELS even worse than before, but I think that is because doing more means more error, more senile.

    Still, even if it would stay like this, my life would have changed for the better.

    These statements are also contradictory but the last one, if factual, is like worth focusing. These drugs aren’t “fix all”; lifestyle management (diet, sleep, etc) is still required.

  • [Crowbcat] Dad, how was Call of Duty before?

    Jump

  • Damn I think I played 2019 and still the first couple minutes were near unrecognisable. I mean make your money but boy, what a stark contrast.

    Also as much as it isn’t for me, the cell shaded bit looks awesome as does just yeeting enemies into the stratosphere.

    Should we give children nicotine?

    Jump

  • Way more teenagers smoke than people realise. I’m not saying it’s a coincidence, I’m saying it has nothing to do with the “flavours”. To claim otherwise without proof is moronic and feeding into propaganda perpetuated by governments to outlaw vapes because dummies always fall for the “think of the children” nonsense.

    Jump

  • Or, radical concept, because adults like those flavours too. What, the second you hit 18 you hated anything fruit flavoured? Strawberry flavoured vodka is to entice children?

  • Dude really forgot most of Korea's male population have military training

  • Lmao. “Understandable, have a nice day sir”.

  • Yeah feels that way. The hand up feels more like he’s with a sparring partner than “enemy of the state”. He’s got a rifle slung and doesn’t feel like he even thinks the protester will go for it. Pretty level headed by all involved including the guy conducting the ol’ spineroo.

  • I mean props to him seemed like he was “wow yeah, fair enough”. In “other” countries that protester would have been beaten into a coma.

  • You’re most welcome, I only know beyond the click bait you mentioned because some YouTuber was transparent about learning how to make thumbnails for that purpose (maybe funhaus back in the day).

  • Aren’t immigrants different to “aliens”?? Immigrants, you know, immigrated. Aliens are people who are citizens of another country still and not in a given country legally from my limited understanding.

  • There are thumbnail “trends” that lead to videos performing better algorithms wise and this matches it. That and the stupid face the centre guy is pulling leads me to agree with the other commenter.

  • Remember: the SUX 3141 Ti is 60% slower than the SUX 3141 Xt. because it's 5 years older and has no components in common.

  • Fortunately there are resources that make a good starting point because I agree; naming schemes are a shit show. I generally start with this and go from there research wise. https://www.logicalincrements.com/

  • As much as I don’t object to the “take your pills” sledge probably best to leave it be inferred rather than calling someone that. Just my (critically devalued) 2c.

    Edit: Welp there goes my retirement fund.
