There was a time in the long ago times when it was a really good, customer focused service that didn’t have all of the issues it has today. It then of course got worse every year like everything else but now many people use it out of habit or addiction.
Yeah, I think the main thing that makes intermittent fasting effective is exactly this. I don’t believe that there’s anything magical about eating in a time window in itself but not taking in those extra little snacks that all add up is big.
Hah, same. Made an account awhile ago and this made me check to see how things are going in Lemmy land.
Dang, that’s quite a few people. Maybe we can stop linking our identity to a simple number in the US sometime? That would be swell.
I pay for Premium now since it includes music streaming which is convenient to use. If they raise the price too much, I’ll absolutely just go back to mp3s and deal with the ads on YouTube and just watch less content on there. $15 is about my cap before I do that.
Just got the Pixel 6a when it was super cheap for Prime Day because my Note 9 was acting up even after a factory reset and wouldn’t hold a charge for the day. I love it. It does everything I need a phone to do and is zippy fast. I don’t see myself every spending a lot of money on a phone again unless it has some revolutionary new feature… but I think those days are over. If this line stays affordable and high quality, I’ll probably go for another with my next phone too
Aside from all kinds of recipes I make pretty regularly (buffalo cauliflower, green bean fries, homemade pizza rolls and jalapeno poppers, etc.) I also regularly use it to heat frozen food or leftover pizza, to thaw bread, to roast vegetables… Tonight I used it to cook the protein I was making for an asian dish while I stir fried the veggies and made the sauce.
Huge variety of options. Maybe watch some YouTube videos of quick recipes and get inspired!
I try explaining this to fellow Americans that you end up paying much less in the end and never have the stress of how you’re going to afford this stuff (or possibly even lose everything to a sudden health problem) but it falls on deaf ears if they’ve already been brainwashed. They refuse to hear that other countries have things figured out to make the lives of their citizens much more enjoyable.
Only been here a day but the main thing I’ve noticed so far is that the user base reminds me of the old days of Digg and Reddit. Nobody downvoting comments for no good reason, nobody being needlessly hostile or starting shit. I’ll enjoy it while it lasts.
Does it do a good job on ear hair? I’ve tried multiple groomers that get the nose hair well enough but every one of them has been trash at getting the ear hair so I’ve resorted to plucking it.
This is one of my biggest fears in life. Bugs creep me the hell out, I already have sleeping troubles, and I know I’d be wrecked by little bastards biting me in bed.
I can’t believe nobody has come up with a simple solution to this yet.
I find that I use it pretty much every day for one thing or another, so mine has earned permanent counter residence. I’ll probably buy a much fancier one when this one kicks the bucket.
One of my life purposes is converting people to The Way of Bidet. I have bought over a dozen as gifts for people and pretty much anybody who is actually willing to install it and try it loves it and hopefully converts others in turn. Clearly superior to wiping in terms of hygiene, saving money on TP, and not irritating the bum.
So happy I read this thread. Had it setup in no time and will be cancelling all of my streaming services. $30/year for this is pretty incredible.
Always been a fan of subtitles once a game series has too many entries. I’m especially not fond of publishers calling games the same name as one previously released unless it’s a substantial reboot decades later.
Far too much of a snob to watch those icky YIFY movies with all of their artifacts.
Yeah, gotta kind of see if Lemmy catches on before investing that kind of money. I’d be much more likely to toss them $20 or something more reasonable
It does feel nice feeling home again after years of using Sync though. That official Reddit app is so clumsy.
I specifically remember canceling a few months ago but they decided to just charge me for another year anyways. It’s a total mystery to me.
