- Comment on Do you celebrate Halloween? If so, what are you planning for it? 1 year ago:
For my partner and I, I’m gonna make black and green spaghetti (low carb noodles made of black beans and edamami) with pasta sauce, and meatballs that look kinda like eyeballs (meatballs coated with melted mozzarella, then topped with a sliced green olive olive and pimento middle). I’m hoping shredded parm will add a slightly maggoty touch. I might also throw some candy at kids from my third floor window… haven’t decided yet.
- Comment on Amazon, Tripadvisor and other companies team up to battle fake reviews while FTC seeks to ban them 1 year ago:
Yrs ago this would have (foolishly) increased my trust in the companies, but I’ve long since learned that companies building a “coalition” doesn’t mean squat unless it’s actually utilized to create positive change.

- Comment on Not even the ghost of obsolescence can coerce users onto Windows 11 1 year ago:
Because Windows 11’s primary new feature is SOC level DRM.
Can you please what this means in idiot proof terms?

Can someone please explain to me how the first amendment argument is valid here? I read the article, and I still don’t get it.
- Comment on Image uploads are now disabled on lemm.ee due to malicious users 1 year ago:
Thank you for the efforts you are making. This is a serious situation; more than just dealing with bad actors, you are viewing traumatic images.
Please, for your sanity and well being, prioritize your self care. Things like this linger in the psyche much longer than you would expect.

Thank you. I don’t have any eye irtitation/bug bite. The question just came to me when 'squitoes were being a nuisance.

- Comment on [HN] Google Maps is a critical dependency for nutrition facts on mcdonalds.com 1 year ago:
Most “nutrition facts” are based on “serving size” which is completely arbitrary, and can differ between locations (especially between countries). The FDA offer some recommendations for serving sizes in the US, but they are just that… recommendations. Companies are going to use this inconsistency to their ultimate advantage.

- Comment on What show took you the longest to get into? 1 year ago:
The Office
I never watched much TV, and ignored the hype. Then I tried season 1 while on Netflix, and was bored. Recently I skipped season 1, and really got hooked mid-season 2. Now I have my mom and aunt hooked.

- Comment on Robbing Delivery Robots Is Now a Thing 1 year ago:
I don’t want to rob it; I want to turn it on its side, put it in a box, put a tiny tire boot on it.

On the surface this sounds like it really could be a blessing, but is there a downside not explained in the article?
- Comment on Apple already shipped attestation on the web, and we barely noticed 1 year ago:
After a big Firefox update last year, Chase kept telling me they wouldn’t allow acces via “outdated” web browsers, then redirected me to download another browser which included Firefox. This went on for several months until Chase finally updated themselves. During that time, if I wanted to access my account I had to use a different browser.
Yes, this was temporary, but another issue I have is Firefox on my Samsung phone. I am not tech savvy; I do my best to protect myself, but past the basic protections I am overwhelmed.
I would LOVE to use Firefox on my phone instead of Chrome, but every time I have tried, Firefox has been slow as fuck as compared to Chrome; slow enough to be practically unusable. I never found a solution and ended up going back to chrome while trying to adjust all my phone/browser settings to request as much respect and privacy as possible.
- Comment on has lemmy.world been going down these past few days or is it the app I use? 1 year ago:
My list of blocked porn communities is more than double my list of subscribed communities; reblocking would be the biggest pill.
