My ex GF bought me those and they were great for the first 12 months then they both deformed.
- Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break 2 weeks ago:
Help you keep the shape when sliding the foot in, especially in nicer shoes.
- Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break 2 weeks ago:
No. I just have large feet. All my shoes are in great condition and the reason I use a shoehorn is to protect the backs.

As brutal as it is to say, people like that have forfeited any determination on their future once they commit such an antisocial act.
- Comment on Does anyone speak hairdresser? I need help communicating. 6 months ago:
The only barber that was ever able to cut my insane hair passed away after an unsuccessful liver transplant and it was at that point I purchased my own professional clippers.
Having bad haircuts my whole life until I found her is literally a point of trauma that I’ve not recovered from and I’m 49 years old now.
- Comment on Why there are 861 roguelike deckbuilders on Steam all of a sudden 6 months ago:
Why is everybody saying slay the spire pioneered the genre when it’s a clone of others?
- Comment on Do our moderators have the integrity of overcooked pasta or is it more like warm jello? 7 months ago:
It’s time to ban this person.
- Comment on How do you fix a broken Sega Saturn memory cartridge? 7 months ago:
The same way you fix a car, first you figure out what’s wrong, then you fix it.
- Comment on In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is? 7 months ago:
I don’t even understand the question, really.
- Comment on Is the combined knowledge of humanity safer than it has ever been? 7 months ago:
I think we’d be fucked, basically.
- Comment on What are your favorite Dreamcast games? 7 months ago:
I gave up on DoDonPachi. Same thing, 20 years of just grinding and sticking with it, even did the classic “final final true boss has one hit point and I choke” move.
Now I’m 49, my reactions will never be what they were when I was younger, the dream is over.
- Comment on Is the combined knowledge of humanity safer than it has ever been? 7 months ago:
I have a feeling it is all-but-guaranteed that most of the world’s digital knowledge will be erased overnight during the next event such as this one…
Check out the Carrington Event of 1859.

It’s like you didn’t read the article, and are specifically focusing on a one-dimensional argument while you can conveniently ignore the greater issues at play.
Go and read your own comments, in fact go read the article, and please try to come back with some meaningful thoughts.

Okay so NASA lost a $327 million Mars probe because said was transmitting trajectory corrections in the SI Units of Newton-Seconds, but the home base software was interpreting and calculating it as Pound Seconds.
Remembering that there was endless amounts of scientific equipment aboard that took years to make, and the whole enchilada took 10 months traveling through space before it could even crash.
- Comment on Judge rules YouTube, Facebook and Reddit must face lawsuits claiming they helped radicalize a mass shooter | CNN Business 7 months ago:
I just would like to show something about Reddit. Below is a post I made about how Reddit was literally harassing and specifically targeting me, after I let slip in a comment one day that I was sober - I had previously never made such a comment because my sobriety journey was personal, and I never wanted to define myself or pigeonhole myself as a “recovering person”.
I reported the recommended subs and ads to Reddit Admins multiple times and was told there was nothing they could do about it.
I posted a screenshot to DangerousDesign and it flew up to like 5K+ votes in like 30 minutes before admins removed it. I later reposted it to AssholeDesign where it nestled into 2K+ votes before shadow-vanishing.
Yes, Reddit and similar are definitely responsible for a lot of suffering and pain at the expense of humans in the pursuit of profit. After it blew up and front-paged, “magically” my home page didn’t have booze related ads/subs/recs any more! What a totally mystery how that happened /s
The post in question, and a perfect “outing” of how Reddit continually tracks and tailors the User Experience specifically to exploit human frailty for their own gains.

I quit drinking years ago and I reported every ad explaining that I am no longer their target market and the ads are literally dangerous to me. They were gone within a few weeks - haven’t seen a booze ad in 5+ years.

AI told me 76C/170F is ideal for hot tub water temperature.
Sure no problem. Once I get used to that I’ll work my way up to boiling peanut oil.
- Comment on Do straight lines and flat planes exist in nature? 7 months ago:
You’re talking to somebody that studies particle physics okay.
- Comment on Do straight lines and flat planes exist in nature? 7 months ago:
Simple answer: no
- Comment on Do straight lines and flat planes exist in nature? 7 months ago:
They don’t, although they do not interact with other particles, they obey move as waves, like all other energy in the universe.
- Comment on Why don't we hear more about the 2017 Las Vegas shooting? It was the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, we never found a motive, and it seems no one ever mentions it. 7 months ago:
I feel like most horror movies are preying on deep psychological fears of things that don’t or won’t happen, or happen only in the deepest fears of the psyche.
The concept of just leaving your house to get some turnips and getting shot in the face is like a daily thing for every American, so I’m not sure that makes for good psychological horror.
- Comment on Physical or Digital? 7 months ago:
I can log on to anybody’s computer in the world, install Steam, and have full access to my entire game library.
I can make almost anybody I know (with limits) a “family member” and share my library.
I can stream my games from my computer to my phone.
My steam deck lets me play my entire library anywhere.
I see no personal benefit to using physical media anymore.

Since the concept of God is unique to each individual, and totally irrational, and basically non-existent in an objective sense, the answer would be no.
- Comment on Reddit introduces a new ad format that looks similar to posts made by users | TechCrunch 7 months ago:
“If your username was a username, how username would username username?”
They’re here.
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
That can’t even be denied at this point. There was a small window before the Reddit API fiasco and everybody showed up here to post the same rat-shit they gobble over there. I had a mini-freakout over a “If your username was a username, what would username username username username?” type question in AskLemmy or something.
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
It’s been like one of those long running soap operas.
For at least the last 5 years “today’s” front page is nearly indistinguishable from “yesterday’s”.
You can disappear for 6 months and come back and it’s exactly the same. You’ve missed nothing.
Orange man bad, fascism bad, phobia bad, sexism bad, racism bad, bosses suck, inflation sucks, boomers suck, ooh a celebrity! Celebrity dead so sad.
- Comment on Are people in the stock photos real? 8 months ago:
Bill Lastname, Cardholder
… Is also a real person, credit card companies specifically pay people to license their name for stock card shots, so that no one can sue them.
- Comment on Reddit wants to raise $748M with IPO, sets value at $6.4B 8 months ago:
That whole “niche communities” thing never rang true for me. I mean sure, if you like cast iron you can go to the cast iron community. And see 9000 pictures of cast iron pans and people freaking out about cast iron. Or cooking… and you have to listen to THOUSANDS of recommendations for air fryers but not cooking.
The “communities” system never worked from the word go. The site content should have been organized with weighted tags.
