- Comment on Viral anti-masturbation app exposed sensitive user data 1 week ago:
I think they use covenant eyes, which sees every web page that you view and analyzes text and pictures on every web page. When there is something flagged as sexual on the web page, it sends a report to your “accountability partner”. Not sure exactly what’s on the report, but safe to assume it shows web address, date, and time that the web page was loaded.
Huge security breach to be on the Speaker’s computer.

I wasn’t going to play it on steam, so I didn’t think to look there. Thank you for sharing the screenshot

Any news when it will fully release? This is just early access release, so they are still working on the game as I understand

Wow, that’s cool! I’ve never even heard of a clock face like this before today. Definitely haven’t seen one, even as a mid-millenial.
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 2 months ago:
To be fair, far away could mean arms reach on the table compared to the squirtable honey containers from the grocery store
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 2 months ago:
Until reading the comments, I didn’t know people actually owned these. I thought it was supposed to look like the stripes of a bee on a stick as a gimmick to sell. But according to the comments, it’s designed that way so you can twirl it if your honey container is far away from where you want to spread the honey to keep from dripping everywhere.
I’ve never seen one of these in real life, whether at home or traveling. I’ve been to almost all 50 states and 10 other countries.

Hopefully management learned from this, given that the sign is probably from 2023 (last time that Dec 23rd and 24th were on Sat/Sun)

I understand that learning left from right is a skill to learn. However, it was rare for a teenager to be unable to distinguish their left from right, unlike today.
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 4 months ago:
It’s an easy way to introduce fractions, especially since it’s common to hear/say it’s a quarter passed 2, half passed 5, and a quarter to 9.
Also teaches multiples, since the numbers on the clock represent multiples of 5.
Helps with directions, clockwise is when the hands spin to the right and counter-clockwise to the left. You’d be amazed how many students can’t tell their left from right.
- Comment on PS6 and next Xbox console are both aiming for 2027 release, separate reports claim | VGC 5 months ago:
I have it set to automatically change to headphones when they’re plugged in and for all audio to go through headphones when they’re plugged in, however the startup music and log in screen music still play through the TV. After logging into a profile, it’ll switch over to headphones for all audio.
I’ve even left my headphones plugged into the controller after manually choosing headphones for all audio and then turning the PS5 off and on again and it pushes startup and login screen music through the TV.
- Comment on Good luck with that 5 months ago:
In the movie, none of them died. Wonka verifies it at his office door when he picks up the mail. Charlie asks about the other kids and Wonka says they’ve been turned back into their terrible nasty selves, but are hopefully wiser for the wear. Wonka then points Charlie and Grandpa Joe to the exit and apologies for not showing them out because he’d already wasted the entire day.
- Comment on PS6 and next Xbox console are both aiming for 2027 release, separate reports claim | VGC 5 months ago:
I never had any long load times on my PS4, usually only about 5-10 seconds. However, I think the 5-10 minute load times for PS2, even when just changing areas in a game made me a lot more patient for Playstation games.
I remember avoiding the save feature on Star Wars Battlefront due to the long time it took to save and hours spent on the PS2 Harry Potter games. Walking through a door would trigger a 5-10 minute wait period and you couldn’t necessarily use that as a bathroom break, because you didn’t want to miss a cutscene.

Not that the PS5 was a major upgrade to the PS4. Sure it can produce some better graphics, but the UI is such a downgrade.
I’ll never understand why they made an option to silence the beep at startup, but they push the boot up and login music through the TV when headphones are connected to a controller. That’s so much more annoying and last so much longer when you’re trying not to disturb other people in the room.

I know that the Rav4 Hybrids have a real hand brake, at least when they first started making them. Not sure about the newest ones.

Did toyota get rid of their hand e-brake? I thought they were one of the few left that still had a manual e-brake.

That makes sense now! Thank you, I was having trouble wrapping my head around it!
- Comment on Who the fuck needs an x axis anyway 5 months ago:
Any clue why there are 2 bars per year grouping?
I thought it was maybe number of cases in each year, but 2000 at the beginning of the graph and when 2000 appears later don’t match.

Yeah, there was too much infighting and incompetence for him to do as much damage in the first term. His cabinet was dropping like flies the first term and we’re almost 8 months in and nobody’s been fired yet

*2016 was the last normal year.
Let’s not forget the chaos and societal upset during the first term.
- Comment on YSK that in several US States, it's illegal to boycott Israel 6 months ago:
It wasn’t meant as a slight to you. It was more a comment on how they worded the law.
Kind of like how the news will turn trumps ramblings into coherent thoughts. We shouldn’t modify the language of poorly written laws to make sense of them. That hurts the people governed by them.
- Comment on YSK that in several US States, it's illegal to boycott Israel 6 months ago:
Don’t put words in the mouth of the law. We have something similar in TX. If you are a government employee you have to agree not to “boycott Israel”. It doesn’t say boycott Israeli products or companies. It says “boycott Israel” itself, so you just can’t say that you’ll never travel there.
- Comment on Checkmate. 7 months ago:
They look at one verse, 2 Timothey 3:16 “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,”
and apply that to the entire Bible, including the letters written to different sects in different cities/regions clarifying rules to keep them from breaking apart. Kinda like from Ghost, they imagine god reaching down and writing through people I guess.

Your calculations are gross income. He should also have to pay Satan his tax, as well as pay for food and housing. With all that, he would have very little saved and take much longer.

- Comment on Why is the progress pride flag so poorly designed (especially the intersex progress pride flag)? Will it be redesigned? 8 months ago:
That’s not actually the original pride flag. That’s the one with 2 mission stripes that were taken away due to cost. The original had turquoise instead of blue and a pink and indigo stripe, so one color more than the rainbow. Rainbows have red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
The 8 striped also symbolized different things. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_flag_(LGBTQ)
I agree with what you’re saying. As they keep adding more things to the flag, it becomes cluttered and harder to see.
