- Comment on Widespread Cloudflare outage blamed on mysterious traffic spike 1 day ago:
I had fully forgotten the phrase “you’ll tie up the phone line!” And I just had a nam style flashback of sneaking internet time during the day when my mom was at work, and praying that no one tried to call

- Comment on A brain transplant is one of those rare cases where you’d rather be the donor than the recipient. 1 week ago:
You say that, but if the alternative is a completely paralyzed body stuck in a bed 24/7, with sores on your back, ass, and thighs, and no recourse? I’d take rectal itch and tooth rot. If I can afford a brain transplant in the US healthcare system, I can afford dentures and a calamine enema
- Comment on Breakthrough gel can regenerate tooth enamel within weeks 1 week ago:
“We shouldn’t be setting bones and giving people casts. Just imagine how much more reckless people will be if they don’t have the threat of deformity and lifelong pain!”
Let people have nice teeth, even if maybe they didn’t take the greatest care or them as young folks, or grew up eating highly acidic foods or drinking soda.

Outrageous! What’s the link so I can make sure I never see it?

What’s the draw to piefed? I’m not sure I understand. How is it different from Lemmy?

My mom’s favorite teaching quote was “it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and erase all doubt”
- Comment on Just FYI 2 weeks ago:
That’s me in person. Online I’m more likely to offer an opinion on a subject, with a caveat that I’m willing to be corrected. In person, if I speak up, it’s because I am either 100% correct, or I have every reason to believe I am. I don’t open my trap unless I am positive I know the answer.

Instantly got it! One of my favorites. But it makes me sad that not everyone has scream-sang this going down the road with their loved ones. It’s a great experience
- Comment on And what car did you learn in? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve got a 1978 J10. There’s just something about jeep trucks. Absolutely love em.
- Comment on Getting Taco Bell 3 weeks ago:
It’s pretty decent! It’s not what I’d choose to be doing, but honestly I like it. If I were in a vehicle they comped some of the repairs on, and not worried about the 1099 at the end of the year, I’d be cool with doing it full time.
- Comment on Getting Taco Bell 3 weeks ago:
Oh it is absolutely a rip-off, even moreso than a normal job. Plus calculating in gas, mileage, wear and tear, higher insurance premiums, and a 1099 to pay taxes at the end of the year in a lump sum instead of receiving a refund… It’s fucked all around. But right now, desperation is the name of the game.
- Comment on Getting Taco Bell 3 weeks ago:
Not sure; I just started doing it about 2 weeks. It’s my only source of income right now. In the town I’m in, I can typically make 20-30 dollars in a night (4ish hours), earn by time isn’t available here. But in Knoxville, I can make between 1-2 hundred in a night in the same amount of time. It just takes a 45 minute drive to get there
- Comment on Getting Taco Bell 3 weeks ago:
I switched to the earn by time thing on Dasher because of the waits at Taco bells. It’s insane. I spent an hour waiting on two orders the other day, one of which was 3 cheese wraps and a Baja blast, and the other was just like some fucking tacos and a burrito. It was absolutely unreasonable. But hey, dash by time, I got paid like 15 bucks for standing there scrolling through Lemmy

Most people on Lemmy, maybe. The smart watches are popular as shit, as far as I’ve seen. I rarely see someone without one out in public

Can someone tell me what darvo tactics mean? Or tell me if I just don’t want to know. I’d Google it, but OP mentioned CP and if it’s related to that, I don’t want to Google it :(

- Comment on Artificial Neurons Communicate Directly With Living Cells 4 weeks ago:
Honestly? Terrifying. Not to get all "mark of the beast"y or anything like that, but they’re not going to have to force us to get brain-computer interface chips, people are going to line up for them and pay for it willingly. And then after a while, actual thought crimes become a real thing. I don’t want to live in a world where I have to worry about the encryption level of my brain. I don’t want Dear Leader, whoever that may be at the time, knowing if I like them.
10 years ago, this would have exited the hell out of me. Now? All I can think about is how fucking terrifying it is.

Oh, I thought my app was glitching out! Lol. That’s why I thought the account was deleted in my first reply!
Yeah, I remember you! What’s going on? Everytime we’ve spoken has been very fun for me haha
I love the small town vibe Lemmy has sometimes, it’s so nice seeing that interaction across communities, instead of solely confined to a single sub, y’know?
