They changed that a couple years ago, right? I think that was when I quit.
- Comment on Google Says iPhone Adoption Of RCS Has Led Users To Share 'More Than A Billion' Messages Daily, Yet SMS/MMS Still Reign Supreme In The U.S. 2 weeks ago:
I’ve used Pixel phones since they were called Nexus, and it was fun for a minute, but I had too many unexplained issues with RCS and eventually just disabled it. Nowadays, the people I text with most frequently are on Signal. For a variety of reasons, I’ve shifted to giving people my Google Voice number rather than my “real” number, and Voice doesn’t support RCS. So even if I wanted to use RCS, it’s not even an option for most conversations.

Same, but lying on my left side, so the mattress?

I also most definitely heard about a similar experiment years ago using lipstick.
- Comment on Philosophy moment 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, I really don’t understand what changed or why. By the time I was in high school, pretty much everyone had a cell phone, but they’d get confiscated if they went off in class or we were caught using them during school hours, and that included all break periods. I remember a teacher threatening to take my phone away when I was using my phone to call my dad for a ride home after I had finished my exams for the day. For high school kids, I could see arguments on both sides for whether they should be allowed during breaks, but definitely not during class periods.
Things were a little more flexible in college, but they were still expected to be silent, and some professors would ask you to leave the class if your phone went off or was otherwise causing a distraction.
- Comment on A reminder that the majority of anti-Reddit *hardliners* went back crawling to Reddit like the bitches they are 1 month ago:
Ditto. My original account was on kbin.social, so it’s not like I even have the option to use it anymore. I’m sure plenty of people started out on one of the big, general instances, then eventually moved elsewhere.

Dr. Grip. I love the “shake to advance” thing and the huge, squishy grip.
- Comment on Differences between humans and AI: Why The CAPTCHA May Be The Ultimate Battleground Between AI And Humans. 2 months ago:
Pretty much. I was going to buy some shit from a non-Amazon online vendor, then got a captcha on checkout and just left. Saved me some money I guess.
- Comment on Kill your Feeds - Stop letting algorithms dictate how you think 2 months ago:
A bit of a random question: on a single user instance, if you subscribe to a community, then later unsubscribe from it, would that community still show up in your All feed?
