For me the only thing I look in new phones now is camera quality, since I only take photos and video with my phone. If that was upgradeable, it would be awesome. Plus, now even Android is getting the Apple treatment this year, everything is just getting shittier.

I had a homemade edible once and was explicitly told to take only half because it was strong. It had 0 effect. Years later I visited Amsterdam and decided to try again. The guy told me to only take a quarter for starters. I followed the instructions, but again felt nothing, so I ended up eating over half. Well, this time it actually did work. Awful experience. I was blacking out, super paranoid, super nauseous and dizzy. 0/10 would not do again, lol.

Japanese English textbooks can be very wrong, very hilarious and very strange at times, so who knows.

I’m sorry to disappoint.

I deployed several docker containers using an image from this one guy. Later when I needed help with an image I realized the support is provided exclusively through a Discord server. To nobody’s surprise the guy is an asshole who shouldn’t interact with users.

Yeah, I get the guilt. I, too, had it when I was unemplyoed and wasn’t financially independent.
- Comment on Just say the word 4 weeks ago:
I know a few stay at home partners/spouses and all act the same: highly demanding and think they’re better than everyone else because their partners are high earners despite never achieving anything in life. That’s why it personally gives me the ick. Kudos to anyone who is in that situation, but doesn’t act entitled.

How do people feel about stay at home spouses without kids? Is that something that is generally frowned upon?
- Comment on Neocities deindexed from Bing 5 weeks ago:
Mojeek was a huge miss for me. Search results were mostly irrelevant to my search queries. I’ve yet to find any search engine that isn’t trash, though.
- Comment on Tacos for dinner 5 weeks ago:
I’d say “Mexican” food sucks in most European countries. I had exactly what you had in several places here. The only thing I’ve ever had that I could call real Mexican food was the tacos I ate from a food stand made by an actual Mexican in Netherlands.

On a serious note, I know someone who had a corrective surgery as a teen to “fix” his ears, and I genuinely think he looked better before. Now his other uneven facial features come in focus much more. Sometimes it just doesn’t make things better.

What are you even talking about? They both acquired it over Jure Sanguinis, both of them barely understand any Italian. They have dual Italian citizenship.
Nobody said anything about needing ancestors to live somewhere else.
- Comment on What common American habits do people find quietly annoying? 1 month ago:
It’s not quite the same, but I know someone who acquired Italian citizenship because their grandparents were Italian/had Italian citizenship. They don’t even speak Italian.
- Comment on The Wall People 1 month ago:
At that point you count on either extended family support (or both sets of grandparents), older kids to take care of the younger siblings or for kids to fend for themselves. One kid is a lot if you don’t have family support, let alone 2 or more. Definitely to each their own, but I could never (especially as the person ij the relationship who would be popping those kids out).
- Comment on The Wall People 1 month ago:
I had a classmate who was the youngest of 10. Always smelled bad, but otherwise an okay kid. I think the family was poor. Not surprising, having had to feed 12 people. I wonder how many of them have had kids of their own by now and if any chose to have many or none at all.

::: spoiler spoiler like this? ::: - Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
At least according to Wikipedia, the original The One Horse Open Sleigh was possibly intended as a drinking song. That’s also what I heard from someone I know, so that’s what stuck with me.
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
Jingle Bells was originally drinking song, not related to Christmas at all.

Maybe it’s a joke because we’re in the shitposting community, but on the serious note COVID19 pandemic is very much not over. Fatality rate is lower, but people still get COVID and millions have and are going to get long COVID and other lasting effects of the infection.

Yes, h. pylori can be the cause of ulcers, but it also affects many other things.
- Comment on It's nothing 2 months ago:
Obviously you should talk to your doctor about it, but as someone who’s been dealing with different health issues/symptoms, it could be many things. The ones that aren’t directly likened to heart issues, off the top of my head: various stomach issues (gastritis, GERD/acid reflux, h. pylori infection), vagus nerve issues (sometimes caused by stomach problems) that trigger anxiety and panic attacks, costochondritis, even things like mental trauma response can cause wild physical symptoms.
- Comment on Microsoft spent two years and $1B developing the Kin mobile phone line, which failed after just 48 days in 2010(May 14-June 30) due to poor sales. They blamed Verizon for not promoting it enough 2 months ago:
I do and don’t at the same time. I loved the classic hardware T9, but it gave me carpal tunnel.
- Comment on Thousands march in Zagreb against far right 2 months ago:
I’m utterly shocked people in my home country are finally showing up in the streets. Croatians have been quite passive for decades, letting our politicians rob us blind. Thompson can go fuck himself, but so can all the people I personally know who went to his concert. It’s genuinely pathetic.
