Sourcing isn’t even the problem, just having to reformat everything all the time because Word (which I have to use) is a bitch is the annoying part

Currently preparing to write my Bachelor thesis, the format and template I need to use were last revised in 2009, I am going to lose all joy while writing, I can already tell
- Comment on Menstruation cycle tracking app breached users' privacy, B.C. class-action lawsuit alleges 8 months ago:
Periods are never properly explained in school, a lot of people simply get taught by their mother, or survive with what little knowledge the biology textbook holds about them.
I cannot blame someone for not knowing how awfully complicated they are, when school at most teaches about the ideal period, not even mentioning how much can affect them, or how awful they can be for some people.

Period’s are awful to keep track of yourself, it’s not a perfect, “every 4 weeks for 5 days” thing. Those apps actually recalculate the beginning and end of a period when something abnormal happens, like stress moving the period back a few days. This way you don’t need to keep it in a personal calendar, which mind you, a lot of people don’t even have.
Btw, most apps do also more than just regular tracking, they can predict how bad blod flow will be, and if your periods are known to be rather painful, they can keep track and remind you when a day comes on which you’d need to pack a few extra painkillers.
- Comment on Lemmy Active Users looking good 8 months ago:
Don’t forget that Reddit was made up of 90% lurkers, and less than 1% of active posters, the rest would comment but rarely post themselves. These numbers are great if we keep those statistics in mind

The biggest crime is in my opinion that Android as an OS was made without allowing the user root access unless they jump through a bunch of hoops. Even if it comes at the cost of a bricked phone, kids should be allowed to experiment with their devices.
Also, from my experience basic graphic design is the newest version of this. The amount of praise I get for understanding basic color theory, as well as not to use JPGs, or Comic Sans for everything is wild.

Take a guess on why people still complain about RAM in the current days of 16Gb being one of the cheapest options
- Comment on Music Piracy Is Back, Baby 9 months ago:
Partially yeah, but atleast Google Drive and Onedrive still have folders to sort and share more than one file, which sometimes gets the kids to actually use those features.
What also killed the basic understanding of PCs, is the way in which everything is now done “in-Browser”. No longer do you need to open Word to edit a document, nor do you need to open Photoshop. It’s all done in the browser, and if you want to simply “save” a document, well, just don’t close the tab and you’re golden.

- Comment on But it's just banana cat videos 1 year ago:
News are sporadically placed in-between shows, usually at set times, and ads exist just to give a quick overview over whatever will be reported on, which is basically a very summarized version of the reports, which means we’re back at me not being able to escape the news depression vortex.
- Comment on But it's just banana cat videos 1 year ago:
Yes, but there’s a difference between hearing the news as background noise and actively looking for it

Mood, haven’t owned a TV in 3 years, my mental health has never been better
- Comment on Circle of life 1 year ago:
Absolutely, my mother thought she was doing great by parenting me to live the childhood she never could, problem was, I was my own person, and absolutely not interested in experiencing all the things she never could.
My dad on the other hand treated me akin to a roommate (his words), which is not ideal for a teenager trying to learn basic life skills.

Also can’t forget them getting offended over /c/196 because they have a “no tankies” rule, which apparently is a slur for them
