Doesn't help much but I block the ads and ad companies when I can if they do fake ads.

Depends on the individual, some want it as a surprise, some aren't as concerned about the surprise.

Now if we could just get them to understand they need to listen to the tech experts.

[-] andrewta@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Yeah they are passing laws before the tech has caught up.

Come to my town. If you obey the speed limit you hit almost every light on red. Do 5-10 mph over and you hit most on green.

If you are at a red, the light will not change most times until there is a decent amount of traffic coming from another direction. When they get closer, they will get a red and you get a green. Making them stop.

I want to meet the idiots who designed this system.

He didn't hack anything. He used a password that wasn't changed.

In the United States it used to be on the first Wednesday of each month during the summer they would run a tornado alarm. Namely it was to test the alarm system, to make sure that everything was working.

And we knew if it was Wednesday and the first Wednesday of the month I mean. And those alarms went off we knew not to worry too much about it.

For some genius reason they decided to run them on different days, it’s pretty much just random at this point. Which is stupid because the only thing it does is makes everybody ignore the alarm.

I assumed they meant thanks but a Google search doesn’t give me that kind of result. What does dinata mean and what language is it from?

I'm curious how long it would take a NEW player to beat the core game? If they had access to the wiki and when needed YouTube but didn't have someone standing next to them telling them what to do. In other words they try the jumping puzzle or what ever they were trying to do a few times and if they failed, then go look it up. How long do you think it would take in hours?

And I mean the main story and all achievements for pve.

In order to get my iPad to connect to my phone I have to take the phone out of my back pocket. I don't have to unlock the phone or anything. Just take it out. If my phone is in my back pocket the iPad can't detect the phone. Once the two are connected I can put the phone back into my bank pocket, and use the phone as a hotspot

The simple answer is "REFUSE TO BUY THE SHIT!"

It is literally that simple. I can't think of a single person that HAS to buy a NEW car. Keep what you have or buy used. Tell the dealerships and auto makers to fuck off! Explain why a person ever has to buy a NEW car.

As long as people are stupid and buy it the auto makers WILL continue on this path.

If the dating apps can't provide decent results even once in a while then why would I pay?

"There are several emails from people who are interested, just pay a subscription fee to read them."

Pays sub fee and find out the emails are just spam.

Yeah I'll pay hundreds for this.

[-] andrewta@lemmy.world 179 points 11 months ago

Work hard, show up and you will get a pay raise, you will get promoted.

Yeah no didn’t work that way.

You want a pay raise, find a new job.
