  • I don’t do food deliveries anymore but when I did, almost always did the food come in a paper bag that had a sticker over it which would let you know if someone tampered with it after the food was prepared, i.e. the driver. The drinks also came with a sticker over the top of it to cover both the lid and the insert for the straw so you’d know if someone removed it.

    I’ve gotten them recently when doing curbside pickups at places like McDonald’s too.

    I think streamers would know their food was tampered with. Unless someone was extremely careful, but that’s difficult when dealing with the paper bags and stickers.

  • It’s ironic considering their early days in gaming. They were targeted by Universal over a BS lawsuit for using “Kong” in Donkey Kong and him being a gorilla like King Kong.

    Now they’re pulling the same crap on smaller people/businesses and also working with the very company who did the lawsuit to bring their games to the movies.

  • This was my comment. My dad and I felt that same way but my grandmother just couldn’t understand how we could.

    If I never needed to eat, that’d be wonderful. No more getting fat ever again and I’d probably be 100 times healthier.

  • Someone corrected me the other day on here that it’s not all games that are doing that but only some will be a game key and others will be the full game. I’m assuming that all first party titles will be the game key since this is largely about piracy and not allowing people to easily dump the game from the cartridge like people did for the Switch.

  • Wait so there will be two different types of cartridges? Some that do hold game data and others that don’t and are just the digital key?

    I was under the impression this would be all cartridges for the Switch 2.

  • They made a change that the cartridges no longer hold the game data but will require a download of the game and the cartridge is just a key for the digital game.

    That will stop game dumping from the cartridge. But with a jailbroken console, we can still get the game that way.

  • The benefit of these is that they actively dry your filament as it rolls into the printer. At least mine does that which has been great to reduce the time needed to prep for my prints. Mine lets you set the temperature and it will keep that as it rolls in.

    I heard about the food dryers but this was my choice also because I have limited space in my smaller home. This little box is about the size of a spool and sits behind my printer and I have it automated to turn on when I turn on my printer too.

  • I’ve been really liking the art style of the Common Side Effects tv show. It’s like anime but very western in feel with just the right amount of CGI, where it’s not too much but used in the right angles.

  • When I sleep at my mom’s house, there’s a smart lamp my brother put in the spare room that has 1 USB port on it and a wireless charging pad. I opt to use the wireless charging pad at night for my phone and the USB for my watch. Makes it so I can charge two devices simultaneously without having to switch out USBs.

    in a car, having wireless charging pad is nice for the convenience of taking it with you and putting it on very quickly and easily, especially if you’re actively driving and just want to do it with the least amount of distractions. Even with USB type C being reversible, you still need to make sure the cable gets in the hole and that’s dangerous to do while driving. But with a wireless pad, you don’t have to look and the magnet helps guide it on correctly for you. You still shouldn’t do this while driving, but out of the two, a vastly safer alternative. Besides that, it’s nicer to be able to just grab your phone and go when leaving the car and also easier when entering. Another addition is that a wireless charging pad takes the place of two accessories and combines them together. So you now have a mount and a charger in one instead of both being separate.

    Hygienically speaking, it’s cleaner in that you don’t have to touch the charger. Best for public use like a coffee cafe. People are gross and I try my hardest not to have touch contact with stuff if I can help it. So to be able to drop my phone down without touching a cable a million other people have been touching helps with that too.

    Even though I like it…I still want a port. A lot of cases don’t allow you to make direct contact to have wireless charging, so it’s not always an option. Also don’t always want to have my phone laying down, sometimes I want to use it while it’s charging, especially when typing, and that’s near impossible with 90% of charging pads unless it’s a special type of MagSafe for iPhones. Then there’s also the fact that I like it as an option in case something breaks. If the port is dirty or damaged, I still have the wireless charging option. Same in reverse if the wireless function ceases to work for some reason.

  • The ads are louder than the damn video I’m there to watch. I feel like this just started because I don’t remember having this problem a few months ago.

    That’s what I thought this new change was going to be. Fuck me for thinking YouTube would do something that would hurt advertisers and benefit the actual audience.

  • In addition to adblocking, some people use it for family censoring like blocking porn and gore on the domain level. It’s a more effective means as it would mean that your kid can’t go to ph on the family computer as well as their iPad.

    You can block individual domains if you wish but there are also a lot of lists out there that are generated and maintained by the community to include new sites as they arise.

    I like it for my iPhone for playing free games like solitaire and the like. A lot of these have intrusive ads but the PiHole effectively blocks the ads and I don’t have to have any third party apps running on my phone.

    Additionally, I set up a VPN on my Raspberry Pi so I can take this adblocking on the go too.

    You can also set up the PiHole to keep a log history which some people may want or you can use it to never keep the history for privacy reasons. I suppose this is another use case in ensuring your DNS server at home doesn’t keep a history of websites you visit from any device on the network.

  • I’ve gotten it 3 times from 2 different accounts. The first account sent it to me twice on two separate days. Ironically from an account that I had replied to months before it spammed me.

    Then it sent me it again a few weeks later from a different account, same picture but different name.

    I’ve blocked both accounts so far, so they may have sent more and I just didn’t see the other attempts.
