Huh, neat. I've heard of pasta straws in private use but an Italian restaurant, that's cool. Yeah wooden and metal straws get cleaned. Tho wooden straws would eventually be burned I assume. And metal maybe remelted?

Chronically ill person checking in to mention people with my autoimmune disorder died a slow painful death in the past or ate pig thyroid. And people with endometriosis just spent their days in intense agony (some/many still do because current medical treatment doesn't work for them).

Also dunning Krueger and reverse dunning Krueger effects.

In Germany plastic straws are forbidden these days. There's straws made of metal or wood still. Can't comment on the larger question tho. I've never used straws to begin with.

I had a FP2 that lasted maybe twice as long as an unfair phone. Played a game on it that seemed to be too much for the processor/RAM. I bought a FP3 just after the new camera for it came out. It's starting to show similsr signs of processor/RAM issues. Thing is I haven't used the FP3 nearly as much and all my gaming is on tablets now. I'm unsure if I can justify buying another heavily expensive phone like this. Maybe a used one for me instead?

I do love the repairability tho and how it tries to be Eco and socio friendly. Installing lineageOS was super easy and I love not having google know my every move (I get adverts in Greek and ... Russian? Now as well as stuff for Muslims, I think they really don't track me well anymore.) It's probably also the only smart phone customer service who understands and was helpful when I wanted to know how to responsibly deal with a broken cover for the FP2.

Oh and now you combined DARVO and projection.

DARVOing too I see.

"overconfident willful ignorance"

Well if that isn't projection.

Ermahgawd I'm DYING!! HALP!!!

I can so hear it. In chorus with my own cat next to her half empty/full food bowl.

Thoughts and prayers!

That was a ride. I'm poor AF but even if I wasn't I can't see myself coughing up money for reddit.

They wanted to switch over to a subscription model. I assume many people like me who used to use infinity just bailed.

Edit: I actually dug up the source for this. It still worked for non subscribers until now. Apparently that will stop on august 30th. The headline is misleading. Starting in September it will be the aforementioned subscription model.

Good to hear an update on the issues that blind moderators face even if it is not a very positive one. And of course they came up with fancy stickers and flairs for helpful mods for a community where Admins are supposed to help mods. That's what the mods really needed!

Major sibling energy.

Sitting on the couch with no energy to do anything.

Huh. I'll try that. She is generally not the biggest fan of beds or plastic (or cool packs...) But no harm in offering.

A very credible assertion.

I feel ya. But with these people I'd forever wonder what they'd do if I did something less innocuous as buying a phone.

I personally am not the biggest apple fan but I find it downright disturbing how your "friends" are so adamant about this. My own dislike stems from overinflated prices, working conditions in the electronics sector in general and apple in particular (I have a fairphone and a headache about tablet use...) and waaaaaaay back I had an iPad that wasn't compatible with a windows/linux machine.

Doesn't mean apple doesn't have their good points, you are most firmly entitled to decide yourself what you spend money on and anything else wouldn't be decent behaviour in my opinion. Let alone how I'd treat my friends. Stating an opinion is nice and healthy, what they do... Not so much.
