No, sorry if that wasn't clear. She was telling the story to me and my parents, "he" was the man she'd been on a date with at the same restaurant previously.

I took my current gf and my parents to a nice restaurant last night. She mentioned she'd only been there once before, on a date, and that the only reason they went to that restaurant (very $$$) is because he had a gift card and was going to cover the meal. Orders all kinds of expensive stuff. The bill comes and then supposedly he realizes his gift card, if it actually existed in the first place, was for a different restaurant. She ended up having to pay on her CC because he had no other forms of payment. Obviously didn't work out for him in the end.

"at that"... If you don't want to eat around other people that exist then just don't go to restaurants.

As a person living in Maine, I do love the legal weed but it's getting pretty annoying when every new business that opens is a dispensary. I have no idea how they all make enough revenue to stay open. Some blocks in Portland literally have 3+ dispensaries.

Firefox beta with ublock and a paywall block list, works perfectly for 99% of the web

I don't think it's that far fetched. Pickled watermelon is delicious, melon with prosciutto is delicious. Sweet, salty, and vinegar are an age old combination.

Gathering, cutting, measuring all the ingredients before cooking is actually a very well regarded French method called mis en place so you're basically already classically trained 😜

Evaporust. Incredible product and reusable so many times.

I would take it to mean if you've never owned a home

Their Official website has easy to follow step-by-step instructions

You absolutely don't need a pi to run pihole. They have a list of officially supported OSs that can run the software, regardless of the hardware (as long as it meets the insanely low system requirements), and it can also be run in a docker container.

I was recently trying to add tickets from ticketbastard to Google wallet to be able to use them offline. I have chrome disabled on my phone. Surprise surprise it doesn't work with any other browser except chrome. The ticketbastard app just throws an error and nothing happens. Took me a lot of searching to realize it was because chrome was disabled.

Banning billboards is actually pretty huge. I live in Maine where billboards are banned and the mental break from being constantly forcibly advertised to is so nice. Every time I travel anywhere else I realize what a huge difference it makes.

+1000 anytime I accidentally open a link in Chrome I'm reminded how utterly unusable the "modern" Internet is without ad blocking at a bare minimum

Just stop buying phones from carriers and you never have to worry about this. If you like a phone, buy it unlocked straight from the manufacturer and do whatever you want with it. Most offer payment plans, and if not you can always use klarna or a credit card with no interest to make payments on it.

If you think Bill Lee has any intention of making the world a better place I've got a bridge to sell you

Yeah I completely gave up on the app. Firefox with ublock is a blessing, internet in general is basically unusable on mobile without it.

Prodigy was my first experience, then we (parents) switched to AOL. Fondest memories are learning about AOL and IRC chat bots and getting into Linux

Last time they came around I decided to give it a shot. Best way was just pan fried with butter. Crunchy, slightly nutty flavor. Not bad at all and lots of free food.

Same, I bought my pixel outright and use mint and this system app is not installed.
