Idk. I put my cart back but I have heard an occasional decent argument why someone wouldn't.
One of the biggest ones is a single parent shopping alone with multiple small children. I get that ideally the cart corral probably isn't super far away, but leaving small kids alone for even a short period of time must be nerve wracking and not always safe depending on the area and climate.
I get to cut up human organs for a living. Whenever something is removed during surgery, it comes to me. It can be mundane but there are fun and interesting things too. The job is very hands on.
No, I'm not a surgeon. You wouldn't want me to attempt to perform surgery on you. I'm not a physician of any kind.
Why don't you talk to him about it? You guys are both obviously close already.
I will say...it's ok if you don't want to identify as gay or bisexual. But you clearly like doing these things with him already. I'm not saying that this means you should start identifying a different way than you want to. But what I am saying is that maybe you might like doing that with him as well. And it would be ok if you ended up liking it. It would also be ok if you didn't end up liking it. Everyone is different.
But yeah I think you should have a conversation about it.
So I am from the northern US. I was speaking to someone from the southern US and they said the word "cement". I had to do a double take and think hard about what they were saying. To me, it sounded like she was saying "semen". I am basically a child and thought it was hilarious.
I really, really feel you on the first paragraph. Humans are social creatures. But there is so much difficulty that goes in line with that. I struggle almost every single fucking day with people, yet I need them and want them.
Aww I'm sorry to hear. I hope the best for you, internet stranger. Your feelings matter. I know what it feels like when it seems like they don't. Hope the rest of your weekend goes ok.
That's great to hear! Makes sense that they would have worked them out eventually. I just never saw a reason to try to switch back. I tried out a bunch of different apps until I found one that I liked and worked well is all.
I'd love to rock my phone caseless, but yeah they are just too goddamn thin slippery for me. I know you can wrap the phone in a decal to make it less slippery, but at that point you're still covering the look of the phone anyway.
Plus, due to the type of phone I have, I seem to require a particular case for reasons that other people don't necessarily need. Ex: my phone case has this sort of ring attachment that is much smaller than a pop socket that has become essential for me. I don't have a way to attach it to my phone directly.
Jerboa was the first app I tried when there were essentially no other Lemmy apps. It worked ok in the very beginning, but then went horribly jank and turned into an almost unusable, buggy mess. Voyager was being developed at the time (then wefwef) and switching to it was like a breath of fresh air. It actually just freaking worked and wasn't a glitchy mess as opposed to the other apps in development at the time.
If Jerboa has improved a lot since then, then that's great! But I'd wager that I'm probably not the only one who was deeply turned off by this during its nearly broken phase of development. Voyager just worked and continues to just work, so I haven't had any reason to try to switch back.
Voyager is a fantastic experience imo. I tried other clients like Jerboa and a couple others I can't remember the names of. The others were always a buggy mess whereas Voyager actually just worked. Dunno if the other apps eventually improved, but I wasn't personally keen on sticking around through their significant growing pains when Voyager already existed.
I agree. I laughed at these phones long ago for many different reasons...one of them being the hideous crease.
The thing is that the crease is super noticeable to observers, but it essentially disappears when looking at it head on unless you're in like bright sunlight or something. Angles are so important here. So I see why non folding phone users balk at the crease...it's so prominent to them! Actually using it is a different story that you don't realize until you hold one in your hand yourself!
Idk...glass has downsides too. You drop it and it can shatter. I remember when glass on phones first got big and I saw shattered iPhones everywhere. My brother's iPhone has shattered back glass.
Still to this day, I kind of wish plastic would make a come back in phones. For some reason every phone nowadays has to be coated in glass on all sides to feel more premium for some reason. Even the backside of the phone has it on devices now. It's odd to me. Plastic housing is just so much more durable.
I've been using my current foldable for 1.5 years and the inner screen is flawless. There are absolutely zero scratches. I wouldn't say I baby the thing at all, although I also don't use it like a gorilla. I just use it like a normal phone except I use some common sense things. Probably one of the biggest is just not having the soft screen exposed and unfolded while in a pocket or bag. I fold it up before I put it in a pocket.
