  • Not discounting your mild infuriation, but I am 100% certain that if they switched to being individually wrapped tomorrow, a complaint about excessive packaging would be one of the top posts here.

    I'm not sure about Germany, but these have been sold in the US for decades now, and have always been 2 bars per wrapper as long as I can remember.

  • Yeah, if I were in her shoes, it would be impossible not to imagine my dad chuckling to himself as he slipped his mortal bonds, smug with satisfaction at having pulled the longest, pettiest prank possible on your kid. That piece of paper would be a treasure.

  • Yeah, "Hot" is just short for Hot Garbage. It's basically "New" for posts with a couple of upvotes and maybe 1 post.

    I think it's a divide by zero thing where posts are weighted by activity divided by age. So a tiny amount of activity on a new post is weighted the same or more than an active post that's a few hours old.

    Edit to add: Top 6 Hour seems to be where it's at for a mix of fresh content that is also active.

  • people who liked to keep an even achievement score

    Wait, what? Was this some kind of meta game people played, or just some weird compulsion like having to have the volume set to multiples of five?

  • Ha! It took me a minute too to realize that having to google WTF a skibidi toilet is was the Millennial test, not being expected to know it.

    Finally, a sterotype of "millennial" that recognizes we kinda be old now!

  • Begrudgingly given in.

    Good fully wireless ear buds are truly an amazing convenience, but I value having flexibility and redundancy in my hardware more than having a slightly sleeker form factor. Thay includes things like removable battery, SD card slot, etc. Unfortunately, the market has spoken, and keeping those features limits you to a more and more niche selection every year. By now the tradeoff just isn't worth it to me.

    As far as USB dongles, I seem to have enough problems with USB-C ports becoming loose or flaky for charging that I avoid using them except when necessary. Wireless chargers abound in my house.

  • To add to this, if you compare a dresser (or table or whatever) at ikea to a piece of the same price range from pretty much anywhere else, it's almost absurd how much better quality the IKEA piece will be. Or maybe it's more accurate to say it's absurd how crappy the non-IKEA piece will be.

    Seriously, go to a furniture store and look at the drawer construction and hardware on a $1000 dresser and compare that to a $400 IKEA dresser.

    There is definitely some garbage at the bottom of their price ranges, but their mid range stuff is generally a solid value.
