I don't understand why the top image has 4 holes, when like you said pants only have 3 openings

YES! This is my number one pet peeve. I am so fucking tired of having to install an app just to use my new e-scooter, or light bulb, or to use 100 new different functions that would work perfectly well on your website if you weren't such a fucking money grubbing troglodyte.

I told myself I would never install it until it became the only option for keeping in touch with a girl I like. But hey as long a that's all I use it for, they can't glean that much info from me, right? Right?

I moved to protonmail years ago for this reason, but then my friend gave me a free paid YouTube account so I created a new Gmail account and found a new love for heavy metal. Since then the algorithm has learnt my tastes so well I would be devastated to lose my account, but I made a pact with myself that if my friend ever decided to ditch her account that I wouldn't pay for my own. So I'm totally at the mercy of her whims, and she doesn't even know!

Oh in that case you could ask if it's running on Windows, cos you don't want any forced updates halfway through...

I use sync for lemmy, so every time I go on lemmy I see ads. Also when YouTubers have in- video sponsor ads. I skip them but it's still an inconvenience. Same for podcasts

Great app! I've been using it for years and it just gets better and better over time

Cool idea, I think it'd be more aesthetically pleasing if you painted them all the same colour

In Australia it's Tasmania

Better late than never

Because Brave didn't allow add-ons when I tried it. This was years ago so no idea what it's like now

Seems to me that it took a huge amount of time and resources to reach the new score, and I'm guessing they don't have the budget to do the same for every model

Weird that you're all calling it "Earth's summer" when it's only been summer in the Northern hemisphere.. Not arguing the point, just saying it sure hasn't been summer down here in Australia

Also, have you ever noticed that you have felt that the value of a product has decreased just because you didn’t pay for it, thus you are less interested to read it?

I think what you might be referring to is the Paradox of Choice -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Paradox_of_Choice

actually you don't even have to type all that, just typing 'yay' is equivalent

No it's "literally" been reduced to $1000.

wait, reddit used to have livestreaming? How did I not know this?

bingo!

just vanilla water

I'm ashamed to say I'm one of these people. most of my chatting with friends is done through signal, and I don't have the admin privileges to install the desktop app for signal. Therefore I would have to take the screenshot then email it to myself to access the image in my phone before sending it. Meanwhile I can just take a photo within the signal app and send it immediately.

What can I say, I'm a creature of convenience 🤷
