Hell if I know.

It absolutely has and I fucking hate it.

This is kind of surprising just because Google has gotten so much worse the last couple of years.

Yes, probably about 5 times over 20 years and 100s of attempts. I usually try it when annoyed and want to see Windows fail.

It looks like a wet paper towel on top.

Uh oh, going to piss off his fascist base. I know he’s trying to associate it with just the left.

Loki season 2 was peak of all marvel and it’s not even close for me.

I completely understand and I kind of agree that it’s low effort. However, my experience was that my “high effort messages” received maybe a 1/10th of the responses that got with hey. And then if factor in how many less people I was messaging because I was tailoring it then the amount of interested responses was significantly less.

Again, if it’s an app like tinder where you both have to show interest then I wouldn’t start with hey. Otherwise I view it as just showing interest and then if they respond then I can follow it up with something from their profile.

But I’ve been out of that scene for a decade so I have to imagine with enshitification that online dating is now even worse.

I disagree with the hey. It depends on the dating app.

If the app confirms that you’re both interested then hey is a bad opening. Okcupid, when I was originally using it, I would read through the profile and tailor a question to them. I found it pointless if they weren’t interested in me. So saying hey acted as a filter to find who would be interested in me.

That’s awesome! We’re coming up on 10 years.

I met my wife on POF. Before that, I paid for a a different service and got absolutely no where. Really hope that service is fucking dead.

It was on an active base but it was a high school student that might have been there on a field trip or something. All I know is that I hated every moment of the interaction lol.

It’s extremely uncomfortable. I got thanked on base while I was in PT gear buying alcohol.

Yes you can and it’s how I use it half the time. Keep in mind that the system is tuned to 720p/800p so you can either have the TV resolution and take a big performance hit or have it at the native resolution.

Democracy is when I vote and my accepted result happens.

How common are flying dreams for y’all? I don’t recall ever having them and I’m starting to feel slighted.

I’m doing my part!

Not worded like that on my ballot either.

Personally, I’d recommend The Next Generation series.
