I mean, it’s pretty simple for me in that I won’t pay for a streaming service that has ads. Others might, but I don’t care what others pay for. I left cable for this reason and I’ll leave its next incarnation if that is to be.

Yup, it’s so easy now to buy direct. Same price, same shipping, no counterfeits. One of the things that was really annoying me about Amazon was how often my “new” item was so obviously already opened and returned, often with parts missing. I cancelled and haven’t looked back.
This is why I started using wireless charging whenever possible. USB will eventually fail from use.
I can hear this sentence. I always loved the cadence Grammer gave to the reading.
I knew my time was up when most of my coworkers hadn’t seen Shawshank Redemption. Watching that was just the cost of being bored in the late 90s.
Yeah, but the longer you have to wait to find someone who gets it the sweeter that moment is. I’ll go a good decade not working with anyone who knows a damn thing about Starship Troopers, but when I do… That’s a good, knee-slapping lunch we’ll have before one of us quits to never be seen again.
I don’t read much fiction, but I quite enjoyed the book Edge of Tomorrow was based on: All You Need Is Kill. The plots only overlap at a very high level, if that, so no worries on having it spoiled for you. It’s fun reading the protagonist’s thought process and I think the book does a far better job at making the aliens scary, the war desperate.
Same here. I feel Reddit changed for the worse so slowly that I had completely forgotten what the glory days were like until I came to Lemmy. I forgot that there was actual discussion in the comments rather than the same ten lazy comments ad naseum.
I’m kinda surprised Lemmy is losing users since it feels like there is more engagement since I joined earlier this year.
My schools had a zero tolerance policy for anyone involved in a fight for any reason. I saw a few kids suspended for clearly defending themselves. My father gave me regular talks to let me know that so long as the other person attacked first he’d fully support me defending myself however I needed.
It’s a trend recently started by the ancient Greeks.
Edge is actually really efficient. Over the years I’ve gone back and forth between the browsers as each seems to go through periods of inefficiency.
3 main reason I cancelled Amazon:
