The honey one is just as useless as the honey extension itself, otherwise the YouTube one seems like it would be super op for studying topics en-mass

Bastet is a good one (in-terminal tetris game)

Reminds me of some other cool game mechanics that have been patented/copyrighted leading to games as a whole losing out on fantastic ideas. The nemesis system from the Shadow of Mordor games / loading screen minigames come to mind.

Idk as long as Meta services keep forcing you to sign up for an account to view anything of value I’d imagine a lot of people will look for alternatives elsewhere.

Nothing more annoying than trying to look at the menu for a local restaurant/business page for a local business and seeing “sign up for Facebook to view this page.” Much of the utility for any kind of discussion or shared info online (imo) lies in the ability to access it quickly via search and without being forced to login.

Reddit feels less genuine for sure, than it would have even as far back as 3 years ago. The mod purge probably accelerated things greatly but in general it’s felt like Reddit was going corporate astroturfing route for a while. Real discussions are very sparse compared to the amount of people telling you “to solve problem, buy this expensive thing!”

At this point the only thing Reddit has is a numbers advantage. The videos are no huge loss because at this point since you’re forced to use their (god awful) mobile app they either autoplay obnoxiously or automatically popup obscuring the comments (discussion is 90% of why I go to a forum why make it harder to see comments?).

The desktop experience is still okay but the constant pushing to get you to enable notifications is very irritating.

I would but the cigarette lighter doesn’t work (wiring issues w/ the car 🙃)

Would be using it pretty much every day, my car doesn’t have bluetooth so I need to rely on a casette to aux converter that I stick in the tape slot. Then I end up needing to plug my (jackless) phone into a lightning to aux dongle, plug that into the aux for the cassette converter, and then finally swap to the tape deck. Super annoying and would be slightly less-so with a jack.

Tanks for the assistance

Nutty Putty Cave jesus who the hell names these caves?

Welp time to start mass-buying dvd box sets and ripping the files, screw not owning shit you paid for

What would a percolator represent here? IE Something like this

What a good idea

Sometimes I get curious about chromium based browsers and consider giving them a shot for a while.

Then Google does shit like this and I keep mainlining Firefox out of spite. Half the reasons people experience “issues” with Firefox are just dumb garbage like this (see sites / web content being developed with Chrome-based in mind)

EU coming in clutch for tech rights once again

Would be hilarious of Microsoft did a 180 and decided to just stop all business in the EU in order to be able to continue forcing edge

Beer-can turkey gang, fried makes it far too greasy IMO

A true role model

hot dog? hot… dog…?

The most annoying thing with these updates is the way they don’t give you any kind of indication of what’s happening on your system during an update.

Have had cases where an application was ‘updating’ and looking in task manager/networking tab I can see no network traffic and no disk usage, seemingly hung up for 15 minutes or longer.

gotta love an OS which costs money and you have to disable features like web search for the fricking search to function properly
