I do still freak out thinking i’ve been banned. Then i remember this isn’t reddit and lemmy appreciates free speech. Then i look at the notifications and most of them are just people adding on to my comment and a good bit of upvotes.

It’s nice to be in a place full of open minded people who are nerdy. Just where i want to be.

Uhhh, so they did their job? I had to make 30+ delivery orders a day, some of them with over 50 items. NO TIPS because it was my job to do that and make sure everything the customer paid for is in the bag.

This new restaurant opened up behind my house and the food is amazing according to reviews.

First time we go in, we order at the front, PAY, then wait for our food.

I’ve never been here, why would i tip you BEFORE i get my food? I left no tip on the pinpad and gave them cash when we left. But the whole premise of tipping BEFORE a service is something rich people do to get better treatment at a country club or spa, not when we are buying food.

“I don’t want real power, because with real power comes real responsibility, and I don’t want any of that shit. I just want the money. And the illusion of power. And puss.”

The open corruption, clear as day illegal and unconstitutional moves, and his overall smugness is embarrassing.

The GOP has gone insane to allow this man to continue like this. They are all sick with power and are hoping to “get theirs” next from daddy trump.

They are ALL traitors and should be charged for allowing the crimes to continue.

I don’t know why people buy an stuff like this and get surprised when this happens.

Plenty of other electronics that you have full control over.

It’s not. They did the same thing about 5 months ago. I have a religious friend and that was all the talk. Then when it didn’t happen, they claimed it wasn’t the right time.

Essentially, they have zero clue when it will be (because it doesn’t exist) and they continue to make up excuses for why it hasn’t happened. Religious people do some mental gymnastics that is hard for the non-religious person to understand.

I groan when I get up and my back pops when I lean a certain way. I’m way too young for those.

He looks so sad, so I think Trump is blackmailing him or something. He normally didn’t show up to trump events.

I personally don’t like soundbars so i go with an AV setup with 5.1 speakers for now. I got my AV recievers on nextdoor, craigslist, ebay, etc. I get them used because people constantly upgrade and i was able to get really nice Onkyo, Denon, and Pioneer AV receivers for under $80 each. Then i got REALLY lucky and found some Definitive Technology studio monitors at goodwill for $5 each and a center KLH platinum center speaker for $4. I found my other surround speakers in my attic from past friends and they are Sony or Bose. But best buy open box and outlet stores are your best bet for subwoofers and front speakers as they can be 30-40% off and still new with warranty. Monolith/Monoprice also makes some decent quality speakers and i love mine.

This is your reminder that tiktok has always been brain rot and you need to delete your account and app.

The fact it was bought by Nazi’s to spread their propaganda is just one more reason for people to delete the app and give them the least amount of views possible.

I would love to start a petition to ban tiktok in states once they turn it into GestapoTok. I mean the right is all about states rights right?

I spent months on Rtings looking up ratings, pricing, checking out tv sub’s and i came to the conclusion that you have 2 options.

1. spend $1500+ and get a Sony TV, the model doesn’t really matter as they are all better than their counterparts. I wanted MiniLED- but they were about $2,000.

2. Go the budget route and get a Hisense/TCL TV for $600-800 and use the other $1000 you saved for a home theatre system/ 4k player, etc.

LG makes great OLED’s, but you do need to be aware of burn in if you watch lots of news channels. Also the pricing is much higher and the technology for Mini LED’s is getting much better every year.

Avoid ALL Samsung TV’s as they are poorly made and will break quickly like all other samsung products.

I have a TCL 6 series Mini LED and love it. It has Dolby Vision, little glare, and it’s bright AF (not sure of the NIT rating). I also have a hisense U75 series mini LED and the picture quality is fantastic. The OS is buggy and it freezes, crashes every month or so. But both my TCL and Hisense have buggy OS’s and freeze randomly, just the cost of a cheaper TV.

I didn’t have my TCL hooked up to the internet for a couple years and used my computer for everything. Then i realized my computer cannot process 4k with HDR, so i connected them to the internet and set up Plex and they both look fantastic with 4k HDR, HDR10, or Dolby Vision.

Their build in speakers are the worst i have ever heard, even the Hisense with it’s supposed 2.1 speaker setup, they both sound horrible and you WILL need a good AV home theatre setup, or at the very least, a good quality soundbar.

Nope, if you talk to anyone on the right currently, everything the administration is doing right now is fine and they have broken no laws.

“Oh the democrats have done much worse.” When i ask them what things democrats have done that are close to what republicans do, they always bring up forcing kids to become trans or giving them hormones in school.

People really are that out of touch with reality.

Microsoft’s new OS has never been a concern of mine. I still have a windows XP, Vista, and windows 7 PC’s. They all work fine but zero security updates of course. You don’t need to upgrade your OS and most people will simply just keep windows 10 instead up buying a new computer.

I’m just going to setup dual boot with linux since i have some modding and custom software that only works on windows.

No one ever gets those rewards, or if they do, it’s a couple hundred dollars for all your time they wasted.

Doesn’t help to snitch to the government.

It is really weird to be able to have all my shows in order. Shows like south park doesn’t matter as much since most of the episodes aren’t multipart, but the cartoon wars and episodes 200 and 201 were pretty awesome to watch back to back weeks live.

But not like people are going to notice any difference over a stream if it buffers even slightly.

Most people can’t even tell the difference between 192 and 320 kbps, they don’t care about lossless over stream. Also screw spotify.

I was a hiring manager for years and my store manager did this.

First 2 weeks as i was getting to know the crew, i noticed they were all in high school, mostly women, and on the better looking side. Then as the months we on, he put me in charge of hiring and i actually hired based on skill and personality since that’s what matters in retail.

He always had the final “approval” interview and i could tell he never liked the smart ones or ones that weren’t blonde and white. He refused to hire several of them till i reminded him we pay $9 an hour and we have to take ANYONE who is willing to work for such a poor wage.

I’ll never forget the last hire he did before i quit. He had this like 18 year old girl come in for an interview since she shopped in the store with her parents a couple days before. He hired her ON THE SPOT without consulting me and i wasn’t happy. The VERY next day, her parents send us an email saying she had a complete mental breakdown and is in the psych hospital being treated.

Mexican and italian. Mexican and Indian, mexican and korean.

So many options!!

The communities exist, but there are no people in them. 1 person per month active is not a community. So most of the communties even on lemmy.world are barren. It’s pretty much just politics, memes, and linux stuff that stays active enough to be interesting.
