Well now I have a delicacy called the toast sandwich.

From experience, learning to kickbox actually did massively improve my confidence. I can genuinely recommend it.

I mean, that’s their model, yeah. That’s exactly what it is.

This boy holes

Liquid Death has some great low-sugar sodas. I’ve been a strong fan of their Doctor Death. Their tea is also super low in sugar.

It’s kind of wild just how useful asbestos actually was. Aside from the obvious issues, it was genuinely a miracle material that did all sorts of cool things. Too bad our insides hate it more than just about anything else.

It’s almost like people have several unique sets of needs for an operating system and the community works to fill those voids as best as possible with no expectation of financial gain and so things aren’t as polished because of it.

But the company with near unlimited budget can’t figure out how to keep their OS from deleting people’s files and crashing.

“Man, I’ve had a headache for a long as I can remember.”

“Here, try some aspirin. At least give it a shot.”

“No thanks, I need the headache. It lets me play Fortnite.”

That means they would probably have to have accurate data on the subject.

I miss r/retiredgif. This is absolutely the most retired meme I’ve ever seen. Well done.

literally a dumb phone is enough

Not to:

• Browse the web
• Check my bank balance
  • Tap to Pay
• Use most any chat service (including open-source ones)
• Take a reasonable picture
• Listen to music (Brining another non-streaming player isn’t a reasonable trade off for most anyone)
• Remotely manage my home network (admittedly less “normal phone things”)
• The list goes on…

While I would love to be a Luddite and say I don’t need a smartphone, there’s just a swath of convenience that you can’t get any other way.

I’ll probably get flak for this due to being on Lemmy, but I’ll throw out the iPhone 16e. It’s priced really well against competition and you can often get them prepaid and unlocked at a decent discount.

And I’m sure someone will loudly tell me how wrong I am, but I’ve found the build quality to be best-in-show. I’ve dropped it with no case at least half a dozen times and you can’t even tell.

It’s not a power-user device so no, you don’t get all the fancy custom ROMs and such, but for doing all the normal phone things, I’ve not had a single issue.

I was a hardcore Android user for about 10 years, but now there’s so few real advantages over iOS that I just prefer the simplicity of iOS.

I wish there was an easy way to test this, but I got two weeks into my setup before I noticed performance issues because it was only affecting some of my games. This is still a good idea, just not a guarantee.

Worth mentioning that if you’re on AMD, you’re pretty much open for choice. If you have nVidia, make sure the OS you go with calls out nVidia support as a feature. Even then, your specific config may require that you try out a couple before finding the right fit.

I personally tried Bazzite and had a rough experience with performance and haven’t had issues on EndeavorOS, but have read reports from other nVidia users that had the opposite experience. All to say, your mileage may vary, and don’t give up right away if the first one doesn’t feel right.

Seconded. When I find out how botched the theatrical ending was, I was glad I started with the Director’s version.

I can’t remember if he eats anyone but season 3 of You has a lot of this going for it.

Would you gamble legality over the power these people have, though? Laws don’t really work for these people. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if her life had been threatened if she revealed anything. Maybe not by Bill directly, but by one from their in-crowd at least.

Popular: Strobe by Deadmau5. I personally like Let Go more from him, but it’s not as well-known.

Unpopular: Rodeo by The Party. This one is a wildly deep cut. My actual favorite song is more popular, but this is my favorite, most-hidden gem.
