Yeah, Samsung TVs don’t have a native Jellyfin app either. You can sideload it, but good luck walking your “you touched my computer six months ago and now it’s broken. This is your fault” grandmother through that over the phone.

honestly every explanation probably just ends at ‘this is what i learned on and it works’.

Yeah, lots of these answers basically boil down to “when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”

And the officers that beat him still work for him. One is assigned to the Domestic Abuse division.

Sure, there’s always the “time and place” consideration to be made. If you tried to start a fight every time someone disagreed with you, you’d never get anywhere in life. But that’s really a different discussion.

The health app is wonky. When it checks your vitals it vibrates.

I think you need to check your settings, because it definitely doesn’t do that by default.

Unfortunately, credit card tips are automatically reported, and most orders these days use cards. Cash tips are still basically never reported, or are only reported enough to show that you’re making minimum wage.

The main draw is sync with other browsers. That part actually works pretty well; You can easily send web pages from your desktop to your phone, or vice versa. History, bookmarks, etc all sync, giving the user a more homogenous experience. If I look something up on my desktop, I can quickly return to it while using my phone.

Basically, since all browsers were required to use WebKit, the only real difference between the browsers was which UI and sync method you preferred.

Yup, this is why allies are so important. It’s the ally’s job to be angry and belligerent when the targeted group can’t. When the targeted group needs to keep their head down, that’s when allies should be the loudest. The ally’s largest point is that they’re beyond reprisal, because they don’t belong to the targeted group.

If someone throws a slur at your friend, that friend may not be able to speak up out of fear of further harassment and/or retaliation. Also, any anger they show will be DARVO’ed around and used to paint them as the aggressor. It will be used to confirm any stereotypes that the bigot already holds; fascists and bigots regularly weaponize decorum, by saying/doing awful things to marginalized groups while pretending to be civil. Then when those people get angry, the fascist turns it around and makes the targeted group look unreasonable. When the victim needs to maintain decorum, that’s when the ally should step up.

A great example of this in action can be found here. Rep Sarah McBride is openly transgender, and Keith Self intentionally misgenders her during her introduction. Sarah throws back a quick “thank you Madam Chair” (misgendering Self) joke in response, but then leaves it at that. Rep William Keating quickly recognizes what is going on, and asks Self to repeat the introduction using McBride’s chosen pronouns. At this point, McBride steps back and doesn’t say anything else; Any anger or belligerence she shows will be used by Self to justify further marginalizing trans people. Self tries to come up with a loose explanation, but quickly flees the situation when it becomes obvious that Keating isn’t going to let the flimsy reasoning stand. Self immediately adjourns the meeting, but he only does this because Keating is the one pushing back; If McBride had been the one to push back, Self would have dug his heels in and used it to grab anti-trans soundbites for later campaigns.

Joke’s on us: The elderly are the MAGA. They’ll just expect their millennial children to support them again, by insisting that they move in.

fyi there is no such thing as a no log vpn; be careful out there.

My buddy is from South Carolina, and I distinctly remember the first time he said this. We were hanging out in his living room with some other friends, and it started to storm. He dropped the “devil’s beating his wife with a frying pan” line, and I swear it was a record scratch moment for everyone in the room. Every single person instantly stopped what they were doing, trying to process what he had just said.

That still won’t work. Either the forwarded port is getting blocked by Mullvad (which is bad) or you’re bypassing Mullvad to use the forwarded port (which is really bad). You’ve essentially roped yourself into a double-NAT situation, where your router has a forwarded port but the router behind yours (the VPN server, which you have no control over) doesn’t.

You have corn fields to sneak off to? Every inch of my state is solid concrete. I have to find an available dumpster.

Nibling. It’s the gender-neutral form of “niece” or “nephew”. Your sister is your sibling, your niece is your nibling.

Or sonder. That’s the feeling you get when thinking about the fact that everyone in the world lives a life just as vibrant and complex as your own.

Genetics also plays a large part in greying. I started going grey in my early 20’s. Rather than fight it, I chose to embrace it. I’m in my mid 30’s now, probably ~40% grey, and consistently get “silver fox” and “salt and pepper” types of comments. Fighting against it often leads to people spotting when you need to touch up your roots. But embracing it and styling your hair to accentuate it will make it look much more natural and attractive.

I mean, there’s also the whole “wait staff and car wash attendants aren’t necessary to the survival of a civilization” thing. Crop workers are absolutely vital to the long-term survival of civilization, but we could live perfectly fulfilling lives without car washes or restaurants.

It’s important to remember that the entire world is only 3-5 missed meals away from anarchy. And not the nice “everyone in a neighborhood banding together to protect and feed their neighbors” type of anarchy either.

My office is bad about the cookie thing too. My office is split across two different buildings.

I have worked here for several years, and we only found out a month ago that the main building has free bagels in the break room every Monday morning. The main building never bothered to tell us, because it’s donated from the local bagel shop as a “there until they’re all gone” situation. And the office drones in the main building didn’t want to share, so they just never told any of us in the secondary building.

We only found out because the bagel shop wanted to do an event in our secondary building. The main building was extremely pushy about us making sure it went well, and offered a bunch of free shit too. We finally chatted to the bagel shop owner about how odd it was that the main building was so invested. She casually dropped the “oh that’s probably just because of all the free bagels we send y’all every week haha” type of comment.

Did some digging, and sure enough the owner sends like a hundred bagels over to the main building every Monday morning. She always assumed that they were sharing, because it’s way too many bagels for just the primary building… But it turns out the employees over there were just hungry hippo’ing the break room table and taking like six bagels home every week.

Yeah, I’m a manager and I fully encourage my staff to take tips and gifts even though it’s against company policy. If a client offers a tip, I normally respond with something like “I don’t take tips, but if you and the part-timer want to to walk around the corner where there’s no security cameras, I’ll stay right here so I don’t see any money change hands.”

The part-timers need the money more than I do anyways. $50 won’t make a huge difference to me, but could be the determining factor in whether or not the part-timer has enough gas money to get to class next week. Plus they’re the actual boots on the ground making sure the day-to-day runs smoothly. I’m just doing paperwork and hanging out in case any big issues pop up.

The single largest predictor of future wealth and earning potential in America is what ZIP code you were born in… So, with that in mind… 94027 or 33109. If you’re born in one of those two areas, you’re pretty much guaranteed to be a multi-millionaire by birth.

The issue is that they assume “I don’t have social media” is a lie. They assume it’s really just code for “I refuse to tell you what my username is.”
