Obviously a different thing, but your comment unlocked a several decades old memory about my mom tying the ends of my duvet to the bed frame, because I would kick it off the bed while asleep. Wow, that memory was pulled from some very dusty and almost forgotten part of my brain, lol.

It’s also a thing in (parts of) Europe, too, unfortunately. Only college professors were paid decently. “Were” because I don’t have up-to-date info.
Not the US, but I have an acquaintance who is a “Christian”. She’s an immigrant. She goes to church with mostly nonwhite immigrants. She’s extremely racist, among other things. You can’t make that shit up 🤷🏻

3·1 month agoI feel you. The last time I had proper sleep was a decade ago. I don’t remember what’s it like to wake up rested.
These heated products are okay for home useage. But my feet usually don’t warm up when walking outside in cold and these things aren’t very durable in that sense. Maybe I should just move closer to the equator. Kidding! I can’t handle heat either 😞

31·1 month agoSame, but different reasons. Here it’s either dub (eww) or original voice with no CC, which is usually a shitty experience with poor audio setup.
I have issues with keeping my feet and hands warm (they tend to be ice cold), so socks that could keep my feet warm would actually be magic 😭

24·1 month agoIt’s really quite depressing and infuriating. I’m finally financially in a good spot to afford better quality clothes. I want to buy something that’ll last me years and years. I don’t like to participate in fast fashion. So I looked up which brands people recommended. Turns out everyone’s in agreement that even the expensive stuff from previously well respected brands is now overpriced crap that falls apart within a year.
I’ve got clothes from 20 years ago, some even much older from my mom that holds up better than things I bought a year ago. I hate it, fuck late stage capitalism.

43·2 months agoI run multiple containers from a single dev, and I could switch to someone else’s images, but it’s a hassle. Once I ran into an issue, I realized the sole support is provided on Discord. Which, whatever, I think it’s awful because it’s not openly searchable on the internet, but it’s his choice. However, what I found extremely dumb is ALL announcements, changelogs, including breaking changes, are posted exclusively on his Discord server. Nowhere else. And he acts all pissy about people stumbling into the server for help and not finding the exact announcement, and being trigger happy with the bans. I get people being dumb and not reading basic instructions, but this goes beyond that. Your whole fucking operation is on a closed Discord server with subpar search function.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•why hard exit editor? Nano say at bottom.English
71·3 months agoKind of, but not really? Nano by default displays US English(?) keyboard bindings which are different to the keyboard I have, so I still have to have a cheat sheet open when I’m on a system with nano-only editor.
I know from experience. Moving to Mac is more likely, but that comes with higher costs. And most non-tech people are deep in the M$ Office/365 and even Windows tends to be too complicated for them. Many of them can’t even follow two picture instructions, let alone move to another OS.
No, they won’t. Maybe in small shops with only people who are advanced users and don’t need/develop software for Windows. The rest is fantasy.

11·3 months agoWhich makes you wonder why people even pick partners based on beauty. It would make more sense to pick them based on personality.
Demisexual. Yes, we do exist. From anecdotal experience it’s mostly women who are demisexuals.
Tbh, your own body can prevent you from doing the former.

That sucks. I noticed our Lidl did the same (maybe other supermarkets, too, haven’t paid attention), but people still return the carts. This is in Austria.
Same in Austria. Noticed our Lidl removed the coin/token slot recently.



Wow, that’s crazy. I had exactly the same looking feral black cat for a day years ago. Unfortunately, she managed to escape somehow and I never saw her again. She was so terrified, she hid in one of my desk drawers. I wonder if I can find a photo.
