Worked for a close friend of mine, he went from a pack a day to vaping, and was then able to lower the concentration of nicotine gradually over time. He still vapes, but no nicotine, and he never went back to cigarettes.

“Rules for thee, writing the rules to control you while snorting stimulants for me” 😌

Only one of my three computers was having this problem, but this solution worked for me as well. Thanks for sharing it here!

Florida here. Had a Bernie bumper sticker from the early days of his campaign til the end of Trump’s admin. Only ever incited two interactions, both were physical threats.

So, it probably wouldn’t go well.

The phrase “hurt people hurt people” immediately comes to mind, but I still have no idea what Streeter’s story was, even after reading way more than I would have liked to. But I think yours is an important question for people to be asking, if they ever hope to prevent abuse (as much as could ever be prevented, I guess).

How fitting, that content no one wrote, goes on to be content no one reads.

Some of these GIF hosts can be pretty obtuse. I was able to get at this GIF by going to the embed page and clicking/tapping the “copy link” button. In this case, the only difference in the two URLs was the file extension.

No one’s telling you that you don’t have that choice… Just that over-indulging in that choice could lead to heart disease. What you find to be an acceptable level of risk is entirely up to you.

Maybe 30 to 45 minutes in Merritt Island, Florida, back in 2004.

It was my first time voting, and I went with my parents after they were home from work, so it’s likely that that was the longest anyone there waited.

I’ve lived all over central Florida since, and have never had to wait at all, but that’s mostly because I do Early Voting or even Vote By Mail now.

Check out Crime Pays But Botany Doesn’t (aka Joey Santore, aka Tony Santoro). He’s been a vocal advocate for the “kill your lawn” / natural landscaping crowd for a while, and also I just really enjoy him.

He worked on/is working on a cable TV show called “Kill Your Lawn” too, but it’s not super widely available. You can find some episodes of that on YouTube as well.

There’s a reason the lyrics are “Some of those who work forces burn crosses.”

I think you dropped this:

Inb4 someone on TikTok shows how to bypass that sensor by jamming an orange in it -__-

I got a TCL with Google TV earlier this year (the same model was available from both Best Buy and Wal-Mart), can confirm that I didn’t have to sign into anything or even connect it to the net to use the coax or HDMI ports. Also it remembers the last used connection, so I don’t even have to skip past the Google TV stuff when I turn it on.

One step closer to the Fallout games becoming reality, which is at least potentially cool in some ways.

Could it be to protect the rest of the item from getting scratched by the prongs? Especially a screen, or some soft/glossy plastic case that would be prone to scratches.

Edit: I submitted this right after Hylactor’s top comment and I agree with them!

For the same reasons that everything else is “enshittified” – It’s produced by people seeking maximum profits for minimum effort, and consumed by people who aren’t discerning enough to care.

But then there would be no title.

Ugh, who has time for that? I need all of my waking hours to be devoted to increasing work productivity and consuming products. Computers can feel my pesky feelings for me now.

Finally, a pro-health justification for eating the whole container of oatmeal cookies.
