Right. I never pull the wrong one anymore because fan=fan and light=light. I know it’s a stupid minor thing, but it’s great.
One of my favorite purchases in terms of usefulness, cost, and fun (relative) was these frigging ceiling fan pull chains. I saw them on some “things you didn’t know you needed” list or something. But for less than $10, they have made my life infinitely easier and they do give me a little joy every time I pull on them.
I was going to reply to OP with “They aren’t cockroaches, they’re palmetto bugs.”
Like, I absolutely get that these things exist and will be a part of life in Florida. But when we’re staying in your fancy hotel and complain about the bugs scurrying away from the light in the bathroom, you have to do a little better than argue semantics with me.
I go about 50/50 these days.
Browsing a bookstore will always beat out a website. Favorite books or authors will always get a physical purchase. Used books are cheap and awesome. And sometimes lengthy books are easier for me to get through if they’re physical.
But I love the convenience of my Kindle. I have a ton of books and can add to that collection any time I want. I can adjust text size, font, etc. Dictionary lookup. Syncs progress with the phone app so I can literally pick up and read anywhere.
That’s like pointing at your shit and saying “everything is literally in the toilet” when someone asks what you ate. If you can’t effectively structure an argument, you won’t convince anyone of anything.
And since no one else has called it out yet, GTFO with your antisemitism.
Thanks. I tried it briefly along with Leon and LinkSheet (also mentioned in the comments). URLCheck is hands down the best of the bunch, but its UI is so terrible and obtuse that I can’t bring myself to have to interact with it regularly. Will keep an eye on it though!
It looks like Lèon is for sharing (outbound) links to others whereas UrlChecker handles shared (inbound) links. Is that right? Or can UrlChecker also scrub a link before I send it?
Just a few thoughts…
Lemmy isn’t ready for primetime. It isn’t meant to be at this point. It’s very much a work in progress and for a lot of us, seeing the progress is part of the fun in being here.
Yeah, lemmy.world had some issues, but things have been pretty stable for me for a few weeks now.
I’m on Eternity, and no issues so far. But I’ll keep an eye out when lemmy.world updates to 0.18.5. Again, this is part of the progress. Sometimes shit breaks. If that’s a deal breaker for you, it’s totally understandable.
I guess ultimately, it’s just about what you’re comfortable with. If you aren’t interested in dealing with the issues that come along with early adoption, just move on. It’s okay. For me, I’ve been breaking and fixing computers for almost 40 years. It can be a bummer when something doesn’t work, but there are so many people freely giving their time and efforts to fix things that I can’t really be mad about it. I know how it goes and that things will get fixed.
“Now, I don’t know what I’m talking about, but I assure you, you can do it.”
Please update if you remember. I’ve been digging through 1 shot videos, but haven’t found it yet.
Haha. Last night my teen was watching the MJ halftime performance. She was SO offended that they cut the rap out of Black and White because “it’s the only part of the song that makes sense!”
Start with the largest. Beat it up a little each day. Every few days replace with the smaller ones in a worse and worse state of decomposure.
Lots of money to just trash things, but you know.
Not hard enough because the TV remote has never so much as shimmied in my direction from the other end of the couch, no matter how hard I try.
I drew a duck for my little cousin last weekend and she very quietly said “it looks like a butt.” She wasn’t entirely wrong and I started laughing pretty hard. She bolted and wouldn’t talk to me again. I felt so bad.
I prefer A Mighty Wind to Guffman, but still a good rec. And American Movie is an all-time fav.
Bob even becomes convinced he can shoot people by aiming his finger-guns and yelling, “Bang!”
Wow. I completely forgot about this movie. I loved that gag. Suppose I’ll seek this one out today!
Common if you grew up with HBO in the 80s and 90s, otherwise maybe not so much.
I think you should try Christopher Moore. Suggested starting point: Lamb.
Here’s how it starts: six year old Jesus and his little brother are playing a game where the brother kills a lizard with a rock, then Jesus puts it in his mouth to resurrect it.
His humor is irreverent, absurd, and constant. The stories are all grounded in the real world though, so you won’t struggle to understand lore, settings, or language. Very easy to read.
Watch out for the icy patch!
I don’t even recall seeing it as a kid in the 80s, but I found it once I had kids and it’s absolutely our favorite to watch as a family. In fact, now that the kids are teenagers, this is probably the only one that will draw them out of their rooms to watch together still.
