This is kinda what I do. I personally really enjoy Gmail and don't find any competitor can match it, especially since I use a catch-all domain and really value having Gmail's spam filtering in place. However I use my own domain an

The problem I have been struggling with is that I just don't like most meat products. I think overall I have mentally since I was a child slowly create more and more disdain for meat eating and that has resulted in a physical negative

Yes I believe they now only host magnet links. I believe they did used to have .torrent files. I am not sure if .torrent files actually make a huge difference in copyright though do they? Aren't they still almost the same as a magnet l

I have actually considered using these scripts on my reddit account for privacy reasons but have always been concerned about deleting some useful posts/comments I have made. I definitely would love an option to unassociate my username

Cloudflare even supports sites like thepiratebay if I recall correctly. It does make me respect them more and makes me happy to do business with them.

There is nothing more frustrating than searching for information on old reddit threads and seeing that some useful comment that used to be there is gone because the user nuked all their comments via a script. I understand the privacy reason

When I drove for Uber for a brief period I almost never got cash tips. Before they introduced the tipping option in the app I maybe got tips in cash 5-10% of the time. When Uber added tipping I did find I got tipped a bit more than I did in

Start sending the exec's who had the final say in these decisions to jail. And then slap the company with a fine proportional to their networth. You'll see companies actually following the law a lot more then. Right now there is a

Didn't Instacart get in trouble for a similar thing? I believe they said drivers would get 100% of their tips which was technically "true", however they were using the tips as part of their minimum pay and if the tips weren&#

It's likely similar to that bias where attractive people also progress faster in jobs. Even if you're not personally attracted to them, you still have that bias.

I personally went the self-hosting route using FreshRSS and quite enjoy it. I couldn't really justify the monthly Feedly costs when I had server resources sitting around being wasted.

For me it also depends on the content. Some sites I'd rather just read from in the feedreader such as a news site, but for things like YouTube videos I would rather watch on YouTube than watch via the embedded player. However I find ne

Lately their Twitch streaming service has also been declining in quality a lot and being plagued by anti-user behaviour such as attempting to degrade the experience quite ruthlessly for adblocking users, inconsistent banning with little com

"Ooops, we are sorry you noticed but not sorry about the changes, here we will delay it a little bit for you". Gotta give the people some time to get over the hype and then they will push forward anyway.

Okay but my pharmacist has a WhatsApp business account you can communicate on. I would not call such a conversation non-personal, instead it is super personal. But based on what Facebook is saying this wouldn't fall under the "per

I still would like to go back to the days where not all my feeds on things like YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, etc... all became just an algorithmic feed of what they think I like. It would be nice to go back to that day in age when it was chr

I'd be curious if anyone knows what this tool may be or if it still exists?

For some people delivery is quite useful and essential in their lives and gives them some independence. During some of the lockdowns in Canada drive-thru and delivery were some of the only options for getting food. And places without a driv

Because they act like they support local businesses but then take a 30% cut out of their profit despite not doing anything remotely close to justifying that price. This forces local small places to have to raise their costs whereas the big

Yeah I go to order a burrito at a local cheap burrito place and it no longer is a "cheap burrito place", then I have to add on the extra fees from DoorDash. It is annoying to me that these delivery companies will take around 30% o

This is exactly what I do. Every 2 months I get an email about a new backup being ready. If I know I have done a lot of stuff on my google account in the last 2 months I'll download a fresh archive of it and dump it to my NAS. It'

To add on to this, the person you are replying to is also quite wrong. Android devices definitely can be smooth and many go past 60hz now and have higher refresh rates than Apple products.

Yeah this screams classic Apple. Advertise the cost of the Mac as lower, but with a shitty option that most people will have to upgrade. Majority are not going to want to buy a 8gb laptop for that kind of money and not just bump it up to 16

Thanks for the tip, I may have to try this next time mine gets low. Do you know if this applies to most toner cartridges?

The problem is more where do you draw the line with that protection. What kind of risk warrants you getting special round the clock police presence? What if a criminal leader is having problems with another gang who keeps putting hits out o

What do you want them to do? Give her 24/7 security? They are telling her that if there are people against her she should be cautious. It's hard for police anywhere to prevent something that hasn't happened yet.

This is actually part of the problem I have. I only really have a few artists I may listen to on a more frequent basis, but other than that I am usually just using random playlists from Spotify that fit my mood rather than spending time mak

Man I have been using ShareX for quite a while and didn't even realize they had that scrolling capture feature. I just keep finding their tool more and more useful. I like your approach to getting your playlists out. I just used https

I've run into these so often. I'll be searching for a solution to a problem and I notice a "tutorial" but it on the site of a product that's name implies it is related to "fixing" the problem. And yep, as

That sounds like a pretty neat system. I assume lawyers can't take on a bunch of obvious shitty cases just to get the insurance money right? I assume the insurance companies would raise premiums or stop insuring them if the lawyer is l
