When I was a kid, the woods near our house went alongside a hill at the top of which was a road, and this one hairpin turn was a popular spot to throw bottles over. So the cool place to hang out for us was a huge, colorful, mountain of broken glass.

If I wear a shirt for like 30 min and it’s not really dirty yet, I’ll hang it on the for right facing left. All of the clean clothes face right so I know at a glance. When I wear it again it’s dirty no matter what.

politics @lemmy.world•Well, That’s One Way to Sell Americans on Electric Cars. The U.S. has been wary of EVs. As the cost of gas soars, we’re now paying the price.
3·4 days agoI can’t justify a new car because I barely drive mine, but I still need it for a few edge cases, but I hate it because I bought it new just before some big features like back-up cameras became popular, but selling it would be a fool’s move because it’s in great shape since I take such good care of it and never drive it but it’s so old they would only offer a pittance.
Eternally torn between selling everything and becoming a hermit who lives in the woods and ramping up my consumerist whore game to get the best new thing.

Technology@lemmy.world•Spotify playing ads for paid subscribersEnglish
31·4 days agoSong-based radios for new music discovery on a service where they don’t silently drop huge swaths of music from my curated “liked” list. Tidal, Qobuz, and Bandcamp failed to meet this requirement in different ways.
Spotify isn’t even good, but I don’t have another real option yet.

Technology@lemmy.world•Spotify playing ads for paid subscribersEnglish
1·4 days agoI used Tidal for a few months, then found out it had silently removed ~10% of my music from my “liked” list. Completely unacceptable. They should at least keep a list of titles so I can go back and fix it. People say all services do this, but I’ve been keeping an eye on it and Spotify hasn’t done it since I hopped back.
Qobuz was painful to use and new music discovery was hopeless. No idea if they were removing tracks too.
Bandcamp seems cool, but I prefer to listen to music via song-based-radios, so that’s a no go.
Not sure what I’ll do if I have to drop Spotify again over ads.

Television@piefed.social•What character death made you not want to continue the series?English
2·5 days agoThere was a fairly decent martial arts manhwa called Bowblade.
Tap for spoiler
They introduced a female love interest pretty deep into the story. She was the first character who was openly and unconditionally supportive of the main character. Unusually, they immediately progressed their relationship, got married, and had a child.
Of course this beacon of hope and warmth only existed to cause trauma. A terrible bad guy kidnapped her, against the advice of literally every other character. He tortured her to extremes only possible in a fantasy novel, then she died in the hero’s arms.
Awful writing. Just awful.
This makes more sense. It always seemed weird to me that they would drown someone, say “Ah, she was innocent!”, and not have the whole town go “So you just murdered an innocent girl? Time for another execution I guess.”
I bought a friend a Pikmin plush one time, and it came in like this.

3·10 days agoI have to drink a lot more water than normal, so I pee several times a night. My bathroom has this helpful little switch that is motion activated to blast light into my sleepy eyes with the power of a thousand suns. I am Sisyphus.
My grandpa recorded absolutely everything on VHS in the 90s. He had so many bookshelves full of movies and shows he meticulously catalogued. I wanted to ask him if he ever actually watched any of them, but I didn’t want to break his spirit.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Buc-ees Ltd has a better business bureau rating of F and is not BBB accredited. "The company has stated they will not answer complaints forwarded to them by the BBB."
3·10 days agoThey make a name for themselves by offering quality goods and service at competitive prices. Frankly, that is a rare thing, despite the promises made by capitalism. For people who are sick of every company making them pay absurd prices for straight up garbage, it’s refreshing to see a company not yet enshittified.
They have lots of hit items, but personally I always stock up on their top tier yet cheap jerky when I visit.

General Memes & Private Chuckle@lemmy.dbzer0.com•I still have one
3·10 days agoI was nostalgically pleased to find one of these in Coin Game. They also had one of those vortex things where you put a coin in and it slowly circles into the donation hole.
I cannot believe I watched another 2 hour video about mario 64 tricks. I think he spent more time making this video than they spent coding it.
It’s really impressive how he does those in-game graphics to illustrate radii and stuff, though.
It’s a good video though.
“Part out” was what I needed, thanks! It seems to be working on some level, though I definitely messed up somewhere. Gonna try again later on a PC when I get home.

News@lemmy.world•Transgender Chili’s manager fired because ‘personal values and lifestyle did not align’ with chain’s, lawsuit says
6·11 days agoBased on this thread, it sounds like people with enough brainpower to know what pronouns are don’t eat there anyway, so this might actually make Chile’s money.
Like a whole set, say the one that was linked. I saw they had used sets for sale, wondering how it compares to buying all the pieces and self assembling.
Proton feels like they really want to be Google, but don’t have enough market share yet to enter the “removing ‘Don’t Be Evil’ from the mission statement” stage.







Been watching Great British Bake Off recently, the ethical editing is really refreshing.
