I do have this problem with the monitor I hook up to my laptop for gaming occasionally. It’s looser because it gets plugged and unplugged more commonly and can occasionally slip out of I move my laptop to my lap so I can lean back when my back starts to ache.

But this is not a common situation I think

Just because you opted in, doesn’t make their statement untrue.

The simplicity of use in the walled garden, caters to people who aren’t techy. It’s a huge reason for their success.

But just like “nontechy” people like my husband can use an android, “techy” people can opt into a system that caters to the opposite.

That’s a choice you can make you do not speak for all

Gelatin isn’t a problem for a Vegetarian diet, it falls along the same lines as eggs, cheese and yogurt. Most Cristian consume animal byproducts and refrain from eating meat specifically, and then impose further based on their own values. Poptarts would in fact be okay in a vegetarian diet.

Itt people who don’t know the difference between vegetarian and vegan

My husband had a nasty cold and the self scan he was using we later found out should have had an out of order sign on it. After missing the fact that it wasn’t dinging for every item because he couldn’t hear well, they pulled him and had him arrested. His total was off by $100 and he should’ve realized it, admittedly, but he just wanted to get home. We were able to get them to drop the charges because the self check out was malfunctioning but he’s still banned from Walmart.

If you make a product and want to claim that it or its ingredients are organic, your final product probably needs to be certified.

That word probably exists in the same article you originally linked.

But many actually don’t do it which is why they don’t use the USDA certified

Do you know how many companies use just organic, and not “usda certified organic”

Most

No company holds themselves back from viable improvement because of a timeline thrown out at the beginning. What a weird take.

What is more likely “nope wecan’t make a change yet, this better product is out on every other peice of tech we and our competitors used, but someone said 10 years 2 years ago so we’re gonna wait another 6 to begin development”

Or

“This product is so serviceable enough for charging a phone and as long as we keep it we can continue to make significant money off of proprietary connectors”

They upgraded the iPad because the lightening was no longer a viable charging cable, the tech couldn’t keep up. And the EU has been threatening to establish a standard since the 30pin was in service, because it locked out competition back then. It became a serious issue to deal with after dongles became standard.

Edit: Oh God it’s you. 4 days later and another hot shit take. Apparently I need to block you to improve my lemmy experience.

Cross stitching.

I must have $700 worth of floss a 200$ custom stand and then accessories, I just gave away 82 skeins of off brand that advertised dmc dye standards, but WEREN’T. Don’t buy floss from Amazon kids, it’s worth it to do a custom order from joanns or Michael’s mid project.

It started with wanting to do a fun little Christmas ornament project with the Littles and now I have 7 mid finished projects including a massive LOTR project I’ve restated 3 times, that has 1 of 12 8×11 pages done on this beast l nearly 3’x2’ Aida cloth.

Wasn’t he in Belarus recently, threatening to take a large contingent of the Wagner group to “sightsee” in Poland?

Fair

Oh yeah. The videos are horrific imo

Fair enough.

Weird. We pass word documents back and forth all day and formatting is no problem. Even Adobe pdf to year conversions come out fine across the board.

I don’t get your first statement at all. I have no problem opening anything in office 365 and I’m the only one in my office with 365, everyone else has a version of office suite that you could buy outright (which is my biggest complaint about 365, personally I’d rather own it) and we have 0 issue transferring documents back and forth.

Including our insanely complex payroll excel sheet that should be a database. We pay people on 7 different pay schemes, from hourly, to commission, to peice rate, with base rates and bonuses, to special pay programs, using insanely complex macros and external sources, most of which are Google sheets. And that workbook functions from 365 to 2003

I always get warnings that I can break, but it never actually does

What are you doing in office that causes it to break between versions?

That’s what kills me about people who rag on Americans.

We order our dates the way we say them, and we use a temperature system is a great way to describe feeling heat.

I’ve got no defense for imperial measurements beyond scooping up a cup of flour is easier than dumping it on a scale.

But people spend more energy shitting on the cultural norms of Americans than anyone else (especially Europeans) and then spend a lot of time telling us we have no culture.

There are high efficiency top loaders too. I have an old style one because I couldn’t afford to keep repairing my HE, and 400 for a new top loader was cheaper than replacing the motherboard in my HE for the 3rd time.

Many top loaders will lock at certain points in the wash. Most often during the spin cycle. A top load with an agitator is just begging to break an impatient child’s arm.

Wait, you mean the last 2 are, in all fact, the same, exact, thing?
