The guardian of forever was discovered just a few hundred years after the release of unrelated Belgian techno anthem, pump up the jam

Alright I'll get the AI on the case to see if it can determine those things from your post.

This has been quite an exciting past few years in pasta

Well then. Neat.

Look out!

Then the ninjas jump out of the tree.

I never understood that whole tech/startup culture. I would absolutely hate for my entire life to be my job. And from the outside all these "cool" perks are very clearly designed to get you to spend as much time working as possible. No thanks.

It's just fanboys being fanboys. Doesn't really matter what brand it is. I just think there happens to be many many more apple fanboys than there are for other brands.

So, I am absolutely not defending the shooting itself, but everything I have read about this is that he definitely tried to remove himself from the situation but the "prankster" followed him and continued to harass him.

And to make things worse, the so called prankster had already been kicked out of the mall the day before and came back and was specifically trying to avoid security.

So yea, shooting was almost certainly an overreaction, but I do then wonder how exactly you are supposed to deal with something like this when this asshole won't listen and won't let you leave.

No, it's the episode of discovery where he is mentioned. It feeds his ego directly.

[-] OrangeJoe@lemm.ee 17 points 9 months ago

I reported his channel for harassment way back when this all started and I know a bunch of other people did too. So glad YouTube cares...

But you would also have to be a total asshole and go around harassing strangers who are just trying to get on with their lives.

Sympathy? What a dumb take.

People still have wired headphones that still work perfectly fine. We used to be able to use them directly with our phones. We also had the option of using wireless too if we wanted. The option was removed, so now in order to keep using some of still perfectly fine electronics with our phones, it requires adapters. That's annoying. What is the benefit to me as a consumer now that the jack is gone? Some marketing bullshit about weight or cost savings? I don't buy it. Phones are larger than ever and more expensive than ever.

[-] OrangeJoe@lemm.ee 15 points 10 months ago

Because they removed something that was convenient to try and force people to either spend more money on adapters or buy Bluetooth headphones.

And if you need to charge at the same time? That's yet another adapter.
