I can't blame the customer here. Ya, that's the USB in the Ethernet port.

The per 100g price makes it seem like the 1kg (bottom) item is cheaper than the 2kg one.

I wonder how many people are baited into getting the more expensive item (by weight).

So the lady made us wait for a few minutes while my daughter, who is 14 and hasn't been on a plane since she was 4, started getting freaked out. Then she finally got her bag and opened it and searched it very thoroughly while asking us about whether or not she had any sharp objects.

She dresses punky despite loving Hello Kitty and she packed some spiked jewelry, so we thought maybe that was it.

It was not.

It was her deodorant.

The lady pulled out her deodorant, took it over to some special station where she did some sort of chemical analysis, and then gave it back and told us to zip up her case and leave.

Thanks for protecting the airport from dangerous deodorant, TSA! Great job!

I have a close friend that I've known 20 years who became obsessed with right-wing politics. even though I'm liberal, I don't make it my entire personality and life. But anyway... I was talking to him this morning casually like friends do.

Me: "Hey man. Do you have off today for MLK day?" Friend: "No, I have to work today." Me: "Damn, sorry to hear. I have off today since it's a company holiday." Friend: "Yeah, I work for a living. Guess that's the difference me and people who live in an ivory tower." Me: "Uhh I work for a living too. Idk why you're acting like I don't?" Friend: "I didn't mean you specifically. But you’re off and I’m not so it shows that you get to relax at least. You should be able to handle the truth lol. There's no shame in admitting that I'm a harder worker than everyone else. you shouldn't be so sensitive"

Honestly, he's not unique, either. I've met so many people who are conservative, obsessed with right-wing stuff, and they're all like this. They act like they're special and the whole world is lazy, "no one wants to work anymore" attitude.

And you can't even report it because there's no "this is not a full time job" option to report or even something remotely similar.

This is the closest you can get:

Like, what the fuck. Waiting rooms, libraries, movie theaters, on and on. That same fucking Samsung notification sound, at volume 11/10. For every notification every 20 seconds as Fox/CNN/QVC forces more and more bullshit on you and therefore us. Do you not know that you’re pissing everyone off? Do you not care? I hope it’s because you’re too stupid to turn off sound notifications, but the high volume suggests that you like it and want more. Your generation was the one making us be quiet in public spaces and now you ruin them for everybody. Seriously, fuck you.

I find the most common thing I use ai for is to give me the text from a screenshot due to websites putting important information in a manner that does not allow copy and paste of it. So I should completely not need to do this but it comes up a lot.

I have an enterprise account and they added this button today. Guess what used to be there? The profile image where you could so conveniently swipe up or down to switch between gmail accounts. This is the kind of UI garbage that makes you want to move your entire company to another service just because you can.

I went to dunkin' the other day and asked for an iced latte with less ice because it's winter and I wanted less ice. They gave me a cup that was halfway full of coffee. So I asked why and they told me they press a button on a machine, it fills it halfway full with coffee and then they add ice. So when you get a medium iced latte, you're not actually getting a medium latte, you're getting a small or a kids size nowadays of coffee, and then they just fill the rest of it with ice. If you ask for less ice, no screw you, you're not getting the full amount of coffee that you paid for...

I have never heard of this in any other country. What the hell?

Honestly, just WTF is going on with the world today? Achievements in a mobile app for ordering coffee, like this is some sort of weird mobile game you play. Is this what we are looking forward to in our future?

More than "mildly infuriating", this is deeply depressing.

(And seeing TikTok two times there don't make things better...)

I wish I were joking, but someone seriously pulled the trash can into the bathroom, and shat in it! You could smell it the moment you open the door! What kind of nutter would do this?! Americans are so wild I tell you

I graduated with an information systems degree about a decade ago, and no employer has ever given me any amount of money for that degree. I have never gotten a bonus or higher pay because of it. Now, I'm seeing so many videos on TikTok and reels lately of students who graduated with a computer science degree costing them upwards of 90K, And they are all packed any huge room with like 20 employers who are hiring for like 300 jobs but there's like thousands of them...

So basically if you want a digital piece of paper that says you're "educated", you can pay $40000 > $350,000. But you'll never get any amount of money for it from employers, it won't help you find a job. It's a myth

My expectations were already low based on the box's physical size, but it still somehow managed to not even meet that

canva fucking sucks.png < my literal screenshot filename. Anyway... Yeah, I wanted to make a circle with white fill. That's it, I gotta PAY for that. wtf?

The local TV stations have not been much help either. I guess there's nothing to know? You'd think there would be some local news that two TV stations and a newspaper might think about covering.

Dear mods, instead of taking your frustrations on the users, I suggest you something more suitable to your abilities - like sticking your finger into your anus and licking it after.

A couple of days ago i noticed something off with blahaj.zone. I couldn't see images posted by users on blahaj, so i thought it was a problem on their side.

Well guess fucking what? After 3 days, it was STILL broken, so i opened it and...

Blocked. They fucking blocked blahaj.zone. Actually beyond parody🤦‍♂️ Why? What was the point? there's trans content literally everywhere on lemmy. what's next, block them all? So now if i want to see a post by a user on blahaj, i have to turn on my VPN (protonvpn.com is also blocked in saudi, jfc) just to see it. Fuck this place. 🙄

I swear a couple of days ago it worked. This is a mild annoyance (hence the community) but still.

It's so over guys, MBS said no more 196 😔
