weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s a thing you miss that you’re 90% sure was objectively awful?3·2 months agoYeah but the boba sink to the bottom
Orbitz did all this research to get the little balls to be the exact same density as the water so they’d hover in the middle
weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What shows/movies are absurdly stupid but fun to watch with friends?6·2 months agoThis is basically the entire point of the fast and furious series.
I like to read in the dark, and a black OLED screen with white text is so much more comfortable than even an e-ink screen for me.
LCDs are good for price, I guess. All my big monitors are LCD, but phone has to be OLED.
It’s a holdover from old BBS forum style.
When you reply to an ancient thread, it immediately gets pushed to the top of the board. Now everyone basically is wondering what this 5 year old topic is doing on the first page. And they might have to read through several pages of messages to understand what the hell the newest reply is about because nobody remembers the topic in the first place.
With Reddit/Lemmy, the upvote system means it really doesn’t matter at all if you reply to an ancient thread, it won’t jump to the front page for anyone.

weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did non-RGB mechanical keyboards cease to exist? Can anyone recommend some?3·7 months agoTypewriters were not designed for ergonomics at all. They were made to make mechanical levers attached to the keys functional.
The up-angled keys are basically just a relic of mechanical design that people got used to. Like the QWERTY layout, which is also designed for mechanical function of a bunch of tiny levers swinging at a piece of paper, it’s actually designed to slow down typing speed and is also terrible for ergonomics.

Negative tilt is the actual ergonomic position.
Much like QWERTY, keyboards are designed with positive tilt for no reason other than “it’s always been that way” and “people got used to it”
weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did non-RGB mechanical keyboards cease to exist? Can anyone recommend some?25·7 months agoThen look for mechanical keyboards instead of gaming keyboards.
Go with the originals. Cherry, das keyboard, unicomp. Even Logitech has backlit but non-rgb lights.
Personally I’m using a Filco Majestouch.
I have a large silverware drawer with a silverware tray. The area around the silverware tray is that drawer though
I’d be in favor of both. Universal services and some income.
A little bit of basic income would allow some flexibility just in case there’s something that UBS doesn’t cover on an individual level.
UBI that’s big enough to cover housing, food, clothing, education, etc would almost certainly get abused and exploited in every way possible to not be used on housing, food, clothing, and education…
weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How would you get back into hobbies you've abandoned for years?2·7 months agoThen you should pick a hobby that takes massive talent, you’ll always look like a dumbass when you’re constantly failing at it.
My microwave’s popcorn button works perfect 100% of the time so far
weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What if people pronounced the word TWO without the silent W?142·8 months agoIt sounds exactly like “to” which means the w is silent.
It is not pronounced at all like any of the other example words given.
weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What seemingly random thing do you vehemently hate?5·8 months agoI was at a fried chicken place and there was someone in there wearing so much perfume it overpowered the oily aroma of fried chicken. What the fuck
weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who do you know that took a path you didn't expect?20·8 months agoHad a friend, super advanced in math/science. Basically finished high school in 2 years, went to university at 14/15, took computer engineering or some similar hard STEM program, was a teaching assistant tutoring people older than him, snuck into the university bars a few times showing his student ID while he was underage because how many people expect a 17 year old graduate student?
Anyways he became a pastor.
weew@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the longest you've ever had to wait in line to vote? Where in the world?2·8 months agoI always do early voting. Usually no wait but unfortunately I picked a sunny weekend day to do it once, had to wait 15 minutes.

Actually the main issue is men aren’t taught how to provide emotional support. I have difficulty with it myself. Heck, I think half of men can barely handle their own emotions properly, much less someone else’s.
Men are there for their bros. But generally men expect their bros to ask for more physical support. Lend a tool, some muscle, use their car, help them carry furniture, lend some cash. Men will be perfectly ok to help a bro out at the drop of a hat for things like that.
But ask how to figure out how to get over a relationship? Uhhh…
