Signaling that you are a man that can provide for a family
  • I agree with the girl. If you're willing to steal from a McDonalds, what else are you scheming and how long until those scheme involve me? Theft is theft and I'd want nothing to do with it.

    Edit. I don't care about McDonalds, I care about the lads moral compass and how he is willing to show off his "trick" to a first date and just drag her into a scheme. At least wait a while to say "what if we made 3 accounts and just got 3 orders of the $1 nugget deal?"

    If the date is cool with it, great f* big corp. If not, you know she's got morals that don't perfectly align with yours - which is okay, as long you respect that and figure it out.

    I'll stand by my statement "theft is theft", but I myself also won't deny having some morally gray online activities. However, I wouldn't want to have a first movie date through a movies123 clone. First impressions are key.

  • What are some tools you need when starting to do basic DIY Mechanical work and possible home improvement in the future.
  • This is how to properly build up a tool set.

    Dropping thousands on tools you might need js silly.

    Buy the cheap version first. Its very easy to end up with a pile of unused tools that you thought would change your life, but you only used them once or twice

    Once the tool gets worn out/broken or you find the tool can't do everything you need it to do, then it is time to look into something nicer.

  • Insane savings
  • If you shop blackfriday for Xmas and such;

    Check out the extension camelcamelcamel https://camelcamelcamel.com/

    It tracks prices on Amazon (or if you don't want extension, you can paste the link on their site). The extensions makes easy to check as your shopping.

    This let's you check if 50% off is really a sale or "we tripled the price last month and are fucking you over"

    You can also setup price watches, and get email when something's price drops below whatever you set.

    (Someone else mentioned Keepa that does the same thing, I've never heard of it, but a quick look shows it has a subscription for some stuff, no thanks)

  • All the other brands went along
  • The recent macbooks are heading back in the right direction.

    I think a lot of the complants come from wanting a portable computer/setup, and having a hub or a bunch of adapters takes away the portability.

    I think the ideal I/O for me would be;

    • Power
    • 4x USBc (displayport, high speed, etc.)
    • 1x USBA (flash drives are still mostly A, and if you have a wireless USB mouse, not needing an adapter or dealing with bluetooth is great)
    • 3.5 headphone/mic combo jack
    • Ethernet
    • HDMI, at least until more monitors have USBC inputs, although having an adapter cable isn't too bad.

    This is where I like framework approach with the customizable IO, but I think they need to shrink the blocks to give 6-8 ports. 4 is simply not enough, with one used up for power.

  • Android 16’s notification cooldown feature will save you from notification spam
  • I've never hear of a typing notification...and I gotta say, that sounds absolutely horrible.

    Its probably only to get you in the app, maybe you start typing a message to someone else while you wait for the first, and that person start typing a message to someone and the chain eventually gets to the first person distracting them from finishing their message to you creating a terrible cycle of pointless notifications and you still have no idea why you opened the app.

  • Just the essentials
  • That's easy. Let's assume you take home 18,000 a month. To get the couch, cut your food budget in half and skip rent for 1 month.

    Using the extra $900 to hire a moving company to get the couch in.

    Next month, you going to face late fees Again, cut the food budget in half, and use the $900 for rent.

    Repeat for matching Tiger and Panther couches.

    If your landlord complains about the late and unpaid rent, just remind them its all for the couches. They'll understand and leave you alone. That being said, be sure to place the couches so one can be easily moved in front the door whenever you're there.

  • Anyone not see their post list?

    The solution is Settings -> Account preferences -> Show read posts?

    Thanks fujiwood@lemmy.world

    I've posted a few time, but the post list always remains empty for some reason.

    I can see other people posts on their profiles.

    Recommendation for a Windows 'Calandar Widget'

    Basically looking a calandar that stays on the deaktop, and can show events (Otherwise I'd just use a wallpaper). I don't need much interaction with it, if any, essentially just open the actaul calandar program. Sync with iCal is a big plus.

    While FOSS is ideal, I'm open to anything free (that can be firewalled or is actually private (unlikely, I know))

    I found one that used windows 7 widgets, but it was too small and didn't seem to work right anyways.

    Android Tablets

    Does anyone have good experience with android tablets, and possibly replacing the OS? I see some interesting options from Google, lenovo, one plus, etc... I imagine the pixel one will be the easiest to load a new OS to, but I also wonder about the tablet support of things like lineage or graphine.

    The hardware doesn't have to be groundbreaking, just good enough to be my "travel laptop" for movies, comics and general interneting. I don't want a laptop, as I often like to sit in chair/bed to read comics or watch movies and a keyboard would make that awkward.

    One of my main concerns is the update support - my iPad has been getting updates since 2017, a lot of the android manufactures are promising a pathetic 3 to 5 years. I don't want to be "software bricked" in 5 years (I.e apps eventually requiring an Android version I cannot update to)
