Leaving a note and running away is passive. I see what you mean, but disagree.

Its stupid and petty. By calling out an asshole this way you show yourself as also being an asshole. Resorting to passive aggressive name calling and insults from mild inconvenience is not a good look.
AI has free reign to scrape Lemmy or any federated site. But at least the data being scraped isn’t curated and moderated by a massive advertising platform.
They killed my favorite app “rif”, so I started using the web version. Then they made the web version almost unusable with the “open this in our app” banner on every page which was the last straw for me. Can’t use third party apps, and the web version is constantly nagging you to not use it? Stupid. Now I just use Lemmy on Firefox and have had 0 issues.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why aren't people harassing marketers?English
1·4 months agoI still get unsolicited phone calls regularly and report it to my carriers spam reporting channels. It never ends!! Phone numbers from multiple states ive never been to. This is indeed still a problem and carriers are trying to make money off of it by selling upgraded tools/apps to mitigate it.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•whatever happened to in-store coffee grinders?English
2·5 months agoI use the coffee grinders at WinCo regularly in AZ. I’m surprised to not see many other comments saying so! They also have a fantastic bulk section. I hope it never goes away.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•USUAL in your country but NOT anywhere else.English
3·6 months agoAre you calling non tippers the assholes, and not the business owners or practice of tipping in general? Tipping is out of control and a stupid obligation as it is currently being used.
Sure, I just can’t help but imagine how I personally would react if this became common for all patients.
I think I would be offended if some robot came up to try and provide emotional support. Its fake, and reminds me that our society values profit over human life. This should not be normalized as a necessity due to missing money that is going to the pockets of administrators, owners, insurance, and whoever else…this is pathetic.

8·6 months agoHow can you tell? Just curious as a Marine veteran. We used to do jumping jacks and pushups in the gas room until the last man couldn’t take it anymore. Those were the days!
Edit: Oops nm, I found the source on this guy.

2·6 months agoI pay extra for paramount+ ad free version and they still show me periodic ads. Its infuriating. And they are much louder than the show content, as a cherry on top. What an awful service.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some things for a new home owner to consider getting early on?English
2·6 months agoThis is all so thoughtful, thank you for sharing!
I was thrilled when I bought my first home just a few years back and they had a single page hand written note explaining a couple of minor issues, some unusual plumbing, and an apology for a small hole in the wall done by accident during move out day. It was a relief just for some insight, since I didn’t really know what to do with a house and was a bit scatterbrained already.
This would be above and beyond expectations in the best way possible. Thanks for the reminder for me to get this started.

Technology@lemmy.world•After 16 years, Ecobee is shutting down support for the original smart thermostatEnglish
3·2 years agoIt will light up an indicator for each pan detected, so if 2 pans are on the stove you still need to activate the one you want. Assuming you don’t want both on.

Technology@lemmy.world•After 16 years, Ecobee is shutting down support for the original smart thermostatEnglish
4·2 years agoI just bought one of these! First press on, then wait a second for the pan to be detected, then select the burner to turn on, then + which sets it to 5/10, then press + 5 more times for full power! The one with knobs was like double price…but hey the pan heats up quick while you are cursing at it.
If the parking was obstructing something else you can report it to enforcement for towing/ticketing or the owners of the lot. If it was not obstructing something else then you are being ridiculous and trying to put people in their place. I read this reply as nothing but ego and lots of assumptions (shooting my brains out, wtf?)
