It could arguably be worse.

Wait, why use a bottle opener for a can?

It’s possible there was nothing else to whip out.

Hahaha, “Hmmm can’t seem to open this can, i’d better grab a bottle opener, that would make this situation a lot easier”

That’s what they call a double lidding. It’s an error that sometimes happens in manufacturing where a can is accidentally given two lids instead of one.

Mr_Dr_Oink ,

I dunno. The lid underneath looks different to the one on top. The holes are different sizes and the indent is a different shape. Is that likely to happen? I feel like this is an attempt to relabel some other brand of coke and sell it for a slighly higher price.

It’s just rotated like 30 degrees clockwise from the one on top, not differently sized or shaped.

yes, that’s definitely very mildly infuriating - but wait, your const is a function???

Reddit’s CEO just infuriated his striking moderators by saying ‘this one will pass,’ the way ‘all blowups’ do. They want to keep the site dark indefinitely.

The Reddit blackout was supposed to be a two-day event. But comments made by CEO Steve Huffman in an internal memo that leaked have strengthened the resolve of protesting moderators, who are vowing to keep the popular channels offline indefinitely.

Huffman, in a memo to Reddit staff Monday, reportedly downplayed the blackout. The Verge, which posted the email, quotes Huffman as saying the company has “not seen any significant revenue impact so far” and “like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well”.

As of 11:00 a.m. ET Wednesday, more than 6,000 subreddits were still dark, with a large number set to restricted access, meaning Reddit users could see old posts, but are unable to make new ones.

Among the subreddits that remain dark are r/funny (with over 40 million subscribers), r/Music and r/science (with over 30 million subscribers each) and r/DIY, which has more than 20 million subscribers.

isVeryLoud OP ,

Shhhhh… I think I was very high when I set my username. My instance won’t let me change my username right now, so we’ll all have to cope with my blunder for now lol

Obligatory fuck u/spez.

What is even the point of this?

CanadaPlus ,

Without reading the post, to deter vandals and mystery poopers.

c2h6 ,

Someone’s just gonna pee across the gate into the floor of the bathroom lol

Twelve20two ,

Fill up a dollar store water gun with pee. Blast that stream as far as it’ll go

IMongoose ,

This is almost certainly because of the social media trend to destroy public bathrooms. Not “teehee I pulled out a lot of toilet paper” but “I body slammed the air dryer until it broke off.”

What’s it do? Test your DNA to make sure you only use the “correct” bathroom?

Variden3301 , in Maybe I just don't get it, but articles that talk about what a celebrity is wearing that is almost always going to be some kind of product placement...

I don’t read news anymore. They are either depressing or empty in content. We need more uplifting news people!!!

LetterboxPancake ,

That’s unfair. Some are badly written as well.

intelati , in When the tab on the soda can doesn't quite work

Manufacturing failure modes is perhaps a weird fascination of mine. How does the industry fail for 1/1000 products sometimes…

defaultnamespace OP ,
@defaultnamespace@lemmy.world avatar

Me too! I try to take a picture of some of the better ones I run into. Some that come to mind are a fully sealed individual size bag of chips that only had air in it, and an individually wrapped protein cookie that had two cookies jammed in it. Life evens out.

lemmy.world/c/therewasanattempt would probably appreciate this and it’s so new there’s nothing there yet.

@ubergeek77@lemmy.ubergeek77.chat avatar

Don’t forget to edit all your comments first to say [removed] or [moving to lemmy.world]

Otherwise all your old comments stay on the site but with the username of [deleted]. Posts too.

If you need a tool to do this for you automatically, I think I’ve heard of people using Shreddit. But there are likely a few options.

flint5436 OP ,

Oh yeah, good idea! Before this strike I only heard of Mastodon. Didn’t like it because it was so twitter-esque. I wasn’t even aware that there are other federated networks which are similar to reddit… If all of my posts and comments said something like “user moved to lemmy.world” I’d spread the word that there are alternatives.

My friend used to live in this building. It took me way too like ng to find her floor!

You can tap the 3 dots next to the share button and say you’re not interested in seeing this type of stuff.

@Izzy@lemmy.world avatar

That is a impossible endeavor. There are countless “news” sites that all push this kind of drivel. If it is anything like YouTube It probably doesn’t even care about your suggestions anyway. I select that I’m not interested in something all the time on YouTube and then they just keep recommending the same channel or the same genre of content.

note: a lot of the problems people report using lemmy.world or lemmy.ml does not affect smaller instances either.
