Serinus , to asklemmy in Has anyone else noticed a sudden lack of reading comprehension skills?

One of my last comments on Reddit was about this.

The biggest difference I’ve noticed is that people have stopped reading sentences. They’ll read all the words and then upvote based on the feeling those individual words give them. They won’t consider the meaning of all those words put together.

And yeah, “upvote does not mean agree” is something Reddit has always struggled with, but it has definitely had exponential growth lately.

It has made me start writing more clearly. There are comments I’ve written that have been wildly misinterpreted from my actual meaning. Part of that is that I tend towards sarcasm, and it doesn’t translate well over the internet no matter how absurd I get with it. But I’ve also started aiming to use more simple sentence structure.

I recently moved from Chrome to Firefox, so I get that. But Apple is a hell of a lot worse about it.

Using the iMessage thing to create social pressure in kids is pretty evil.

You can get a cheap android (but don’t have to). You can’t get a cheap iPhone.

And are you really going to get your 12 year old the latest flagship android when there are cheaper options?

If every android kid got the latest Pixel, I bet they wouldn’t be seen as “the cheap phone”.

Plus Apple’s been pushing nearly every anticompeitive angle they can. The iMessage thing is 100% intentional. It’s not that the android phones aren’t capable of working with iMessage. It’s that Apple wants to make your experience worse when something happens that doesn’t involve giving them money. Because they want you to push your friends into an iPhone, and people are dumb enough to fall for it.

Serinus , to asklemmy in What Do You Do With Large Amounts Of Money?

New roof, solar panels, battery, EV, remodel part of the house, new siding, buy a small house in my neighborhood to function as a guest house, take care of my parents, spend a couple months in Europe.

Oh, you meant the rest of it. Government bonds are always good. You can also use more than one bank to expand the $250k limit (which applies per account type and bank). A trust, for example, is insured separately from your checking account.

Past that, I couldn’t tell you. Your financial advisor would though, just make sure they have a “fiduciary duty” to serve your interests.

Serinus , to mildlyinfuriating in Trying is for losers.

Keep in mind that in these situations it’s not always their fault. Sometimes two other people have pulled in straight and they’re the third. Then the other two leave, and they just look like an ass.

Or maybe they’re just an ass. Can really go either way.

Serinus , to mildlyinfuriating in higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs

It doesn’t matter if it is. The way to do that is to increase your prices, not with hidden fees.

Serinus , to lemmyshitpost in quatre-vingts

We’re not that different with the teens. We effectively say “seven ten”, “eight ten”, “nine ten”. You don’t think of nineteen as “nine+ten”, it’s just its own number. Well, the French take that one step farther.

Serinus , to lemmyshitpost in anyone?

You have a point. Those are quite different

Serinus , to news in Special counsel obtained search warrant for Donald Trump’s Twitter account

You shouldn’t guess stuff that extreme. It trivializes whatever is found, whether it’s that or less than that.

Serinus , to news in 6 year old who shot teacher bragged about it

As far as I know, he’s just a murderer, not a pedophile.

I don’t remember most of the procedure. Drugs are good for that.

The prep was worse. Throwing up Gatorade with laxative powder wasn’t fun.

Do you have a portable video camera that supports raid 1?

Serinus , to technology in “We just lost 3TB of data on a SanDisk Extreme SSD” - The Verge

The use case for these drives is always a single point of failure. It’s camera footage out in the field. You have to get it home before you have proper storage.

Do you have a dashcam for your vehicle? Do you have backups before you get the footage home?

If you’re using Windows, just make sure file extensions are visible and that your file isn’t named Movie.mp4.exe

Serinus , to nostupidquestions in why do peoples porn searches end up in All/Hot?

I mean, in the screenshot the posts are less than ten minutes old. Saying “completely unmoderated” is a bit harsh for that kind of timeframe.
