You can try NewPipe, which is free. IIRC I downloaded it from F-Droid. Maybe someone else can reply and confirm that's the best place to get it.

If you use a VPN, change your country and see if that affects the content you're offered. I'm in Manchester according to my VPN, and Netflix is offering me tons of British sitcoms and dramas, shows not available in my home country.

How do younpay for these services? I'd imagine you might not want to use your credit cards.

OP, have you watched:

  • Black Mirror

Wayfair CEO sends a harsh wake-up call to employees (www.thestreet.com)

The CEO recently informed employees that further blurring the line between work and life is the recipe for success and is pushing for staff to put in more overtime, according to an email Shah wrote to his employees, which was obtained by Business Insider last week....

What's a word you've spent a long time not using right?

Just recently I was in a conversation with a number of UK mainlanders and we had a debate over what “tories” meant, apparently disproportionately ordinarily it refers to a political party and it’s not usual to use it as short for “territories” as I’ve used it (according to how the debate ended, it was half and half...

Does the character mean to cry "Attica"? Like people who yelled it in the 70s, referencing the prison revolt?

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Sorry to derail but what do people think of air gap or air tube wired headphones? Do you think they are necessary?

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Do you have a link for Stealth? Libreddit was working for me up until two days ago.

My kids call me bruh and I'm their mom, so, eh.

The fashion business seems to thrive on either body positivity or body negativity, but not body neutrality. If you feel neutral.about you body, I guess that doesn't prompt you to spend a ton of money on products to celebrate or disguise it.

My advice is to use a body wash or soap with salycitic acid. It's in products for preventing or treating acne - the salycitic acid kills the bacteria that causes body odor. You can also apply a toner with salycitic acid directly to your armpits (Stridex pads work well for this - they even make ones that are larger for use on the body). I do this and have zero B.O. Some people use other antibacterial soaps like Hibiclens or Paroxyl.

Also make sure that you are wearing clean clothes (wearing the same tshirt a couple of days in a row is taking a chance).

ETA: This won't help reduce sweating but it will help with the bacteria that feeds on the sweat.

I'm American and I can't think of a comedy show that makes fun of Indian food. Can you name one of them so I can check it out?

I'd say most medium to large sized cities in the US have Indian restaurants, so it's not so unusual.

Someone can appreciate what they have and still struggle to support a family, repair and maintaine a house, pay deductibles and co-pays for medical treatments, support an unemployed or ailing family member, pay student loans, pay car loans, send remittances to family in a home country, etc. They could simply live in a HCOL area. There are many not unusual scenarios that could have a household making $150k/year struggle.

It's basic Econ 101. People buy more in high inflation periods because they know the same goods will cost more in the future.

ETA: I myself have bought sneakers in future sizes for my kids as well as household consumables and toiletries (meaning, not gifts) this Black Friday.

Very_Bad_Janet OP ,

In this case, the magazine created fake journalists with fake bios and used them.in the bylines. I would think that's a kind of fraud and definitely hurts the magazine's trustworthiness. The article goes into other publications that have also used fake journalists with their bylines in AI produced articles. I think if they were more transparent- say, labeling an article "AI created content" - it wouldn't be as much of an issue.

This also doesn't address errors in the AI produced articles (which could be solved by having a real life fair checker or editor).

I guess the takeaway is to make sure you have a will.

From lunch to happy hour, neighbors in the western suburbs love nay excuse to be social, but one group of best friends is breaking up.

If they can't bother to copy edit their lede paragraph, I'm not reading the article.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

It's not the fault of the writer. It's the fault of the (non existent?) copy editor. When I see a blatant typo in the very first paragraph it makes me doubt the fact checking of the entire article - what else wasn't looked over?

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Hmm. Is this supposed to be affecting everyone using Firefox with adblockers? I just played a video on FF with uBO. Worked fine for me with no delays. Maybe because I searched for the video using DDG and watched it via DDG (meaning I did not click through and watch it on YT)?

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Thanks for introducing me to Ghost Archive.

We use espresso grounds in our coffee maker, so we drink Americanos by default.

You want to buy a mattress encasement AND a box spring encasement to cover both. An encasement surrounds and seals in the mattress/ boxspring. A topper just covers the top.

Make sure you buy the correct size (too loose is less helpful). If you have a futon, buy an encasement specifically for a futon.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Can you say where you're located because that sounds like a screaming deal. I'm in NYC though, so everything sounds affordable to me.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Yes, can someone tell us what the green text said? I don't see any image or link.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Maybe I missed this on reading (and rereading) the article, but do they mention the airline?

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Thank you!

Dr. Bronners liquid Castille soap. I've tried others but they are not as concentrated or as moisturizing. Great diluted for shaving legs.

Sensodyne Pronamel Intensive Enamel Repair Toothpaste. I've reversed three cavities that were forming by using this toothpaste.

Persil detergent. I use other detergents but always have this on deck for tough stains or funky items.

Jockey women's cotton underwear. There's a specific cut that they have that's flattering and comfortable.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

If you like Cetaphil and Cerave, you will also like Vanicream and Eucerin.

Unless you want a brand name IUD? I got a Mirena covered, no problem, in the US.

If you're looking for stuff for your face, I also recommend the following Korean beauty items. Nows a good time to buy them from kbeauty online retailers because most are doing deals and free shipping (November 11 is a Korean holiday):

  • Illyoon Ato Ceramide Concentrate Cream
  • Etude House Soon Jung 2x Barrier Intensive Cream

I side eyed her because of that Matty guy.

It looks less than practical. What do you do when you want to pull it all way from your face? Rock a side ponytail?

Very_Bad_Janet ,

So Mohawk-esque? That I can get with.

So funny to troll this community with wholesome life-love-laugh type memes. Well played, OP.

Lots of good recommendations here.

But if you're willing to try YouTube again, you can watch seasons of the British panel game show Taskmaster. The contestants are almost all stand up comics. The challenges are extremely creative, entertaining and a bit twisted, and the solutions the contestants come up with are often really brilliant. There are 16 seasons and there are versions from other countries like New Zealand.

Am I the only one who likes this song? I even love Last Christmas. I think it's because I don't go into brick and mortar stores often, so I can go a whole season and only hear it a few times. Somehow I hear Father Christmas and Christmas Wrapping way more often.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

Wow, this is kind of fascinating. If anything it points to nature over nurture, which I would think your brother would find a relief.

This is why I appreciate therapy. It's a tool for better parenting, in a way.

I can't wait to tie my entire financial life to X.

I believe this is one of the main reasons for low uptake right now.. Many people have gotten COVID once students returned to school in late August/early September. They should've released the COVID vaccine early August - waiting to couple it with the flu vaccine was a terrible idea.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

From what I heard Novavax is available at many Costco stores.

Walgreens and CVS have Pfizer and Moderna. I got the Moderna Spikevax at Walgreens in late September.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

I'm American so I thought I didn't know any Black British historical figures. Thanks, OP, for posting about this because it's inspiring me to educate myself on the subject.
