  • Before the internet, this was more common. I’m not sure why this doesn’t seem that plausible to happen unless if you didn’t experience the world pre-internet/smartphone.

    My friend exclusively finds “lady friends” when he is out and about in public and never uses the internet to meet women he is interested in. Usually from a glance and approaching her to say something flirty and get her number to go from there.

    Granted, my friend isn’t looking for “love” in the way you’re describing lol. But he still establishes a romantic connection when out and about in public and I wouldn’t put it past these women to assume they have found love when they share their number with him.

  • Nice! Thanks for the recommendation, I love having alternatives in case anything unexpectedly goes down.

  • There’s a good one for Amazon called Keepa that shows you the price history of the item. Helps a ton keeping prices in check during sales like Prime Day to see how much you are actually saving, if anything.

    Also nice to see how much you could potentially save if you just wait for the next sale or if there was already a price decrease. Often times it looks like I’m good buying without waiting for any sale as the sales only knocked off a few dollars, at most.

  • I got that too until I backed out and came back in.

  • When I read “IT Crowd” that was the episode I imagined before you even described it lol

  • Vote and move if it’s that bad, in that order.

  • Knowing it’s better than the alternatives being touted.

  • Oh really? I didn’t know that was a thing.

    So you tell Siri “Use ChatGPT” and then it switches over?

    I had asked Siri what it could do after the update and didn’t get much information on what new features there were or how to access them.

  • I really don’t get the advantage. It just feels like Siri with less.

    My ex’s last name was pronounced worse after the upgrade too. It used to enunciate the T in the last name and then after spoke it like there was no T. Always bothered me when I would ask Siri to make a call to her.

    It looks pretty? But beyond that, I’m not feeling any advantages like what ChatGPT or Copilot have.

  • You reminded me of the one and only time my friend and her husband and I played all night long on Civ V. Such a fun experience.

    I really want that feel again. I’ve never played DnD or tabletops like that but that’s what I feel like that feeling is comparable to, playing endlessly all night with IRL friends.

  • The PlayStation 2 intro. I never had one and still haven’t even all these years later, but that was a console I’d play at my cousins’ houses and we would often play late into the next morning. Hearing that intro is pure nostalgia to the highest degree. Since we didn’t have it at our house, it was even more so the reason to play so late on a weekend.

    I remember being obsessed with Sims Bustin’ Out and that was one of a few games we’d play late. That or one of the GTAs like III or Vice City and then I was able to sneak San Andreas for myself on Xbox and that was a game I played a lot too.

  • I’ll have to see what that’s about. It seems you’re the first here to say you’ve done it with all 4 fingers. Sounds like an intense game.

  • Ow that sounds painful, I’m sorry. I wonder if a pad of some sort in that area may help? Something like one of those soft adhesive strips right where it hurts?

  • Streaming is going to be one of the most common but still difficult ones because the market is oversaturated unless you’re doing some off the wall stuff that is probably illegal or unethical.

    Other than that, there’s going to be smaller stuff known as “beer money”, but a lot of these typically are surveys and the like which require a contract of which you legally cannot agree to.

    Your better bet is doing stuff IRL like plowing snow or mowing lawns in the neighborhood. The old timey way teens made money unless you go get a job that most teens get like bagging groceries or pushing carts at the grocery store which you said is going to be impossible to find.

  • Personally I use just my index fingers to alternate between these but I’m realizing how inefficient this seems when I look at the controller scheme. Seems more like it would be more beneficial to use middle and index fingers but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone use that? But maybe some people do? Was curious if any others out there did or knew of others who do.

  • Invader Zim

    I still come back to this every once in a while. I loved the dark humor plus the childish humor mixed with some adult humor though I don’t feel it was on the same level as other shows of the same time as I’ve rewatched it, which has surprised me.
