  • It still takes 1 click to cancel, but the button is 1pt text and randomly bounces around the screen

  • I am getting inundated with calls from some sort of tax scam and it's driving me nuts.
  • Can confirm. I used to answer the calls to waste their time, ask them to hold while I go take a shit etc. I started to get more calls after doing this, until about a week in when the scammer told me to fuck off and stop wasting his time! After that, not so many calls.

  • 63% of Gen Z Would Rather Play Video Games Than Watch a Movie — GamerBlurb
  • Call me a grumpy old man but I'm not sure this is significant beyond "young people play (video) games". The report seems to show little difference in % of adults gaming between 2004 and 2024

  • Hey late-stage capitruleism, how's it going? Oh cool even worse then
  • Looking for option 3: Accept and spam the tracking endpoint with randomised data every 15ms

  • Music concerts should get quieter
  • I think there'll be massive differences in volume depending on culture, location & genre.

    Ranked loudest to quietest, from my most memorable gigs: Metal/emo, punk, rock, ska, soca, hip-hop, reggae, jazz, folk. Never been to a jazz venue and thought it was too loud!

  • Music concerts should get quieter
  • The counter argument is that you get to decide where you stand, close and damagingly loud, or safe and far away, or anywhere in between. Except for the last one I went to, in a tiny basement (max 15 people) blasting metal inches away from my face

  • I bet the one on the left doesn't even have a fake Swedish name.
  • Confirmation bias: all the shite furniture from 1800s has rotted to dust already

    Edit for full disclosure: I've exclusively bought antique furniture. I'm basically a shill for big-auction
