Funny you should ask.

In all seriousness, there was a Texas-sized-chunk-of-ice event in 2016.

Good bot

The pandemic ended

I didn’t fucking tag you in my original post. I don’t even know how you found it in the first place. If this is how the fediverse works, that’s not good.

@TechConnectify I think you’re missing the part where I didn’t like the content, and I don’t like you personally, and I unsubscribed. Please stop spamming me.

As of this moment, the post has:

• 87 points on beehaw.org
• 55/38 on kbin.social
• 61 points on midwest.social
• 62 points on programming.dev

The real question is if downvotes on other instances federate back to Beehaw (i.e. did they only hide the button, or did they truly block them?)

That’s great that you found something that worked for you and for others. And I respect your stance on cost.

But it doesn’t change the fact that an experiment that only runs through the pre-wash cycle is at best misleading when the results that are important are that of the full cycle. And it also doesn’t change my impression that you used a fundamentally flawed experiment to try to make a logical argument, which was then contradicted in your follow-up.

It’s just not a great look.

If the point of the second video was “I was wrong” (versus “I’m still right but for different reasons”) then I probably wouldn’t have unsubscribed. Your moving of the goalposts (which just triggers too many memories of growing up with narcissists) just confirms that was a good choice.

But I do like your content about LED holiday lights, and I will be back to see what you find this season.

For what it’s worth, adding a little citric acid should be more cost effective than putting more detergent in the prewash cup.

I came for the traffic signals. I cringed through the overly-long CED saga. I left after the dishwashers.

I’ll still pop in seasonally though, for the latest on proper LED holiday lights.

Dishwashing video #1: Detergent pods must be bad, because dishwashers have a pre-wash dispenser. So if you use pods, you aren’t using enough detergent!

Here’s my demonstration of how using detergent during pre-wash results in more cleaning occurring during pre-wash (which, you know, isn’t the full cycle and isn’t how people use dishwashers).

Dishwashing video #2: Actually, I was totally wrong. But detergent pods are still bad, because they result in using too much detergent and are wasteful!

Wait. Is that what Lukashenko’s jet was doing?

'Member when Facebook chat was federated with Jabber?

Pepperidge Farm remembers!

There is already a list of instances which have pledged to not federate with Meta. The landscape is going to splinter into two networks.

I’m surprised none of them have just set AutoModerator to remove every new post.

Reddit didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment. According to Reddit spokesperson Tim Rathschmidt, “We’ll no longer comment on hearsay, unsubstantiated claims, or baseless accusations from The Verge. We’ll be in touch as corrections are needed.” In the absence of corrections, then, you can assume Reddit believes none are necessary.

Gold.

I have found no substantial difference between the DJ and the Daily Mix playlists. They both just play way too much of the exact same songs that Spotify has pushed at me for years.

As you grow up and learn new words, you can say more with fewer of them.

Upvote if you have fond memories of Oink’s Pink Palace.

Boost if you were there when Trent Reznor dropped a chunk of his new album directly into the tracker.

The people who like it are here. The people that don’t are still there. Not that complicated.
