Not just you… I’ve had both clean and explicit versions playing of the same songs coming up randomly and it’s annoying.

I legit want an option to only use the explicit versions, the clean ones never sound good where they clean it up, and sometimes they even use those stupid sound effects that just frankly destroy the song. If the service only has the clean version, I think I’d rather it just not play it at all

That’s what i did and with very few issues (especially compared to what i had with Windows) I’ve not regretted it at all

How is your boox, BTW? Would you recommend them?

I’m in the market and they look interesting to me but the price is a bit of a shocker

Fully agree, just an observation about the comparison

Yeah, 6 inches is about the furthest something can be for me to see it with any clarity at all without glasses, regardless of size and resolution, but still often read without them on my phone just to relax my eyes (and also, nothing looks clearer to me than something a few inches from my face with my glasses off)

But i did say “6 inches to a foot” which I’m at least assuming is not that atypical a range that people hold their devices at, but I’m not that great at judging distance overall… At the very least, my point is you’re holding the small device much closer than the bigger screen will be so needs higher PPI to still look as crisp

Honestly, if they didn’t charge extra I’d probably not be so annoyed, but the theaters around me all add like a $3 “convenience” fee for booking online, which is complete bs since it’s actually saving them money not needing to keep as many people working

Capitalists will capitalist, though

A PPI of 92, but that screen is going to probably be between 2 and 3 feet from your face, vs the 150 PPI sitting 6 inches to a foot away… Doesn’t mean it isn’t good enough by any means, but it’s certainly not a conclusive comparison

I actually kind of dislike the assigned seating at movie theaters myself. It now doesn’t matter if i go early, the theater might already be nearly booked. The only way around this is to either make two trips to the theater or pay extra to buy online.

On the other hand, it does eliminate any rush to get there early once you have the ticket

Depends on what airline you’re taking, Southwest doesn’t assign seats

But most will anyway. Why leave extra money sitting on the table?

Great, so now we get to pay for the privilege of having our data harvested by 814 “partners”

Remember: “if you aren’t paying for the product then you are the product” is no longer accurate, you’re the product regardless of paying or not now.

I think i would legitimately just leave the site and block it at my pihole if i saw that

Sure

But why would I care if I’m not going to use it?

Honestly, I don’t care if all my phones going forward start having the port again, I’m sure it’ll make a lot of people happy, but I’ll still likely be using Bluetooth because it’s just more convenient for me

Which was the point. That I feel like you missed. Or misinterpreted. Either way… Cool?

I prefer the headphone jack to be Bluetooth, honestly… Haven’t had a physical port in many years and found I didn’t miss it at all

It’s okay, I’ve already switched to Linux

Shouldn’t have to, it should be something to enable or better yet install

I asked it how to get rid of it.

It decided my aggressive language was not okay and kept ending the “conversation” which only managed to piss me off even more.

If I want to curse at my f$king computer, I’m going to curse at my f$king computer. I paid for the damned thing, and it is a thing, not a person, I can yell at it all I want and not hurt it in any way so this policing of what we can say to it is all the more bizarre to me.

Starfield, which I don’t get the sheer magnitude of rancor it gets… It’s not perfect, but it’s still a good game, and none of its issues are “unfixable”, no matter how much its haters want to believe they are

Genuinely had a lot of fun with it and looking forward to content updates, as well as yes bug fixes and gameplay improvements (I did say it’s not perfect, but none of Bethesda’s games were really better at launch and most of them got slammed initially too)

Your first psychologist was awful. Holy hell, nobody should have to deal with that from the person who’s supposed to help when already struggling with depression.

For me, exercise always feels good afterward, but I always dread it anyway… So I’ve not done it in forever. Maybe I should try just walking…

I’m glad you found something and someone that could help you
