Legacy Nvidia drivers a couple months ago? That was a fun time, lol.

I have the jlab version and they’re comfortable enough, but they’re pinching the side of your ear so they do get uncomfortable after a while. I still prefer them to standard earbuds, but I’m also prone to ear infections so…

Keep in mind sound quality probably isn’t quite on par with similar priced earbuds, but they’re great for podcasts. +1 for these being a “glad I bought them” impulse buy.

I just got off a phone interview that didn’t go amazing. I’ve done Zoom interviews before and those are less awful. Oh well, I’ve got another interview tomorrow for a job that’s closer and pays more even if I did really want the tech repair job.

I love the standard twist-erase, I bought a bunch of them in college and still use them. What’s different about the GT?

No reason? It’s for the best reason - looking at pictures of cats!

These kinds of verbal slip ups are universal, look how many comments and up votes this post has.

It’s funny, just laugh about it, nobody should agonize over this funny and harmless bit of being a human.

Found Quentin Tarantino’s Lemmy account.

Oh he’s the Lego Island guy, I thought he sounded familiar.

The only way that’s a problem is if you’re on certain government benefits, if you make just a little bit too much there’s a hard cutoff for many benefits so you may end up losing more than you made in OT. But if your staff is facing this dilemma, they need to be paid more.

You missed making the Fiat Maluch joke.

(Maluch in Polish apparently means toddler.)

Yeah I was happier not knowing about this bit of 196 lore.

I mean if my water heater decides to take a shit, I can just call the landlord and they’ll handle it…

I rent, and I wish it was that easy. I have to twist my landlord’s arm into doing anything and she always complains about how much it costs. We had sewage backing up into the basement and she didn’t want to pay for the emergency plumber. Ugh. I dream of my own apartment with a decent landlord.

Off topic, but Crypt of the Necrodancer is on sale right now on Steam and I own a dance mat… do you know how difficult the dance mat mode for the game is? I’m really bad at rhythm games, I still have a lot of fun playing them though.

Disney cast members are taught to “Disney point” where you point with either two fingers or your whole hand, and during Traditions (job training/brainwashing course) you’re shown pictures of Walt Disney doing that point.

At some point you realize that he’s doing that point because they just edited a cigarette out from between his fingers.

I found heaven in a pint of ice cream once.

Welcome to Lemmy, in six months you’ll be running Linux, lol.

Tunnel vision is an actual vision impairment. Blindness isn’t a “can’t see anything at all” thing (although sometimes it is), many blind people can see light and dark or very short distances in front of them, it’s not what popular culture portrays it as.

A friend of mine in college was blind and had macular degeneration - we met through the anime club and back then she was able to still watch anime by moving it to the corner of her remaining peripheral vision. She pretty effectively ended the dub vs sub argument, dubs were an accessibility thing, lol. The group was big into gaming and played a lot of Rock Band, but she was unfortunately usually left out, we sometimes talked her into singing for a few songs she knew well though.
