And I JUST learned if you reload your Google voice window while you are on a phone call it cuts the call off

I've done that a few times

The only reason I even refreshed it was because the window randomly switched from dark mode to light mode and I was tired of being blinded by it. I guess next time I'll just swap tabs (like I'll remember, I make like 1 call a month ).

Just do a normal wipe down, no need to get it wet.

I do it out of habit from refreshing so many forum pages.

and for my latest bitch of the day...

I Just had my groceries delivered in like 50 plastic bags. Most of them only had 1 or 2 small items in them that could have easily been combined together to save at least half of the bags used. And when dude placed them at my doorstep, EVERY single one of them was handles down!

I ordered 3 bagged salads on Amazon Fresh once, they each got their own full size paper bag

Fuck Asetek. They were a patent troll, which caused their dominance in AIO market as they sued everyone else.

EDIT: I see a bunch of comments in the YT comments stating the similar.

How are modern head units? Last time I used one it felt like a sluggish dog.

Old one wasn't terrible, but this one puts it to shame.

So wasteful

I don’t think the whole plastic bag ban did much. Now we just have a shit ton of “reusable” plastic bags all over the house.

price?

$1200

Some are better than others, but they’ve definitely improved in the last 5 years or so.

Kinda crazy how the single DIN ones can have a bigger screen than the double DIN versions.

$1200

Damn, these have gotten significantly more expensive since I bought mine. We paid $350 out the door with a dash converter kit. However I’m sure that one has some more premium features.

We did okay before COVID when I used to do more in person shopping as I bought my own special canvas bags. Then stores stopped allowing you to reuse your own bags, so I put them in storage and I've been too lazy to bring them back out.

So...a bunch of thick disposable plastic bags are now all I end up using.

I've gotten to where I use them pretty much exclusively for trash bags.

I use them for old fry oil. The ones that don't get used for that end up being just put in my recycle can.

it's so big it'd block my hvac controls and vents

For the majority of people I think all that's changed is instead of thin bags going to the landfill, we just now have way thicker bags in the landfill

no I'm so fucking cheap that I just load a pile of groceries into my trunk and then make like 5 agonizing trips into the house

Meh

Who cares when you have tunes?

 

[CPTMULLER]

actually I'm even worse, now I get Amazon to deliver my groceries most of the time

I go to Costco and my local grocery for produce/meats, plus Walmart grocery delivery for basics.

Was talk of tool chests a few pages back IIRC. Ikea Bitch.
