Which soap? I’ve been using Dove for everything for the past few years. Apart from the fact that it’s really handy for travelling I’ve never had any issues with using it as both shampoo and normal soap but maybe I’m doing it wrong and I should have dedicated conditioner and shampoo

Judas goat! Judas goat! Judas goat!

They’re probably just leveraging the good will they have as the plucky underdog. I personally found the app clunky and that the videos loaded really slowly, but I don’t blame them for offering a lifetime subscription.

Either that, or it’s just price anchoring and they weren’t expecting anyone to spend $300, but it made the other options look cheaper

If an app asks me to rate it, or checks what my rating is going to be before sending me to either a feedback form or Google Play, depending on my response, then it instantly gets a 1 star review

SmartTube is some of the greatest software ever made

Heathrow is literally 1984, I hate the place

The only way I have found to get reliable IPTV services is to post on local Facebook groups. There is invariably a few middle-aged guys who can’t spell properly and who can you “mate” who will know which service works best in your area and be resellers of said service. A few 24-hour trials and you can usually figure out what suits you best.

I suspect that these big corporations were advised by banks and the government to scale back work from home policies to avoid triggering a real estate market collapse in cities by vacating expensive office space en masse. This could cause defaults by landlords and a housing crisis as workers no longer need to pay premiums to live near offices. An exodus from cities would crater housing markets, which would severely damage the overall economy. Thus corporations are pushing for office returns to shed some staff but also to avert an economic crisis, despite the cost savings of remote work

Looks like Cinnamon is the way to go, thanks. I’ll give it a spin tomorrow, thanks for your help

Plenty of good info there, thanks for the thorough response. I’ll probably go the live USB route, which I’d forgotten was a thing. That way any hardware issues should be apparent pretty quickly

Yeah, there’s definitely a big sunk cost thing going on too

Absolutely, this return to office stuff has been an absolute gift for CEOs wanting to downsize, it’s the perfect fluffy PR way to turn the thumbscrews. Factor in the popular idea that you’re a slacker if you don’t work hard all the time and you basically have public support too.

I’m sure plenty of people will just suck it up and view the past few years as a very extended break from office nonsense and commuting hassle, but enough will jump ship to fill quotas

What version on Linux is most like Windows? I’m not a gamer and nearly everything I do runs in a browser so compatibility isn’t going to be an issue, but any time I’ve tried to migrate over it’s been a nightmare of weird errors and non-stop troubleshooting

I travel a lot and I swear I’ve never seen the same shower design twice. There’s so many different freakin’ ways to deliver a stream of water to your head and they nearly all require some level of finessing. I’m assuming it all stems from an 1800s court case about patents but fuck that judge and everyone involved that day

Exactly, it’s total garbage. I’ve been training the algo for years, no way I’m giving that up

I leave it on, the suggestions are good as far as I can tell. What’s everyone’s beef with it?

I don’t get the YouTube hate in general. It’s much more interesting than Netflix or TV so I’m happy to pay, although I pay Argentina rates courtesy of subscribing while connected to my VPN and I use Sponsor Block to skip the in-video ad reads. It still counts

What’s the joke here? The description reminds me of nearly everything I’ve tried to do in Linux over the years, and I’m not a Linux user because every time I try to do anything it’s a huge odyssey of searching and troubleshooting and all that sort of stuff. Is that the joke? Or just the fact that viruses don’t work on Linux?
