There’s no copyright date on this one. If it’s the normal 80’s/early 90’s I wonder how many readers would have known what a futon was

If you use youtube on a mobile app rather than a browser, it doesn’t have an address bar

Can anyone say the s and the th in Isthmus? It’s making my tongue feel funny.

You joke, but one time I got woken up by what sounded like a Chinese lady complaining about batteries, and it turned out to be the low power alert on the cheapo import soundbar.

directus→derecho from “straight” to “right”

So that’s why “straight on” and “on the right” are the maddeningly confusable “a derecha” and “en derecho”. Such a pain when following directions.

I’m using an LG K9 right now. Works ok, but I’d prefer a smaller screen

I think they’re regional. I don’t remember seeing one either, but I don’t know if that’s because I haven’t encountered it, or because I didn’t notice.

Depends if you’re testing a mad hypothesis

Your original intent was to not need to replace tyres. If you still need to replace other parts just as often, you haven’t really improved on the problem.

It’s a mobile client for Lemmy

I would say “it’s on backorder”. You could verb it as “it’s been backordered”, but that feels a bit clunky somehow.

no, these are people who eat potato salad

I meant accessibility in the sense of, how difficult/messy/undignified is it to eat. But yes that too. I thought coconuts were brittle, and grapefruit were inedibly sour until I tried some in their country of origin.

Mangos are S tier on taste, but D at best on accessibility. Fruits that I rate highly for both taste and convenience are clementines, seedless green grapes, and those flying-saucer shaped peaches.

Aha! But you won’t be affected until time restarts. And since time has stopped for presumably the whole universe, nothing can happen to restart it.

You have the power to stop time.
🐵🐾 It stops for you, too.

I just sent you a message, then deleted it. Check if you can see it in your mailbox.

The ideal microwave would have

• a dial to set the timer
• NO OTHER CONTROLS!

Start/stop? Use the door. Clear? Turn back the dial. Power settings? Full power, wait, repeat. Everything else? Nobody uses it, nobody knows what it does, nobody kept the instructions. Get rid of it.
