Resonosity

I listen to podcasts all the time, ones by American, British, and Australia speakers, and I think my aural comprehension has actually improved from that. I have a friend just like you though. Has to turn on subtitles for everything.

Yeah I can't watch subs. I don't want to have to read for a movie. I want to see the faces and expressions of people or characters as scenes play out. If I'm reading subtitles, I'm not immersed and the story doesn't slap as much for me.

There are bus services in rural US where companies pick up people who've signed up. It's not even a market problem at this point.

People are just NIMBYs and averse to change, or at least the ones who show up to the local town council.

That's a terrible ping 😂

Unfortunately I go there still anonymously for when I need help or advice on certain life things, but I browse in a social media sense on Lemmy.

I've said this before: if there was a way to create more discoverability of Lemmy through a search engine, I'd choose it over reddit. Lemmy has different domain names based on server/instance, and that makes wild card searching impossible.

I know there are other search engines out there specifically for Lemmy, but that doesn't work for me.

Silver buckshot is how I describe it

Actions speak louder than words sort of thinking here, which I'm inclined to believe.

At the very least, politicians who have changed their stances on issues they voted or worked towards in the past should make reversing those changes part of their agenda. Shows good faith, and is beholden to other branches of the government at that point.

Yeah infinity war was better, I knew this the moment Thanos ripped that planet down with the power and space stones

For me it was performance. Google Chrome consistently couldn't handle the tab loads I would put on it after around 2022, despite my computer not really showing signs of degradation.

Since switching to FF, I can run the same amount of tabs with almost not hiccups or stuttering - what I'd experience with Chrome. Hell, Chrome would crash randomly and I'd lose all my tabs and would have to reload them.

Plus, sometimes to fix Chrome's poor performance I'd shut the program down entirely, upon re-launch the browser wouldn't even remember all of the tabs/windows I just closed (it used to). So, if I was doing research on something, Chrome would just not open certain windows back up after a hard reset, even if I CTRL + SHIFT + T and I check history. Madly infuriating.

FF opens all windows and tabs upon hard reset, no questions asked. Plus, the compatibility between PC and mobile is awesome: I can load up a tab from my phone that's on my PC super easily, which makes things useful for when I want to share web content with friends or family.

I seem to have woken up from my slumber of tolerating Chrome, and chose a better service instead.
