I was driven mad by the iOS autocorrect before realizing it was using the apps I had installed to (aggressively) inform its autocorrect

It would change “20” to “2.0” because I had an app with “2.0” in its name and would change “50” to “5-0” because of a police scanner app I had. The rage I felt when I discovered that was the cause… Why would anyone at Apple think that’s a good idea? Why should “5-0” from “5-0 Radio Pro Police Scanner” take precedence over the literal number “50”?

Anyway, maybe you have an app with “OSS” in its name? Worth checking, especially if you’re on iOS. The only other way I’ve found to fix terrible autocorrect habits is completely resting it, which can be done in settings app > general > transfer or reset iPhone > reset > reset keyboard dictionary.

Yes, I’m just saying they are pushing the limits in that particular event.

Some examples:

The redbull rampage stuff is still super scary, the one where they do crazy DH mountain biking stunts. Only so much you can do to make those stunts safe…

It's a drug addict who's, at most, thinking she's on her phone none the wiser.

Nah, what people mean is there’s a moment where it looks like he realizes she is filming him towards the end of the video, after she adjusts her phone in a way that makes it a lot more obvious she is filming and not just using her phone normally, and he continues molesting himself instead of stopping.

Reddit really struggles with theory of mind.

High noon, Dva bomb, and Hanzo ult were all terrifying when I first played this game. It’s so silly in hindsight

awhaling

That would be way more intuitive lol. And if you want to ult just jump and press Q

awhaling

I feel like they should just give a time limit to the carry. If you can set up well enough to execute the sky noon with a short timer then maybe you’ve earned it, getting perma flight makes it completely brainless to setup.

Lot of people doing basically exactly that out near the Tetons. Seems pretty sweet, that’s probably what I would too if I was mega rich.

awhaling

Can you elaborate? Is it fake/exaggerated somehow?

No NSFW on a post with a guy getting shot point black and presumably dying?

Ultimately that’s the biggest issue with billionaires imo. Hoarding massive amounts of wealth is bad, but they wield disproportionate power over the rest of society.

The fact that the franchise model for chickfila is a bribery scheme for Republican politicians

then offer franchises in exchange for getting policy influence

What are you talking about?

Subs can toggle a setting that will collapse certain comments based on certain criteria. The setting is called “crowd control” and it will collapse comments based on the karma of the profile for this particular sub, if they are subbed here, and if their account is relatively new. I find it a really annoying setting, personally.

No sorry 5 hours is absurd, only makes sense if you’re on a meth bender.

I think making it a holiday would improve turnout substantially just by way of making it an explicit reminder.

They set bail relative to flight risk and proportional to the crime. You think a 14 is likely to flee the country and it’s critical she is in jail because of a petty crime?

Pretty hilarious response

You just long press the hyper on iOS to get an em dash. And you just long tap and drag the space bar to move the cursor, it works well. The autocorrect is atrocious though.

awhaling

Yup, I love using em dashes as a way to avoid having a ton of parentheses but it is annoying that now people think that’s means I’m an AI. I’ll still do it though. Alt-0151

I’ve never found it to be a problem tbh. I already indent the same way when working in languages that use brackets or whatever else.

Not sure what makes it harder to read tbh, I have my editor display vertical lines to show the current indentation level so maybe that’s why. If anything I find pairing brackets easier to mess up than indentation level but really I find both to be fine and of little consequence. The only thing that is annoying to me is someone doing weird and inconsistent formatting with brackets because brackets allow that to be possible.

I have a whole drawer full of stickers that I like but can’t decide where to put

awhaling

May I ask what you thought the doctor should've done differently? I'm genuinely curious

Engaged with what she was saying instead of repeatedly telling her she wasn’t shouting, since that was not what she was pointing out. Perhaps it is normal to feel like you’re shouting when you’re not used to that level of volume, that would make sense to me but I’m not sure given that she said he sounded normal. Either way, it would’ve been nice if he explained that and talked about that rather than repeatedly telling her she is not shouting in a somewhat rude tone.

I mean it literally says dick right there on the shirt

If Nazis can be hung for war crimes, so can Jews

You fixed their grammar for them, the comma came after the so, like this:

If Nazis can be hung for war crimes so, can Jews

Which is just atrocious. The other text stickers annoy me too, for example:

Like he I will kill you

I have to assume he made these stickers himself and that’s why they are all so atrocious.

awhaling

“May also be” being incredibly generous, because he definitely is.
