Burgers are greasy, that doesn’t bother me. Brioche buns are sweet and too thick, that’s what bothers me.

Stop putting sugar in everything. I don’t want a sweet Burger

Only for marketplace. Haven’t posted anything in years, and before that never anything meaningful.

You should never do anything that isn’t fun. Everything is fun if you make it so.

Line from a solid song by a local band i found when i was 16. Oddly enough, it never occured to me how much i liked it as a name until a decade later.

My industry is full of pseudoscience and liars. I can’t fault them for not knowing, and probably came off as more harsh than i intended.

I correct patients all day, and got pretty burned in the long long ago on reddit by people who “know better” patting themselves on the back and getting my factual information downvoted to oblivion.

Focusing close regularly doesn’t make you short sighted, not getting enough tourquoise light on your retina from staying inside makes your eye keep getting longer instead of stopping when the focal point is correct. Well, that and genetics.

And losing the ability to see near as you age has nothong to do with pressure. Your lens is constantly adding new layers to itself to stay clear, and after 40 it’s become so thick the muscles that pull it to accommodate near vision can’t stretch it enough. By 58 it doesn’t stretch at all any more. That’s why everyone eventually needs bifocals/progressives.

Don’t state things as fact if your not sure of them.

I’m a 6’5 reasonably muscular male running two offices entirely staffed by women, except for two gay guys. There’s no masculine competition, which is nice, and communication is much more personal. Due to my strict rule of not considering any of my coworkers potential partners, I make sure I’m as supportive as possible without being threatening to any of the girls or their respective partners. It’s very interesting seeing how patients act towards me vs the other workers. They seem to treat me as an authority figure, and take what I say at face value, even if I’m just confirming what one of the women already told them. The girls have to convince patients they’re professional and not jerking them around, where I can just state something and they’ll believe me. I’m viewed as a scientist, and the women are viewed as salesmen or interns.

I mentioned my stature earlier, because it’s led to me being the office protector. I will defuse situations, defend my workers, and even fire patients if they offend anyone else in the office. If a rep for a company talks down to any of the women, or only wants to speak to me, I won’t do business with them.

Ive hired men before, but they never last. They either make the girls uncomfortable, try to start relationships, or try to butt heads with me as if they hold authority over anyone else. It’s very easy to see how someone with less feministic views could easily take advantage of the situation I’m in.

Edit: they’re always fucking cold though. 73 degrees is not fucking cold Donna. I’m wearing a suit. Put on a sweater.

Another species is very useful for unity, not necessarily for us to band together against, but because a proper intelligent alien kind of invalidates every religion. All the conflicts from culture clashing suddenly become pointless.

Or at least racists will have something else to look down on.

Yeah. Norm core for basics, but I’m generally dressing in layers anyway. I don’t think I’ve worn only a t shirt outside the house in years.

When trying on frame initially, Oakley’s actually will be more comfortable due to their temple style, although after your lenses are made any frame will be adjusted and balanced to be exactly as, if not more comfortable with less squeezing. (Unless the place selling the glasses doesn’t care about fitting, which is more common than you’d think)

I’m a licensed advanced optician that owns three practices, I’ve designed and manufactured my own line of frames, I’ve helped design progressive lens forms, I have taught classes at eight out of the last 12 vision expo’s. My capture rate of every premium product sale is miles above the national averages.

The only brand I call in more warranties in on than Oakley is Nike. Their zyl frames use plastic rivets that regularly snap and can’t be tightened. The temples stretch out over time, which is normal and wouldn’t be an issue except the metals use either single bar spring hinges that will keep loosening or monel flat rivets that can’t be replaced.

They are not the worst brand by any means, but if you think you’re paying for anything other than the name, you’ve been sold.

Guys wearing florescent orange or yellow knee high socks with Adidas slides and shorts that was all over a few years ago.

Dudes setting flat billed hats on top of their head way too high.

Yeti stickers on trucks. Glad you like your cooler dude.

Repping brands. Like tshirts that say Oakley or under armor on them. Why are you wearing a shirt that says under armour, but isn’t the actual under armour? You paid them to advertise for them you rube. Seeing Oakley gear kills me, I have very in depth inside knowledge of the optical industry, and Oakley’s aren’t even good glasses. You paid too much for the privilege of looking like a tool.

I may be interested in being a dj/random song info guy. I’ll have to think about it for a few days, and see if I can make a regular appearance.

In the settings menu for flauncher there’s a button for Android options. If you open that you should be able to adjust the picture settings, it at least find the Bravia settings that can control the picture.

I believe that’s exactly the case with most of them, which is why I wanted an android in the first place. It’s a known architecture.

I limited the background processes when I was customizing everything, so because of that apps take about 2 seconds longer to open, because they weren’t on standby. Fewer background things mean it starts up a lot faster though. The apps all work as they should.

The ADB commands I used just disable the default launcher, it’s still there if something goes wrong. If you switch over and something doesn’t work, you just send the same command with ‘enable’ replacing ‘disable’ and it’s back to normal.

65". Got it at Costco for around 600$ in 2021. I fought with the regular os after some updates about a year ago. Before that Google wasn’t shoving shit down my throat all day. I’ve been considering rooting it for a while, but finally got the motivation today.

I did the use button mapper. Little finicky at first but now it’s great. It’s probably worth noting, in case someone bumps into this later, the exact commands in the link you posted didn’t work for me, I needed to search for a different launcher removal command, since I’m not on a chrome cast, or maybe Google just changed they’re launcher name/location. The appwraith remover worked, just not for the actual launcher. I’ll rack down what I did later and update this with my command.
