no proof, but it can be attributed to a kind of addiction and dopamine association.

it is not that you start hating the average food, but your mind misses that dopamine hit the good food carries. think of it like a withdrawal like effect where your body is now conditioned and has a “higher bar” for things.

“if you dropped a coin (or other small object) and you can’t find it anymore, drop another coin and see where it goes.”

i think there’s something called aspnet, dolphin and badger.

also cowball for the artistic license.

this somewhat balances out feeds I missed on my subscribed list.

my very eager mother just served us nine

rip pizzas

portable swamp cooler. it leaked and makes your carpet a swamp and maybe cooler. also luggable.

roller-type kitchen knife sharpener. the finer edge sharpener actually dulls the knife more.

tile tracker. it was so big, I didn’t lose it. I also hate the concept because it works like insurance does.

yup, good suggestions.
there’s lots of them apparently.

same reason a painting or drawing is named, i guess.

no. but i try to forgive myself for not taking the opportunity. imo, it is a skill that forms through a lot of interactions. a form of rizz. and to me, it doesn’t come as natural.

yes. but to so as not cause miscommunication problems, maybe keep it to close people who are in the know of what you mean.

and it gets more fun if there’s an alert for an impending amber alert

screenfetch?

merriam-webster has something on the lower part of the page.

it seems very close to what others have said: dork is the generally awkward fellow. nerd is the hobbyist who sacrificed socializing to the art. geek are the nerds with some niche circle.

why go for RAMs when the constitution says ARMs…

and no more bits or bytes too, double bytes small or quadbytes regular size all the way.

• kilo bytes is a grand

• mega bytes is a venti

• giga bytes is a grand venti

• terabytes is a doble venti

really large amounts of ARM is a ton

for the ones missing the marvelous HTML, I gotchu bro:

gentoo takes a long time. but currently they started shipping out binaries – and with a more recent architecture too (x86-64-p2 or - p4) which helps a lot as compared to building your own Libre office.

they got good guides as well. I got to use one for troubleshooting even if I use a diff distro.

Thank you very much! These answers are very insightful.

I think these points brought the point home on why some of their decisions seem absurd for me:

ads are common in mobile games and mobile games are trying to sell to people already playing mobile games

Once they’ve peaked, they’ve “served their purpose” in the companies eyes.

On top of that, by the time the game comes out, people likely won’t remember the ad, and they very likely won’t remember it was a bait.

mobile player pool is gargantuan

the market research aspect makes sense. but why go the roundabout way of surveying? isn’t it counterproductive to lose users this way?

where’s hackerman when we need him?
