Anon thinks about Google
  • My 5a just shut off while I was using it and wouldn't turn back on one month after warranty period. Google was going to deny a replacement until I bitched that each previous pixel I had had died or became unusable and I was going to move to iphone. They gave me a "one time exception" and sent me a replacement. I traded it for a 7 but if this one dies I'm done.

  • Mystery solved!
  • Hank Green can tell you the full mystery:

    tl:dw: We knew that's where baby eels came from but we didn't know how the adults got there or what the larvae looked like. Baby eel larvae was misidentified as another species and adult eel can take up to 18 months traveling at the bottom of the ocean to get there, during which time they grow their gonads which was another mystery.

  • Think of the children!
  • I don't understand the long wait list complaint. If I tried to see my Dr I would have to wait months. I routinely hear of people waiting over a year for specialists. In fact, my wife was scheduled to be medically induced for pregnancy due to health reasons and we had to wait day of because they were understaffed! We have to wait and we have to pay!

  • GNU-Linux
  • It's not a meme, people genuinely get upset about this. There was a post on a lemmy about the Comptia A+ study guide that had the question "What is GNU" with the answer of "It has to do with Linux" and people were writing essays on why this was not correct.

  • If you need me, I'll be over here banging my head on my desk repeatedly.
  • Man, I didn't think a hydraulic press could make a fossil so I looked it up and saw this article:

    https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/scientists-baked-fossil-24-hours-180969770/

    Title got me excited and they are just doing impressions. Which are fossils but not the re-mineralized ones I think of. So I was disappointed, but that's par for the course for any "proof" of creationism so I set myself up for that one.

  • Drones trespassing in my property
  • It's because it counts as an aircraft. Getting licenced to use your drone for anything more than "wooo, flyin mah drone" covers a lot of the same stuff a private pilot would know like reading the maps, airport landing procedure, and airspace. They treat it like an actual airplane. And you can't just start blasting at airplanes because they flew over your house. If it's doing more than just flying over it has to be addressed legally.

  • Anon gives back
  • Many restaurants let people pay when they pick up or get the food delivered. So doing this costs the restaurant money, not OP. That's why he's spoofing his info too, if he paid they probably wouldn't care enough to ban the number.
