I’m a genX dude, living in a genZ world. I love everyone. Be gay, be trans, be whatever. I love everyone until an individual proves they don’t deserve it. I don’t hate anyone based on groups, I hate people who are assholes.

Technology@lemmy.world•A web page that shows you everything the browser told it without askingEnglish
162·3 days agoIt got my location wrong. It got my GPU wrong. It said I never left the tab, even though I left it to start this comment. It said I moved my cursor 111 times in 74 seconds, which is absolutely false.
That site is just pointless. Pretty much the only things it got right were my time zone and my browser.
CHS is 100% a real thing, my wife has it. If she smokes more than a bowl a week, she will scromit. She developed CHS about 18 months after she first started smoking with me. I’ve been smoking for about 40 years, and I’ve never developed CHS. We’re not sure exactly why some people get it and some people don’t, but it is a real phenomenon that can happen to some cannabis users.
I’m pro-weed, pro-legalization, and generally in favor of personal freedom. But pot is not for everyone. It makes my wife incredibly sick. My (adult) daughter gets panic attacks from smoking pot, so she abstains.
It’s entirely possible. I could vomit 3 feet away from you, and all you’d hear is the puke hitting the floor. I developed the ability to stealth vomit when I was a secret alcoholic and didn’t want people to get suspicious.
Speaking from personal experience, I live in PA and I have a medical card (which is incredibly easy to get FWIW). I only buy lab tested dispensary bud. My wife developed CHS smoking with me. I did not develop CHS, and we were smoking the exact same product.
It’s probably different for different people. I smoke a fat bowl every morning, and sometimes a second one at night, and I’m fine. I’ve been smoking for about 40 years. My wife was smoking a gram or two a day for roughly 18 months, and she developed CHS. She took a month long t-break, and the symptoms went away. Now, if she smokes more than once a week, they come back, so she only smokes with me on Monday nights.

Technology@lemmy.world•More Than Half of Gen Z Users Cancel and Renew Streaming Services for a Single Title, Won’t Purchase Full-Price Video Games, New Study FindsEnglish
2·3 days agoGenX here, I have a streaming service (Paramount+) for exactly one reason: It comes for free with my Walmart+ account, which I use frequently. Every 6 months I switch between that and Peacock, since both are free and I can change my choice twice a year. So I watch what I want on Paramount+ for 6 months, then switch to Peacock for 6 months, rinse and repeat.
As far as a lifetime subscription to Nebula, I’ve watched way too many sites fail/die to consider a lifetime subscription to anything on the internet. They could shut the site down tomorrow, and now I’m out $500 ($300 if I happen to get a discount from a creator code).

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Explain Stalking to me. I have ex gf's I run into different times at the same stores. Some I keep running into store after store. Just coincidence. At what point is it stalking or something?English
11·4 days agoPeople generally date people who live somewhat close to them (I know, LDRs exist).
People generally shop in stores that are somewhat close to them.
I’m smelling coincidence.
I like to grocery shop on Tuesday mornings, since that’s double coupon day at my local grocer. I give my neighbor a ride to the store, so we can use her 5% senior discount and save even more money.
I see the same people at the store every week, because they shop on the same day I do, at the same time I do. We smile and wave, sometimes we chit chat about current events, or small talk like “Man, the weather’s crazy this week”, or “How did your son’s baseball game go?”.
I am not stalking them, they are not stalking me. We just patronize the the same store at the same time as each other.
If you think you’re being stalked, randomly change up your routine. Let’s say you normally go shopping on Saturday afternoons. Go on a Thursday morning. If you still keep running into them, maybe you’re onto something. If not, enjoy your new ex-gf free shopping experience.

Australia@aussie.zone•'Just not realistic': The Australians who worry they can't afford to have kidsEnglish
0·4 days agoNot quite the same thing, but my mom had my older siblings when she was between 15 and 21 years old. The delivery she had at 21 was complicated and traumatic. Doctors told her she’d never be able to have another child. 17 years later, she goes to the doctor and they find me in her belly. Life damn sure finds a way.

Technology@beehaw.org•More Liability Will Make AI Chatbots Worse At Preventing SuicideEnglish
21·4 days agoDon’t talk about your mental health with an AI seems like pretty basic common sense to me
And as we all know, people in the middle of a mental health crisis always act logically and make good decisions.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How prevalent are cash transactions in the USA?English
9·6 days agoThe only time I ever touch cash is when I buy weed, since the dispensary isn’t allowed to accept card payments. They have an ATM inside though, so I take the cash out of the ATM, and bring it to the counter. It spends maybe 2 minutes in my possession.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What somg deserves a stalker version like the Stalker version of Hey There, Delilah?English
7·6 days agoEvery breath you take is the prime example ofc
That’s actually a terrible example. OP asked what song deserves a stalker version. That song is already the stalker version.

136·6 days agoNot sure. I heard a podcast about one of his books
So you never actually read the book, but you’re spouting an opinion about the book?
I thought I left shit like this on reddit.
If you get your opinions from podcasts, your opinion is invalid. Read the source material.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Reddit is finally entirely dead to meEnglish
1512·7 days agoI was on reddit every day for damn near 20 years, and if I’m being 100% honest, the fediverse is 10,000% better. The only problem is that not enough people interact. I’ve never seen a post with more than like 200 comments. It feels a bit empty here. But, on the other hand, 200 decent comments is better than 2000 shitty ones.
Once this place gets a few more users, it’s gonna be the GOAT.

Technology@lemmy.world•Children are drawing moustaches on their faces to fool online age checks - and it's working; fake birthdays, borrowed IDs, and creative facial hair bypass age checksEnglish
99·7 days agoWhen I was little, my mom used to send me to the store with a note that said to sell me cigarettes, and that they were for her. When I started smoking, I used to reuse the notes to get my own smokes. I got my first fake ID at 13 so I could buy beer.
