True, I haven’t considered going more than once…

2 hours? As a non-american, I sometimes forget how car-centric and spread out American cities are… I knew Americans drive a lot, but 2 hours? Please tell me that’s the combined back and forth trip, not each way…

A few hours? How far do you live from your work?

Thanks. Always leave a paper trail… especially toilet paper trail.

Write an email to HR, leaving a paper trail in case they retaliate…

If they don’t solve this issue, I would just go home to take a dump and come back without clocking out… If they complain, I would tell them they need reasonable toilet paper.

You might get fired for it, so I would start applying for other jobs before attempting this.

Are you sure this is a typo and not intentional? This is pretty awesome.

Oh yeah, I have been speedrunning my showers for most of my life, and no one ever told me I was doing it wrong. Only discovered the proper way to shower after seeing a professional car wash… Lol.

First off, not everyone who doesn’t wear deodorant smells, and secondly, some people shower regularly and use deodorant and still smell.

The diet, genetics, and what kind of bacteria live on your skin will affect the body’s odor. I struggled with body odor for years before I discovered that I was showering incorrectly. I learned that after lathering the soap and getting covered by it, you’re supposed to let it sit on the skin for a while before scrubbing and rinsing; this discovery which many consider obvious was new to me, and it stopped my body odour completely to the point I don’t need deodorant at all by simply showering with a correct technique.

The problem is that they don’t get hints at all… they are too dense.

Exactly man… fewer floods, more biodiversity, they look nice which is better for mental health and reducing hypertension (the number one risk factor correlated with deaths), some of them give you fruits or nuts to eat… Trees are awesome.

I think any city should strive to have at least as many trees as the number of people living in it.

Wait till you’re a billion years old, I’m exclusively attracted to supermassive black holes now…

This guy is the actual manifestation of mayonnaise.

A wizard is never late, nor is he early; he is born precisely when he means to.

up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A.

As a guy with misophonia, noise cancelling earbuds are preserving my sanity.

I’ve seen enough of his videos to know he is absolutely bonkers.

Lucid dreaming every night, I control every facet of it, including PoV, though I’m usually in first person perspective.

I’m very well aware of that and I never meant to imply that lightning predates USB 3.0, however, the biggest complaint that people had about lightning is that it’s limited to USB 2.0 speeds. My comment was pointing out that it would have been very strange for Apple to make the lightning port USB 3.0 when the iPhone 5 had such slow storage read/write speeds, and no user accessible filesystem. Most phones at the time used Micro-B at USB 2.0 as well, and a year later, the Note 3 came out with a USB Micro-B with 3.0 speeds, but that was very rare (I’m not aware of any other phone with USB Micro-B with that wide 3.0 connector).

USB 3.0 speeds on phones only became common with the Type-C connector, not prior to it.

I’d hardly call F-Droid dangerous, these apps are generally safer than many apps on Google’s Play Store. Sure, if you get some apk files from some shady website for the purpose of piracy, you are likely to get malware, but stop acting like installing apps outside of the default appstore is some dangerous and irresponsible thing. Your phone is a computer that lives in your pocket, treat it like you would treat a PC and you’ll be fine.

Lightning existed before USB-C, and was reversible while everyone else was using Micro-B. Also, storage on the iPhone 5 was so slow that it wouldn’t make much of a difference, I doubt it would even saturate USB 2.0 bandwidth. While lightning wasn’t very forward thinking of Apple when it comes to bandwidth, keep in mind that at the time, you couldn’t even access the file system on iOS, and the files were ridiculously small compared to today.

Two years after Apple introduced the Lightning port, the USB-C spec was published, and there are some Apple engineers who contributed to the specifications of USB-C. Apple quickly adopted it for the Mac, but it was clear that they were hesitant to switch the iPhone in 2015… they could have easily done it, but chose not to.

I don’t know why they chose to keep the lightning port for so long (ego making them not want to admit that they designed a port that wasn’t very future proof?), but for the first two years, it was more convenient than the only competition at the time which was Micro-B.
