Flies serve many roles in nature. They help spread beneficial bacteria and mushroom spores. They are also food sources for various small animals, insects and arachnids. Sure they are annoying and creepy, but they have a place.
The plaque forms as a result of bacteria eating the sugars that stay on your teeth. Most dentists in my life have recommended brushing right after eating.
I HATE the shuffle button on Spotify. It used to be better. I have a Playlist that I used to listen to with the ‘enhanced’ shuffle. Spotify would add similar songs into the queue. It was nice. Now Spotify just plays the same 20 songs or so, over and over again. My Playlist has over 200 songs without even adding the variety into the queue. I’ve started actively removing songs because they are all I hear. This isn’t how listening to music should work.
My newer Vizio will not default to hdmi. It always brings up the menu, where you have to scroll through a bunch of ads to get to your apps and input options. The apps randomly change order. Sometimes you even get a pop-up ad when you first turn it on. I wish I had never bought the damned TV.
there’s no way to opt out
Yes there is a way to opt out. Just opt out of Facebook and Meta products all together.
Even when I had a reddit account, I would use Google to search, because reddit search feature is crap. The Google search would often result in me exploring and/or subscribing to a new community. So, for me, Google searches increased my reddit interactions.
I’ve noticed the same issue on many posts. I am using the app, liftoff. If I just refresh the page all the missing comments load. I don’t know if this works on other apps or in your browser, but it works for me.
It doesn’t help that they are using facebook-like tactics to try and force/coerce you to download and use their app. I recently was trying to find help getting through a difficult part of a game. Reddit seemed to be where most of the good user discussions were at. Reddit’s mobile page would give me a pop-up stating that this community was not “trusted” and that I need to view on the app or go to the Reddit front page. There was no option to ignore. Trying to close the pop-up would just send me to the front page. Luckily, I know about old.reddit. That’s going to go away eventually though.
I see the same thing. However if you go to the link to this post on kbin.social, you can see the other comments. It’s weird. https://kbin.social/m/technology@lemmy.world/t/371933 Edit: the hyperlink won’t display properly in this comment. You have to copy the whole link and paste it in your browser.
I’m pretty sure their main issue is that they don’t want to be the ones doing the age verification. Louisiana set up a state run verification system, and pornhub has continued to operate their site in the state. I don’t want porn sites to have my ID info.
Just get a Detroit Electric Model 82.![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/0f2bd490-6f5e-4817-90d8-97fe4710f00d.jpeg)
