Lodespawn,

Antihistamines will stop the headache, can I also suggest a breakfast carbonara? (Do NOT use cream like some sort of maniac, fry bacon (or pancetta) and onion (and maybe mushrooms) in oil, grate some parmesan (or pecorino), boil the pasta for 10 minutes, lightly whisk a couple of eggs when the pasta is almost done, drain the pasta, mix the whisked egg, fried delights and cheese through the pasta, season, devour.)

Lodespawn, (edited )

Also before you fry the bacon, onion and maybe mushroom you should chop them up ..

Lodespawn,

Viewing via kbin on Firefox mobile, the interface just automatically makes the image fit the width of the phone, it's longer than the screen but that's what scroll is for, everything perfectly readable. If I had to guess I'd say that's a kbin feature over a Firefox feature, but could be a combo of the two.

Lodespawn,

Until quite recently Shell HQ was at the Hague

Lodespawn,

While there is an obvious issue with Musk clearly being in a position to know that this was going on and not shutting it down, it saddens me that there was (is) a team (multiple teams?!) of highly qualified medical scientists that were (are) psychopathic enough to actually do this horrific shit over an extended period of time. Everyone involved should be stripped of everything dear to them and placed in a small dark hole for the rest of their miserable lives.

Lodespawn,

You read the account of what those animals went through and didn't feel sick? If that's the case then whatever sky fairy you're thanking has not helped you become a good person. Maybe seek some help to deal with your lack of empathy?

Animals will always play a part in medical testing but effectively torturing a number of animals for months on end is well shy of a well constructed ethical experiment.

Lodespawn,

Prison systems around the world, and particularly those in America, routinely strip people of everything they earn and put them in dark holes for significantly less. The people doing these things know what they are doing and continue to do it without working to correct the issues. Torturing animals in a regulated test setting is well beyond carrying some weed or the mistake of being black and in the wrong place.

I'm all for rehabilitation, but how do you rehabilitate people who have decided torturing animals for extended periods of time is okay?

Lodespawn,

Choc milk aside that looks like dog food. If you're going to eat meat at least learn to cook it properly. No self respecting boy (or girl for that matter) should be inflicting this abomination upon themselves. Why do boys apparently have to hate themselves like this?

Lodespawn,

I assume it was only implemented under the provision that it doesn't apply to MPs, Lords or any of their special pals.

Lodespawn,

I don't see any of the notification problems, I assume you've tried logging out and logging back in again? Closing any kbin tabs and restarting your browser? Checked if disabling your adblocker for the site makes a difference?

Lodespawn,

I love how happy these little ding dongs are to be compared to fruits

Lodespawn,

"QUICK LOOK OVER THERE AT THOSE PROBABY SEX CRAZED PEDO TRANS PEOPLE, and certainly don't look over here at these actually sex crazed GOP friendly pedos .."

Lodespawn,

PIA has had a pretty great track record over its life time, I had no problems with their service for the years I used it, but it's current owners are a little hard to trust.

Lodespawn,

That looks about as infuriating as the imperial system ..

Tens of thousands at Burning Man told to conserve water and food after heavy rains leave attendees unable to leave Nevada desert (www.cnn.com)

Tens of thousands of people attending the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert are being told to conserve food, water and fuel as they shelter in place in the Black Rock Desert after a heavy rainstorm pummeled the area, festival organizers said....

Lodespawn,

It would be really nice if everyone just ignored the rebrand and kept calling it twitter.

Antarctica is missing an Argentina-sized amount of sea ice -- and scientists are scrambling to figure out why | CNN (www.cnn.com)

As the Northern Hemisphere swelters under a record-breaking summer heat wave, much further south, in the depths of winter, another terrifying climate record is being broken. Antarctic sea ice has fallen to unprecedented lows for this time of year.

Lodespawn,

Isnt "one Texas" one of the standard nonsense units used in the United states? Why aren't they using that? Or can they only use it when it's 1, 2, 5 or 12 texases and otherwise it's Argentina's?

Lodespawn,

Do we just switch to Texans at that scale? So like 6 Texans?

Lodespawn,

Well that's terrifying, 1 Argentina is 4 Texases

Lodespawn,

Give or take a few Texans ..

Lodespawn,

In Australia the cashier typically bags your groceries. It was a shock for me when I first moved to the UK and the first cashier I was served by was like "Are you ready?!" And then started hurling a barrage of groceries to at me to bag.

Lodespawn,

I don't think it's that suitable alternatives that could make a lot of headway into limiting the problem dont exist, it's more that a lot of people are making a lot of money from the status quo and have a vested interest in ensuring the status quo remains. You can bet your bottom dollar that if those people had found a way to continue the gravy train with the alternatives then they would. Eventually they are going to have to consider that if society collapses due to their actions that the currency they are accumulating will be worthless without the societies that dictate its value. I don't think that will happen until we start seeing some of the climate change chickens come home to roost. It's going to be unpleasant for a lot of people and might be too late.

Lodespawn,

I've been rolling a Fitbit Charge 5 for the last year and a half and it's been pretty great, had an issue at six months and Fitbit replaced it, no issues since. Good screen, reliable tracking, 1 charge lasts 5 days to a week, no issues with sync.

Lodespawn,

My wife has a Garmin (vivoactive 4s I think) and on paper it looked fantastic, in action she has had nothing but trouble. Terrible battery, ugly UI, ridiculous management app, nothing but sync trouble. Hopefully Garmin has picked up their game with newer watches.

Lodespawn,

I went curved and now the flat monitors at work are annoying because the far edges are too far away ='(

Lodespawn,

Ergh english AC plugs are garbage, built in 13A fuse? Fix your damn power network, Australian plugs are easily better.

Lodespawn,

Thanks for posting this, but I have some notes.

His first point is nonsense. The holes are big enough for a screw driver full stop. If I have two screw drivers then I can shock myself. Not only that, its a guaranteed shock because I'm now making a perfect path to earth. Simple fix: dont make the holes big enough for screw drivers. UK plugs are even worse than yankee plugs for this. Aussie plugs fix this problem.

Aussie plugs cover the second problem. The letter nonsense is nonsense. The fuse is dumb, as above, FIX YOUR DAMN HOUSE WIRING. The last bit about your plug falling apart is classic British ideology, stop building things that fall apart.

Its clearly better than EU or yankee plugs, but thats not a great selling point when its still garbage.

Lodespawn,

If the number of electrocutions per capita are the same then it's clear the fuse is doing nothing. The only reason to keep it is if you don't trust your domestic network, specifically the protection systems provided. If they are to code then why waste your manufactures time, and the time and space of your users continuing to require them.

My argument isn't born from patriotism, it's frustratration at years of having to use an inferior product only to have someone claim it's not only great but the best. Well, it's not the best, far from it, but at the end of the day I don't think I'll ever live in the UK again so shrug have fun with your garbage connectors =)

Lodespawn,

Maybe instead of filtering the client could do a merge and list the comment trees under one header grouped by the community/magazine they are posted to?

Lodespawn,

Does profile transfer even matter?

Lodespawn,

Far out, why the hell isn't firing a deadly weapon at a person not sufficient evidence that you bore them "ill will"?! The fact that she feared for her life when confronted by the person should only cement that evidence.

"This woman made me fear for my life so I fired my hugs and kisses gun at her in the hope that she would feel my genuine love and empathy for her. I was not aware that my hugs and kisses were so powerful they could kill a person. I am sad we shall never be the best friends that I dreamt of as I racially and physically abused her small children."

I spilt coffee all over my keyboard this morning and it’s all sticky, since it didn’t break can I just pour water on it to help the stickiness?

I know that sounds like a stupid ass question. I have the Logitech wireless mx keys. I wiped the keyboard down so the surface of the keys aren’t sticky, just hard to press down and some have a spasm....

Lodespawn,

70% isopropyl alcohol is better for cleaning than 95%, water is a key factor in the reaction.

Lodespawn,

Any KBin app would have to pretty special, the mobile page is pretty great as it stands. It's got a few small bugs but none of them are showstoppers.

Lodespawn,

@CoderKat I'm pretty sure there are apps that let you do this. In my experience they tend to be buggy and slower than the dedicated hardware.

@Rdan33l

Long and short term, which features would you like to see implemented? (kbin.social)

For me flair is probably the most important. I follow a lot of organized sports and being able to quickly identify which team someone supports helps the conversation move along without having to write "as a fan of..." in every single comment. And this isn't a like talking shit, sports guy thing. It's genuinely extremely useful...

/kbin logotype
Lodespawn,

Could it be possible to have two kinds of boosts, anon boost or tracked boost? The standard default could be anon with a hover option for tracked, with the default being a setting that can be flipped.

Lodespawn,

Not sure if anyone is getting this problem or whether it is a KBin issue or a browser issue.

I get an issue when browsing on mobile (Firefox) and loading magazine headers under all. If I scroll down and load a few additional magazine headers, click on a magazine title to view it and then hit back to return to the list of magazines, the list does not return me to the place I was at in the list.

Instead it truncates the list back to first loaded magazine headers and leaves me viewing the random details normally positioned at the bottom of the all list. To get it to load more magazine headers I have to scroll back to actual bottom of the listed of initially loaded magazine headers. It then starts reloading headers as normal but I then need to scroll and reload all subsequent magazine headers to get back to my position in the list.

Lodespawn,

Is there a way to stop videos and audio from autoplaying? Browsing kbin on Firefox mobile and it keeps randomly playing some unknown audio.

Lodespawn,

Sadly I haven't yet, the same think happens to me, random news videos autoplaying, even when not on screen yet. I'm fairly confident there's no setting to turn off video autoplay on kbin. Sadly even if you tell Firefox to not autoplay videos the videos continue to play, the Firefox mobile settings seem to be limited in that respect though.

I wonder if turning it of on the desktop browser site settings and then syncing will fix it.

Lodespawn,

Hrmm I think I have automedia preview set to on. I've turned it off and will see if this fixes it. I say think as the UI for the kbin page settings isn't super clear what's on and what's off ..

Lodespawn,

Err well that maybe worked but it also stopped all images loading in the feed so not really helpful
