kiminewt posted:I don't understand why a reddit-style open-your-own-forum but with classic vBulletin isn't more popular. Other than being a very old-school thing wouldn't it be much better for small/medium communities than reddit/discord/FB groups? Yes, but most internet users are so computer illiterate that anything that isn't available via an app might as well not exist

But then it kept continually removing features & shittifying itself over and over to the point that I went from being an enthusiastic paid subscriber to cancelling my sub to not using it at all It's where people subscribed to other services go to count their scrobbles and other pointless statistics

caleb posted:Sure. Just do whatever you want. One feature of excel that I'm pretty sure is a bug, hasn't been fixed in years, and for which I haven't found any solution is that if you use "separate into columns" with any seeing other than default, it will gently caress up how copy pasting works EVERYWHERE and it will try to separate anything you insert into a worksheet without asking. So you have to do a fake separation on some random data to reset the settings first to make the copy pasting work properly again. Infuriating as gently caress.

Probably because records from the 60s were produced for vinyl. And digital just is better, there's no way around it so you won't find a magical modern release that sounds better on vinyl.

There was a recent poll I think on Discogs asking if people were actually listening to the records they were buying, and even in that self-selected enthusiast community most answered that they weren't, or only very occasionally, and a sizable share didn't even own a record player. I think that goes a long way to explain why publishers wouldn't be very concerned about quality.

I'd imagine any household supply store should sell them, but if not IKEA carries them as Bevara clips, and they are like 100 for 10 cents so it's not really worth hunting for deals, lol

MoonshineWilly posted:While we’re complaining about clothes, can jeans companies please stop putting flexible fabric in the jeans so that after a few washes the jeans have shrunken an inch? I understand that I’m buying cheapo jeans at Walmart, but if I wanted a size 32 instead of a 34, I would have bought the 32s. At least I can chuckle to myself about being too fat for fat jeans. Real denim shrinks, even if it's old fashioned non-stretch fabric. Some people prefer it and buy accordingly. If you want jeans that don't shrink, check if the brand you are buying used sanforized fabric. If not, but a larger size.

In bg2 you could stuff your newborn baby into the bag of holding Anyway, I'm positive this is just a case of positive feedback loop among a very insular and small circle of online creeps detached from reality, and not a fair assessment of why BG3 is a major game release (but one of the biggest games of all time? C'mon now)

Returning to Google - Google Translate. Used to be if you highlighted a word in the translator, it would automatically show you its dictionary definition and a list of possible translations to the other language. Now that absolutely essential feature is hidden behind a link that opens up a side window and only then are you allowed to ask for details and they are displayed in a much inferior vertical layout that makes them less legible.

Apparently the issue is that the landing page with the age warning is set to "do not index", and as it's the page that pops up for every new visitor, it causes the robots to ignore the site.

Wikia is a victim of a vicious pincer attack of the owners being incredibly, egregiously greedy on the one flank, and the kids who should be their primary demographic not knowing how to use a web browser so they never leave discord on the other flank.

Firefox with Ublock is all you need. If you switch to desktop mode, you can even play videos in the background, something Google has been selling as a feature of YT premium or whatever it's called. No need for any additional apps.
