One jump, one whistle, and one fart was the highest level of entertainment at the time I guess. I’m glad human entertainment has evolved beyond the humor level of my six year old son.

Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It's disturbing how we as a society are okay with ad companies weaponsing psychology36·1 year agoInteresting thoughts. I’d like to know how many people feel compelled to make a purchase because they see an ad rather than because they actually need or want something. My assumption is that this number is very low, but I can only speak through my own experience in my life and those who I’m close to. If someone has a sickness, I’m not sure we can blame an ad for their decision making. My wife is bipolar and has had episodes of excessive spending ($15K in a week once), but I don’t blame the name brand items she purchased or restaurants she went to, she just has a condition that needs outside help.
It’s preparing you to do the same for work.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Bay Area@lemmy.world•San Jose votes to permanently keep San Pedro Street as pedestrian mallEnglish7·1 year agoFor anyone that isn’t familiar with this street, it’s one block length of the street. It was only used to drive into a parking garage which can be accessed on the other side of the block, and closing it must have like a 0.1% negative impact on traffic.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Cities: Skylines 2 developers have noticed 'a growing tendency of toxicity in our community'English122·1 year agoIts the internet though. I don’t know of a place on the internet where there’s no toxicity.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Being forced to download the Reddit app onto my phone to view any 'NSFW' post, even though I'm on my desktopEnglish21·1 year agoProbably just need to sign in. But if you don’t have an account already, then it’s shitty that they force you to use the app to create an account.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Android@lemmy.world•The S23+ is too bright and not bright enough at the same timeEnglish23·2 years agoGo to screen mode in settings, slide the slider more towards the warm side. Go to advanced settings, change the white balance settings as you see fit.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We should rename Solar to Patriot Power to make it palatable to the right58·2 years agoOnline, there’s always this division and blame on either the left or right. In my real life experience amongst friends, people are more willing to have a normal conversation about different opinions without all the outrage like I see online.
I do recall sales on the old reddit app, but I’m not sure how long ago that was as as I purchased it so many years ago.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•China flies 103 military planes toward Taiwan in a new high of activity the island calls harassmentEnglish141·2 years agoGoogle any of the following:
- China’s youth unemployment rate
- Deflation in China
- Housing crisis in China
- Economic slowdown in China
- Manufacturing leaving China
Those are just the ones off the top of my head.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A New Low: Just 46% Of U.S. Households Subscribe To Traditional Cable TVEnglish5·2 years agoMust be a regional thing. Comcast has always had separate cable and intenet packages where I’m at.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•What do you use Best Buy/ Big Box Electromics Store for?English1·2 years agoIt’s still $50 free dollars, just wait for a sale or clearance on something you wouldn’t otherwise spend your own money on.
We use the same technique but instead of bins, we have hanging closet organizers.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•What if public transit was like Uber? A small city ended its bus service to find outEnglish627·2 years agoI see, yes that’s a good point, but I’d guess that’s not the goal of this program. Not sure if that’s a goal of any transportation agency, at least not that I’ve heard, but it should be.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•What if public transit was like Uber? A small city ended its bus service to find outEnglish1760·2 years agoWhat makes this a bad idea? Sounds much better than busses to me. It’s on demand, not on a fixed route, gors anywhere in the town, and is still the price of a bus ride.
A show called Snowfall touches on a CIA agent working to bring in cocaine to the US to fund anti-communist militias in South America. Good show overall. Not the best, but interesting.
