  • I see a lot of these threads praising loops and i have never been able to use it effectively despite my efforts. =( and I have really wanted it to.

    I am curious about the length restriction as well. I wonder if these are all things they’re going to address and fix. but you’d think they’d have done all that before making announcements and whatnot.


  • is this like some strange form of trolling? where you’re trying to be a super hated account?

    or do you genuinely not know that you annoy people. or do you know it annoys people and you’re a reverse troll? cause I can’t believe that you haven’t discovered how fruitless it is to put that symbol in your comments.

    it doesn’t hurt any scrapers in the slightest. it only annoys real people. there’s no way you haven’t figured it out by now, right?

    I’m trying to understand if this is just some kind of social experiment or not. cause if it is, the results are quite plain.

    did they fix the feed and algorithm issues yet? or is it still doing the thing where it shows you the same feed every time you open the app.

    edit: just reinstalled to check. it doesn’t seem to have been updated since February and the feed issue still persists. that is a shame. I hope they can fix it.






  • the speck of dust hasn’t been engineered to be comfortable on the surface of the eye like a contact lens. a contact lens can be felt, but not the same way a spec of dust can. they’re medical devices. they’re made to be on your eye comfortably.

    they don’t feel strange or irritating when you blink. and after a few days wearing them, most people don’t notice them. i typically only notice mine if I haven’t blinked in a long time and they kinda can feel a bit dry or cold. or I notice them if I’m very tired and have been wearing them all day.







  • you couldn’t pay me to go backwards in time, sorry!

    see I was around before the age of the smartphone. growing up, I thought my cassette Walkman was the most revolutionary thing ever. and when PDAs were new, I would dreaammm about everything being on one electronic device.

    smart phones have given me a freedom that younger me never had.

    i no longer need to carry a notebook/memobook around, because I have powerful software on my phone that not only let’s me note-take, but index and SEARCH my own notes. from my pocket.

    i don’t need to carry the 3 novels im reading at the moment because they’re on the ereader app in my pocket.

    contacts, games, all my news sources, photos, videos, all my media.

    to me, this is still revolutionary tech and it has only improved my life

    i think we are seeing a rise now of adults who were raised as iPad kids who never had to carry all their shit around the way us older individuals have. so they naturally would want to get away from it because they’ve known no different and they never had to live another way before that point.

    its an understandable mentality from that one standpoint. but no, I will never give up my smart phone. i understand the reasons for those that do, but some of us don’t really want to go backwards.
