I never get the first one and rarely the second one. If it says to click all the squares with motorcycles and it’s just the one big picture, am I supposed to click stuff like the tire and mirrors? I always do and never get it right. Then most of the time they ask me to identify motorcycles, they show me motor scooters and what am I supposed to do then? I think I just need to get one of these bots to do it for me.
Yeah, totally agree. It worked really well for me at first, but I think my body is used to it now and I need to diet.
It’s for sure my diet. I eat alright, but really suck at dieting, which is why I took up running nine or so years ago. It was great at first and I lost 70lbs but now I’ve gained at least 40 of that back and still running a lot.
This works for the first few years but here I am in my 40s, running 1000km per year and still gaining weight.
“Nurse, can you bring me the big needles?”
I agree and I also wouldn’t mind so much if the ads were in proportion to the length of the video and at natural breaks. I don’t want to watch a 30 second ad to see a 15 second video.
It’s disheartening that he didn’t learn that when you’re poor, even when you start to make progress, everything needs to continue to go your way because if you hit one bump in the road you need to start all over again. It’s too bad his “start all over again” was just “go back to being rich” and he really failed his social experiment.
Wow, I didn’t even realize that it requires a $24.99 per month plan from T-Mobile for voice, texting and data. These companies are getting really brazen.
That’s not a bad idea, but why not just integrate that functionality into a smartwatch?
I used to feel the same, but they do fit a bit of a need for me. They work great as a silent alarm so you don’t wake up anyone else in your room, you don’t have to take your phone out to check time or notifications, and health and fitness tracking is better than what a phone can offer.
Yeah, I can’t imagine they thought this would be a serious product.
I could have told them this was a dumb idea from the start; creating something that doesn’t fill a need, is just another device to carry around and could just be an app on a phone that we already carry around, just to cram it down people’s throats “because AI,” is probably not a good business plan.
If words flash in front of my face, I end up reading them
It never works like that for me; if the subtitles are on, I can’t distract myself from them whatever I do and end up reading every sentence.
I totally agree. The subtitles are so obtrusive that I’m unwillingly forced to look at them and it distracts from the video. They also completely ruin comedic timing. My wife, however, needs the subtitles on, so I live in a subtitle household now.
I’ve never had a problem generally understanding the dialog even with the terrible sound mixing, but the subtitles have ruined a bunch of jokes and completely block things I need to see on the screen very frequently.
I’ve been using it as my main search engine for around a year now. I accidentally used google today to look up “best screwdriver sets” and the results were all ads instead of results with screwdriver set reviews. I put the same thing in DuckDuckGo and immediately got relevant results.
That’s how it is by me too; very few lines open with an actual person. I’d prefer not interacting with anyone, but the self checkouts are just a reason to hire fewer people. Years ago, they used to have two people at every register at grocery stores; one to ring people up and the other to pack the bags up. You rarely see this anymore unless the cashier is being trained.
In addition to that, on the occasions that I do use self checkout, I almost always have an issue with one of the items and then the one person they have overseeing ten checkout lanes needs to finish what they’re doing and come over to me just to fix the issue so I can finish scanning the rest of my stuff.
So when I’m using self checkout, I’m doing unpaid labor just because the store wants to increase profits and it often ends up being slower depending on how much produce I’m buying.
If they didn’t want me to sniff the vent fumes, they shouldn’t have pointed the vent nearly at my face.
That’s definitely a fair take on it. It’s definitely all in the movie, just maybe not the primary focus of the movie. He’s definitely a selfish bastard throughout most of the movie and then realizes it at the end and is redeemed.
I bet you make incorrect assumptions about people you don’t know regularly.
