    To build off this. Part of why people, who come off as reasonable and decent in person, can get so…very…VERY unhinged online is that

    Tap for personal opinion

    you don’t have to see the reaction of the people who read/hear what you’re putting out there. Even in places where you don’t actually have any real anonymity, there’s an assumption that because no one is in the room with you while you madly smash away at your keyboard…well… People used to say there’s no girls on the internet…I feel like most people just type whatever like there’s no PEOPLE on the internet…

    TL;DR - can’t see people being disgusted with what you just said.



  • HA! MAY CAR IS WAAAAAAAY NEWER THAN YOURS!

    …2006.

    When I bought it, it had an even cheaper android stereo in it. When I was looking for a interim replacement before I spent over £100, I found the one that was installed when I bought it…for £12.
    Ended up with an ~£80 deck that came with a half decent reverse camera, which was almost the only requirement for me other than Bluetooth.
    I honestly kinda wish it had come with a tape deck, being on the edge of old I still have a bunch of tapes. Used to have a load of CDRs, but rot got them. 🤷
    I have about 60Gb of music on my phone, I’ll occasionally switch some of it out for new stuff. I had Google Play Music back in what is now considered “The Day” and now I pretty much refuse to use any streaming service.



  • TBF, I absolutely should have used them, but I was cooking for 25 people, and honestly totally forgot about them. I was rushing about with the BBQ, into the kitchen switching out cooked pizza for uncooked and trying to catch a sip of beer in between all that… As a result the salmon came out amazing, slow smoked at 60° for 3 hours because I totally forgot about it until the wife would occasionally say: the smoker’s not smoking!
