If you put the right terms in a search bar chances are you'll find the right one eventually. I doubt the sony support number is a very well kept secret.

Yes, Israel is a country founded by jews, for jews. That doesn't mean they get to be an ethnostate.

That implies violence against all non-jews that currently live there. That violence has already been demonstrated against the non-jews that were already there, the Palestinians, who have been pushed to the fringes of society and into the open-air prison that is the gaza strip. The flames of antisemitism simply cannot be fought with more flames of islamophobia. All people deserve the same rights and protections regardless of race or religion. That should be what Israel stands for, not "ethnic cleansing but it's okay this time because the historically persecuted people deserve to have their turn at creating an ethnostate".

Like, we understand why the Nazis were bad beyond the fact that Jewish people were their main target, do we not? Because that's how guys like Trump get into power with extreme anti-migrant rhetoric and an anti-democratic party behind them. Fascists can't sell their ideology on anti-semitism anymore; it backfires, in the same way Lee Atwater pointed out it does for the N word; so they sell it on xenophobia or islamophobia or whichever public enemy (out-group) they can create, and then further shrink their in-group when they gain enough power and/or disenfranchise enough people to do so without much recourse.

Fascism won't always be as obvious taking up the old flags of Nazis past; and as such it is incredibly harmful to reduce them to any single hallmark, such as the particular vendetta against Judaism that took place in WW2 (not to mention that those particular Nazis prefer there to be a Jewish ethnostate so they have somewhere to expel jews in pursuit of their own ethostates); it will take influence from and adapt to the blind spots of the culture where it spawns from.

It helps to use more than one type of soap (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face wash) and then also have to shave your lower extremities. I have an exfoliation cloth I use that I don't get quite clean without. I'm pretty sure that's not even a high maintenance routine when it comes to women.

Easily 15 minutes for me, 30 if I take time to enjoy (distract myself with) the warm water. That's not counting all the stuff I do after the shower. I have pretty bad ADHD though so time tends to melt away for me in general.

Sorry mate, best I can offer is less frequent showers and keeping an eye on the dirty bits a la mila kunis and ashton kutcher. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ my hair doesn't tolerate daily washing anyways.

Radioactive was so overplayed and the singer has such a distinct voice that I can't hear that voice anymore without reflexively gagging. I was a fan back in the day but once I hit that point, I never came back from it.

Agree. Excel is terribly inefficient if your goal is just storing data.

On the other hand I was genuinely torn between the pixel 7 pro and the pixel 7a when I lost my Pixel 5 because I wanted the pro features but the smaller size of the 7a. Ended up getting the pro because the size wasn't so far apart to make much of a difference, both were massive anyways compared to the 5.

But I bought second hand open box so maybe I'm not in the demographic that matters to Google.

man I just miss being able to type and reach all corners of the screen with one hand without having to be a contortionist or accidentally clicking on the one-handed keyboard that I never actually use because I've already resigned to always using two hands anyways

I've since realized that you can turn off the one handed keyboard completely but the fact that it has to exist at all still annoys me

Never heard of stations before today, wish I got a chance to try it though. Looks like it came out just after they removed the radio feature from the main app. Damn...

I tried Pandora, I think for a year or two. It's alright but after a while I started falling into the same artist bubbles I experienced with post-radio Spotify. It's owned by Sirius which isn't doing so well (and I can't stand their marketing practices) so I can't imagine they've got as much resources to devote as Spotify. The app is a little buggy and rudimentary but not completely lacking polish.

The behavior when your Internet drops out (like if you happen to go driving out in the sticks) leaves a lot to be desired, but you can save playlists so it's not a huge deal. There's this one live version of a song that just does not want to stay deleted from my playlist. Oh, and you can't use it outside of North America without a VPN. It's little stuff, it's not experience-breaking for the most part.

I do like that you switch between different algorithms for a radio station. Something like "fan favorites", "artist only", "deep cuts", maybe one or two more options. It's overall not a bad alternative, the bad parts obviously stick in my head better than the good but I'd probably still be using it weren't for my European friends all using Spotify and sharing songs/playlists with me like that.
