I disabled my voicemail. Problem solved.

Lord Wiggle@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why are American cops allowed to be morbidly obese?151·2 days agoFrom what I’ve seen, they don’t even learn about the law and often break the law by illegal detainment, searches and confiscation. Cops who served for over 20 years but don’t know people their rights. They often get minimal training while having to serve alone where everyone carries a gun. That’s asking for problems. And now cops in the US are militarized with heavy combat gear, while the majority is white and racist. So obesity is the least of the problems with US police.

How else would you get rid of those cocain crusts. A clean nose is a happy nose.
Lord Wiggle@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you care about up/down votes?3·4 days agoSometimes when I’m not doing too great and see loads of shit during my daily doomscrolling, I can get very synical, harsh and bold. When I get several downvotes, it can be a sign I’m in this negative depressing mood and I need to light up and be more open to others. It usually takes a while as first I fee like explaining myself making things worse, but in the end it let’s me think “hey dude, stop, take some distance. You’re not like this and your behavior is pulling you further down. Do something fun instead, stay away from comment sections and put away your phone completely and meet some friends or something”.
It’s a struggle sometimes.
Upvotes always help with the short endorphins boost, even though I don’t want to admit it. I got rid of all social media except YouTube and Lemmy. Yes, I’m I search of approval, again, not what I’m proud of. Because I want to get rid of this addiction and doomscrolling.
I agree. But you have to defend yourself against people who are violent against you for not being up to their standards and beliefs.
But if you are attacked for being who you are, feel free to use words like “please stop, don’t do this” instead of a brick.

Lord Wiggle@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•You probably don't remember these but I have a questionEnglish2·4 days agoHave you tried selling it and buying an older model with a tape deck, so you can insert a fake tape with a cord and aux?
Lord Wiggle@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•You probably don't remember these but I have a questionEnglish3·5 days agoWhy is it so hard for car makers to equip every car with basic needs like enough cup holders, USB and enough power plugs, Bluetooth, AND A FREAKING AUX PLUG *major facepalm
Edit: my BMW had one under the arm rest by the way. It’s also possible to have one in the glove box compartment.
I still have my first PC. It’s not the first one our family had, that was an old Macintosh and a DOS after that. But this is the first one I bought and built. It still runs, on windows XP. It’s a nice time capsule. It still has Medal of Honor Allied Assault on it.

Lord Wiggle@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•You probably don't remember these but I have a questionEnglish3·5 days agoAre you sure your car doesn’t have an aux in? Most cast do. Otherwise, maybe a USB to aux converter might work but I doubt it. So I’d go with a Bluetooth or FM transmitter like others adviced. If your car has Bluetooth, I’d go for that one as FM can have interference. Or just play music from your phone. No iTunes hassle and more storage.

Lord Wiggle@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•True Wireless Power is FINALLY here (building a TRULY wire-free desk setup)English188·6 days agoNice, enjoy your wireless nightmare.
Once I had a wireless Corsair Keyboard which sometimes received input from someone else’s keyboard (it typed entire sentences on my PC). Corsair said this was impossible, yet somehow words appeared on my screen while only my keyboard was linked. A neighbor logged in to something using his email address and password and it appeared into my word document. Like, wtf!
So I love my wires. I have no wifi, no wireless devices (except for my phone and game controllers) and I have no interference issues with anything (and I have a music studio in my living room with loads of synths).
Just do some proper cable management. It’s really fun to do and gives a clean look.

Lord Wiggle@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•My mom tells me I should cut dad off for cheating on her, am I a bad person for not wanting to do so?10·6 days agoYour mom shouldn’t use you in the fight with your dad. This is something which happens often, but ends up traumatizing the child.
No matter the fight they have, they should always be there for you as a parent and leave their stuff between them. You are not a pawn, you’re their kid. She’s your mother, he’s your father and nothing is going to change that.

Over here whenever you get a new provider, the voicemail is automatically enabled. You need to actively disable it or you are being spammed with messages from your mom saying “hi, yeah, so I tried to call, but you didn’t pick up… So, I’ll try again in 2 minutes. Bye!” “hi, yeah, so I tried to call you again, but still you didn’t pick up. Why aren’t you picking up? Anyway, I’ll try again in a bit. Bye!” etc.
