Their hybrid mattress is damn good for the price, especially when it's on sale. Not everyone can afford spending so much money. At the time I couldn't, that Ikea mattress was leagues ahead of the competition.

I did the same research and your second set of points are spot-on. Hybrid mattress with pocket springs are amazing.

The only physical store worth a damn is Ikea. Their hybrid mattresses aren't bad and decently priced. Although it tended to sag after a few years, it was still worth it for the price I paid.

I've since gone with Titan mattress and have been extremely happy paying a bit more for the increased quality and durability. I've had mine for 3 years and it hasn't shown any signs of wear.

Yeah, as an American I'm surprised it's only 60 percent. Pretty much anything I've ever seen available to me has been washed/graded/refrigerated. Maybe farmer's markets? But no way do they have 40 percent market share. I've occasionally had friends with coops so I'm not unfamiliar with having shelf stable eggs, though.

At this point I think the thing that'd freak out Americans the most is the whole thing about not needing to refrigerate. It's ingrained now.

3 main reason I cancelled Amazon:

1. Counterfeits. Can get the items direct for same price & shipping now anyways.
2. Shipping so unreliable.
3. My "new" items were quite often repackaged returns, usually missing parts.

How do you think Kelce Landed Taylor?

I mean, it's pretty simple for me in that I won't pay for a streaming service that has ads. Others might, but I don't care what others pay for. I left cable for this reason and I'll leave its next incarnation if that is to be.

Yup, it's so easy now to buy direct. Same price, same shipping, no counterfeits. One of the things that was really annoying me about Amazon was how often my "new" item was so obviously already opened and returned, often with parts missing. I cancelled and haven't looked back.

This is why I started using wireless charging whenever possible. USB will eventually fail from use.

I shall include this similarly to Stanislav Petrov Day.

I can hear this sentence. I always loved the cadence Grammer gave to the reading.

I knew my time was up when most of my coworkers hadn't seen Shawshank Redemption. Watching that was just the cost of being bored in the late 90s.

Yeah, but the longer you have to wait to find someone who gets it the sweeter that moment is. I'll go a good decade not working with anyone who knows a damn thing about Starship Troopers, but when I do... That's a good, knee-slapping lunch we'll have before one of us quits to never be seen again.

To back you up, the first Doom Patrol trailers did little justice to how weird that show is.

And in valiant battle against the edginess they just became more edge. Criticism doesn't get much lower than basing the review on the "tremendous over hype" of others. That just makes the critic a tool.

I don't read much fiction, but I quite enjoyed the book Edge of Tomorrow was based on: All You Need Is Kill. The plots only overlap at a very high level, if that, so no worries on having it spoiled for you. It's fun reading the protagonist's thought process and I think the book does a far better job at making the aliens scary, the war desperate.

Wow. I had completely forgotten that I used to love Firefox mobile as I had customized everything with those extensions, till they disabled them and I switched.

This is it. Most games beyond small scope/indie projects start in Unreal.

100F in Houston is a completely different beast than 100F in San Diego. Shade will actually help you San Diego. Nothing will help you in Houston.

Same here. I feel Reddit changed for the worse so slowly that I had completely forgotten what the glory days were like until I came to Lemmy. I forgot that there was actual discussion in the comments rather than the same ten lazy comments ad naseum.

I'm kinda surprised Lemmy is losing users since it feels like there is more engagement since I joined earlier this year.
