Every country has a different way of securing cards, and north america sucks at it.

Depending on the payment processor, here in Canada you need my card number, as well as one or two of the following: PIN, Postal Code, CVV/CVC, a voice changer and my mother’s maiden name, etc to do a transaction without my physical card.

With my physical card you don’t even need that for $2-300 purchases (depending on retailer), or more if the retailer hasn’t blocked swiping/the thief has access to a swiping card reader.

There are several apps for reprogramming that button to be useful, both on and off the play store

Have you seen the pokemon games?

They haven’t been optimised in over a decade at this point.

Just a heads up for screenshotting webtoons; you can do it if you load it up in your browser instead.

That being said, for ongoing series, I use the Mihon/tachiyomi webtoons extension, and if I can’t read a series because its locked the mangasee extension rehosts everything the moment it is free (and usually the last few chapters are free for at least a little bit before their shit paywall goes up).

My biggest issue with webtoons is that basically no translation group will touch a series hosted there, and that webtoons doesn’t hire skilled translators/typesetters, so it always feels like I am reading a fan translation.

Boiling your toys is both good for sanitary reasons, and fun in its own right.

I do not understand ever storing anything in the oven, its a cooking tool not a storage tool.

I will agree if you have a gas stove that checking the pilot light is a good idea, but those are becoming less common as we are discovering just how bad they are for your health - that, and induction is amazing for anything that doesn’t require an open flame (and that’s what bbqs are for!).

My car was too cheap to have an electric liftgate, though I don’t know if I can open it with a dead battery - never tried, and never had a battery so dead it needed replacing that urgently. Very possible it doesn’t open with a dead battery though, at least if the vehicle is locked when the battery dies.

An old escape maybe? Mine is a '21 and definitely not like that.

I wasn’t trying to disprove the point, I was just curious what ford vehicles the battery is up front and impossible to remove.

And honestly, for how often a battery needs to be removed, under the spare tire in the back is not bad at all, and there are still jump points under the hood and easily accessible. Clearly labeled too.

Really? My battery is under my spare in the trunk.

My lithium batteries on the other hand I think you have to remove the back seats to access, but I honestly hope I can afford to trade it in before I need it.

If your sweat is growing things in 12 hours, you need a doctor or an exorcist.

Remember, many indigenous people across the world used steam to bath, as the steam and new sweat rinsed off the old sweat quite effectively.

Fuck off troll.

And sweat rinses off quite easily.

Uhm, no? That’s quite a leap you made there.

For a normal human with no health problems affecting their oil production/smell, if you aren’t using shampoo/conditioner to constantly strip the oils from your hair, you very quickly stop overproducing oil.

Bedsheets and pillows should still be washed regularly, since they definitely get covered in excess skin oils/grime/etc.

But as long as you are caring for your hair in other ways like brushing daily and keeping it away from food/grease/mud/etc, using soap isn’t necessary unless you actually soil it - rinsing is enough to get rid of sweat buildup.

Obviously, if you are working something like a trade job, its not possible to avoid debris, grime and other things and you need to wash your hair more, but an office job? Retail? Just brush and rinse regularly, and your hair will smell and look just fine.

If you are brushing them often, feeding them good food, and not letting your dog roll in everything, they smell a lot better.

That being said, animals in general do have stronger smelling oils than humans - often for some evolutionarily advantageous reasons.

By occasionally, they mean once a month at most.

Hair only stinks if you get crap in it.

When a sphynx or a Rex get shiny, its time for a bath.

Expensive pool tables are often a solid sheet of slate, since its quite smooth and flat.

Learned that when I was recruited to help put the top in place on one.

Ah, didn’t know it worked differently for spdif, never had anything nice enough to use it.
