Same here, I still don’t create new posts much but I’m definitely commenting more often, which I hardly ever did on Reddit. It feels like conversations are more real on here, and less gets lost in the noise of thousands of comments per thread
I’m so far below $1k that it isn’t a worry, it’s only small dollar items. That and they aren’t catching me every time, even with all the cameras. Even if they did know every single time I “missed” an item at self check out, I’d be surprised if I’d taken more than $100 of food by now. That and they’d have a hard time proving it was intentional every time and not a simple mistake.
It’s become like a hobby of mine to not pay for a single item every time I check out at Walmart or Kroger. Fuckers have their margins higher than ever and their starting pay is $12-14/hr. If they want to reduce theft then they can hire people to actually work some of the 20 empty check out lanes they have.
I havnt worked retail in years, but I have a recurring fantasy of printing off memes like this one and planting them around the local Walmart, Kroger, Home Depot etc.. It wouldn’t amount to much, which is partly why I haven’t, but I’d like to think it might open the eyes of one or two people.
This seems like an inevitable QoL improvement, I’ve seen so many comments pining for it. A bunch of apps are getting ready to hit the App Store, can’t wait to try them and see them evolve
It’s had a noticeable drop in quality since the protests. Still has loads more content than Lemmy, but Quantity ≠ Quality. I still check it for news/worldsnews/politics, but there’s really nothing important even there that isn’t on Lemmy as well.
Hopefully this means I can fix my elite controller’s fucky LB button. Have to press it ridiculously hard for it to register
