I always nodded and said yes.

inadvertently kickstarts Elizabeth Holmes promotion to CEO a job or two later :p j/k

btw curious what the proper verification work is. Thought calls were standard. Maybe pulling tax records if possible?

Ah I see your edit now, thanks (and see how it was assumed implied :) )

iOS lets you create “secret chats”

How? Not natively unless I’m mistaken

In 2019, The North Face faced consumer backlash and apologized after its marketing agency surreptitiously added photos featuring its apparel to Wikipedia articles on popular outdoor destinations.

Edit: they also sent a cease & desist to The South Butt a decade before that

Seen the third party message on the Wirecutter comments section?

“If you comment on these socks we’re recommending YOUR DATA WILL BE SOLD!!!”

Incredible and actually good guy vendor (Disqus) in a way for not hiding it unless it was their lawyers’ doing :)

I can tell you the license plate numbers of all six cars outside. I can tell you that our waitress is left-handed and the guy sitting up at the counter weighs two hundred and fifteen pounds and knows how to handle himself. I know the best place to look for a gun is the cab of the gray truck outside, and at this altitude, I can run flat out for a half mile before my hands start shaking. Now why would I know that? How can I know that and not know who I am?

“Hi I wasn’t paid six dollars on Fiverr to post here” (does increase costs obviously but marginally for high-margin/volume products)

“GCN” video from a couple months ago showing their bait bike being stolen^. They cut through a UL lock in 36 seconds but unfortunately didn’t test one of the few-hundred-dollar angle-grinder-resistant locks.

Ahahaha that’s great

Didn’t watch but hope to!

Fantastic.

Now I wanna become the hand dishwashing expert!

• Scrub every inch and cranny real good with soapy water

• Even try to leave the soap on for 30 seconds if I can wash other stuff in the meantime

• Rinse very thoroughly so nary a hint of a sud remains

Prioritize dishwasher for everything that won’t be damaged

It looks hand

Most of the edits to try and say turbo is the slow mode were done by the one person, they seem to think they are right when all the evidence points to the contrary. I’m glad they seem to have given up for now.

Heh maybe you inspired them :p
