  • " Asked for comment about the new lawsuit, a Temu spokesperson said in a prepared statement that Shein’s “audacity is unbelievable.”

    “Shein, buried under its own mountain of IP lawsuits, has the nerve to fabricate accusations against others for the very misconduct they’re repeatedly sued for,” the spokesperson said. "

    Pot calling the kettle black? Shouldnt they both just keep their heads down and keep chipping away at Amazon? It just seems a bit preemptive on Sheins part. I feel like some sort of confrontation between the two is inevitable, but I guess I thought it would have happened when they were more neck and neck with Amazon.





  • Anecdotally, my neighborhood seems to be 70% manicured “perfect” suburban lawns vs 30% natural yard. Our little neighborhood also has a LOT of thick wooded areas and tall grass. Guess which houses look and feel like they truly belong?

    Also, we have native plants and wildflowers in our yard (haven’t gone full clover yet) and the amount of bugs and cute little critters around are incredible. So much life all bustling about. The bees love it, we had 6 different bumbebees across our 2 echinacea plants at the same time! So friggen cool to see.









  • Gaming PC is in the living room for gaming and media center.

    Laptop in my office up stairs for programming and I use Steam Remote Play for games that require keybmouse. Its nice because I can just unplug it from my dock and head downstairs with it if I want to browse on the couch.

    I have a tablet too, but that’s used solely for movies, YouTube, or when I’m DMing because the footprint is smaller.




  • I don’t mean to backseat engineer, but ensuring your BRAIN INTERFACE DEVICE succsessfully connects seems pretty fucking vital and worth of a redesign. Even if its expensive. Even if the probability is low, it needs to be virtually zero.

    Its hard to take a step back and view this as regular product development that has timelines and such strictly due to the nature of the product. This is almost literally the most invasive a product can be, you better fucking nail your execution.

    The people that actually would benefit from this technology deserve better.




  • We were almost literally in the exact same scenario and era of home. We went with an 18", our first dishwasher in 8 years.

    My girlfriend and I cook a LOT, so we make way too many dishes. On a bad day I fill up the dishwasher before my sink is empty and have to hand wash a few extra plates. I usually avoid putting pots and pans in there, honestly it doesn’t fit well with much else in the bottom row if you have that utensil thing in place.

    If you only use a couple plates and a mug or two a day, its really easy to just put it in the dishwasher Instead of the sink and when full just hit CLEAN.

    Was it worth it… I guess? How much do you hate dishes. Anything more than 2 people probably go bigger.
