Hey companies: we customers don't like calling you, we reluctantly do — infrequently — when all else fails. So for your automated phone system to tell us “Listen carefully, our options have changed” means nothing — we haven't called you (hopefully) in years and won't again (hopefully) for years!

So frustrated! My 16yo has been saving, and bought a new gaming PC. Got it today, set it up, and trying to log into Epic Games Fortnite just tries to send a 2FA to our email (correct email) which never arrives (checked spam/junk). Read ALL the Epic help articles. Google full of similar stories. 😭😭

Also 15 out of 15. Not bad for a hardcore atheist! 😂
15 out of 15 here.
On this religion knowledge quiz, the average American chose the correct answer for 7 of the 15 questions.
Can you beat the average American? Let us know.

Enjoyed #TheFacelessLady on a Meta Quest 3. If you have one, check it out. Watching a TV show in immersive 3D mode is quite something, even if just occasionally.

Wow, record breaking #BlackFriday and #CyberMonday sales, you say? And yet a month ago folks couldn’t afford eggs. 🤔🤔

I'll be interested in others' thoughts, but I think the design trend of oversized center screens in new cars is getting into silly territory. I'm hoping we return to more sensible sized screens. No one needs that much screen space — in fact, it becomes a visual safety issue (distraction). #ev #cars

learning that Oprah's real name is Orpah is one of those wedge factoids that will permanently destroy your ability to speak normally about her ever again. it alters your brain chemistry. "Do you mean Orpah?" you'll say, every time. if you're reading this it's already too late
