| Topic | Wild to me that AirTags work. |
| IdiotMachine 10/14/22 9:58:53 PM #1 | AirTags uses everyones iPhones to track where it is. For example, if theres an AirTag near you, your iPhone notes it in the background, sends the AirTags location (i.e., your location) to Apples servers using your own data, and Apple sends the AirTag location to the AirTag owners. Its wild to me that thats just how many iPhones there are to make this system work reliably, compared to shitty android phones. --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png |

I help out occasionally (when we deep clean the house), and she helps out occasionally (when we pull weeds). --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png |

That seems appropriate.In my view, the thing I do for the baby is the bare minimum (being with her, and feeding/changing her on occasion), and I'm getting praise for it. My wife does so much more (spends more time with the baby and pumps milk (this is a HUGE effort that I never appreciated until I saw it)), and nobody gives a shit. Everything else is just standard shit you gotta deal with anyway (housework). --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png |

| IdiotMachine 10/13/22 7:33:12 PM #28 | As a new father, I noticed this btw. Like seriously just BEING with a baby = you must be a good dad!. Its crazy how low the bar is. Meanwhile, I see my wife doing all sorts of shit and nobody praises her. Like she wakes up every 3 hours to pump, and its just accepted she has to do it; nobody asks how shes recovering from the most traumatic moment in her life (giving birth), everyone asks about the cute baby; etc. Punished_Blinx posted...

As a good father, all you have to do is just be with the baby.. change diapers occasionally, feed occasionally, and just be around and BAM!!! Youre a good father.

I mean $2 tip is perfectly reasonable in Germany, so they didnt do anything wrong in their eyes. They probably thought they were being scammed if the waitress explained to them youre supposed to tip 25% tbh, if they didnt know about USAs tipping culture. --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png |

Back up, he totaled the car...trying to park?So it was perpendicular parking: |c|c|c|o|c| x-> Where "c" = car parked and "o" = empty spot, and "x" = his car with -> the direction of travel. He tried to make a left into the "o" spot, but he mis-judged the angle, and was on a path to hit the car on the right. Instead of braking, he accelerated and hit the car pretty hard. The repair estimates were like $5k for the Toyota, so insurance just considered it totaled and sent a check for the car's value at ~$3k. --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png |

On a serious note getting bad drivers a really small car is basically like rolling the dice on when a truck is going to tbone and massacre them after they run a stop signSo stop signs and red lights, they still got it. The problem is, my father-in-law (who's the primary driver) now sucks at judging "space" in general. So he has problems parking into spots. This is how he wrecked the Camry- he misjuged the turn radius, and smashed right into another car. Insurance company considered the Camry wrecked, and just gave him a check for like $3k. --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png |
