Had to read the article to find out if the headline was describing a good trend or a bad trend. I'm so old 👴
-
So good trend or bad trend?
I can't read the article, does anyone have an archive link?
-
Good trend.
Why it matters: The consequences are steeper for those supporting former President Trump.
By the numbers: 43% of people between the ages of 18 and 34 say they’d have a more negative view of a date if told they voted for Trump, according to a new Generation Lab poll.
17% say they’d have a more positive view, and 40% say the information would make no difference.
-
The 17% is worrying, but that 40% is worse.
-
The 17% is worrying
Agreed
but that 40% is worse
I'm assuming those 40% just want to get laid and that's all they care about. Lol, I'm not young, but I remember being young.
-
Keep in mind Trumpers hate birth control and that one night stand might turn to an 18 year marathon with a crazy parent.
-
Do we know how many of the 40% were dudes?

What happens when you attempt to read the article? It's an Axios article. Free with no paywall.

Not OP, but for me a window popped up and asked for my email, without any button or other option to opt out/make it go away. I got around it by using “Reader” Mode.
-
Hmm. On my phone, the link just opens the article in a browser.

It has an annoying nagwall asking you to sign up with an email, but that doesn't show up if javascript is disabled or if using reader mode on your browser. It's also easy enough to get rid of by using developer tools in your browser if you're a bit tech minded.

Right? How am I supposed to know what "left" implies in some random app's context?
-
Left and right are a de facto standard in dating apps. It's a terrible UI but they all do it now.
-
Smartphones didn't even exist last time I was dating.
-
The thing that trips me up, as a dinosaur, is whether "swipe left" refers to the direction your hand moves or the direction that the viewport is traveling. If I scroll by moving my finger to the left, now I'm looking at stuff that was previously on my right.
-
In tinder when you swipe, the picture itself moves, not the whole screen.

I have this issue with my stove top, which burner goes to with nob/diagram. Does the picture line flat or flip over. I only every end up using the one with both high and low cause it's easy to tell which it is.
-
Does the picture line flat or flip over
I'm gonna need a drawing or video to describe this in 3d terms because it makes little sense
The burners should be in a representation that when looking at them dead-on you're looking at them as you would the burners top-down
So if you squat down and make the burner icon eye-level to you, then stand up and look down at the burners at a 90 degree angle down, that's how they line up
A | B
C | D
If that's your image then A is the back-left burner on your stovetop, and D would be the one closest to you on the right
-
I am a weirdo and always get things backwards that the rest of the population has no trouble with.
Righty-tighty, lefty-loosey made no sense when I was a kid because I focused on the bottom of the thing I was spinning instead of the top.
Same with the stove. Wtf is the "front" burner? I mapped the four burners to the four seats of a car in my head, and I thought the front burner would be the ones farther away from me. 🫨

That's absolutely right, but you forgot to account for the fact that the stove doesn't face the same way you do, you're facing it and it is facing you, like a head on car collision

And why are they stealing it? I don't even know where to start planning a caper involving left theft. Guess I could start from the right...

Yeah, I met my (now) wife over 20 years ago. I blissfully missed app dating and I always make sure she wears her seatbelt and what-not so that never changes.
-

Got a good brand recommendation for what-nots? My wife's been asking for one.
-
I usually check Etsy, but you can often find good ones thrifting too.

"wears her seatbelt"?
