Master Thread of Pet Peeves

what are we even talking about? What’s a “frum video”? Like a movie like fiddler on the roof or agent emes? There’s an industry of Jewish actors?

Check out Mostly Music and Niggun. Most are for women only, but some are also for men.

wow I was wondering if this came out from one singular customer I’m glad not though!

I've known him for years, and he's gotten frustrated with me more than once when I asked him for advice, and came back later and hadn't pulled the trigger.
When people ask him, he realy invests time to come back with a good answer. He knows how and what to look for, and has preset shortcuts to various sites... but it still takes him real time. And he's not a bored bachur, he has a large family, and serious full sedorim, and a bein hasdorim job, and  is very involved in chesed in his kehila...

And most time consuming of all, he's a DDFer

People who make phone calls using the WhatsApp app!

Don’t be so lazy and switch to the caller app, search my freaking number & call me, Thanks

There’s a reason I have cellular service & not only data, because a phone call over the internet sucks, so please please make a damn phone call next time you wanna talk to me.

Interesting, that’s not the case by me.

It’s horribly unclear & choppy

If you need these somewhat often why don't you order a bunch when they're on sale?

Reviewers complaining without context.

ComputerActive reviewed the Inspiron Plus 14 with Meteor Lake (CU7 155H), and then later reviewed a version with the Snapdragon X Plus (not even the Elite). They simply advised not buying it, saying the Meteor Lake version was much more powerful in their benchmarks and was worth the extra $100. No mention was made of the 50% more battery life in the Snapdragon model, which, after all, was the selling point.
I couldn't let that stand...


So, of course, they add that there's another computer (which only costs double) with more battery life, and that there are other Snapdragon models that get even more battery life. But, officer...

[yfr bachur]

And your editors eye should have picked up that they refer to less battery life as "slower"

This guy's peeve: that MSRP doesn't mean anything in the mid-range or higher graphics space.

Dude: which world do you live in, where MSRP means something? There's a reason Woot calls it the "pointless price."
