Just click on it? Really? For the life of me I couldn't figure that out, probably because single clicking does basically nothing in normal videos.

I don't want to use other apps, I want to read comments and descriptions. If I can't get context there's no reason for me to be there, and I may as well never open a short to begin with.

Everything about shorts are designed to shove more noise down your eyes, but I want to learn something. Even the community posts are better for that.

I am viewing it on a phone. Instead of having a usable UI and a viewable video, it takes every square mm of screen and shoves everything into a mess that can't be paused or minimised. It's hostile to any action that isn't consuming more.

Exactly this! Videos under 6 seconds are often pretty cool, but they player covers the video with buttons, shortcuts are all different, everything is so inaccessible, you get shouted at to consume the next video, and it either takes all the screen space or a tiny sliver.

It's like talking to a caffeine soaked squirrel.

Yeah, the powers are cool, but completely obsolete 60% of the game. Why would I get a Car and trick it out if walking is always faster? Why get a tank if I can punch things to death easier?

If the hacked powers extended to more things and weren't quite so ridiculously powerful, there would be a lot more to enjoy.

Nah, 42,000$ is more natural and consistent with other units.

Some XX people live their entire lives as men without ever knowing otherwise, and the same happens with XY individuals living as women. Even having children won't reveal the apparent discrepancy, unless they need certain tests done.

Has a LVT ever been implemented?

Could be sugar. The US loves to turn corn into various forms of sugar.

Uptime counter failover, indistinguishable from a clock.

I'm partial to Australia's name for their own rotten Scott: Scummo.

If facebook is what makes people learn how to circumvent technological restrictions, it will be the first good thing they've done in many years.

You can argue that most donuts being frozen isn't too bad (particularly the cake donuts), but crullers are entirely different products from frozen.
