bean.is and its where you pay a communist to get in an extremely online communist debate for you

[-] BigLenin@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

People would pay for that? You can get that service for free everywhere!

Pimbu and it's a gig worker app for people to solve math questions for you.

I once had an idea for a dating app where you could just put a profile up and then set yourself to a unique mode where you would essentially automatically match with anyone who swiped right but also you couldn't scroll through profiles either.

My working name for the app was "Settle"

"Settle", but it's Tinder Al-Quds

[-] john_brown@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

This but just for people in former colonies, call it Settlr

Stuple - it claims to unlock your phone with a retinal scan, but it actually steals your location data to send you ads for beanis

I have this confirmation bias where every time I hear the name of a new app or service and think "that's so stupid who would choose a name like that for a product", 100% of the time it's massively successful, and i often end up using it.

Quibi was a short-form streaming service that offered news and entertainment programs in 5- to 10-minute chunks

Damn, remember when we still had 5- to 10-minute attention spans? Really dating yourself with this reference here.

[-] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

I remember a psych professor h I had had to choose a pronounceable word with no linguistic value and she settled on "plinth". Very embarrassing.

Zumf probably means something already.

[-] MLRL_Commie@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Plinth does sound fake, though. If you were saying s nonsense sentence and threw in plinth, I'd forget it was a real word immediately.

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago
