Both answers to @PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca seem to imply there's a hidden insult in their comment, but I can't find it. I'm the dumb cookie and I don't like that

I don't get it...

I forgot: I called two more times recently because my phone screen would not turn on, and apparently there's a setting in LineageOS to call the emergencies if you fiddle with the buttons, so as to make the situation even worse, and then there's a voice telling you you're about to talk to someone and you can't hang up! (Edit: I suppose they would call back in any case).
Happened twice before I found the setting. So yeah, I wasted their time, again.

15 years ago, young student, I'm walking home around midnight. In the middle of a bridge I see a human shape jumping in the water. I'm not 100% sure. I ask a group of people further up on the bridge if they saw anything, they didn't, but said I still should call 112.

One or two police cars came, and then one (or 2?) fire truck. Lots of people. Some went with full diving equipment in the water.

They couldn't find anyone, said it was surprising as the water was very low. The fireman captain gave me the stinkeye.

Police had left their lightbar on and the car wouldn't start (I think that was the reason) so I helped to push.

I had to come to the police station and tell what I saw many, many times.
Only years later did I realize I was being interrogated, to find out if my story had holes. I was quite naive (dumb works too).

I wasn't drunk, depressed, or had any kind of weird fantasies that would make me want to invent a story. It's the only time I called the cops in my life.

All cops were friendly, even though they must've thought I was lying or had too much imagination.

Did someone jump? Now I think not. But at the time I really thought there was a possibility, and I wouldn't take any chances. I just didn't realize how many people and resources would be involved.

How fast was that fucker driving again? in a residential area, with "watch out for the kids" signs if I remember correctly.

Edit: 96 in a 35 mph zone

I was living with roommates clueless about house maintenance stuff.
So one day I explain we should purge the radiators. Did I forget to say "purge the air"? I dont know. But the bucket I told em to use to catch water spilling one roommate thought was supposed to be used to empty the radiators. I was on the computer and saw him from the corner of my eye go empty his bucket a few times before I caught on.

THE TRUE PEOPLE

I see how my phrasing lead to the misunderstanding: I didn't mean Dualshock don't exist. They are the older versions, Dualsense are the newer ones

Oh interesting, thanks. I meant a Dualsense indeed, not Dualshock

I bought a ~~Dualshock~~ Dualsense because of the trackpad, didn't realize it didn't have replaceable batteries.
Battery life is bad and it really annoys me.
I think I'll try again to fix the stick drift on my Xbox controller...

As a reward Tako received a crab, and gets to stay in its box forever! <3

I know she pasteurizes some foods and sterilizes others, don't know which for jams
