I hear this all the time but I struggle to see how it is true. How many people regularly trawl through their feed looking for creators who haven’t posted in X days and unfollowing them? It would be a minuscule number. I’m pretty darn selective with my follows and I think I’d do this once a year, tops.

I think creators are conflating the everyday ups and downs of follower counts on their platform(s) as being something more. And I think the platforms themselves are encouraging this mentality because they need fresh content.

I’m not agreeing with cranky science person, just saying they specifically mentioned sterility in offspring as a thing in “cross species” mating.

Mules are infertile. Cranky science person you are responding to does specify that in one of their rants.

Your solution to someone complaining that the boss is earning too much is to suggest they pay the other workers less (or not at all)?

I grew up watching The Cosby Show. Big part of my childhood etc. I’ll leave you to join the dots.

No one is going to mention that OP has a bowl specifically for ravioli?

“They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the cows.”

My take away: America has had school shootings for long enough to have statistical analysis applied.

Haha! Yeah! Wouldn’t want some loser military that hasn’t won a war in the last 80 years. Haha!

By “know what you’re doing” I mean “understand the consequences”. Anyone can follow a guide that tells them how to open a port on their router. Understanding that in doing so they’re potentially allowing every malicious actor into their home network is not so straightforward.

This should not be downvoted. You should not expose anything straight to the internet unless you know what you’re doing. Use a simple service like Tailscale to create a locally accessible VPN.

Meanwhile Costco in Australia is pushing to have penalty rates abolished. They might be good by American standards but they can get fucked trying to erode Australian workers rights.

I was certain Utopia had actually done an episode on renaming the department but could’t find it.

Big “The Bureau” energy.

I have a Surface Laptop 6 and a Razer eGPU enclosure with a Radeon 6600 XT in it and it works fine. The manufacturer will list what sorts of GPUs are compatible, assuming you get a brand name one and not some cheap no-name Amazon job.

Honestly if you have the money, go for a PC. The mobile CPU in laptops/tablets will your biggest bottleneck. Get a decent CPU, motherboard and PSU and the best GPU you can afford and it’ll probably out perform the Surface.

Edgelords with inflated opinions of their intelligence, and morons.

Those two are not mutually exclusive.

But electing criminals to the highest office in the country is a-OK.

This is fantastic, thank you for sharing. I’ve struggled with some media not having suitable subtitles available for download.

Nah.

Yep me too. Wife was adamant her phone was spying on her so we decided to test it by talking about Lexus cars (having chosen cars because at the time she was getting no car ads anywhere, had no interest in cars, and she had never heard of the brand before so certainly hadn’t searched for it). A few hours later, her Facebook feed was full of Lexus ads. 100%.
