Mac owners have money? more like had money

the techbros that think that with sufficiently advanced AI we could solve climate change are so stupid. like, we might not have a perfect solution, but we have ideas on how to start to make things better (less car-centric cities, less meat and animal products, more investment in public transport and solar), and it gets absolutely ignored. why would it be different when an AI gives the solution? unless they want the “eat fat-free food and you will be thin” solution to climate change, in which we change absolutely nothing of our current situation but it is magically ecological

snowballing

yeah, it is not snowballing, it is Network Effect. for the people who want to use a twitter-like social network, the value is in the many other people using it.

but, as you are doing, telling people to leave is the correct move. because for every person that the network loses, the network loses value for everyone (the network effect going in reverse)

Water is almost 90% oxygen by mass. It is over for OP

legit, if youtube ever beats ublock origin, i’ll just stop watching youtube

oh, i understand why he was disqualified. but like you, it doesn’t make any sense as to why he would lie. i guess you can trust a brain worm to fill a form accurately?

i still don’t get it. it is not like you need to reside in NY to be able to appear in the NY presidential ballot

Reddit would probably ban “paywall evasion” subreddits. They have shown that they have no problem shitting on their more loyal users with the while taking control of subreddits that were protesting

I swear that the only job that can be replaced with an LLM is CEO. The output will be equally shitty, but it would cost a lot less…

They will try to sell it to you as a way to detect any possible health issues early. But it will just be used to analyze you food patterns to shove mcdonalds ads

I think that the dot com bubble is the closest, honestly. There can be some kind of useful products (mostly dealing with how we interact with a system, not actually trying to use AI to magically solve a problem; it is shit at that), but the hype is way too large

at first i though this was talking about the Puppy Bowl that is broadcasted before the superb owl, and yes, it is something that everyone should watch

for when you want to rock a Jesus’ cosplay?

they knew it too. it is called Greenwashing

the thing is, the one and only purpose of this dialog is to increase metrics of engagement, like how many users download the app. they don’t need to convert every mobile web user to an app user immediately. as long as that dialog is driving the engagement metrics apps, it is doing its work correctly. obviously at some point there will stop increasing engagement, so the middle managers will turn and try to squeeze a bit more by removing the loopholes, but it is not an urgent problem. it even might be intentional so they can squeeze a bit more later

the one that i am surprised at how bad it is is Twitter, that is still hosted at twitter.com . even going to x.com just redirects to twitter.com . i assume that there’s some major engineering problem that is preventing them from switching, but still, it has been almost 10 months and the clown at chief really pushed for the rebranding

Overdose of MDMA can cause seratonin syndrome, which can be fatal; and long term use might be linked to depression and anxiety (again, by the way it interacts with seratonin)

It definitely should be rescheduled too, since it is not dangerous enough and definitely has potential for medical use (couple therapy was it’s original use)

Yeah, MDMA also doesn’t belong in schedule I, although it is definitely more risky than lsd and mushrooms

i wish that they would also reschedule lsd and psilocybin to schedule III, but at least some progress is better than no progress

ketamine

wasn’t ketamine schedule III already?

At this point, i partially believe they are pushing it to the point that enough sensible people will leave the state, making those states republican stongholds for the congress and electroral college
