I hope bigger retailers jump on board with this too 🤞

Doesn’t mention anything about infrastructure and I’d guess that has a lot to do with it in the US. Very, very few cities are setup with any type of pedestrian traffic or public transport in mind.

I used IRC a lot back in the day and its shocking how little of that interaction I see anywhere on Discord. It’s either nobody talking or literally hundreds just spamming messages.

I use it for gaming with friends but that’s really all I’ve found useful. It helped me nab a PS5 back in the day because of a price watching group and I’ve found a few WoW communities that have group finder channels that can be good but that’s about it.

but the payoff for Garry was SO good.

You’re the first person I’ve ever seen that made it that far into The Wire and didn’t like it. Are you American? If not, I think that maybe makes more sense. For Americans, it’s just such a great representation of so many things that every city experiences. And the fact that you see the same story from so many different perspectives is just SO compelling. I think it should be watched/taught in high schools because of how many perspectives it gives on the plights of society in American cities.

Why are you reposting this 2 days later from your original here? It was also posted by someone else 2 days ago here.

I feel like I’ve just been scrolling through the same content for 3 days now.

That’s a great solution. It think we were talking more about people that don’t even use PCs. Older people like grandparents or other tech illiterate that maybe use a tablet at most.

Right… but the discussion is specifically about how Apple is pretty much the only consumer friendly TV device available right now. Hopefully a new, better one comes along but to your point, that one will eventually be shit too soooo idk whats the point its all going to burn

The creepiest thing mine has done is have the Peanuts cartoon screensavers be relevant to the weather in my area. Seeing Snoopy and Woodstock get blown around on a windy day is oddly nice haha

I don’t actually know its happening, I might just be more aware of the windy cartoons or rainy cartoons when I’m actually experiencing that weather 🤷‍♂️

I think it’s important to note that quote was from 2015.

I never thought I would care about having >1Gbps but transferring a Blu-ray disc has made me rethink that lmao

I have uBlockOriginLite working with Safari on iOS just fine. I don’t use Firefox much on mobile because Safari works fine for me in that context but I assume it would work in Firefox too.

Not directly related to the girlfriend aspect but his quote about sycophancy with AI is good to hear:

Quite the opposite, because as you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree. And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. We view it quite the opposite. I mean, the way that we have designed Siri, Siri really wants to say ‘Listen, that’s not what I’m here for, right? I’m here to help you. I can help you get things done. I can help you learn about the world.’ But if you try to engage Siri as a romantic partner, Siri’s not up for that. Siri’s 100 percent not into that.

You’re still misunderstanding it, lol

It wasn’t an exclusionary statement. Knowing something about football doesn’t mean you can’t also know something about survival, budgeting, etc. Their point was that knowing anything about football is probably better than not.

E.g. “All knowledge might be useful and should be valued as a positive thing.”

I don’t have any answers but I’ve been off reddit for ~3 years now and haven’t found alternatives for a lot of the communities that I miss.

Part of it is probably “be the change you want to see” but if you go looking, there are tons of communities that haven’t had posts in years because the one person that was posting finally gave up. The most active stuff here is mostly controversial news and stuff like that. With no discovery algorithm though, I may be missing some stuff that I would otherwise be interested in because I just haven’t looked for it.

Hope you feel better soon! Probably worth going to the doctor just to verify its not pneumonia or something, if you haven’t already. It can get bad quick (see Kyle Busch’s death this past week).

Their Stratocaster shape is public domain in the US. They won a court case in Germany for copyright of it and immediately went after any builder selling to Germany.

It was a total asshole scumbag move. No silver lining, just finance bros destroying a brand.

How does that relate to black market though? I’m very confused as well.

Depends on context really. If you’re looking for a hosted solution similar to Github, Gitlab is much more expensive. Our team was on a self-hosted version of Gitlab but needed more change control around PR reviews and merging. We moved to Github and got that for $4 per user per month where that same functionality would’ve cost ~$30 per user per month on Gitlab. That’s a crazy price difference and was easily worth the migration to Github for our use case.
