“Maybe we’ll start reading again” obviously implies that something is lacking presently and that with luck, we’ll go back to the way things were

Not sure if you’re saying I’m outraged but I promise you I’m not, just thought it was lame to try and imply audiobook enjoyers were somehow less than because of how they prefer to enjoy stories

There is literally zero shame in someone consuming audiobooks, and it’s deeply weird to act like something is lost to you if others enjoy them. And this is coming from someone who virtually never listens to audiobooks.

Reporting for using the N slur

The gulf between Nintendo’s legal/corporate office and the game designers/developers is staggering to me

For real. Not every stupid subreddit needs a Lemmy clone. Keep that eighth grade humor trash back where it belongs.

Wtf?

Because both companies remembered their common ground

Skyblivion is developed from a place of love, the official remaster is developed from a place of “money please”

I actually find a 4x10 shift to be a great option but that’s the key, it’s an option where I work. Not mandatory and not for everyone. I really enjoyed the three day weekend. I think 4x10 as an option is a great choice if companies insist on 40 hour work weeks but moving to 4x8 (32 hour) weeks is a much better standard without a doubt.

Trying to read the text with the insane collage of actively playing videos made me feel motion sickness

I still don’t know what Google+ was trying to be

And this guy worked on the Google+ team for sixteen years

Indeed, Balaji’s death — of a self-inflicted gunshot, per the San Francisco County Medical Examiner’s report — had become a focal point in debates over AI ethics, corporate accountability, and the dangers faced by whistleblowers in Silicon Valley. Whether these things become disentangled now remains to be seen.

Bet they don’t

Genuinely asking, what difference would it make if I walk into the QFC, get immediately Face ID’d, grab a box of pop tarts that are arbitrarily priced higher because some AI told Kroger that my social status indicated I’d pay top dollar for frosted blueberry, if I pay cash or card at the checkout counter?

It’s got a bush what the hell?

I know it’s America-centric of me but “monkey fucks up entire country” hits different over here

“I have had plenty of people message me and even make issues on my GitHub asking for some insane crazy WikiTok algorithm,” Gemal told Ars. “And I had to put my foot down and say something along the lines that we’re already ruled by ruthless, opaque algorithms in our everyday life; why can’t we just have one little corner in the world without them?”

The developer seems staunchly anti-algorithm but I feel like some sort of filter system would work well. I know nothing about development but the same level of randomosity (it’s a word don’t look it up) but for specific topics would be amazing.

What is the practical application of tracking stuff, like are you guys literally just telling each other where stuff is or what does an average tracking session look like?

Edit: I’m very interested in the idea of amateur radio operating, but I guess I’m trying to picture what it would be like practically and wondering if that’s something I’d be into, you know?

Lack of empathy is a sign of narcissism sure, but so is a pathological need for praise and to feel superior to others.

Done!
