Loops…kind of sucks. I get the point of it, but I tried using it like 15 minutes a day for a couple weeks to get used to it, but the features are lacking and the content is…well it’s filled with people who would abandon tiktok and other apps, so, it’s kind of boring.

Not in a ‘there’s no brainrot’ way, in a ‘this is the third video in a row of just random AI slop and then it’s just some dude filming a tree for 20 seconds’.

Yeah I saw a great one about how there’s a new book in a series my partner and I read that we thought was done for…saw the date, had a quick laugh about how silly we were to believe it so fast.

Do you guys also watch Trek-likes when you feel you’ve watched the other true Treks too recently, like toss in some Orville when you want classic Trek but just finished Kirk and Picard?

They were saying that, if you at least voted, you’ve lifted a finger.

I feel you though. Being a lone voice in a county that went like 93% Trump, it definitely feels like my vote doesn’t matter. Hell, our mayor at the time was caught drunk driving with his niece in the car after a fundraiser, told the cop ‘do you know who i am’ and threatened his job, and he STILL won by a lot.

Sees the article, sees the claim, sees the rebuttal, sides with brain worm man?

I gotta get off this rock.

I think the problem comes from the misinterpretation of ‘chat’ as a conversation and not as an avenue of support. Live Chat or any capitalized Chat might better said the next title to avoid confusion.

BUT, live chat is stupid and as an IT professional beholden to a Live Chat my users don’t need, just call them. If you don’t have time to call, email them. Response times are UP with chat, but resolution times are DOWN. More deflection in a chat agent than service

But in the US, the average reading comprehension stopped around 6th grade. I don’t think a good chunk of Americans under 35 have more than a VERY passing knowledge of Mussolini (and they probably confuse half of it with Stalin)

Those of us that know now remove as much of her equipment as possible before it happens. I like to think the girl now knows it’s coming too, or is deeply concerned about being asked to go into battle with her starting gear again

Do i want to sell all my worldly possessions for one more chance at a chromed out Common joker? No. Will I? Yes

Yeah why is this article framing things as if Anu wasn’t being crafty in sumerian mythology before Yahweh even showed up.

A billion dollars is never “a bit greedy”. It is always a failure of the system to regulated exorbitant wealth through effective taxation and fair market economic policy.

They don’t have press conferences, raise the bridges to stop traffic out of the city, put out (this many) ground units to question and collect evidence for every murder in New York. Not by a long shot. The location of the murder and identity of the victim are playing a big factor in this. Because coverage happened, they’re responding. If there were 270 news articles written about Non-Descript-Murdered-Citizen #6hey might give it the same attention.

There were 808 murders in New York in 2020. Did you see this response from those deaths, do you recall?

Danny Trejo describes being on his films as a kind of family reunion for a lot of Latino actors and actresses

Rumored? Nah friend, there’s enough evidence to believe the majority of the rumors. And nobody is saying Charles killed the kids or raped the villagers, they’re saying he benefits from a dynasty and wealth built on the backs of those people, and so deserves no respect or allegiance. And that’s outside of the fact that the monarchy means fuck-all to Canada at this point. In Britain, at the seat of their power? Sure, maybe. But across the pond where the culture, people, laws, food, history are different? Fuck the crown and anyone with an ordained ‘right’ to rule.

But I hear the sentiment you’re voicing in other spaces, but no one has been able to point me anywhere. Please, help me understand what it is you’re seeing that makes you feel that way.

This is a massive rant with no points related to the actual conversation at hand, sort of just 5 or 6 point thrown out without extrapolation.

I think I get the general gist of what you’re pointing to, but I just don’t see it. People said ‘if you support Trump (who actively said racist, misogynistic, and deplorable things) then you support those people/ideologies’ and that’s not even an insult, it’s a fact.

There’s no flood of media im seeing saying ‘all boys are bad and should feel bad’. I AM seeing a flood of “men aren’t being held accountable for their actions, and that’s influencing how young boys perceive the outcomes”

5th grade reading level, gotta leave the term Foibles behind if you want people to hear you, apparently

I acknowledge that capitalism is an inherently evil system designed to extract all value from an object, I do not recognize that’s what makes the world go round.

And I’m not saying to close the borders and prevent all foreign trade. But I’m staunchly against any land purchases by foreign entities. China has already shown it’s hand in how it handles international disputes about its purchased land, we’ve seen how they behave in Africa, along the Indian border, their investment and meddling in the housing markets of Australia. You want Lithuania or Poland or Uzbekistan to have some business deals, sure, with regulation have at it. But keep China’s land grabs and the US’s military bases within their borders.

This is still seemingly a case of a Chinese business developing on land they don’t own. Even if they do own it, economic expansion into other territories SHOULD worry some people when it comes to the major powers (US included) as it’s been shown they don’t play nice when they have access to your Major resources.

Germany couldn’t give up Russia for Oil, don’t make the Baltic states rely on China for electricity. Subsidize builds in your own country the best you can, but competing with government-backed foreign entities is a good way to lose a bidding war.

You can say Israel has the right to defend itself and mean it as long as you’re talking about the immediate retaliation (even then, as a nation with access to high level intelligence and technology, the responses civilian death was still unacceptable).

You CANNOT say it in relation to the months that came after. Israel isn’t ‘defending itself’ anymore, their borders aren’t in dire need, their citizens as a whole are not in danger. But, similar to Russia prior to Ukraine’s successful long range strikes into their territory, Israel will spout nonsense about protecting it’s citizens that see danger on a scale 1/10000th of that of the occupied territory of Gaza.
