  Adobe Gifma. Coming 2025

  But seriously great this didn’t go through

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Reddit Crushed the Internet's Largest Protest⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The only thing that matters to me is that the vast majority of my interactions on Reddit are shite ones with negative assholes, while the vast majority of my interactions here are pretty chill. Reddit won’t die, but if it did… I wouldn’t miss it one bit.

  That’s good!

  Big-ass hole

  Hmm 🤔 interesting, I appreciate the qualified suggestions

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp is one step closer to adding email address verification⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hmm🤔 I use Migadu and could probably set this up – is this actually a good idea?

  Huh interesting it handles text relatively well

  Yeah I’m sceptical too, what tool and prompt was used to produce this?

  This channel produces terrific podcasts/videos, well worth checking out. The tone is bit different to other history series, and they cover some truly ancient civilizations

  Any other job, you would no longer have a job. Ridiculous

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Call for UK ban on single-use vapes as more than 5m discarded each week⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Gotcha. They certainly seem to have become pretty commonplace. Weird thing here is that even though there not meant to be sold here, disposable vapes are certainly the most readily available. If you’re using on with a tank or pods you basically have to order from overseas

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Call for UK ban on single-use vapes as more than 5m discarded each week⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Cheers for the thoughtful response. Producing large amounts of harmful waste seems to be a larger societal issue, not something specific to lithium batteries, but I can see the part about fires being of particular concern. I still find the demonization of vaping in particular to be a bit odd.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Call for UK ban on single-use vapes as more than 5m discarded each week⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Just curious, are lithium batteries worse than other disposable batteries that end up in landfill? In know many are Nickle cadmium, but aren’t just as many ALSO lithium batteries?

  (Here in Australia at least there are means of “safely” disposing of batteries).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New research visualizes the political bias of all major AI language models⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I love that being not a being an asshole somehow equates to “left wing” according to this line of thinking. Does anyone really want “conservative” AIs? Sounds like a nightmare

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s the outcome likely to be? Is this sale/merger really going to get stopped? It’s certainly anti-competitive bs

  The hell? You’re happy he got off on a technicality for a host of assaults so your conscience can be spared?! #priorities

  I prefer quality over quantity, so would be happy without all the bots frankly

  isn’t the whole point of Docker to make it portable with a consistent environment?
