• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A lot of media depict the United States as being invaded by fascists from the outside. Nobody thought fascism will come from within until now.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Anyone thinking “it can’t happen here,” wasn’t paying attention in history class. It has always been a part of us from the very start.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ad companies should just cut out the middle man and pay me to watch their ads⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, that’s probably cheaper than an ad campaign.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Goths exist after high school.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest Update⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What I meant is there is a separate overall setting to turn it off. I think it is an app specific setting. If you just turn them off in the settings for the show, it will only affect that session.

  Also it’s sad to hear they’ve gotten worse. They were bad enough before when they were dub dialog only.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest Update⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  CC is a separate setting from the subtitles. There is a place to turn it off but it’s so unintuitive I can never remember it. All it really is, though is dub dialog. There was no attempt at proper closed captioning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Move Fast and Break Nothing | Waymo’s robotaxis are probably safer than ChatGPT.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That probably is not so comforting when one of them is in control of half a ton of metal, plastic and glass in public.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm gonna die on this hill or die trying⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The word emoji shows up in this prompt five times! Better use as many emoji as possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This struck upon one of the greatest wishes of all corporations. A way to get work without having to pay people for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What if we were *just a lil evil*?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re is no lesser evil between Apple and Google.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google says adblockers caused YouTube views count to drop - this is what adblockers told us really happened⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re not getting revenue from you either way. That’s really more effort than I would want to go through for what amounts to a display bug.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google says adblockers caused YouTube views count to drop - this is what adblockers told us really happened⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to mention most didn’t see a corresponding drop in revenue from views.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What even is money at this point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Amazon is running lean until they can put all the brick and mortars out of business. Then they’ll raise their prices an order of magnitude.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hotdog, egg, and pickle bunt aspic⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Believe it or not, that is an above average aspic. They get way worse than that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PUT THE TRAINS IN THE BAG⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And once again Phoenix to Las Vegas is ignored.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This one is ongoing. It gets modified a bit whenever some industry or another pays enough, but it’s still misleading kids and educators to this day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So it was basically laziness on the part of the international astronomical community.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ideally you’d wash your sink too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The rebuilding thing was a plan specific to WWII. They wanted to avoid the issues that the end of WWI brought to keep another war from happening a couple decades down the line.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure the largest consideration was keeping the Soviets from claiming land in Asia the same way they did in Europe.

  Also, we had this shiny new toy and a war was on; we weren’t going to not use it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The lemmings thing never made sense to me until I found out what the film crew did to them. There’s just no way a species that susceptible to mass suicide could survive long term. They would have gone extinct long before the invention of bored documentarians.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The War of the Worlds broadcast didn’t cause mass hysteria, but it did cause some people to go outside and shoot at the nearest water tower.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you be sued for defaming virtual K-pop stars? South Korea court says yes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure about Korean laws specifically, but they’re usually has to be actual damage to win a defamation case. If accusations of summoning demons caused them to lose business, it would count.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Political discourse⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The right is sill around. They just have a ‘D’ next to their name.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung brings ads to US fridges⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They planned on having it automatically order more milk for you, but I guess Amazon wasn’t offering enough kickback for that. So we get ads instead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung brings ads to US fridges⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The ads are new. Research wouldn’t have revealed them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, unfortunately some people are using nuclear as an excuse to argue that we don’t need any renewables at all and that they should be banned entirely. They do this because they know that nuclear faces extreme regulatory and societal challenges and it would allow coal, diesel and gas to continue unabated.

  So it creates a backlash where renewable advocates feel they have to fight nuclear to survive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Solar isn’t the only renewable choice, though. It’s just the easiest to do on an individual level. Also, there are plenty of areas for which weeks of gloominess will never (on human timescales) be an issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But also, the correct answer is Devil's Due⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Her character does get a bit better in later seasons. She even starts wearing a real uniform.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But also, the correct answer is Devil's Due⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The movies alternate between incredible and hot garbage, but all of them are worth watching.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GTA V was released on this day, 12 years ago⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  All the story DLC ended up being modified for online.
