- Comment on TikTok To Be Sold To Trump’s Right Wing Billionaire Buddies And Converted Into A Propaganda Mill 2 weeks ago:
They had to get a different algo and server infra under Trump I and Biden because they were threatening it back then on grounds that they would spy on american’s data. They proceeded to start deranking anything political during the 2020 protests and hiring former spooks to moderate content, but that was never going to be enough.
- Comment on Friends are a bloatware. 3 weeks ago:
I have different friend groups on WhatsApp, Wechat, Signal, Telegram, Zalo, LINE, and Discord. Is it possible to use this “matrix” to replace 2 or more apps?
- Comment on Fuck you in particular 3 weeks ago:
How hard is it to paint an irregularly shaped object in vanteblack, suspend it in a weighted 5ft plexiglass sphere sitting on some ball bearings, and let viewer or motors rotate it so the changing silhouette fucks with perspective, like a 3d shadow puppet?

You can’t take anything with you, because the British will rob your tomb.
- Comment on Huawei unveils new trifold smartphone before Apple’s iPhone 17 reveal 4 weeks ago:
How much of that is because Samsung actually offers 200USD phones, a market segment Apple ignores?

There was an expansion? That game was so mid I regret pirating it, and most people seem to feel similarly. Is the game actually popular?

You messed up. I got my 40 Ruble check from Putin for registering a lemmy.ml account, President Xi gives me 60 cents per post, and George Soros doubles that.

Hermit crabs?
- Comment on The duality of man 4 weeks ago:
Do you not remember all the libs on lemmy celebrating Bidens accomplishments like securing the border and deporting more people than Trump pt I
- Comment on It's efficient. 4 weeks ago:
Like a half teaspoon of fresh baking soda in warm water works on contact.
- Comment on Just a little bit more 4 weeks ago:
I mean thats how you pass any car, you never sit back in the blind spot, you pass swiftly, then get back into the right-hand lane.
- Comment on Just a little bit more 4 weeks ago:
That’s just what you’re supposed to do, what if the semi has to swerve or there’s heavy wind
- Comment on Everyone wants a turn 4 weeks ago:
They already do that for civet coffee.
- Comment on What strategy would you use to estimate the number of hazelnuts 5 weeks ago:
Too lazy, measure mass of 4 hazelnuts to get an average, then weigh them all.
- Comment on Make it make sense 5 weeks ago:
Yes? You arrange the fastest cars at the front and the slowest cars at the back, and the whole blob of traffic spreads out.
- Comment on Make it make sense 5 weeks ago:
If people pass quickly, then get out of the left lane, nobody needs to brake and start a compression wave
- Comment on Who is the enemy? 5 weeks ago:
EMS hate motorcycles and decorative throw rugs.
- Comment on He really said this, look it up! 5 weeks ago:
What work was that?
- Comment on Make it make sense 5 weeks ago:
Secret is to play the game next to a semi. Some semis kinda do it too by engine braking as they see the wave approaching
- Comment on He really said this, look it up! 5 weeks ago:
Kind of, but his later works indicate he had developed a slightly less linear understanding.
- Comment on Bring out the trumpets and pour out the beer 5 weeks ago:
Fascism doesn’t have to model reality, just knit together a story that confirms underlying biases of the “middle class” without questioning the system that privileged them, but is failing.
Leftists have the advantage in that we can describe exactly why your material conditions are eroding while we are more productive than ever, but for someone who was privileged under capitalism, its easier to believe the system that privileged them is good and just, its just foreigners and minorities who are exploiting them.
- Comment on bmw 5 weeks ago:
That doesnt really match my experience, every region has a distinct reason they don’t use turn signals; American drivers are too self-centered to signal, Indian drivers don’t use the turn signals because it broke 12 years and 800,000km ago, Vietnamese drivers/riders are too busy on their phones or stretching their legs to use a turn signal (vinfast drivers are just afraid it will drain the battery), South Korean drivers will have already made the turn or merge by the time the light reaches other drivers so they don’t bother.
- Comment on bmw 5 weeks ago:
Every driver in China is like that. The popular consensus seems to be if other drivers know what you plan to do, they will use it against you.

- Comment on Just one more 3 months ago:
The traffic in Beijing and even more so Seoul really disappointed me. Why do so many people drive when theres subways and buses every 2 minutes at rush hour? I mean I get Beijing a little, all the roads are so wide and the subway stations are so massive, but seoul even has dedicated bus lanes that beat cars at rush hour, and people still drive.
