Thanks for sharing this

This is happening as the nation is in a massive heatwave that’s about to cause unbelievable electric bills to a large chunk of the country since we already barely produce enough energy as it is… Idiocracy grows by the day

RIP Google Play Music. Have yet to find another streaming service who’s algorithm knew me so well to discover new music

Good catch

Bluesky users really seem to not understand what the platform actually is, coming from a user myself that actually enjoys it. You already have the ability to adjust your feeds as well as create your own and use some made by others so no need to use the optional app. Most of those feeds are publicity editable too so you can change what others users see in their “For You” feed. It’s probably the most transparent around while also being pretty easy to hijack what someone sees if they think it’s just some standard social media site of 5 years ago. Added some screenshots of oen of the sites that shows the public info of what is in different People’s for you page

GOOD. Bubble grew a bigger hole letting the air out. Disney removed their $1B investment so let’s hope more do too in the near future to keep ripping that hole wider, yes.

Apparently this has been going on for a while but The Verge started sounding the alarm 3 months ago. They know most people won’t read more than a couple sentences past a headline if they even open the article at all. Confirmation bias is about to go wild

They like this until he accidentally leaks something classified like the idiots that would upload their “Day in the life of” videos typing in pincodes and passwords and the wrong person sees it or goes back to see it an old video. Some horrible long term thinking for a software security team to allow

Given the example and you mentioning should not be dating at your ages, are we sure these people actually are the “17 year old guy” and not either creeps of funnels to get people looking for people those ages? Your friends should try is possible to look more in person within school than strangers on whatever app/site they are using.

To answer your question though, some people don’t consider there being much of a connection online and there being the entire city as your potential options that ghosting isn’t looked at as an issue on their end as they were never commited enough to the conversation to begin with. There are a lot of bots as well so there may have never been a person there you’re talking to. I personally hate the apps but am actively looking to date and its a unsettlingly common experience to get ghosted after meeting someone I’m person once or twice as there testing the waters in their eyes or looking for a happy ending so I’d rather just use them sparingly.

sigh NetMax? /s

Let us leave first geez

There’s many other things to try than looking at liposuction. Please talk to a doctor, and if that doctor recommends liposuction without trying to address why your feeling addicted to food then try another doctor, at least 3 opinions before a surgery like that. You may have a legit addiction to certain chemical reactions within certain foods like some do with the doritos powder, or you could have a deficiency which may make you crave lets say extremely fatty foods when it’s really one of the micronutrients that your body is craving that’s from said food that’sin a low quantity. Every body is different. An example I get dehydrated kinda easily regardless of the amount of water I drink while also not feeling that thirsty that leads random spasms that make me realize Im dehydrated. That issue is from salt regulation so I have to add salt to my water or drink those European high mineral content waters. Dad and granddad have the same issue so it’s genetic.

This feels like it’ll go the HBO Max, wait Max, no HBO Max, dibocal route

With another AI talk to try to hype up consumers in the article, I wouldn’t be surprised this thing is pretty much like a Chromebook that has to call servers to do much things… Still sticking to older tech

In and out hands down. Wish we had them on the east coast. For this coast I’d say Shake shack if I’m truly craving a fast food type of burger. Sonic’s double quarter pounder is great for the price but there aren’t any close in my city so mainly a quick go to when traveling. Chili’s has yet to disappoint me if you’ve got an extra 10 minutes to wait or pre-order while on your way to pickup, so wouldn’t conser it fast food.

"Zoom zoom zoom! " is still stuck in my head to this day

What a way to basically double prices for users that actually use the service as it was promoted…

Check out Orion. Still in beta for Linux but still pretty good so far from my experience so far. Flawless for anyone on any ios devices or Mac since its build with webkit like Safari.

The old memories of seeing this for 5 minutes as a kid just to be able to load the espn homepage to see football scores and a few images

I got a Sony OLED that was on a steep discount near the beginning of covid since it was clear me and my roommate would be home a lot more (Ended up just being in nature more and used it sporadically). Thankfully their interface was minimal at the time so it was just a blank homescreen in offline mode but I’ve saw tvs now adays some people are buying that will have an overlay even while on any hdmi inputs, that you must connect to the tv. A friend of mine got a cheap Walmart one after a move like 2 years ago and the overlay took up a third of the screen. He just moved too so he had no internet to connect to for a couple days so couldn’t even use his PS4 on it.
