In my mind it’s more like they give you what they want you to accept in these results and the AI summaries. It really seems like the days where any of these giant corps gave you what you actually wanted are long past.

This is a great point. If a small percentage of the population is openly and aggressively negative towards another part of the population, it makes sense that they would both artificially appear as if they are a larger part of the populati

This along with the writing style in the description is totally forced anthropomorphizing. It’s creepy.

Maybe some people just assume there is a “best” or “optimal” way to do everything and AI will tell us what that is. Some things are just preference and I don’t mind the tiny amount of energy that goes into doing small things the way I like

Requiring people who get government money for food to not use it on prepared food is a good thing I would think. Technicalities like the one you presented do seem ridiculous on their own however.

I know several people working as customer engineers in a fab based in America. They are very much not PhD‘s or even mechanical engineers. They are each assigned one tool to maintain as you said. They each make around 100K and 3 12hr days pe

To me it feels like society is finally moving on from this insane over emphasis on finding things to be offended by and identity culture bs. I’m really hoping it peaked in the lockdown when people really had nothing better to do.

I live in America and while I have compassion for some individual cops, I hate them as a whole with a burning passion. I know lots of people that feel this way. It’s almost like social media comments sections are not an accurate represen

Not debating the practicality here, but even if you need your truck to do something only once in the entirety of your ownership, it needs to be capable of this all the time. Towing, crawling, etc.

Ray-ban along with almost every other glasses and sunglasses brand, and also almost all retailers of glasses are all owned by a megacorp called Luxxotica. The prices are all completely arbitrary and fixed. Beyond this basically all prices

This basic concept can be applied in many places. Do you ever wonder why social movements seem to never work out well and demands are never met? That’s because when they do work out, and demands are met, those people quickly become the “

Just using at a barely advanced level for 20 years or so as I do, the other comment was correct in that it is the changes that have seemingly been made to make it more familiar to iOS users and “idiot proof”. Mainly slowly hiding buttons an

While a lot of this can definitely sound like an old man yelling at the sky, tv compared to scrolling tiktok, is like caffeine compared to crack cocaine.

I also found the close up video to be self explanatory but I understand the confusion. People are thinking of it as multiple tiny treadmills that change direction rather than the spinning disc it actually is.

Coincidences exist. Coincidences are real. Saying that there are no coincidences stops inquiry. Challenging the statement forces us to make sense of its ambiguity and explore our potential involvement. You can choose the random perspective

I have a mechanical background in automotive specifically so I don’t expect too much technical detail in an article like this, but saying the “wheel fell off” and “suspension collapsed” is like saying the computer “blew up”. The writer cou
