No. I think it's one of those situations where the word has changed meaning for certain groups of people, like a game of telephone, because dopamine scrolling and doom scrolling are semantically close. It's kind of like how gen al

Another hilarious observation: they flippantly tell you not to put your eggs in one basket while strategizing and salivating over how to make the sole basket in which everyone must put their eggs.

I can never really tell, but I hope it's not malicious. When I was in college, a dorm neighbor told me that Obama had said/did something bad. I don't remember what, but it was incredibly dubious. I told him I didn't beli

You can't say "there is good evidence" and then not provide the evidence. If you're talking about the study about hash tag counts, that's not good evidence. https://www.cato.org/blog/lies-damned

No really. The Shorts and Reels algorithms are so one dimensional. They both interpreted me disliking smug milquetoast rants about Republicans and Democrats as not wanting politics in my feed at all. I do want the politics, but I don't

Yes, like the GP says, it's a luxury pen. They didn't buy it for purely utilitarian reasons. They might like that it has an all-metal construction or that it weighs 88g. They might prefer the ink formulation used for the cartridge

And it does work, despite what people will say. My carrier blocks outbound phone calls from caller IDs of number we don't own. The next step will be to for carriers to start refusing calls that don't pass attestation.

I think if that were really true, so many companies wouldn't go out of their way to create an image of something not being made of plastic when it is. It's resin. It's polymer. It's PU. It's felt. It's acryli

That is not correct. It uses Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Direct just like AirDrop does. I just shared a video from a Samsung phone to a Motorola phone. Both had Wi-Fi and mobile data turned off. Unless there is some conspiracy where both devices se
