I don't understand how other people can tolerate using Twitter. I just want to view people's comments in a compact form - one line per tweet, even if RSS or equivalent is not supported. How do people have time in their day to scro

Lots of people just don't want to have children that much. It doesn't matter what incentives they are given. They'd rather hang out with their friends until old age. Lots of people don't consider their opposite-sex equal

I'm not saying it's not useful. I'm saying that once it learns the content of the data sources that are fed to it, that's it. It will spit out some overlooked connections then stop. Maybe the cure for cancer can be found

Remind me who has majority voting power at Meta I wonder if the guy cares about anything in the world other than his rich list position and VR. Certainly not the 'dumb f**' users.

It will be interesting to see what happens when Elon turns Twitter into a payment platform. It's already basically a platform here in Japan for women to advertise their services and arrange encounters with older men... just need to use

I guess one has to be somewhat ill to use such platforms in the first place.

If Meta partnered with hospitals and biotech firms and entered the plastic surgery business I think they could make a lot of money. They've already come this far in exploiting people, why stop?

To the average person I think this announcement sounds better than just inviting over a Microsoft sales rep to meet with the government like Japan did.

Aren't most people who work in tech doing so to buy vanity items? Someone needs to do the work of motivating these people.

I wish Lego would just stick to Lego classic. I don't like having to check all the pieces in a themed set are present when putting them back in the box after my child's finished with it. It's difficult to reuse the pieces for

I don't think what I said was that ridiculous. For most people in the world friend groups are about precisely what I mentioned and anything beyond that is a luxury afforded to few.

I could have been more cynical. I could have said it's often a means of collusion to allow certain regions of the population to elevate their status within the wider group and take advantage of those who are not as well connected. Or s

As someone with a young child this thread feels really odd. I can't imagine the time to ponder such things in between a full time job and parenting (no, 'friends' are not necessary to start a family). What are you all expecti
