well, it didn't say their descriptions were WRONG, just different. The insinuation is that highly social people were informed by what their peers think and say, so their descriptions will likely mirror other socially…
we gotta stop chasing the whole "line go up" ideology. I know that's all capitalism is and how it exists, but we need to be okay with just simply doing well for the sake of doing well. You don't need to instantly go…
haha you built kpopping.com?? I'm not into kpop, but I have loads of friends who are, so this is super impressive!!
I had a great conversation about this the other day with a bunch of strangers- we all shared the exact same early 00's internet experience and were all reminiscing about those halcyon days The internet has completely…
I used Rothko as an example of a famous and in my opinion highly underrated artist that those who "hate art" love to use an example of "bad art" because "anyone could just do that". Of course his pieces are breathtaking…
art is subjective, you need to really think about it, and reflect on it, to engage with it and enjoy it at its greatest depths. For some, this exercise is part of the joy of art. It's like discovering new things, every…
a lot of capitalism is just gambling, and being able to rig the casino so you keep winning doesn't somehow make you a smarter gambler, it doesn't make gambling less wrong, it doesn't make you more deserving because you…
the phenomenon of "red sprites", massive discharges of electricity upwards into the ionosphere that counter every single lightning strike, are only now being observed and photographed. these energy ejections are SO…
maybe he just has big fingers.
what I've noticed is that many arguments have little to do with you, the "opponent", or the topic argued about or even which of you is right. it's more about the arguer re-enforcing their beliefs of being correct, and…
instead, don't do it because it's disrespectful to people. A lot of people weren't made aware- or didn't have the option- to object to that TOS change. Saying "well, THOSE guys do it! why can't I!" isn't a mature…
enshittification is the cute fun name for the concept of becoming a nigh-monopoly by buying out your competition with private equity and destroying it, and then- because the free market has effectively been destroyed-…
in all kindness, you're such an incredibly niche example of actual usage of this, that only proves it should've been opt-in instead of opt-out. I don't need to know what my tabs were 3 months ago. I don't need to…
they themselves said why: Disney is responsible for cancelling, burying, and destroying the records of a lot of shows that fans seem to really love. TAG, the largest animation union, has been raising awareness of…
every piece of writing, every sketch and illustration, and a lot of discussions about the process or development of shows/films/books/games/etc are copyrighted and under NDA. Have you ever worked in entertainment?
no, of course not. Especially not disney. they need every shred of everything, for liability's sake. If someone brings something to HR, they need to be able to tamp it down. They keep receipts of everything, all the…
the generation of kids trained in schools to be used to omnipresent surveillance and data harvesting are now in the workforce, they see no issue with this because they've grown up with it. I see kids on the internet now…
the people who recently leaked a bunch of governmental memos about the republican party a day ago were all furries who were dissatisfied with their far-right hatred of trans people. Maybe, some highly educated people…
I figure its the same reason behind similar issues all across different industries right now, as well as why there's so few jobs in general: a race to the bottom in terms of miniscule budgets, overtaxing employees with…
after everything I've seen and the litigation coming out of europe, I really can't see AI lasting long after they're obligated to prove rights for the data they're training on. they can't get away with having scraped…
Sure. I didn't want to directly link it without being asked because I didn't want to seem like I was promoting anything or anyone, but it's this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXGjwf6zUWY
the more I think about it the more I believe people will, or should at least, return to the OLD internet... things like BBS forums, RSS feeds of people's personal websites or blogs, webrings... things that haven't been…
I watched a great video essay about this. Bots to create fake articles, bots to defect fake articles, bots to use common word salad to evade detection, bots detecting the word salad, bots to make comments on articles,…
Vitamins and minerals can't just be replaced with supplements, bioavailability is a massive part of nutrition. One can't just take pills and assume your GI tract will be able to absorb a majority of that like you're…
