(It’s Kamala if you don’t want to read it.)

I don't care what anyone says about you, you're awesome my friend.

For all of y'all thinking about typing it out, the video is no longer available.

We'll never know.

Wow, republicans losing Texas, that would be a hell of a win if Colin could pull it off.

There was a conversation awhile back about how any term used to describe someone with a disability eventually becomes a slur and history tends to back that up, but I'd say 'special needs' is probably about the least offensive qualifier we have today.

For 4chan, that's like a miracle.

But yes, what kind of unit is this?

How lifelong friendships are made.

Just a heads up, I see you joined lemmy.world , the dbzer0 piracy community that I think you may have come for is blocked there, so may not be able to access it from where you are.

I know it's kinda confusing.

I definitely support that we've pushed this show out of the forefront, but this is where a lot of the arguments for the flag as a 'symbol of southern pride' come from. It's a weird argument, and it is definitely not a fair one, but there's very fond associations in the south with that car even from people who had no clue where the flag came from. Super successful attempt to help the confederate flag be seen as acceptable, whether on purpose or not.

It's a weird show too for someone who isn't from the south... Racial diversity is non-existent in the show, but that's also pretty accurate for its location... It had some awesome car scenes, but no depth. The only hot take in the show beyond the flag painted on top (which wasn't even a hot take then) was that the government was widely seen as corrupt and it was more than a bit sexist.

On the other hand, every person who has killed a United Healthcare CEO has played Among US, checkmate.

Alexa has a tendency to give you the 'featured' product no matter how precisely and specifically you ask her for something. Even if you don't have to research and know exactly what you want, it's almost always easier to just go find your phone.

The real game changer for Alexa was always having a voice assistant that you can integrate with just about whatever you want that isn't tied to someone's phone. The idea of going into someone's house and just saying 'Alexa, turn on the kitchen lights' or 'Alexa, is it cold outside?' is where the Alexa magic lies, but Amazon never could figure out how to make that profitable on it's own, just doesn't contribute to the business case.

So, you're not wrong, but you've also missed the point of the interaction. This wasn't a conversation where exchange of information was the goal, this was a bid for you to validate her feelings. The response she was seeking was empathy for what she was dealing with and by adding context and trying to explain it instead, you've kind of headed in the opposite direction.

Yes, I know, it's incredibly frustrating.

If you saw what looked like a giant ninja mask wearing anthropomorphic turtle stuffed into a trench coat, are you going to say anything?

The disguise is just a courtesy to let the average human have plausible deniability.

I would think the fact that they're silent indicates that they don't have a fix that they like.

If that's the case, I'd imagine they'd keep silent until that changes or they get sued.

I'm not a fan of Andrew Tate, but we really got to lay off the hate on wife beaters. Tank tops are real comfy yall.

I do feel like we may have hit a time where the groups classifying CVEs are a bit desperate for numbers. It's really hard to tell the legitimate ones from the ones where it's like "If you had tiny gremlins with soldering irons living inside your PC, its possible they might be able to determine what year your computer thinks it is. The gremlins are assumed to have full domain admin access".

Rhymes don't matter if it's a polar bear.

I'm legitimately at the point where I hope they don't pivot and are just forced to sell off their IP. There's just too many reasons to not like them.

I kinda feel like voice search is just an inherently bad platform for shopping.

Supposedly... Home & Kitchen is the most popular category on Amazon, consumer choice comes into that so rapidly that it's hard for it to make sense with just audio feedback or even a tiny screen like the show.

no,So many goods cannot be produced by children, it is inefficient

Lol, love the focus on productivity, knows how to read the room.

I'm with you, they seem to really like being the underdogs and it seems to work out well for them from a fundraising perspective. It definitely feels like they're angling to just barely lose.

I hope they eventually prove me wrong too, but it does feel like when they do well enough to win it's mostly an unfortunate accident in their eyes.

The talk around weight loss is kinda crazy and a lot of it is dominated by pseudoscience.

However, we are pretty much positive that eating at a calorie deficit will result in weight loss in 99.9% of cases and you aren't going to be the 0.1%. There's a lot of anecdotal data about how eating too little will make you stop losing weight or even gain more weight because of your 'metabolism', but no controlled studies that show that to be a significant contributor without other causes. It's not some magical metabolism trick, you're just cheating on your metrics and doing less because you're tired and cranky and have no energy because you aren't eating right.

Saying that, eating at a massive deficit can definitely make you feel like shit and will make it hard to exercise, do not recommend. You will also likely have a part of your brain dedicated to fantasizing about food 24/7 and your libido will likely be in the trash if that matters to you. This will be very hard to maintain, and you have to remember that there's never going to be a day where you can go back to eating like 'normal'. Your current normal is why you need to lose weight and your goal is to eventually establish a new baseline.

Lastly, highly recommend against adding calories back due to exercise. We don't have a lot of good data about there being any reliable indicators of actual calories burned available to the average person and you'll find a tremendous amount of super variable answers when you find instances where people tried to actually test the estimates you see online. The time you put into exercise isn't about weight loss, it will help, but it's a bonus just for you because you deserve to have the body that you want.
