If you just call it terrorism more people will understand you. I understand you’re trying to draw a distinction and I’m here to tell you as someone who grew up in a rural town of 1200 people…just call it terrorism. These people aren’t backtracking on language because they thought of an exception. It’s part of why they hate us.

Photoshop is easier to use than gimp. I don’t pay for photoshop, but if I needed something like that I would.

It’s gonna be so fucking rich that the staggering mass of stupidity online prevents us from improving an AI beyond our intelligence level.

Thank the shitposter in your life.

This is the most inspiring thing I’ve read since the one where AI decided to maximize shareholder value by minimizing shareholders and nuked Wall Street.

Ah YouTube, the site where I watch a video that tells me in ten minutes what I could read in one. And only 5 advertisements!

Oops, six. I forgot the ad the creator slipped in between minute 1 and 2.

Lol means a lot of things to us. It’s hard to put into language. A signal we’re kidding, we’re uncomfortable expressing an emotion through text, we’re nervous, we don’t want something taken the wrong way, we’re expressing casual empathy. There’s more to lol than laughing, I’m sure someone has done a study on it by now.

Edit: for some background context, we’re the children of the most successful generation in human history. They were born in a time that had some of the most favorable conditions for success at any point in human development. People paid for college with part time jobs. People bought houses on one wage. People could afford a nice vacation, and had a pension.

Things changed, but our parents didn’t notice. They couldn’t handle failure so they invented participation trophies and then ridiculed us for them when it became convenient. They used their money to make investments in property, drove up rent and prices and then called us lazy for not owning a home yet.

We are a nervous generation. We were told things that aren’t true anymore and then held up against that untrue standard to measure our success in a game that was always rigged. So we say lol.

Ancient engineers: let’s make it work.

Modern engineers: we need to make sure it breaks at approximately 36 months to ensure low ability to claim warranty while also ensuring the customer believes it could have been a fluke.

Or, roughly translated into engineer speak…”anyone can build an aqueduct, it takes skill to build an aqueduct using the minimum amount of material required”.

If Linux was dominant it wouldn’t be Linux. There would be more pressure to monetize and there would always be someone willing to sell out for that money. You can see this even in the Linux community today. I’m sorry I had to be so negative about it though, it sounds nice.

Pick my kid up from daycare. She’s got a quarter strip of bacon. Holds it up to my mouth and when I go to bite shoves the whole thing into her mouth. You had a long run, I was struck down before she could form a burn into words.

I’m gonna preface this with I haven’t used discord in a year or so.

It’s kinda fun watching a new generation go through their first redesign outrage.

Bankruptcy isn’t a get out of debt free card. It’s a “you’re gonna sell this stuff to pay off your creditors” card.

His sons were involved in the lawsuit and cannot legally do business in New York.

They are referring to the litter box you can’t smell anymore due to smell blindness. I love a nice cat, but it’s really frustrating how many people insist the litter box in their house doesn’t smell.

I made it up, I think. It’s possible I really did read that somewhere and it popped up though.

That’s for one container of wholesale batter, IHOP is not paying that price because they’re buying a lot more.

I don’t know if this is helpful, but when I worked at Olive Garden 10 years ago, a spaghetti and meat sauce cost them $1.09. That includes everything, labor, etc.

I’m trying to imagine having any part of my identity tied to an object.

70% of survival with adhd is fighting the urge to elaborate.
