Obviously it's higher. If it was any lower, they would've made a huge announcement out of it to prove they're better than the competition.

I don't believe so, I think it has to do more with seeing something novel that you don't get to see every day. Like, not many people have the means to fill a house with elephant toothpaste, so when someone does that it makes for a pretty entertaining video.

This is the first time they've been caught. It would be naive to think this is the only time this has happened. No doubt they've scrubbed data of bad actors on their side many times without anyone knowing.

I ate the hell out of this onion ngl

It's almost as if removing LiDAR cameras in favor of traditional cameras "because they're stupid" was the most idiotic ketamine-fueled decision a company could ever make. Why anyone believes Teslas can drive themselves in uncertain situations is beyond me.

Minecraft. Started playing in 2011 and have played off and on every year since then. It's now really popular again, but I distinctly remember around 2017-18 it became suddenly uncool to play. When I would be in a VC with friends while playing it, they would ride my ass for it. The ~10 year nostalgia/hype cycle is coming full circle lol

any chance we could move that to next week?

the EPA announced they're rolling back regulations on forever chemicals today. the crew behind veritasium timed the release of this video so perfectly that i can't help but wonder if they held it in the backlog waiting for this admin's EPA to do some dumb shit.

this person is literally a child lol

The lack of continuous and backlogged content. For some this is a benefit because it gives them a reason to stop scrolling, but for others who come here to look for answers, find entertainment, or anonymously voice their opinions, this can be something of a downside.

Of course this platform is as anonymous as you make it, but I've seen some people say they refrain from commenting more often because they don't want to be known as a regular, instead wanting to "blend in to the crowd" as one would on more populous sites like Reddit or Twitter.

I'm a pretty conservative game purchaser. I've never paid over $40 for a game (including games on sale) because there are so, so many amazing indie games on Steam that charge so little for many hours of fun.

When I see a AAA game come out, I know it's going to be profit-driven, uninspired, and rushed because it exists solely for the purpose of making money for a large corp. For that reason (among others), I avoid them altogether because I know my dollar goes way further going toward an independent developer who makes games for passion (and only sometimes for money). The passion always shines through in their work, unlike passionless AAA games.

Why do they exclusively only cancel good shows (Mindhunter, Inside Job, now this) and keep up actual garbage?? I don't think Netflix has made a wise business decision ever, the only reason they're successful is because they were the first. They're lucky Blockbuster didn't buy them.

I actually just had this problem a couple weeks back. I was using revanced spotify but I had to keep re-patching it because it kept breaking. Eventually, I became so frustrated I said fuck spotify and found ViTune which is a fork of ViMusic (which is now defunct).

It workes exactly how I would want a music app to work. No accounts, no algorithms, just search for the song you want. You might get a playback error if you're using a VPN, but that's literally the only complaint I have about it.

as a fellow artist, fuck those guys. they don't deserve to see your posts, so write "go fuck yourself" in a few more words and block em. they don't give your art any consideration, so why should you give them any consideration back? if they can't take a break from having their heads up their asses to view your receipts, then maybe they don't deserve to view your posts in the first place.

please keep posting. i've been more liberal about my use of the block button recently and it's been a real liberating experience.

If abject racism is Republicans' best criticism of Mamdani's policies, then that bodes really well for his platform.

I wonder if there's a market here. I feel like a company that cleans up AI bullshit would make bank lol

it's just hard for some people to appreciate the good things in life. that's valid considering the state of the world right now, but we still need to celebrate victories where they appear. overt pessimism does no good for anyone

right on. this tweet is like saying "there's not a single country in africa that starts with the letter K." there obviously is, but it's targeting people who are knowledgable enough to know the answer but not intelligent enough to understand the point of the tweet.

Tankies on their way to hate private ownership and dictatorship of the bourgeoisie so much that they begin to love state ownership and dictatorship of the bureacracy

so true. any real journalist would've scrutinized this study, but now all journalists need for an article is a 9 year old tweet from a guy with 4 followers
