Giving up. Just skipping straight to the end.

Sure seems like a lot less work and stress than what I've been doing.

But I think I'd miss my dogs way too much.

I imagine a lot of people would end up like homelander. Only playing the superhero role to get likes or feel loved but being very evil when no one would know.

Personally, I think I would give the superhero thing a go as I do like helping people, but very likely I'd end up like Red Son or Injustice Superman. It would depend on the powers and if other supes exist, but it is very believable to end up going to extremes to just try and make the world a "better" place if no one could stop me. What's a few lives here or there when you believe you are saving so many more?

What will they think of next? Google really is turning into a real-life IE meme.

Thanks. I hope they never have to.

😄 It seems fitting that a person with your name would reply since this is pretty much how I get through things now.

Is that An Honest Mistake by The Bravery? Not sure why you would want to skip that song, it's pretty great.

Looks like all the top songs are Disney. Moana, The Lion King, Aladdin, The Princess and the Frog. I'm just wondering if that first one is from Tron Legacy? If it is, I'd have to say the daughter has better taste in music. 😆

Looks like the web version is lacking it. The apps both desktop and phone support the feature.

One setting is in the apps settings. Auto play will play similar content once the current Playlist ends if repeat (and maybe shuffle?) is off.

In playlists you have made you can toggle Smart Shuffle which mixes recommendations into your shuffled playlist while it is toggled on. It doesn't seem to work with the radio feature but I think Autoplay does.

Yea, work computers suck, our company blocks spotify at the network so I just have to use my phone and cellular.

There is a smart Playlist called daylist. I haven't used it much but it updates throughout each day. Might be worth checking out if you want different music at work. https://newsroom.spotify.com/2023-09-12/ever-changing-playlist-daylist-music-for-all-day/

You're one to talk. The only excuse you have is that you seem to have something against people who identify as men. Yea, real amazing argument there. Congrats on identifying as a basic leftist bitch with no common sense.

I don't appreciate someone trying to steal my right to bear arms away from me, risking my safety and restricting my right to defend myself from criminals simply because they don't like tools that go Boom Boom Boom.

Go back to reddit where you belong.

I don't know for sure but I would guess Pandora worked the same, it just didn't show you the list. There is a feature in Spotify for it to continue playing similar songs once it hits the end of a list but I think the initial list is always the same for that song or artist radio.

Yea, hopefully, there is a better choice when the time comes, but WW3 or Civil War 2 is probably more likely than getting a decent candidate anytime soon that actually has a chance of winning.

Fuck, I wish my company moved that fast. I'll likely be dealing with trying to get hundreds of systems upgraded or replaced to Windows 11 sometime in 2028q4. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ At least it gives me some time to breathe. We just finished our last upgrades to Windows 10 last year. 😢

Does the "DJ" talk a lot? I saw that yesterday, but when I clicked it, they went on for a while to introduce themselves, and I noped out of it because listening to a DJ talk is exactly why I avoid listening to the radio anymore.

The main reason I stick with spotify is its generated for me playlists. Some weeks they can be pretty bad but a lot of the time they have songs that I end up adding to my liked songs. It's actually how I found the top 5th band on my wrapped 2023 and 4 of the 5 top songs.

If you haven't used the Playlist like discover weekly or the daily mix ones, I highly recommend trying them.

Spotify does have its own radio feature. Find a song and open the context menu and select Go to Song Radio. I use this sometimes but I don't think it works as well as the playlists.

The problem with this take is that you are assuming there is a potential job or hours there to begin with that never existed in the first place and never will. Walmart has always had 15 checkout lanes and only two cashiers, even before self checkouts were a thing.

I guess you have a private chauffeur because you wouldn't want that person to not have a job due to you selfishly driving your own car around.

And how many porters do you employ to carry you around all day. I know you wouldn't want to cost any of them their jobs by walking around on your own two legs.

Instructions unclear, dick stuck in mysterious hole.

As technology advances, some jobs are going to disappear, but hopefully, those new technologies also add new jobs that didn't exist before. Back in the day, it used to take a whole lot of people to harvest a field. Now it's all done by one guy and a big tractor or two. But people need to build those tractors, program the controller, repair them as they break, etc. More kiosk and self checkouts are going to need techs and repairs. It's just how things work. It probably won't be long when some store switches back to using actually staff because it's a unique feature when no one else has human staff anymore. Like how people buy Amish furniture now because it's like the only way to get handmade furniture today.

Saying to leave a mess so a company "has" to hire a janitor is just a dumb way to express the idea that there needs to be more jobs.

I get the fear that if automation keeps picking up, there may be a time where there truly aren't enough jobs to go around, (A.I. is really fucking scary at how fast it is improving) but hopefully if technology advances that far we'll also see improvements in agriculture, housing, and power generation to the point that people don't need a shitty $15 an hour job or a "free" paycheck just to not starve to death in the street because hopefully providing clean water and food won't be as hard as it is now.

Universal basic income is just a dumb idea. You are taking money from someone who works hard for a living, making life harder for them, just so someone else doesn't have to work for a living. It is the core concept of communism. What happens when no one wants to work because they can just get the free income? Did your teachers really never do the average grading experiment with you? Instead of getting the grade you actually got on an assignment, everyone just gets the classes' average grade. No one should fail, but at the cost of a few good students getting worse letter grades. It lasts for one or two assignments before most people just stop doing the work and now everyone is failing because the few people that are still doing the work can't get high enough grades to average a whole class of zeros out to more than Fs.

If it's something you are really concerned about, then really try to find a solution that doesn't involve forced labor on one group of people, so another group can benefit. Our ancestors did that shit for years back when it still took people to harvest a farm, and most people are still pretty upset about it to this very day.

This election is too important to fuck up, so this messaging has got me concerned.

If the election is that important, then maybe vote for someone who is actually sending out a clear and sane message that you agree with.

Even Hitler tried to do what he thought was best for his country and made it clear that was his goal. Sad thing is he probably would have succeeded too if he didn't fuck with everyone else too.

I don't plan on voting for another 4 years of what is currently going on and the guy that sent 7.2B worth of our tax dollars to a country of terrorists and then refuses to step in when they continue killing innocent people probably doesn't deserve your vote either.

I really hope there is a better choice than what we've seen the last two times. Otherwise, we're all screwed no matter what way it goes.

The Germans voted him into power for a reason, but who knows, maybe they just wanted to vote blue no matter who or maybe his "make Germany great again" speeches where just to die for.

If you can't see how and why someone like Hitler got elected to be the leader of Germany and made it as far as he did, then how are you going to stop it from happening again?

But yea, that's just nonsense, I'm just sad his re-election was stolen from him by the Americans. \s

Seems like the type of guy everyone should know about. 🤔 He is responsible for the murder of between 5 and 17 million people, but I guess you probably don't think they are worth knowing about either?
