  • Shoppers can be made to feel sorry for single bananas, study finds

    Jump

  • I hate that this would work on me. I'm also stingy as fuck which comes in handy here but I can absolutely hear myself go "aww" at a stupid single banana.

  • Dude, just do the dishes!

    Jump

  • Truly a wake-up call. Never clean your pans. Best not clean any dishes. /j

  • What are the pros and cons of a sterilizing (~95%) plague?

    Jump

  • What are the pros and cons of a disease that leaves people sterile? Uh.

    Con: it's a disease.

  • Bluesky is breaking the rules in the EU

    Jump

  • “All platforms in the EU . . . have to have a dedicated page on their website where it says how many users they have in the EU and where they are legally established,” said commission spokesman Thomas Regnier. “This is not the case for Bluesky as of today. This is not followed.”

    Saved you a click.

  • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • Okay. Then I don't get it.

  • Losing Pulaski was almost as bad as losing Dr. Janet Fraiser

    Jump

  • Haha, yeah, so true bestie, wait what? ... Oh. Star Trek, not Doctor Who.

  • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • Goodness gracious, that seems plausible.

    OP, if that's what you're saying, you need to rephrase everything.

  • How decentralized is Bluesky really?

    Jump

  • It doesn't appear for everyone to see.

    I feel like we're talking past each other and it's too exhausting to try and get across what I'm saying. Have a pleasant day.

  • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • Wha? I'm so confused. Am I being manipulated in this scenario into thinking someone else is right or am I manipulating someone else into thinking I am right? Maybe you have a more concrete example?

  • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • Yeah, that's just the perception of being right. Doesn't say anything about the actual truth of the claim.

  • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • I'm not sure I even understand the question. How does manipulation make you "right"? You might be perceived as being right but that obviously doesn't mean you ARE right.

  • How decentralized is Bluesky really?

    Jump

  • And yet, everybody stayed until the Muskrat took over. Because until then it wasn't the platform telling people to be nazis and nazis were a nuisance but a minority - as are people who falsely accuse scientists of being anti-science on BSky. That's exactly what I'm saying.

  • How decentralized is Bluesky really?

    Jump

  • Is it "widely used"? An aim bot directly affects everybody else, actively making the game worse. This only affects a small number of people who choose to opt-in and trust the labeller's opinion. I can't even find that labeller and I learnt about it from you. And again, it's not BSky that offers the labeller - that IS an important distinction.

  • How decentralized is Bluesky really?

    Jump

  • I do think it matters a lot whether it's a thing the app offers natively to everybody or something certain users have implemented on their own and that other users can choose to use or not. You don't blame the contents of a mod on the game itself, do you?

  • How decentralized is Bluesky really?

    Jump

  • "They" don't have that. Most labellers are user made and people can subscribe to them or not.

  • Are there good uses for the blockchain?

    Jump

  • I'm just here to tell you that this is a very US centric view. I'm not from the US and, outside of random internet posts, there are no records of any of my political associations, past or present, and I've voted in all local and national elections for >20 years. Seeing as extremist forces are unfortunately currently gaining power over here, I REALLY wouldn't want any type of public record even hinting at who exactly I've been voting for.

  • Does anyone else feel like tech peaked around 10+ years ago?

    Jump

  • Fucking hell it's true. This is exactly the kind of obscure nonsense I love, how did it take me 30 years to learn this?

  • The thing is, other shitty people care. They see how we treat dead shitty people and, because humans are irrational, see it as a reward for their behaviour in life. That's also why I'm against the notion of not speaking ill of the dead - no, people need to realise that they won't be respected when they're dead if they were shitty.

    I know it doesn't matter, rationally. But humans are weird and care about what people will think when they're gone.
