  • And that’s why, sir, Massgrave exists.

  • In my honest opinion, these people should not have pets. If they brainlessly follow random TikTok person instead of actual proven products specially made for pets, what else will they do when a random person says something?

  • Why do iphone users still see their phones as a status symbol

    Jump

  • Uh, I don’t. It’s just a phone I use. That’s it.

    Teenagers and students are just that; teenagers and students. Very often they care about ‘status symbol’ but also sometimes they don’t care.

    I would recommend to stop generalizing.

    How do I increase reputation?

    Jump

  • At least you guys won't have a nicole there.

    I forgot that person (or bot) even existed, just block the account. That’s what I did.

  • Cory Doctorow New Book: Enshitification

    Jump

  • Anyone read other books of his and if so, do you recommend them?

  • Middle Aged Folks with no social group: How do you do it?

    Jump

  • How do y’all do it?

    In a sort of similar boat in the sense of no friends, not really an active social life and for now, work means nothing but getting the money (will change in a year though when I quit for a new job). Plus having OCD and social anxiety (diagnosed by a specialist).

    I keep myself busy with things, I like: Gaming, reading books/ manga, tv shows and anime. I'm also trying to get myself into a bit of different things such as learning a language (isn't going well though) or trying to educate myself more into things I find interesting.

  • Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward

    Jump

  • Thanks, going to try out LibreOffice. Does it has same (or similar) functions as Word itself?

  • Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward

    Jump

  • Thanks, I’ll look into Markdown!

    Or is it about saving notes to cloud?

    No, that’s not it. I just want a Word-alike thing that allows me to put a password on it and use it as a ‘modern diary’ (like how you can make chapters and such in Word).

    Not sure if I explained it well, English isn’t my native language. So wasn’t sure how to explain it

  • Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward

    Jump

  • I have a Word document saved into my ‘personal account vault’ which is for personal thoughts (like a diary). Does this mean, they’ll automatically upload this too into their cloud?

    If that’s the case, not sure what to do. Tempted to go back to old school diary but risk the chance of my family finding it.

  • NSFW Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • I used to be a social smoker (cigarettes, shisha and randomly a cigar). However, I quit years ago with it.

    I once had a thought “we are like a lucifer lighter, isn’t it? We smoke, smoke and smoke. Get all burned up and then throw away our lives because of it”.

    At that moment, I told myself; no more. Quit cold-turkey. I never drink alcohol (due to religion).

  • Spotify fans threaten to return to piracy as music streamer introduces new face-scanning age checks in the UK

  • Threads is nearing X's daily app users, new data shows

    Jump

  • So, I looked it up and figured out it was like that previously. They changed their policy now.

    However, if you delete your Instagram account, it will also delete your Threads account because apparently Instagram is directly linked to the Threads account.

    How would they even have that ability?

    So this answer your question; I assume it’s due to the linking of the account (Instagram and Threads account)

  • How terrorist groups are leveraging AI to recruit and finance their operations

    Jump

  • Which group? Israel government or US government?

  • Threads is nearing X's daily app users, new data shows

    Jump

  • How’s Threads anyway? Once I heard they don’t allow you to simply delete your account, I noped out of it.

    Not sure if it is true but apparently if you want to delete your account, it’ll also delete your Instagram account?

  • Men are opening up about mental health to AI instead of humans

    Jump

  • Of course men will go to an AI for their problems, they can't fathom going to a woman for honest advice.

    This seems a bit far-fetched, don’t you think? There could be so many reasons as to why someone would rather use AI than going to another person for advice (this is not just about women).

    Honestly, as someone who actually went to therapy and yes, my therapist was a woman. It’s was quite tough to open up and be vulnerable.

    I think for some people using AI, they might feel as if they’re not that vulnerable because it is not a person. However, they don’t realize that there’s data is being gathered.

    And as a result, they gaslight themselves with a worse version of ELIZA.

    With this, I can’t figure out whether you’re serious, trolling or just writing randomly.

  • Does anyone else feel overwhelmed by how the world is going this year?

    Jump

  • No, not really. I’m more overwhelmed by the fact I knew very little about the past. I deep dived into couple of things and now wonder the sanity of humanity.

    Also the fact that people just do not learn from the past. People rather ignore all the things and repeat it again, again and again.

    I have even become more pessimistic about humanity than, I already was. Because of this, I tend to avoid the news a bit more to at least keep my mental health in check.

    Microsoft blocks emails that contain ‘Palestine’ after employee protests

    Jump

  • i hate microshaft, but come on now. i sincerely dont know how they are implicit. please explain.

    I will provide three articles, the rest is up to you to do research. Because you know, when you write here the way you do, you should know these things already.

    1. BDS Movement Article.
    2. Microsoft employee slams leadership at company event over complicity in Israeli 'genocide'.
    3. Microsoft finally acknowledges supplying AI services to Israel but denies Gaza genocide complicity.

    I will not respond to any of your comments because you have proven that, you have not done any research.

    Microsoft blocks emails that contain ‘Palestine’ after employee protests

    Jump

  • what has gaza to do in the workplace emails? nothing. same with israel.

    Everything when the company you work for is complicit* in genocide of Palestinian people.

    you work and then go home where you can write what you want to who you want.

    Yeah, some people do who give no care about the company they work for is complicit in genocide. However, some humans still have humanity within them. They do care. They’ll protest.

    EDIT: Changed “implicit” to “complicit”
