  • TIL why the Mona Lisa became one of the most admired paintings in the world

    Jump

  • That's probably an understanding between the museum and the tour operators, keep the cattle in the main bits so the rest can breath in the other parts.

  • A bit tipsy

  • Thank you, that's what I was thinking, if Nessie was right there under the spill then it could get wasted.

  • There might be something there 🤣 anything for an excuse to open the nice bottle.

  • I mean, I'm French, and I can tell you that respect for the quality bottle will outweigh the benefits from the better liver. Making good stuff is important but a waste of a good drink is sacrilege.

  • Maybe if it was cheap vodka or something but we'd never waste the good stuff like this.

  • Study: Psychologists conclude that social media algorithms have a negative influence on users mental health

    Jump

  • It's much better here without an algorithm, but on the other hand the user base feels pretty ruthless where the blandest opinions net you down votes and angry replies. I only feel safe with jokes and factoids. I think I'm slowly reaching the point where I'll either stop using any online platforms altogether or just 100% lurk.

  • Flawless logic

    Jump

  • It was in the six figures if I recall correctly.

  • Peanut butter

    Jump

  • Right, they're indeed all called peanut cheese but I figured I'd just sound crazy if I said it like that... Helaas, pindakaas.

  • In the Netherlands most of the PB you can buy is 100% peanut in the ingredient list and you just choose smooth or with chunks.

  • Cloudflare says humans could become a "rounding error" as bots generate 1,000 times more internet traffic

    Jump

  • If only that last one was true.

  • Now it's all Ai slop

    Jump

  • This is tempting but also I do use clickbait in a reverse manner (e.g. by avoiding channels that abuse it).

  • Influencers draw backlash for attending OpenAI’s first luxury trip

    Jump

  • I honestly wouldn't lump all of YouTube in the same bag. At the end of the day it's currently one of the only viable platforms for video-based essays and I personally find a ton of valuable stuff there. That said, one miss-step and your algorithm fills up with the influencer crap, so you gotta tread carefully.

  • Life After I Turned 30 [Sarah's Scribbles]

    Jump

  • Well I've had mental problems my whole life so hopefully I'll manage better, it's coming up soon..

  • xkcd #3279: Main Span

    Jump

  • Doesn't even sound that unrealistic to be honest.

  • ænyøne with me?

  • Yope raises $12.3M to build a private social network without algorithms or ads

    Jump

  • He could harvest it more slowly over time, we regenerate it. Hell he might already have that ready to go in the fridge.

  • The EU is about to sell your most sensitive data to the US for visa-free travel - European Digital Rights (EDRi)

    Jump

  • Not a visa, just an ESTA.

  • France orders internet providers to block access to Polymarket prediction site

    Jump

  • I agree when it comes to pirate websites and other shady stuff but I think those guys are a "legitimate" business, even if disgusting, and if France bans them from operating on the territory and they knowingly enable french people to use the site, could still be trouble. I have no idea how they function but I'd be surprised if they don't even make you ID yourself on there similar to a trading app?..

  • France orders internet providers to block access to Polymarket prediction site

    Jump

  • Accessing the site is one thing but what about transferring money to/from?
