  • What is something you dont care to understand or "get"?

  • But why though?

  • Spicy food.

    I can't comprehend how individuals or entire cultures choose to just deal with the pain until they build a tolerance.

    Sure it probably made sense when the choice was to starve or to eat something that hurts (even a little), but as soon as non-painful food was available, why continue with the kind containing "Don't eat me!" chemicals?

  • What band/artist have you seen live more than once, would gladly go see again, and what keeps you coming back?

    Jump

  • Genuine answer: Weird Al

    He puts on an incredible show every time. The costume changes alone put most artists to shame. He's just as enthusiastic and active as he was over 40 years ago (Seriously, the man is 66)

    And of course the songs and skits are hilarious.

    We have tickets to see him this year for the second time on his current tour.

  • On the unfortunate need for an "age verification" API for legal compliance reasons in some U.S. states

    Jump

  • That is a good point. Websites also if they are visited daily or if a web beacon or such can access the API.

    Manually adjusting the brackets until 18+ (or just lying about the precise date) would grant more privacy. I can see making that trade-off though.

  • If you had a small part from a song play every time you entered a room with other people, what would you want your theme to be?

    Jump

  • I just can't see it.

    Jump

  • As an option, so it can automatically increment the brackets.

  • It's not though. It's literally asking the user "how old are you?" and not even caring if they lie. It's not even requiring a date, just a number of years.

  • Cherenkov radiation

    You know sonic booms? This is basically like 'optical booms' from radiation in water that's traveling faster than the speed-of-light-in-water (which is less than the speed of light in a vacuum)

  • What is your funniest case of misheard song lyrics?

    Jump

  • When I was a kid listening to the oldies station, I heard "Little blue scoop" instead of deuce coupe.

    Later my mom actually called in and requested it that way. I think they played the request on air.

  • Introducing Habitat - A Social Platform for Local Communities

    Jump

  • So I notice one bit of missing information: where is that place?

    Besides curiosity, there's also the practical question of whether it's the right one to sign up for:Say I encounter one named "Springfield" - how would I know which of the 93 (in the US alone) it is?

    I propose having a map on the About page showing the area covered, with the ability to zoom out and see which state/province/etc, which country, and which continent.

  • What are some Ship of Theseus bands, where all original members have been replaced by someone new?

  • I hacked ChatGPT and Google's AI – and it only took 20 minutes

    Jump

  • Basically just host a blog and on it say outrageous things about something obscure (such as yourself) and wait for it to be picked up.

  • My Lemmy client shows a page summary (guess it's in the header or something):

    I found a way to make AI tell you lies – and I'm not the only one.

    My immediate response is: Yes of course, just ask it questions.

    The actual article is interesting though. They mean poisoning the data it scrapes intentionally and super easily.

  • I was thinking Hammond - old and rich (at least beforehand)

  • If you were able to magically learn any language that nobody speaks in your region, what would it be?

    Jump

  • "Region" would have to be extremely small around here to not include someone who speaks almost any (natural) language a typical person could think of.

    I'll just go ahead and answer a different question: If I could instantly learn any language and my SO could instantly learn it also, I'd pick ASL, because it would be very nice to have a way to communicate that works where talking either doesn't work (loud places, for example) or would disturb others, or just across a large room.

  • I have to admit a song is popular when I recognize the v= code. It certainly does get a ton of listens, year after year.
