OP is the world’s foremost shower deliberator.

I have a reel mower, and my leaf blower is pretty quiet, but thanks.

Yes.

Yeah but the whole solar system is moving at 720,000 km/h, so all those bikes on other planets are moving just as fast.

It’s not rocket appliances!

No thanks, our conservatives are further to the left than your Democrats, and California has the population of the rest of Canada combined. You can make your own country

Yeah, it does. But I think the intent of “Magastan” is to draw a comparison to “those countries”. But this is stooping down to Trump’s level imo

Don’t sully the “-stan” countries like that, they don’t deserve that association.

You can always do that manually when creating the post

True, but you won’t. You’ll click the button that automatically populates it instead.

I do think AI could enforce having a quick summary at a glance… if it was reliably accurate. But again, why do that and prevent traffic from going to the people who did all the work

Yeah, that’s why I don’t like the summary idea, because then even fewer people would click through. It also requires opening the comments which also most people won’t do.

I guess fewer people click through with less sensational headlines too, but at least they’re not mislead.

I know we all hate AI here… But getting an AI to rewrite headlines to de-sensationalize them sounds like a fantastic feature for a Lemmy client to implement. Just need mods to allow it

I can quit anytime. Right after I see what’s after the next blind.

Balatro

Not really, he was already insanely popular before this. Just won a third majority a week ago, which is unheard of in Ontario politics. It’s more that he knows how to connect with people and the electorate is very gullible / willing to turn a blind eye.

With all this recent goodwill he’ll probably end up being our prime minister at some point shudder

My Hispanic in-laws had to go to the states to take care of some elderly family, and they said the Spanish translations of what he’s saying make him sound much smarter than what he’s actually saying in English. Like they change the words, use proper grammar and the tone of voice doesn’t come through the translator.

Not saying this is an excuse in any way, but I thought that was interesting.

There’s millions of young people who are just starting to pay attention. We continue to point out the hipocrasy for them. Lest their only point of reference come from the conservatives.

1. There are in fact a ton of services that browsers interface with on behalf of a user. Always have been. For example, Firefox uses the Google Safe Browsing service to protect against phishing. They use location services to fulfill the Geolocation API. They call DNS servers to find the website you want, etc, etc.

2. Applications do have terms, they’re called EULA’s. It’s the same idea. Also nothing new, I’ve been clicking through that shit since the year 2000.

Socksucker?

Any of the Joe Richardson games are obvious picks.

• Four Last Things
• A Procession of Cavalry
• Death of the Reprobate

If it quacks like a duck…

3. You know Putin would throw every possible resource into influencing that election. He’s damn good at it now too
