The worst is people verbally explaining what you’re seeing like a fucking documentary. It’s extra bad because they stole the video they’re narrating.
Even better is a split screen video where the bottom half is someone playing Minecraft or some really simple platform game because people don’t have the attention span to learn some dumb fact without also watching some game on half of their screen.
I really hate this version of the internet.
Worst hand job ever.
the former is even worse
Amazon is worse than Amazon?
In this day and age, the regular site should serve a mobile-friendly page on a phone. There is CSS to detect the browser size and orientation and change the style.
They need to fix their mobile website. It has large side margins for no reason, and the comic is tiny. I have to zoom in every time I visit to read the comic. Makes no sense.
slingshotted
The proper term is slingshat.
Not sermon. “Semon”. It’s Jamaican cum.
I guess. Not really.
“Peak Design has not provided customer information to the police and would only do so under the order of a subpoena"
That’s not the same as saying “We are against our employees calling the police when they see a suspect in our store.” after an employee does that. That’s what I’m talking about.
On the other hand, very few corporations would volunteer data without a court order. That’s normal. We’re not talking about that. We’re talking about coming out and saying, “We don’t support our employees calling the police on a suspect.” That’s something very few—or no—corporations would do.
It’s two very different statements and situations.
So, I guess boycott every corporation. 🤷🏼♂️
Like, not even your favorite non-profit would say that. You’re literally expecting the impossible.
Riiight. 'Cause that’s something any corporation would say, ever.
And say what?
I love how people are blaming McDonald’s—and boycotting them—for the actions of a single employee. How does that make any sense?
Watch the video. Or don’t. I don’t care. Everything you said is strictly true, but unless you look like a body builder, it’s not as big of a calorie drain as many people think.
Yes, and I said as much. All I said is I watched a video that says the amount of extra calories burned per additional unit of muscle mass is not as much as everyone seems to think. The video was backed by science and your anecdote is not. I edited my original comment to add a link to the video.
I am still wondering if having more muscles could also make you starve faster because your basic metabolism would require more energy?
A recent video by Kurtzgesagt has lead me to believe that having lots of muscle doesn’t increase your basal metabolic rate very much. It’s a myth. It’s using your muscles that burns more energy. Simply maintaining extra muscle doesn’t burn all that many extra calories.
I would venture that having extra muscle would mean it would take longer for you to starve.
both the arrest and conviction of the suspect
Makes perfect sense, but that’s just a matter of time.
might not be eligible for [the NYPD] part of the reward.
OK, so maybe they won’t be getting 10k of the 60k. They would still get 50k if he’s convicted. So many people are definitively saying that they’re getting none of the money, and that makes no sense.
I was thinking the same thing. So why is everyone on Lemmy saying “The snitch didn’t even get the money, so they did it for nothing!”
Anyone have a citation about the rat not getting the money? People keep saying that, but I haven’t seen a single article posted about it.
¡Exactamente!
Same, but once in a while I start watching a short from one of my subscriptions and then start scrolling. I guess because I watch some gaming content, YouTube thinks I want to watch that drivel.
