Congrats, you setup an algorithm that aims to trigger real people to behave a certain way by tricking their subconscious trough language.

You might call this business, i call it enshitification.

When people need an app they are able to look for a fit and compare optioned tailored to their needs, ideally using factual neutral information about similar apps.

Customers who are lured into clicking based purely on a ad are not making a deliberate decision for themselves and while you are not responsible for their actions you are preying on it.

To me, and this is an opinion: All software should Be open source and free, all software should exist to the benefit of all people and preferably be well documented, and public advertisement of any kind should be contained within very strict limits.

5cm too long. We all know 42.0 cm is where things should be.

Scohol sounds a lot cooler tbh.

Me: wondering where the sword went and thinking its about link being in rainbow one hit invincible mode.

They are just kids i know but like its not like they where allowed innocence with school shootings and ice taking families apart.

“They have to wear it somehow”

The elephant may disagree with that.

Drop in what bucket?

The one we keep the deficit? The interest on existing debt are paid with new loans. This bucket has no bottom. Money is seizing to have its own value in the long run and the numbers are just a measurement of consumed energy.

Isn’t this kinda what you want?

I am an uncontrollable perfectionist in this scenario. I have yet to start to write down any of the narratives that have lived in my head for years because i feel the tiniest detail or Nuance needs a research paper of its own for it to make sense.

I am more likely to die of old age then write a single chapter but someone is going to inherit a huge collection of neo-science articles.

Actually if you look closely there are tons of differences. Look at the pipe going up to the ceilling.

This guys problem is not the monster its the fact that toggling that switch zaps him to a strikingly similar but entirely different universe.

In essence i agree but in context of the strategy of flooding the media i cant help but feel like for every something like this, which is funny and In some way hopeful but not a ongoing major issue we are missing something else.

I had to try this and you appear to be correct.

Its kinda bizare i get a captcha which i cant enter without javascript but in firefox i dont get any captcha at all.

However i don’t think your solution is adequate. I don’t particularly care about this story i care about having to face a paywall every 3 times i click a link on lemmy.

Kinda sucks there are not more sites like it but i did successfully test this compromise: https://web.archive.org/web/20250226151151/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/technology/iphone-dictation-trump-racist.html

Use a archived version next time.

Clean, no ads, no silly restrictions.

Maybe i am misunderstanding but that is the country code for the united kingdom and is one of the most popular in the world

As of April 2021, it is the fifth most popular top-level domain worldwide, with over 10 million registrations.

This does include .co.uk .org.uk but the reason those exist is because you could not claim a pure .uk cTDL before 2014 because and this is an important piece of information for anyone looking to get a domain name. Countries can set the rules for their domain themselves; There have been instances (fmhy.ml) of governments revoking a registered domain, in this case because they discussed piracy.

Missed revenue opportunity by not streaming this.

This sends me on a rabbithole to discover new top level domains (.org .com .world) are added in rounds. The last one was in 2012. The next is NEXT YEAR.

Would be amazing if we could get .lemmy but it would be hella expensive. $185k for application and 25k annually to keep it. Not sure if we can crowdsource such.

Blackjackandhookers.online and .community are still available though.

Actually you are correct. I thought i had found a number for his liquid money but it wasn’t.

Also got a bit hung up on his stake in Tesla being just 13% but with Tesla being valued at ~900B thats still over ~100B of his ~320B “value”

You have my full support and i fully agree on your last point but in nuance Tesla could go bankrupt and Musks wealth will hardly make a dent. With a budget of spending a mil a day it would still take centuries to blow trough all his money.

Oof the walking back and forth thing.

I think on my job i have subconsciously trained myself to not notice who noticed i just got up, sat down, got up again. Reached my hand to something. Did not grab it. Turned back to my desk but while standing, sat down again, get back up. Walked 3 steps the other way. Walked 2 steps back to grab something from desk. Walk away fully Come back to grab the first thing. Disappears for 30 minutes to do something that actually only takes 5.

No all the people must be just as oblivious as i am and could never notice shit like this… imposter syndrome is real.

Why would a mermaid even need a bra for?

Their sexual allure to humans is part of their natural survival strategy.

Neither starfish or clamps add any support either.

Makes as much sense as a sentient peacock butterfly covering the eyes on its wings cause its shy.
