ESPN is probably paying cable companies to air their shows over their cables to customers with a subscription to ESPN.


I’m just here wondering who out there wouldn’t want to be able to call the emergency line.

It shouldn’t be a separate fee, but rather incorporated into the tax that pays for all the emergency services anyway.


Paying every fee is even harder.

So let’s stop doing that as well.


The musical episode was cringey, I agree. But I had to sit through it.

But the Klingons rapping was actually one of the highlights of that episode.


If you got reminded of some old bad teenage image all the time, with a phrase that tells you to shut up, you would too.



They are working on mitigating the unpredictable “black box”.

Like making the AI explain their working method step by step. Not only does it make the AI more transparent, it also increases the correctness of whatever it types.

AI is still in development. It is good to list the problems you have, but don’t think those problems won’t be solved in the future.


Is that the AI’s fault, or the depressed and suicidal human’s fault?

Do you not think that the person would have committed suicide whether they asked the AI or not? The AI might have sped up the decision, but it is the human who made it.

It is not like the AI is out there trying to convince non-depressed humans to become depressed in order they go kill themselves …


Especially in the Netherlands, better to have those escooters than to have actual scooters which make tons of noise and blow exhaust fumes to any biker that drives behind them.


Majority of people do in Europe.

Because it is better to also know how to drive manual, than to only know how to drive automatic.


About 60% cases of violence where the police has to intervene have to do with alcohol.

The thing is that drinking it looks innocent, since you have to drink (water) in order to stay alive. But alcohol is literal poison.


Communism is as much of a fairy tale as the Free Market.

For exactly the same reasons.

Almost like we better pick something … in the middle, like heavily regulated capitalism and social democracy.


Allowing to block public traffic just so you can perform you hobby.

Looking at you cycling races like the Tour de France.


Seriously.

Marketing is nothing more than convincing people to buy stuff they do not need.

It is the reason we live in a consumer culture that is fucking up the planet with useless trash.


I hate corporations having power over me, but I don’t mind governments.

Why? Because I get to vote on who is in those governments. I don’t have any input in those corporations.

And corporations only care about profit, with government you can at least sometimes have one that cares about the population.

If we let corporations do their thing, they would bring back slavery since that is much more profitable than paying someone even minimum wage.

Corporations would sell their own mother if they saw it as profitable.


Correction: fake free speech absolutionism of Musk where he gets to decide who gets censored for their opinion is very popular with dumb dumbs.


Since it is Musk that manages the “Internet’s public square”, it isn’t a public square at all.


The evidence is there, if you’d care to look.

Plenty of posts with damning information on here.


If Microsoft is any good, they will buy like 10 WinRar licenses so the owner can go on an early retirement!


It was usually split into chunks because the upload websites only allowed files of certain sizes. Like 100MB or something.
