And Lina Khan is in NYC now!

Love it, yes, a folding orb that folds up into fourth dimensional space.

Honestly I think the real takeaway is how much media was already just slop used to sell ads to begin with.

I love em, rounder the better I say, give me a phone with the profile of a hot dog bun. Better yet a circle. Yeah I want a folding phone where it’s a circle and it expands from the center into a bigger circle.

Same honestly I look back at my younger self and I’m embarrassed. I think most of the debunking stuff out there just focuses on the “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams” meme.

How did WTC7 burn and collapse when the only thing that hit it that day was a massive skyscraper? 🤔

Not sure maybe

correct!

more often than a paramecium so yeah id say doing pretty good

humans: let’s evolve to be really good at predicting. let’s just evolve the ability to OBSESS over anything but present in the moment

Appropriate franchise considering it’s where Google got the “Nexus” name.

My friend told me recently about TizenTube which is a youtube app with adblock/sponsorblock for Samsung TVs

Depends on what “percentage of Lemmy” means, but they have probably something like 20% of active users. Most of their communities have analogues elsewhere.

I do think that as Lemmy grows the idea of a “general purpose instance” will go away and online communities will form their own instances.

I loved this episode, it was really funny to hear “normal” people navigating getting an instance up and running, but they did without too much trouble. They also have 7K monthly active users since creating it, which is a great infusion of fresh blood to the fediverse.

I recently tried asking Amazon’s AI a simple question about a product that had hundreds of reviews. It was a cheap thing, and I admit I was too lazy to verify the info so I went with what the AI said and bought it, and guess what the AI was just completely wrong and now Amazon is paying for me to ship it back.

Bazzite is good for noobs looking for a gaming option because it’s “immutable” which means the OS filesystem can’t be edited, which makes it nearly impossible to break.

Mint is still very noob friendly, just not immutable. Both are solid options because neither one requires any command line to get it on-par with Windows.

I am trying out Kinoite now but it’s very similar. I think the immutable distros are best for people who want a “Just works” experience to start with.

Every. Single. Time.
