Now in damp!

It’s kind of unreal that they took something that worked perfectly well for 25 years and then fucked it up entirely overnight, for no good reason.

Stick in bike spokes meme.

Interesting. Ok, I will give it another go at some point. I had an Oculus Rift and there was a ton of promise but the tech was just not ready.

Seems dangerous, it’s a breach of the ToS I assume so they’re opening up to possible liability if Reddit got pissy. I’m actually surprised this kind of research gets IRB and other approval given you’re violating ToS unless given a variance from it (I used to conduct research on social networks and had to get preapproved accounts for the purpose, and the data I was given was carefully limited.)

Usually wise to avoid trusting the people you see in mirrors as well, never know what they’re doing when you’re not around.

Yep I’ve played with virtual monitors in VR space and I don’t even like watching movies on them, the loss in resolution and the way the dynamic aspect of it (using a moving screen to simulate a static screen) makes it a shitty solution. Eventually it’ll be good enough to watch TV in but I can’t imagine doing serious work in it.

Money addicts will risk their half trillion dollar fortune trying to save a small fraction of it

This really feels like Reddit in the first couple years. It went to shit so gradually I didn’t even notice although I can remember big events. I remember when “downvote ≠ disagree” and the place felt nicer.

Yeah nowadays Reddit has not just every sub, but every meme version of a sub, and that’s neat, but at what cost? I don’t like being on it, and I’ve been um, banned an awful lot of times lately. Not really worth it. So I will have to try to build the top few communities I am missing here, like centuryhomes.

He said at one point he’d never stop on his own accord and I think we see that playing out.

Orrr force them to continue doing nothing for forever as previously scheduled before public outrage. Now they can throw their hands up and act like they tried.

Or lay them all out diagonally and use the Pythagorean theorum

Yep my dog needs 1+ mile in the morning and at least 2 miles in the afternoon for optimal health - bowels, muscles, etc. He’s 7 now and acts like a dog half his age.

Then some of my friends are like “I try to take mine around the block at least once a week” and I am sad for their poor dog.

Hard to find good dogsitters who will actually take them on long walks too.

30. Minute. Orgasms.

My skin drastically improved once I figured this out, it hates having the top layer scraped off with a blade. Electric razor is perfect.

Iowa was improving in the 90s, improving in the 2000s. They were blue then.

Now I hate going back, it’s not the same state I grew up in. Abortion billboards and porn stores, same as the bible belt now.

The state is not improving but they don’t care anymore, long as the right people (like me) get hurt.

Look at the Atlantic interview.

“I would never, ever consider running again, I’m against it, I don’t even want to talk about it, it’s a boundary too far, stop asking.”

“However I do have people shouting in my face that I must.”

I created my account to have one ready, then when I got banned, it was easy to hop over

This would explain why I get so many attachments that are not right side up.

Let me translate this little code.

“Donald Trump has almost made it to where it the owners of this network will actually notice it in the bottom line for their quest to fulfill their endless greed.”

The gap between expected behavior and behavior is narrowing each iteration, plus people are starting to understand the limitations a bit better. The things AI does well you’re talking about are being parceled off as AI Agents for monetization and don’t require additional staff to oversee, they’re turnkey solutions.

The headline here is that AI is costing us jobs but not replacing them. And if you’re concerned that AI is a bubble, imagine what that’ll mean when it blows and these companies start faltering and being purchased. This is all mindless disruption with no foresight.
