Lol, brother, you started this comment chain. You're trying to assert a position, but insisting others do the homework on providing data for said position. If said data is so stron…

Yeah, this poem deeply resonated with me. In my case it turned out that all my discontent and not fitting in was a blessing rather than a curse. Kept me untethered so when I finall…

I think your hedonic treadmill's motor is close to burning out. Might be time to hop off for a bit. edit: Ok, I have been reflecting for a bit. This article really irked me and I r…

Yeah, I just run on the road or trails to avoid areas like this. Happy to make this trade so that folks in wheelchairs etc can actually use the sidewalk, they need it more than I d…

You're welcome!

Ahh yes, the ole throw the baby out with the bathwater retort.

Why did you move away from the 3 strikes and you lose rule? The check function gives a lot less feedback, and for some of the larger puzzles, you end up trying to find a needle in …

Beautiful

I am not sure what to make of this devils advocate comment. Are you just throwing opposites at the wall? I genuinely don't know how to interpret the query about attention span? Are…

I wouldn't call this trauma dumping. It's relevant to the story. As a non parent, explaining his and his partner's experience allowed me to better appreciate the benefits of his st…

Liminal Dreaming feels a lot more evocative of the state even if the psychologists want to call it hypnagogia.

Holy projection batman. Might I suggest taking a step back and asking yourself why you were so triggered by the prior post. You made a bunch of mental leaps that are not supported …

It is well documented that Israel had heard rumblings that something was coming. A year prior, they had documentation of a plan like what unfolded on October 7th, but dismissed it …

Other good bubbles around the world: US - Trader Joes - Surprisingly good bubbles, couple different flavours but I like the plain shit. I think they use different suppliers regiona…

So, what's your proposal for dealing with Trump then? The world waits with bated breath...

I mean sure, if you just ignore the rest of my comment and take that piece in isolation, then I suppose it could further support your claim.

Did you read the encyclical? It's quite the grounded take on AI and the ethics around it.

This feels more like a the company you keep situation than social media nonsense. You happen to have a social circle that doesn't have any issues with cyclists, perhaps there are a…

Was referring to somenameforme's comment who was just stating facts. There are useful tangents, and not so useful ones. This thread seems to insist on devolving into the latter, so…

I think the dude above was just explaining the Wolf amendment origins, I don't think it was an attempt to shift blame away from Trump for the current policies or both sides it. Jus…

Is your understanding that the VPs are in the same union as the line workers? That would be... interesting. I do not believe that is the case.

Was unaware of this, upon googling, assuming this article is fairly representing his point, I think it's more nuanced than you're making it out to be. https://www.advocate.com/poli…

Hah, same. Always entertaining how people map their tendencies to the world at large.

What about those in the UK worried about their data when using AI... Perhaps they could, I dunno, relax, knowing they're using a service in their local jurisdiction? And more gener…
