  • What is Your Favorite Foreign Tv Series

  • Dark was great, it reminded me a bit of Stranger Things in the first season. By the second season you almost need to take notes to keep up with the story line though

  • Sahsiyet. It's like Breaking Bad, but Turkish. Really well produced and binge worthy.

  • The AI Politicians Would Like to Speak With You Now - Politicians are using AI doppelgängers to reach voters. It’s a trend that’s about to explode.

  • Yeah, that bar isn't that high really is it. Imagine if they actually kept their word!

  • and where did that bring you?

  • True but last time the banks stopped caring about them we had the global financial crisis

    Youtube’s Anti-adblock and uBlock Origin

  • Has anybody else not seen an ad yet? I'm wondering if it's because I'm using Enhancer for youtube which also has an adblocking function 🤔

  • Noticed Edge was the default browser

  • If Linux was fine, then I wouldn't have gone to the trouble of looking for an alternative and taken the time to teach myself Linux. I don't know anybody else who uses it so it's not like somebody twisted my arm

  • Phones.

    Banking apps, podcasts, gps navigation, chatting to friends, listening to music are all awesome.

    But then getting stuck doomscrolling and constantly checking my phone trying to eke out a little more stimulation when literally anything else would be a more productive way to spend my day - that part sucks ass.

  • Not to mention how much more cleaning they need compared to, say, the legs and arms.

  • What would a world where gravity is a weather condition look like?

    Jump

  • Are you assuming there's the one species who live all over the globe, like humans do? I was coming from the viewpoint that there may be related but divergent species who evolved to different gravity "climates". I think that might affect the how things turn out to some extent.

    Travel around the low gravity areas would be easier, but they would also only be limited to those areas due to piggyback weakness, whereas the people who evolved/grew up in high gravity would be able to travel the earth, so they would be the explorers, merchants and conquerors. Of course as technology advances this will all mean less and less

    I can see the low gravity areas becoming prime real estate though, like you said. Talking geologically for a second, my first guess is that these would be higher elevation as the crust isn't pulled down so much by gravity, and erode slower. Also precious metal deposits might(?) be closer to the surface too. If this is the case then this will give the low G folks to also advance in tech faster with greater access to useful metals. So if they're quick enough maybe they can defeat the 'heavy's with ingenuity.

    I didn't really come to a conclusion there did I? I just got more confused the more I thought about geopolitics..

    Jump

  • I think the people who evolved in the highest gravity regions would become like supermen and end up ruling the whole world due to their superior strength. If not, it would at least give them a significant advantage while technology is still primitive. How would they defend themselves from attack?

  • Maybe because incels are the kind of people who would call a woman a whore, instead of respecting her as a person.

  • What is something you dislike but still begrudgingly use?

    Jump

  • YES! This is my number one pet peeve. I am so fucking tired of having to install an app just to use my new e-scooter, or light bulb, or to use 100 new different functions that would work perfectly well on your website if you weren't such a fucking money grubbing troglodyte.

  • I told myself I would never install it until it became the only option for keeping in touch with a girl I like. But hey as long a that's all I use it for, they can't glean that much info from me, right? Right?

  • I moved to protonmail years ago for this reason, but then my friend gave me a free paid YouTube account so I created a new Gmail account and found a new love for heavy metal. Since then the algorithm has learnt my tastes so well I would be devastated to lose my account, but I made a pact with myself that if my friend ever decided to ditch her account that I wouldn't pay for my own. So I'm totally at the mercy of her whims, and she doesn't even know!

  • What's an amusing thing to say before going under general anesthesia?

  • Oh in that case you could ask if it's running on Windows, cos you don't want any forced updates halfway through...
