Everyone that watches Love Island and won’t shut up about it are now transparent

So the UN?

I’m definitely going to raise my kid on older games (maybe not the Atari 2600 per se, but same idea). Newer games don’t teach you how to think or persevere, but adjust feed your dopamine receptors so you’ll keep buying the next game.

Look at Pokémon. Green / Red / Yellow: tough as shit. Grinded my Pokémon so they’d level up so I could beat the gym boss; and learned that some strategies were better or worse against various problems - ie. certain types of Pokémon were better against other types. Now? You can walk into a gym with a level 3 Magikarp and win the game.

There are some exceptions like Dark Souls / Elden Ring, bbuutt the general trend for the industry is to make the games trivial, flashy lights, and include day 1 DLC for all that mmoonneeeyyy

Hunger is a pretty powerful motivator, so I’m sure people will find a way

If it were a 2, I think the left side of the 2 may have been cut off

Very crude markup:

• Green: The dots I think were included
• Red: The dots I’m assuming you’re referring to (in which case I would agree with you)
• Blue: Showing the (extremely rough) alignment. Based on the 7, there’s a max of 5 dots across for a given character. Indicating there is a potential row on the left that may either be the actual left side of the character (in which case it would be red and you would be right), or it’s also a misprint (which then it ccoouulldd be green)

2 or 5. If I had to guess, it would be 2

1: no 2: Possibly 3: no 4: no - no examples, but I don’t think any format would have the 2 dots at the bottom left corner 5: Possibly - no examples though 6: no 7: No 8: no 9: No - no examples, but same reason as 4

No idea what Pvz2 is

DLC on launch? lol no

The problem is that it’s believable at this point

No plz. Don’t give them more ideas…

Some law firms will offer free initial consultations. Ask around, see what some may offer

This is why I’m not going to buy RAM / Dodge / Chrysler/ Jeep / anything Stellantis owns, and this is why I’m not buying any new car with “smart” / “built-in” junk.

I don’t know of any car that has an actually good head unit. Its either garbage because its a giant touch screen, making it super difficult to navigate without looking (that’s why all the controls in an airplane are different shapes and sizes), or its just a hub for you to run Android Auto / apples equivalent.

Now ads? Ffs…

Good job Mr president. Now you’ve helped Russia with a few things.

1. If they know where the sub’s are, they now know if you lie or tell the truth about the sub’s.
2. If they didn’t know where the sub’s are, they now know where they probably weren’t, and where they may be going
3. In either case, they know you’ve fucked with their patrol routes, which may give them yet another advantage with finding them; or seeing how you influence their routes

They’re already making suggestions. Got one this morning telling me I can ask it for updates on Amazon packages.

Speaking of which, anyone have any suggestions for better smart speakers?

I work in the education space and my biggest worry is the next generation losing the ability to critically think.

Just like how Gen X is much better at mental math than Millennials because the invention of pocket calculators / calculators on phones made math trivial; I think AI is going to trivialize critical thinking. We (as a Millennial) still had to hunt for a correct answer to our problems, which forced us to question possible answers we found and used our critical thinking skills to determine if it was a valid answer or not. With AI though, you type in your question and it’ll spit out an answer. For easy questions - it’s great. But for anything a little more nuanced, it struggles still. So if we don’t develop our critical thinking skills on easy questions, I wonder how we’ll do on the harder questions

Is PipePipe still working for you? I’ve been having issues with yt-dlp since YT released an update a few months ago

What’s the difference between Lemmy and Piefed?

Nvm. Found exactly what I was looking for here

Alarms for the deaf come with bed shakers / vibrators. You just chuck a little puck under your pillow / mattress and it definitely wakes you

What did you just call me??
