  • No thank you, AITA is a toxic guilty pleasure, that I want to seek out actively if I'm in the mood for it, not see it on my feed regularly. It is the worst kind of form social media can take. If I see it anywhere on the fediverse, I'd immediately block it.

  • Lol

  • Actually the old Moderna was having such a harsh reaction on younger people, Germany changed their recommendations to not allow anyone younger than 60 to get moderna.

    I also had Moderna back then once and can only confirm, it knocked me completely out for a whole day with harsh fever like symptoms, really wasn't fun.

    Haven't really been vaccinated for a year now, so can't talk about the new moderna.

  • finally a decent use of this dumbass meme format.

    I hate how the majority of the time this is used, it can be summed up with "girls boring, boys fun haha".
    Thought we left that sorta thinking behind in elementary school?
    Anyway, fuck gender stereotypes, we're all just humans trying to wing it.

  • welp, hope they can sort everything out and find a workload that the production team can handle.
    I'm surprised this anime has such big production issues, because it actually started out with an extremely polished episode 1.
    But in the most recent episode, even I saw some production problems (shizukas shirt around her neck having the wrong color for a few moments)

  • Yooooo I am hyped!!!

    I already read the webnovel a few months ago, but I'm always eager to see how well the anime translates the story.

  • Nah, Discord is already a way into the enshittifation process. Back when it first got popular, people ditched skype to migrate to discord en masse, because discord was lightweight and quick as fuck and had 0 ads.

    Nothing about this software nowadays gives me the feeling of being quick.

  • Hot take time?

    The Office.

    I enjoyed the first few seasons immensely, but at some point the characters felt off to me. It's been a while since I watched it, so I can't pinpoint when exactly it started to change anymore.

  • Yea, they are useless when being changed at will, but what if the TOS specifically said "You can disregard future TOS versions and still abide by this old one under certain circumstances" ?
    You would still be complying with the Terms of Service, by not honoring the new Terms of Service.

    Obviously, this is still a terrible situation regardless, but I am thinking about if the old TOS won't give already released games a way out of this BS, or even better, may keep a usable Unity version alive for the future. Long term obviously, as many people as possible should ditch unity entirely, but for right now, it looks like a lot of developers will have big trouble starting in just 3 months.

  • I think the worst part of it all is the trust that is irrevocably broken now.
    This is obviously a moronic scummy decision driven by greed, but it also goes directly against past decisions. As per this reddit post, Unity actually had a TOS in action that protected Developers against retroactive changes like this. Specifically, it stated that you could choose to continue using old versions of the engine and comply to the old TOS if an update to the TOS that you disagree with ever happened. This specific part of the TOS was deleted last year.

    If they actually try to enforce this new crap on already released games (that accepted an older version of the TOS) then it would seem blatantly illegal (I'm not a lawyer though).

    Even if they revert everything by tomorrow, the whole fiasco still shows where Unity's current interests are, and make the company a liability to deal with for any game developer.

  • Genuinely excited for this!
    The anime was a slow start, but somehow all the characters gradually became interesting and I found myself enjoying the plot a lot.

  • Even the characters are saying that our main duo overcomplicates things now. They're self aware! :D

  • Man I really hope the animation is gonna be superb. I read the entire manwha recently and I don't think the story or characters was actually all that great. It was mostly the amazing art and how it was used that got me interested.

  • Agreed, this is basically nonsense.
    How does it have 500 upvotes? O.o

  • Thanks, I never used an Apple Product, so I didn't have the contextual infromation!
    To me it sounded like a binary state (on/off), as I know it from most phones I've seen.

  • Which humans are you blaming exactly?

    I don't think it's fair to blame the users. They toggle bluetooth off and think it's off. How are they supposed to know "Bluetooth Off" means "Only some amount of Bluetooth is off"?
    And I don't think designing a convincing phishing device is that much of a leap in logic. Bluetooth is off, so maybe the notification is legit from apple and needs authority for a connection?

    If you blame the designers who left a backdoor in the bluetooth, then yea that's fair.

  • It's a green text from 4chan.
    Don't go there yourself, it's a bad place. Just wait for the funny fake stories to make their way over here, that way you filter out the worst offenders.

  • I don't like the way this question is framed. It implies that IQ is a meaningful indicator of intelligence as well as that intelligence can be generalized and measured accurately. In truth, it can't.

    While there exists a certain correlation between measured IQ and academic success, these things can always explained via different factors as well, for instance the amount care that your parents put into how well you do academicallg early on in life, shaping your values, beliefs and personality. Someone whose parents put effort into making sure they did well at school will probably also care more for taking such an IQ test seriously as well as have academic success. Do note, that there is only little correlation between IQ and later levels of income in their line of work.

    To go back to the actual question, you cope with it by realizing that intelligence is a diverse and complex concept, where different people do well on different things. While you might certainly have a domain where you are objectively "better" at than someone else (measured in some way), this does not mean you are objectively better at every domain. By realizing these personal strengths and personal weaknesses we can overcome them by working in a field where we are best at and learn from others at fields they are better at in order to become a better person all around.

    Humble yourself and never forget that your own personal experience shouldn't be the gold standard for everyone else. They have their own values and beliefs backed up by their own experience.

  • It IS kinda crazy. If you try to create "nothingness" (create an enclosed space and suck out all of the air to have as little as possible), the nothingness actually tries to become full of something again, because of pressure difference.
