Yeah I wish Vivaldi wasn't Chromium-based, because I love all the bells and whistles of Vivaldi so much. But like, at the end of the day it's still partly contributing to the Chromium dominance of the web, so I still have to default to Firefox as my primary.
I'm aware, but I do it to ensure readers that the content of my message hasn't changed in the time since the edit, I'm just cleaning up the syntax. It's a matter of attempting to provide a consistent face.
I mean, I think part of it is because they grew up interacting with apps because parents were, mostly rightly, restricting their children from use of the greater unrestricted web. Every modern parent I know had children who knew which apps on mommy or daddy's phone they were allowed to touch - their games or youtube kids or whatever. These apps provided easy safeguards for parents to rein in their child's internet experience. Even if these methods weren't perfect in their attempt (Elsagate and all that), this was still good practice for allowing your child access to modernity in the times you couldn't fully devote your time to overseeing their activity with relative confidence they were probably not watching wildly inappropriate content.
In a perfect world parents and educators would also be devoting time to teaching their child to navigate the internet and allowing them monitored (with physical eyeballs, not tracking) online browsing time, but I don't think we can rightly fault the kids for not having received that. Rather than grumbling about the situation, I think we'd be better served accepting it for what it is and instead approaching the topic from a stance of: how do we teach them better behavior and help them unlearn these bad habits?
I see your point and don't entirely disagree, I'll just its hard to feel bad about somebody suffering the consequences of their own actions (not the miscarriage obviously, but the reaction to it).
You don't really get to complain about feeling alone when you're the one that burned all the bridges that lead to your house, imo.
I have never had a single conversation with any person wearing one of those wide-brim white girl hats which has made me desire to have a second conversation.
In some ways I appreciate that they've found an accessory to broadcast their narcissistic tendencies to others.
None of which makes sense without the context of what a enormous jackass Buckley had famously been in online spaces for YEARS. It's not just that loss was a weirdly serious addition to a silly comic, it's that it perfectly encapsulated the kind of sanctimonious self-important attitude Buckley espoused and instantly turned his shitty online persona into a joke.
I don't know if it is genuinely possible to still appreciate loss the way it was without all of the enormity of that context.
There was just an advertisement for colostrum on one of the recent episodes of the Philip DeFranco show.
If anyone doesn't know colostrum is like "early milk," the immediately precursor to breast milk in lactation.
They're trying to sterilize the concept here, but yeah breast milk is actually a thing in the bodybuilding and supplement community: ARMA is one of the biggest brands, I believe, if you want to look the stuff up yourself.
But we don't start that way. If we kept drinking breast milk since infancy, we'd maintain our ability to digest it just fine. It's a "use it or lose it" situation.
There's something to this. Not only did MTV stop playing videos, but shows like The Real World and Road Rules are the direct precursors to the reality TV movement that gave us things like Survivor and the Kardashians.
Real talk, the switch away from playing music videos actually legitimately impacted culture profoundly
Facts. We have a burger place like this that people love for some reason, but I swear they most the mid-quality burgers for $20+. It's crazy that people keep going there, imo.
This is literally the perfect Trump+AI joke. Kudos to you
