It is pathetic in a way how desperate they are to prop themselves up with taxpayer funds. They know their ideas can't succeed on their own merits. They need state muscle to help coerce people to believe their myths.

I just donated to Freedom From Religion Foundation, which files lawsuits challenging attempts like this to undermine church-state separation

Yes, it has never been the best in terms of relevance or depth of index. But lately when I do searches for something like "cherry shrimp aquarium water quality requirements" I've been overwhelmed by AI-written SEO blogs. Where google still pulls up results from forums, reddit, other relevant actual humans talking.

Yes, and DDG has really been degrading over the last few months in quality of results imo.

Yep, it lives up to the best of what immersive sims set out to be. You have point A, point B, and a million ways that you can go about getting from A to B

Yes, all the little wobbles stick out and they always look dirty. And while other Teslas can look nice with a wrap, for some reason CTs with a wrap look extra plasticky

To me, Ctrl Alt Ego is not well known enough. It is an immersive sim in the style of Prey. You play as a robot roaming a station, where your Ego (like a spirit) can pass into and control all sorts of objects to solve puzzles, evade, control or kill enemies. The graphics aren't impressive (it was made by a 2-person team) but the gameplay is so interesting and the story is surprisingly compelling and funny!

If they did that, anyone could spin up an instance and start just fabricating votes and there'd be no way to know

I think part of the motive is to make brigading harder (show if users or bots are colluding to vote things up or down)

this is shitpost 5d chess.

20,000 people are playing it at a time. Not exactly a secret. The way they're testing this game is radical and newsworthy in itself. I'm glad Verge reported on it, and they don't seem mad they they were banned

LTT posted a do-over video with Stefan. He seems like a decent guy. Have followed him since then. https://youtu.be/QKzmYsySGFQ?si=AlEpsycL5ifF3RxD

It is remarkable how allergic some far-right people in America are to being called far-right. Even Richard Spencer often refers to himself as a moderate. I think it originates from their inability to understand the views of other people and place their own in context (sometimes, of course, they are just acting in bad faith, but I think there is a real undercurrent of far-right folks who just can't see their views for what they are).

It's a tease for shareholders desperate for more and more elaborate ways to squeeze a few more cents per user

Lol clearly Kamala personally approved this Lemmy meme astroturf

Everyone is well aware, but they are throwing spaghetti at the wall, hoping they can get something before the Supreme Court, which is controlled by people capable of shamelessly rationalizing any possible partisan decision, regardless of what the Constitution says.

It is a revolt for districts have to reject guidance from a superintendent en masse. That's not a normal way for an education system to be run. So it's not bullshit; you just are a bit too strict with your semantics, but that's your issue.

I have been liking Boost because it has a nice tablet app!

You should read the article. They already teach about the Bible in such contexts. This directive would require every classroom to have a copy of the Bible and find ways to integrate it into their lesson plans, whether it was relevant or not

I have to set literally everything up again on a new microSD for my Pi because the apt-get repositories no longer support the Raspbian version I'm on. I'm not mad; good for security to update, but I don't have half a day free anytime soon for it.
