Okay, I think I saw this somewhere but I didn't really read further into it

Right, I see your point. I also wonder sometimes if the excess of social media consumption and the battle to gobble more eye balls has somehow influenced people making them more susceptible to manipulation via charisma and populist opinions, I'm not sure how different it is nowadays than a couple of decades back. I might be wrong about this anyways

Wait, which gamble? I'm not well informed on what's going on over there

What are the reasons for this? I'm out of the france loop

Many thanks!! I'm just trying to make a silly script to plot how often I comment on lemmy over time :)

Thank you so much!!!

I think if it was up to them, and latency was low enough, they probably would have pushed some kind of "fully remote convertible laptop" where they literally own everything you do in a cloud, I don't even want to search if this is a thing that exist already

Why is this on shitpost? I think it's a perfectly valid hobby and it should be celebrated

I didn't know this, damn, that's moving a lot of troops across a length of ~8.000 km in rail

Yeah, I don't think numbers is everything, lacking experience or leadership can tip the balance against you in a blink

Does north korea have actually good military power? I've seen their parades here and there, but does anyone know if they have updated equipment, trained military personnel, good intelligence, etc?

I've said this before, but we also need to be cautious about this on lemmy and devise ways to empower mods and the community to fight back against this, I'm not entirely sure how since it's a very complex problem

Why do they struggle so much with some "obvious things" sometimes ? We wouldn't have a type-C iphone if the EU didn't pressured them to do make the switch

Damn, that's a very elegant way to put it

Left side: Black mirror S01E02 "fifteen million merits" . A guy tries to "break the system" but this backfires and his critic that was supposed to change people's minds is absorbed by it and turned into an entertainment product. The upper-left image shows the moment in the episode where he criticizes the system threatening to kill himself while the bottom one shows the final image of the episode where he how lives in an expensive suite

Right side: "Being ugly : My Experience" A youtube video of a guy explaining how his unattractiveness has biased his life and brought unhappiness upon him. A reason why this became viral, besides the obvious connection by many due to the topic was that a girl commented that she found the guy of the video very cute and they actually became a couple

The meme: It compares both cases implying that the guy on the right was breaking the system but that his cause was "silenced" by providing him a girlfriend and turning him into a channel that lectures people on having hope about the prospect of finding a suitable partner

I have memories of literally asking this to my dad when I was a child and he telling me that they would never ever make more star wars movies

The closest to this I can remember rn was the movie oblivion, where humans used masks to distort their voice? Not sure about the logic behind that, pretty sweet visuals tho, the UI design was sick

Eehrm, acktually, the tweet is wrong 🤓

You can always be getting a result above average in a series of numbers as long as the nth number is significantly greater than the previous ones. For example, f(x) = x^2 would always be above average for every next number

I was going to say this, their new architecture seems to be better than previous ones, they have more compute and I'm guessing, more data. The only explanation for this downgrade is that they tried to ban porn. I haven't read online info about this at the time anyways, I'm just learning this recently
