Honestly, those aren’t that much crazier than thinking smoking and drinking are somehow good for you. If this goes on, it’s only a matter of time.

Definitely document. You interrupt, they’ll just remove you or make a new group chat and move on. Document and disseminate.

My city’s been changing so much as of late that I often get this feeling just going places that I haven’t seen for over 5 years. All people talk about is how much construction is happening over in the bougie part of town (most of which was farmland like 30 years ago), but damn if the rest of the city isn’t seeing redevelopment too. We’re not like a super popular or populous city either so I have no idea where all this cash is coming from

Maybe they’d do better against someone else, but c’mon. It’s GlaDOS. 10:1 odds she wins the whole thing

That’d be… nice… but no. When it come to homophobia, people hate what they don’t understand and then come up with reasons to justify it, not the other way around.

holy fuck i love fortnite I love fortnite I lo

Clearly the resident doesn’t make it easy. 100% they should anyway, put him in a temp cage or something, but still. I’m also not sure if the neighboring cage on the right is occupied or if that yellow thing is a toy, but it looks a lot cleaner

Anything that lives creates things that are toxic to itself. It’s a waste product. Or shit.

The problem isn’t our existing, not even just the scale at which we do, but the methods we choose to use to do it. I’m pretty sure we could have 8 billion people sustainably and comfortably living here, maybe even many more, but we do it by investing in solar and wind, maybe nuclear, maybe whatever isn’t burning coal and gas. And we, as a society, are simply choosing not to.

Besides, life will go on for a while without us, at least a few billion years probably. Even if some of us survive, I wonder what the trajectory is for human intelligence during a mass extinction event. Will we still be interested in the stars? Or maybe a more good natured intelligence evolves here from like octopuses or something and decides to look up. It’d be cool if a descendent of Earth could survive the Sun dying, anyway

As best I can find it’s an art installation in Wisconsin.

I know some skaters are daredevils but I think this would be too much for even them to try. You’d need a huge downhill to first get enough speed to make the loop, then you’d have to hop like 3+ feet up onto the fairly narrow tabletop at the perfect moment while already going crazy fast. Not to mention how tight the loop is (but you can’t really tell in the OP, I only saw that in the thing I linked).

Like, I’ve been watching a lot of Andy Anderson vids lately, and he’s great and all, but ain’t no way

Or perhaps all lasagnas are ssndwiches

Flour, water, salt, yeast, all checks out to me

Depends on topping orientation. Top pizza needs to be upside down to be a sandwich/calzone; if it’s right side up it’s a lasagna

missing from this retelling is the part where op shit themself in public

I mean we have flightless birds already, their vestigial wings could turn prehensile again eventually

Even then I’d say “whitewashed” more than actually being white. Many Romans would have had skin dark enough that they wouldn’t be considered white by today’s standards

i think it has more to do with what color skin people think they had and not how advanced they actually were…

It seems like it works most of the time so I don’t know why it would be inconsistent. I’ve also never seen it go bigger than -1

I dunno if he’d put Musk on there. As far as I’ve seen all they’ve done is smack talk each other, I have very little doubt that behind the scenes the world’s richest man and the most corrupt man are still buddies

It’s something to do with how Piefed interacts with Voyager. Never seen it on my Lemmy account or on the browser version of Piefed. boy do I love being immediately proven wrong, this post is currently at -1 both in Voyager and on browser https://piefed.ca/post/114465

Does it still say -1 for you? For me it’s a positive 1

God, the coverage of machine learning in general is absolutely infuriating. I sometimes listen to the BBC daily news podcast while I shower, and today they thought it was newsworthy that a soccer “AI” could predict where a penalty kicker would put the ball 52% of the time. Fifty fucking two percent. A straight up coin flip. They were acting like it was some huge achievement. They wrote that, recorded it, edited it, broadcasted it, and at no point did anyone say, “wait, this is fucking stupid, cancel this useless story.”

I need to find a different global news broadcast to listen to.

Edit, just because I felt like I was going crazy, I decided to look up the story again. The text article says it was 64% accurate, and in the opening news summary the BBC actually also said 64%, but then in the main story the number they presented was 52% (at about 16:20 in the episode titled “Israel to open humanitarian corridors into Gaza”). So I dunno, maybe that’s supposed to be some separate stat somehow, but anyway it’s still crystal clear this shit so ass
