How do you choose to compensate out of interest (asking for a friend.)

Software costs nothing to copy and paste, only to design.

The term “whale” just implies a big spender, it doesn’t exlude gambling addicts, dumb children or the fiscally irresponsable.

old lady deflation:

Their megayachts would actually become cheaper too :)

Please enlighten my unamerican ass, what Genocides did trump do on US soil in his first term? (Asked snarkily but a sincere question)

Some people are still racist

Let’s not forgot the Agnus Dei!

• Eh, ain’t ego if it’s true.

• Ok but the church uses the gold for cool hats and missions to Africa, they don’t fire it into space.

• To be fair, he also destroys people for obeying him.

• To be fair, half of those people were furries.

• Yea I got nothing.

• Dude spent T = -Inf to T = 0 not eating, mans allowed a snack

• He’ll get to it^tm

I feel like most people actually don’t care that much about Continental Boundries to give an Argument either way.

Anon is also autistic. (Genetics are a bitch)

Guardians of the Galaxy was only ten years ago mate.

(/s mostly)

As in like roleplay? Or is the information asymmetry still a thing in your brain?

cats style CGI fursuits, except now it’s kermit

You actually can’t ‘just all retool the factories’. The mining of certain materials, notably copper, becomes a limiting factor. To produce the worlds 100,000,000 motor vehicles per annum (given a generous assumption of 50kg of copper per electric vehicle) would require 5 million additional tons per year, a 20-25% increase over current figures. Meanwhile the cost of refining increases exponentially with decreasing ore grade.

Sure not every manufacturer would go out of buisness, but the industry would absolutely collapse.

I kind of disagree on ‘just as terrible’ noise/space sure, but not being able to smell the petrol is such a biggie for me.

We scrolled through the feed every couple of weeks to check what was being served up.

This is a critical flaw in the studies methodology. ‘loiter time’ is a metric used by algorithms to serve up new content, if the researchers where checking each post for signs of misogyny, then they were probably skipping by totally innocucus stuff whilst paying attention to misogyny. This (being the only feedback given) will have shown the researchers what they wanted to see.

Three months later, The Office, Star Wars, and now The Boys memes continue to punctuate the feed, now interspersed with highly sexist and misogynistic images that have have appeared in the feed without any input from the user.

It’d be good to know the actual ratios, given this was a guardian study there’s no reason to withhold data, nor a secondary source I can go and find the data. It’s possible that Facebook is simply serving up the entire spectrum of posts proportionately to their activity on the internet, or even favouring anti-sexist posts that are just not noticed/mentioned by the guardian.

Does anyone genuinely believe banning this sorta stuff is going to “end violence against women and children in one generation”?

I think you have excessive confidence in the cyber security of old institutions.

But also: Is this not NCD? I absolutely want tech-bros running the MIC. I want the next generation of supercarriers to be the Starship to Gerald R. Fords, SLS we are NATO, we can sacrafice a little bit of short-term military readiness in exchange for doing cool shit again.
