I would like to pitch the idea that the obesity epidemic is a symptom of failed city infrastructure. Imagine if riding a bike was a no-friction activity; you walk out your door, you have a bike there and the bike lanes are treated as first-class infra instead of cars. Imagine how much more you would bike in this situation, and how much healthier you and everyone around you would be

Impressive, he’s still going

They do, tho. It’s community notes. If multiple people agree on a correction, especially if those people usually disagree with eachother, it becomes the note

• The bar is your local law
• Websites can permanently store your ID
• You’re dumb

SCMP is critical of China, but they do soften the blow

Another way to think about this: Why should you have to give random companies your ID because Australian teens need to prove their age?

Um did you reply to the right comment?

I think it might help if you advertise it more too. I haven’t heard of mbin in months and partially assumed it stopped existing

What about WhatsApp?

What about Instagram?

Also does your Lemmy instance federate with Threads?

Eh. The advertisers will be back to supporting LGBTQ whenever that month of year comes back

They are Streisanding this shit

True

it will backfire

False

I’ve recently been on YCombinator’s co-founder matching service (for people looking to create a startup). It’s taught me SO much about writing good emails.

Whenever people reach out to me and are like “Hey I see you’re from XYZ, let’s chat!” I instantly reject the invite. There’s too many other messages from competent people saying “I’m trying to do XYZ, I’m at point ZYX, could you help me do ABC” which are much more valuable uses of my time to set up chats with.

Live too long and become a villain

Oh, thank God. I was worried he might be talking about white people haha

Wow, they also changed the title lmao. I posted it with the same title as the article

Just like Brian Thompson yahooooooooo

I cross posted this to Hacker News (which is very pro-CEO and big corpo) and it’s now rank 1 on the front page, lmao. People really support this guy

(And it’s funny because in the comments, people are seething “Nooooo he’s not popular, look at these polls that show he has 13% approval!!”)

What virtue signal. These don’t have fact-checking either lmao

As an ex-Andrpid dev, all this optimization is what killed the creativity. Every feature you currently have is hyperoptimized (even with dedicated battery optimizations turned off for the most popular apps), and as a result nothing you can’t easily change is changeable anymore.

Want a widget that self updates every couple minutes by connecting to the internet? Can’t have that, even if the user explicitly accepts it. Want to customize behavior of things in the settings? Nope. Want to hook into the phone memory and do crazy hacks? Not even with root. Want to keep running some checks to determine when to send a notification? Can’t do that either, non-push notifications are all scheduled in advance.
