Looks like a big doggy bat. Cute!

What they want is stories jerking off their egos for "changing the world", which in reality equates to them burning through start-ups, capital, and public resources to benefit their own personal wealth at the expense of everyone else. The stupid fucks can't even realize that Black Mirror is about them. They ruined the future and I'll never forgive them for it.

What a stupid fucking idea for a contest. "Press a button until something interesting pops out. Best button pusher wins." Glad it got subverted like that.

Article about a crypto kids show obviously generated on an llm. The future sucks.

Fallen into several arguments in Lemmy about exactly that. People give it way too much credence to what is functionally a eugenicist's nightmare. I have no hard feelings at Mike Judge or even the movie really, but it's fiction, not a warning from the future. Honestly, people need to stop treating fiction as documentary evidence in general. At best it's interesting thought experiments, not something one should base their world view on.

Once had a discussion with some coworkers that legit didn't know the original cut had no Jabba. They were so certain that they actually almost had me convinced for a moment.

Hot air expands and cold air contracts. You want the air in the bowl to be hot so it's not creating negative pressure.

Wait...that thing shoots lasers?? I thought it was like, a boomerang or something.

Got this on newpipe for a bit earlier today (failure to load, not a demand to sign in), but it started working again a few hours later.

What a bizarre list of things to get hung up on that have no consequence. Speech doesn't have to be precisely literal at every moment. Loosen up a bit, mate.

No offense taken by me, no worries. Quebec is a very French province of Canada, so not being allowed to say "French fries" felt fitting, hah.

I've apparently offended the entire territory of Quebec with my question, so maybe that's appropriate XD
