Isn't a bird with no i's just a brd?

Not to be that person buuut...you should really report this. Someone could die.

Aw come on now, we can't be holding our public servants to account for their actions now can we? You silly billy

I'm guessing your understanding skipped the part about the PageRank system

Yeah it's a monopoly now, but back then it was a couple of Stanford kids with a good idea on how to make search engines suck less by ranking web pages. And it worked.

But as always, with great power...

As an added bonus: if I recall correctly (which I may not, it was a while ago now), the hilarious thing is that despite its success, the original PageRank system was based on flawed maths :D

This seems...unlawful...

Edit - for anyone who actually knows stuff about things, is it?

"They treat everyone the same way, but I'm special so I should get special treatment!"

Shame there isn't an "I'm 12 and this is deep" sub for idiotic posts like this.

This is exactly what happened and nothing can persuade me otherwise. They got a newer, better car!

I say we all celebrate this guy's birthday as our Lemmy tradition

Do you have any kind of source for your claim that synthesised aviation fuel doesn't pollute? That's certainly a new one on me, especially considering the companies that sell it don't even make that claim themselves.

Less polluting /= not polluting.

I have to travel a lot for my job. Every. Single. Time. I've had the misfortune of needing to go to the States, my luggage has been stolen from in transit. Cash (learned that lesson), electronics, once it was dirty underwear?! Going to Russia? Fine. Laos? Grand. Cambodia? No bother. America? Nah mate, this is a communist country apparently, your property is our property! Gimmie gimmie gimmie!

Fuck the TSA, and fuck the complacency of the lazy ass populace who allow this corruption to run rampant, while still praising how great their freedumbs are.

You know what really grinds my gears?

Entitlement.

1. Why is this in Mildly Infuriating?
2. Why is this NSFW?
3. Why?

Well that's the solution: the current will wash all the plastic away, problem solved!

A vinyl record

Really baffled why this sub is being chosen by people for unrelated posts. Yeah you use soap in the shower, but that doesn't mean showerthoughts is the place to get out your soap box for a sermon

The fact that they're asking for the information in order to compare against for identity verification should tell you that they already have the information.

If you were a fraction as savvy as you seem to think you are, you'd know that deleting your PII from your profile did absolutely nothing in terms of removing it from their systems. Right now you're whingeing about how upset you are about having to give them a phone number... that they already have.

This would only be discussion-worthy if you had actually removed the information and they were demanding it back. You didn't and they're not, they're verifying the information you gave them to prove your identity using industry standard methods. If it wasn't for the fact these are getting posted during school hours I'd assume you're some edgelord teenager...

That's not because of the number of bugs, it's because your newer car has better aerodynamics than your 20/30 year old one.

Looks to me more like escarstopped

His character also forgot fuses exist and that you can't kill yourself with a toaster in a bath

Shame having your own mail server didn't teach you the difference between emails and text messages.

I was at the Cleveland Institute of Art too! I thought the exhibit on 9/11 was a bit tasteless but maybe I just didn't get the assignment.

it won’t install the OS without making you create a Microsoft account

I'm not pro-Windows by any means, but this simply isn't true.

Until this comment I thought the Christmas tree was the problem and now I feel like an idiot.

AA it is!

Ding ding ding

With the price of energy just now, I'd be glad for a lump of coal for Christmas

and it creates Lil Lisa fish slurry, for all your animal feed needs!

elemental particles in our body (electrons, quarks, …)

I don't think you know what either elements or particles are...

The same with, as we call them here, regular muffins.

YouTube ad revenue is a pittance. If you want to actually support creators, send them money directly.

With all that dancing you'll be out of breath, huffin and puffin

Sounds hard

They have better had a good reason

Microsoft customer support: "Yes this is normal and expected behaviour. Bing is working as intended, issue is with customer. Ticket closed."

We have a winner!

The additional cat is actually firmly entrenched in the computer chair in the background. So I get the sofa :(

Try not to judge the whole community for idiotic posts like these. There are always going to be dumb kids shouting dumb shit wherever you go, sometimes you've just gotta roll your eyes and keep on walking (or scrolling I guess) leaving the folly far behind.

I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. :D

Yeah actually, stuff what I said - you're totally right.

If you can get access to 4oD, say with a VPN, there are episodes of Grand Designs where people refurbish castles.
