This is fucking delicious. Chicken soup for my despair post election.

Scale. It’s a better quality audience but executives like BIG NUMBERS to make the juice worth the squeeze.

I think the investment supporting is worth it in the long run! Traditional social is basically a shitty rev share to reach a larger audience.

Trump wants to have a Purge so badly.

But he doesn’t want to participate, and I think he wouldn’t even really watch it from a bunker. Would probably find the violence grotesque and boring.

However, imagine the TV ratings of such an event that he made happen! That’s what really gets this guy hard.

Randos on Twitter left negative comments with little to no substantive feedback. Fire up the article!

Ha, wow. Did not picture this ‘Star of David’ patch when I read the headline.

I was trying to look up why less polar ice causes shifts in the jet stream and this article cites an active debate around our understanding on this.

The tweet does not really address that point, and makes the cause and effect sound definitive.

$20 month health insurance! They were really banking on Obamacare

I look forward to the investigation results on this one. I’m not afraid of flying but this would terrify me.

How the heck did a relatively new plane get a compromised fuselage like this??

Limited view tickets were $1500 a piece when TS came to Levi stadium. Bonkers

Years ago I worked for a company that had ads appear on Breitbart. Retargeted display, not a direct buy on the site. People would screenshot the ads and light up our Twitter complaining we were directly supporting hate speech etc, so we asked our demand partner to stop buying there to avoid negative engagement on our social. If your site gets a critical mass of negative attention brands can shut down your ability to be commercially viable, and effectively censor the content in a way.

Yeah just pure profiteering, selling receivers with legal MG serial numbers.

It’s the same BS in California. Handgun roster requires manufacturers complete ‘safety testing’ in order to certify their models approved for sale. Manufacturers largely don’t comply. Naturally, law enforcement is exempt from the same purchasing requirements.

Cops get Gen 5 Glocks while normal folks can purchase Gen 3 models. Then sell them privately to flip for profit.

Imagining a returning user who previously consented. If non essential cookies changed since their last visit, that user needs to consent again. But in scenario, just auto opt them out? I’m weirdly on the fence between this might be a reasonable block or a violation of GDPR for denying access to users who do not provide consent.

Great read. There’s 70+ million people out there choosing to vote for Trump, why? Even if the answer is complicated you can’t dismiss them all outright.

I see a decent amount of comments painting all republics with one brush. I think it’s low effort and unproductive.

I kinda felt bad when Paul Ryan said his favorite was Rage and they dissed him of course. Would stink to have your favorite band literally hate you.

Was also like bruh how are you processing these lyrics???

Shit I wouldn’t go after K pop or the Beehive either.

Sounds like there is no option to pay for the water instead. Let’s be real though, only reason the company was still there because it was free.

Nestle will probably just bottle Arrowhead with municipal water somewhere next to an interstate now.

California has a huge labor shortage. It is extraordinarily expensive to live near any major population center. Agriculture is a huge industry, but many service, hospitality industries, etc. still need and require people living near big areas where the average housing price is 500k+ (this is including 1-2 commute to achieve that price excluding our high gasoline costs)

Who the fuck can sustainably work at or near minimum wage with those costs, paying full taxes.

This is an attempt at a labor policy that keeps all tech people happy they get can go out to dinner on Tuesday night.

You summed up my questions about the situation. I do not understand the change in course late in the election.

If WaPo announced this in February, sure. It’s a little weird that news orgs officially endorse candidates.

Yeah this in between golf ball and baseball.

Beautiful graphic!

I would like to imagine a world where site advertising was reasonable. Ad blockers don’t exist, sites advertise 1 or 2 banners at $3-5 CPM and everyone gets paid and consumes content in synchrony. It won’t happen. Advertising is setup for ad blocking audiences and iOS cookieless environments. Everyone else subsidizes by viewing the myriad of placements splattered all over the page.

Yup niche communities is spot on. I’m into disc golf but most of the community news and local club updates still primarily occur on FB. This is also an extension of suburban and rural community popularity.

TO THE WALLS

Sherrifs straddle the line between law enforcement and politician, and their positions often have questionable accountability protocols.

However they are 100% subject to local, state, and federal laws if investigated and charged by any of those bodies.

There were no mass shootings in Hawaii from 2014-2022 I bet some heads will roll, but it's such a devastating incident you probably need those people to help until a proper investigation occurs to detail what really happened.

The 5 stops on Caltrain between SFO and SJC is disingenuous. Assuming starting at SFO, you need to take BART to Millbrae and then Caltrain to Santa Clara and then a bus to SJC. The whole thing would take like 1hr45min if you timed a baby bullet express train perfectly. But yeah if drove or hired a driver you could get there in 40 min depending on traffic.

We pick hundreds of lemons from our tree each year and leave them out for free on the street. I call all the takers lemon stealing whores and my wife is never amused.

I went from an 07 Escape to a 2023 RAV4. The thing just won’t shut the fuck up. Mike any kinda of parking the detection beeps. Console software is annoying.

Miss my relatively dumb car.

Remember learning about travel visas.

I got a valid U.S. Passport. What do you mean I can’t just give services money and go wherever I please?

Feel free to correct me as I see other comments saying the same thing, but I don’t believe Google wants you to spend a lot of time reviewing a specific search result.

They don’t have refreshing display or video ads where time on site really makes a difference. They want you to click on a sponsored result, which is a paid action worth way more than a viewed impression.

Widows tend to hang out closer to the ground. I wouldn’t worry much about the rafters.

Darker crevices, debris piles, larger leaning items that go undisturbed for a while.

What’s the identifier referenced in the IMDB database? Some kind of unique content id?

I think they have pictures of things that actually interest them like birds, squirrels, and food.

Conservatives would counter 10M to stay on the court and consider it a deal.

I have no idea when or if this was true but an all star format.
