UndulyUnruly

TLDR, less nuanced:

Several meta-analyses and systematic reviews converge on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and the roll-out of social media globally. Moreover, findings from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study, the largest long-term study of adolescent brain development in the United States, has found no evidence of drastic changes associated with digital-technology use. Haidt, a social psychologist at New York University, is a gifted storyteller, but his tale is currently one searching for evidence.

You got your answers before, you just don’t want to accept them. The relationship between budget and performance expectation still borders delusion.

To quote u/Peachman who hit the nail on the head:

Looking for recommendations for a racecar, at least 800 horsepower. Needs to hit 60 mph in under 4 seconds. My budget is $2000. Please give recommendations. LOL

Fork out more money or lower your expectation.

Many businesses already offer a call-back function where the next available agent just calls you. I’m tired of big tech shoehorning itself into every nook and cranny of life.

The AI predicted your intent and TRIPLEBANNED you prophylacticly.

That smell. I recognise that smell. It’s the smell of pants on fire.

Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

Witchcraft!! They’re speaking in tongues, get them!!

Commodore gang assemble!

Love the Archie comeback, but fuck arstechnica and their fucked up site format. They literally call themselves the „Art of Technology“ and can’t even get their website properly formatted for mobile. Pathetic.

Outstanding!

Understandable. Have a good day.

I‘m really grateful for your and your colleagues‘ work. Thank you for letting us lemmy around here!!!

“Have you tried turning it off and on again 15 times?”

Opioids have been linked to about 800,000 deaths in the U.S. since 1999, including more than 80,000 annually in recent years, with most of those involving illicitly produced fentanyl.

Aside from the argument re the appropriate use case to remedy the societal impacts, which are de facto unquantifiable, the ~$44bn settlements the article refers to juxtaposed with deaths caused by opioids equates to a mere $55000 per casualty.

PEANUTS. The figure is below the US national average income in Q3 2023, i.e $59,384.

The debt to the victims, survivors and humanity is unpayable.

Cutting Edge Engineering.

Kurtis is a dry-as-a-rabbit-fart humoured Aussie bloke with absolutely incredible skills on metal working machines like lathes, boring machines, welding equipment. Super interesting how he repairs stuff. The channel has grown so much it’s getting borderline re niche.

He repairs heavy duty equipment and engineers incredible solution for his customers often improving the original parts so it can repaired next time for cheaper.

His partner shoots and edits the videos. They also have a cool shop dog (shoutout to Homeless).

Belegt nachhaltig den Gaumen nach physischer Anstrengung. Spitze!

Pop up: “We and our 692 partners…”

Goodbye!

Madness!

The wave forms of 6G will physically break the ankles of birds in flight and neuter your dog through the roof of the house. Yoghurt will never taste the same and your feet will go up two sizes forcing you to buy new shoes. The writing is clearly on the wall.

Shark porn.

You will own nothing but make us happy by paying us more for less in your privileged lives of enshitified dependency. Please note that you‘ll all be punished anyway. Toodles!

Well, yes it works: https://proton.me/support/creating-aliases

I think this is the dude who stole our lawnmower!!

X gonna give it to ya

Surely there wouldn’t be any listening devices baked in.

You want a toe? I can get ya a toe. Believe me, there are ways dude, you don’t even wanna know about ‘em, believe me. Hell, I can get ya a toe by three o’clock this afternoon, with nail polish.

Pft. Can’t even spell they’re. Figure it out.

Then you run into a full-blown narcissist and they will mistake your openness for weakness and start to weaponise it against you. Ask me how I know this.

There’s a power setting akin to “always on” that allows the console to wake up and install updates as they become available. It increases power consumption substantially. If you don’t want this you need to turn it off, I think it is on by default. You can find it in settings.

I N T E R R O B A N G!!!

Geez, this dude.

Yes.

DING DONG

“Hello, who is it?”

“blob. The witch is dead. blop blop.”
[faint fish giggles]

“Every fucking time man.”

NO, BETTER SWAP THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION!

Imagine you drive this beauty to work, crossing a junction and someone running a red t-bones you, totalling the car. I think I’d go apoplectic.

Nein!
