Go further. For example, people say ‘gypped’ without knowing it’s a pejorative reference to the word ‘Gypsy’ which is itself a pejorative of the Romani.

What are you doing with that finger? Not joking.

Does your mom have both hands and if so do they reasonably function?

db2 ,

Have you considered Google Assistant or Bixby so she can do things like that by voice command?

None of the guys are actually smiling…

He’s probably just struggling against her trying to unbalance them both.

No, but clearly griefing did.

I don’t want this any more than I wanted apps piled on to my home screen.

Is "food" a social construct?

Hear me out. There’s nothing innate to an object that makes it “food”. It’s an attribute we give to certain things that meet certain qualities, i.e. being digestible, nutritious, perhaps tasty or satisfying in some way, etc. We could really ingest just about anything, but we call the stuff that’s edible “food”....

This isn’t a shower thought, it’s embarrassing to even read.

Poor Wells Fargo. Maybe they should sign a bunch of customers up to loans they didn’t ask for about it to feel better.

I’m still trying to wrap my head around suffering watching a Lifetime movie in purpose tbh… but yeah, their plots are unintentionally farcical every time.

e: suffering=someone but it still works so I’ll leave it

Next week it will be powered by the complete works of Shakespeare and three old banana peels.

Sausage, eggs, hash brown, toast, oj, tip the last dollar (most likely).

When you’re rich they let you do it. /s

I’d totally watch that movie.

Bitcoin doesn’t move like the stock market. There’s no hedge funds to call to naked short a nonexistent Bitcoin Inc in to the dirt. This means nothing.

That said I’d live bitcoin to go to a penny. I’d buy and hodl. I’d buy and hodl hard.

That said, fuck Trump. But not literally because his lineage should be pruned.

He’s an abuser. He’s going to abuse people at any chance. The money is entirely irrelevant.

Also from reddit, with zero irony:

Kudos to Stablility AI for releasing ANOTHER excellent model for FREE.

When you cross the street put your first step just over the crosswalk paint. Watch out for cops though, they’ll shoot!

Don’t you not want to send me the balance of your bank account? No means yes and yes means yes.

Capitalism is essentially alive

I think capitalism can be understood as a living entity, a being composed of billions of smaller beings (people), essentially cells. It evolves (legally and through market innovations), has an immune response (police), and grows and reproduces itself (imperialism). The cells are independent life in their own right, but they...

And like Quell says, rip open the diseased heart of a corporation and what spills out? People.

Because they can’t patent it and troll everyone else for money.

App Store Patents

“Apple denies that, based on their common meaning, the words ‘app store’ together denote a store for apps”

Actual quote from a legal filing by Apple in 2011. It’s about copyright but the effect and intent is the same. They wanted Amazon to not use the term “app store”.

Now I’m glad I didn’t get plugged in to their ecosystem.

db2 ,

Useless.

db2 ,

The only benefit this has is to those who will upcharge to use it. It’s pointless crap nobody asked for.

We’re ^calling^ about your cars ^extended^ ^warranty^

Lovely paywall. Super interesting.

OP: I’m good, how are you?

db2 ,

Higher video qualities like 8k or 16k might require better hardware

There’s no money in it, it won’t happen. Not in consumer space anyway.

Since you posted this here I’m gonna go ahead and suggest glow in the dark cock rings.

I hate it when other people feel like the planet Jupiter.

You need to be taking better showers.

This Hacker Tool Extracts All the Data Collected by Windows’ New Recall AI (www.wired.com)

When Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella revealed the new Windows AI tool that can answer questions about your web browsing and laptop use, he said one of the “magical” things about it was that the data doesn’t leave your laptop; the Windows Recall system takes screenshots of your activity every five seconds and saves them on the...

Political mud slinging is obnoxious, but nothing in it is wrong. 🤷 Trumplicans should probably stop crying in to their shitty beer and grow up.

Nothing says time has to go the direction we perceive it. It could go backwards and without a different frame of reference it would just be normal.
