Now that’s just uncalled for.

decivex , to til in TIL that some people do not have an inner voice and think in different nonverbal ways.

I think the inner monologue is more there to “support” the processing of information rather than being filtered through it entirely.

Fuck off.

decivex , to technology in Jack Dorsey claims Bluesky is 'repeating all the mistakes' he made at Twitter

Well, tough shit then. That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

No need to be toxic about it. Do you think anyone who disagrees with you is automatically an asshole?

Other than that, there’s plenty that’s changed other than the existence of short-form content, with everything going on in the world right now people are more stressed than ever. And stress is definitely one thing that reduces attention spans.

Not saying that that is the solution but it’s definitely one explanation and in my view it’s more likely than what’s basically just the equivalent of ‘phone bad’.

Doesn’t mean it’s caused by short-form content. It’s kinda annoying seeing that repeated everywhere without evidence imo.

It looks like that study checked the effects of short-form content addiction, rather than short-form content in general. Addiction can be caused by underlying factors, such as stress or depression, which are shown to reduce attention span so I don’t think it really shows a direct causal connection. In fact, I think it’s more accurate to say short attention spans cause short-form content rather than the other way around.

That said, excessive social media consumption can make stress and depression worse, I just think we’re focussing on the wrong aspect of social media’s effect on our mental health.

I don’t think there’s actually any evidence that short-form content reduces people’s attention spans.

decivex , to nostupidquestions in Why do people still eat beef when we know it's terrible for Earth?

I’m not a vegetarian by any stretch but even I know there’s nothing natural about how the bio industry works.

I looked at their twitter and their latest tweet was a quote tweet boosting an account widely known as an anti-lgbt hate group. They’re absolutely disgusting.

decivex , to technology in Brave browser quietly slips a VPN service onto your Windows PC

Cool, that kinda looks like vivaldi except based on firefox.

decivex , (edited ) to games in You teleport into the last game world you played. What happens next?

Drown in rain. I’m too big for the shelters.

decivex , to gaming in Was Unity lying yesterday or are they lying today?

What does ‘install’ mean here anyway? Most unity games I play are either distributed as archives or installed through third party launchers.

decivex , to startrek in How Many Star Trek Episodes Pass the Bechdel Test? (TOS to ENT) | The Mary Sue

The Bechdel test doesn’t tell you if something is ‘good’ or not, you mainly use it to identify trends in media overal. The fact that voyager predictably scored highest is, to me, a sign that it does measure something real, which I’d consider to be a hallmark of what a good metric is supposed to do.
