Facebook is evil. This has been shown in any number of countless ways in the past decade. If you advertise on Facebook and therefore look to monetize that evil to your benefit, I hope you get screwed with your pants on.

It's not the data the CCP wants, it's the influence in what is served to American eyeballs by their algorithm. Data you can buy anywhere.

they didn't include all his doctors visits, over the 10 months, he was supposedly "working himself up from the streets by his bootstraps", I wonder, not having applied to public health benefits from the state, who, exactly paid for all those doctor visits (or was that part conveniently left out as well)

Red Lobster eyes bankruptcy option after $11M in losses from endless shrimp (abcnews.go.com)

“Last year, Red Lobster reported $11 million in operating losses following its flubbed ‘Ultimate Endless Shrimp’ deal, which backfired when it reeled in too many customers after the limited-time promo became a permanent menu fixture last June. The restaurant chain later reported $12.5 million in losses in the fourth...

It's not that Musk ever thought Tesla could design "better" components, it's that Musk knew Tesla could design proprietary components, and in there lies the grift.

My grandmother was used as slave labor by BMW making Nazi plane engines at Auschwitz, so, I'm the wrong guy to make this joke to. But who cares about how anyone feels, or actual responsibility, not many. Enjoy your Teslas, and VW's, and Chick Fil A's, I'm gonna keep talking about this shit like it matters.

I'm seeing I'm in the vast minority of one who didn't enjoy Lower Decks. I found it loud, frenetic, and shrill. I caught most of the first season before tapping out. I haven't liked Discovery. Picard season two went to the zoo and I didn't go along on the ride with it, or returned to check out season 3.

But I am very much enjoying Strange New Worlds (the musical episode aside). Looking foward to more SNW, and Starfleet Academy, and since the "movie" coming out is an offshoot of Discovery I'm not all that jazzed for it even with Michelle Yeoh, but I'll probably check it out.

Firstly to all the members of the peanut gallery, Linux sucks donkey cock.

Now with that out of the way, secondly, Windows 11 has noticeable lag just before os, and security updates, which is a drag.

Lastly, it WAS snappier out of the box on release, but after subsequent updates, and inserts like every new fangled version of teams, edge, and now copilot, they're starting to swamp the OS, and that's gonna be disastrous in the long term.

I see people blaming "Victorian England" for modesty, as if Full Female only Body and Face veiling hasn't been prevalent since before the Byzantine Empire

"On Thursday, around 100-150 folks came out, according to Debbie, to purchase a drink. Even more brought donations from friends who couldn’t make it out. Some people drove up and handed the family their donations in exchange for a cup; others got out and mingled and talked with the family. Some brought more lemonade, sugar, lemons and cups in case Emouree ran out. (In fact, the local Piggly Wiggly ran out of lemons Thursday.)

So much of the community was there – police officers, a motorcycle group, judges, EMS workers, nurses – to show their support. Numerous businesses – the list is long, and it keeps growing – brought checks or pledged money to help. Others have donated clothes for Emouree and brought food.

But that’s not it. Multiple local monument companies reached out to donate a tombstone to the family, and enough money has been raised to pay for her mom’s funeral costs."

As community should, this is not a dystopian story. People die, mothers die, this is a story of community coming together to help a little girl heal.

poor people exist, poor mothers die, this is not dystopian, it's the human condition, it maybe unfair, and point to an unfair system, but it's not dystopian, this isn't new, and it isn't imagines, it's the way things always have been. words have meaning. and this doesn't mean that.

individually, not important, together with a mass of collected data, over time, patterns emerge, those patterns can be everything from people, and people within your demographic, age, sex, location, race, education level, marital status, relationship status, and THAT is invaluable to corporations (and governments) in figuring out what to sell, how to sell it, and who to sell it to.

they say knowledge is power, and that's just what all this data from billions of different sources gives others, an overview of human interaction with each other, technology, and most importantly the things that motivate them to act.

Big fan. By the by, I recently learned how to make chuck roast, yes, chuck roast, have the consistency and taste of Prime Rib through a 24 hour sous vide, then one minute each side pan sear. Knocked my socks off.
