Threw a wrestling watch party, made special food, and was very disappointed in the outcome. (lemmy.world)

So as you can see in the picture, I threw a party last year. AEW is a pro wrestling company, much like WWE. They had this big outdoor show at Wembley Stadium in London. Sold something like 80,000 tickets. We watched live on PPV....

Shit that looks delicious but maybe they just weren’t hungry (could have eaten before). And I don’t mean to disrespect you but you did not have to do this much for watching a wrestling game. Though it does suck 2 people flaked.

I’ve never seen a Publix with a drink dispenser. Where are these usually?

Oh good point, never been to the delis myself. I didn’t realize they had a mini food court, thought it was just a place to buy meats or their sandwiches.

UK's first 'teacherless' AI classroom set to open in London (archive.md)

A private school in London is opening the UK’s first classroom taught by artificial intelligence instead of human teachers. They say the technology allows for precise, bespoke learning while critics argue AI teaching will lead to a “soulless, bleak future”....

electric ,

As stupid as it is, hoping to see the results. It does sound like a neat experiment but even if it is “successful” (my definition probably differs from their’s), a good teacher is more than just a learning tool. AI would never replace the empathy and dedication.

Wild fucking read. Was thinking maybe his first girlfriend was using a pseudonym (Turkish-born named Susan Banks?), but conveniently no one has met all 3 of his activist girlfriends. The last bit about the guy deleting all his social media posts AND his last “girlfriend” doing the same after IGN reached out is glaringly suspicious.

This sounds like you want Deadlock. MOBA with third-person shooter mechanics.

India police rescue American woman chained to tree in jungle who claims husband left her there to die (www.cbsnews.com)

Police in India found a 50-year-old American woman chained to a tree in a forest in the country’s western Maharashtra state, where she claims her Indian husband left her to die. Maharashtra Police told CBS News the woman, identified as Lalita Kayi Kumar, was found in a forest in the Sindhudurg district of the state, about 280...

A video broadcast by India’s India Today TV channel showed medics surrounding Kumar on a hospital bed as she wrote a note to communicate her story. In it, she says she is unable to speak and alleges that her husband left her shackled in the jungle to die.

“Injection for extreme psychosis which caused a severely locked jaw and inability to drink any water. Need intravenous food. 40 days without food and water. Husband tied me to a tree in the forest and said I would die there,” the note read.

Oh this poor woman. Her husband is an animal.

I thought it was a joke. I didn’t this was an actual person.

I need new glasses. The only insurance-approved place I can shop online will cost $250 with my needs. I went to a "cheap" glasses website that doesn't accept insurance: $250. Yay, America.

The optometrist recommended seamless bifocals. I have a very painful nerve condition in my face (atypical trigeminal neuralgia), so this is what I need with glasses: the lightest weight frames possible- known as ultra light- with the lightest weight lenses possible and automatically darkening lenses so I don’t need the weight...

Wait, the blue tint actually does something? Everyone kept telling me to get it because sCrEeNs BaD but I wanted the clearest vision possible. Couldn’t find anything online saying the blue tint wasn’t useless so saved myself the $30.

…you sleep with them on? How?

I don’t understand the attraction to Twizzlers but I will die defending those delicious cookies. Just got to find a brand that actually puts filling. Great with milk.

Rap songs where the artist just blurts out random words.

Hate her because she was prosecutor but at least she’s not the undead monster that is Bo Jiden.

Wow, this guy has serious punchable face energy. It’s not even that interesting, the leakers he catches (or at least the only ones he talks about) are really dumb (one is a child who data mined!).

Under the watchful and demanding eyes of their instructors, they discover what it takes to become Starfleet officers as they navigate blossoming friendships, explosive rivalries, first loves…

These executives are allergic to making good shows.

electric ,

As if Star Trek is starving for a fan base.

electric ,

I enjoyed Riverdale. I would never want it to replace a Star Trek show. A teen drama with Star Trek dressing absolutely stinks of desperation from Paramount.

electric ,

They expanded it by making quality shows. Also isn’t your first line contradictory since this is aimed at a younger demographic?

Luca, his parents were told, could be a financial burden on the country.

Oh hell that is evil. How can you even kick a child’s parents out of a country? He will be even more of a burden if the state has to take care of him.

A compound crime: Israeli army hits Gaza family, uses them as human shields, and runs over their mother (euromedmonitor.org)

The Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor field team documented a compound and comprehensive crime against a civilian family comprising an elderly woman and her four children, including three young women and a one-and-a-half-year-old granddaughter....

electric ,

I don’t know how every adult in Gaza hasn’t decided to take up arms. This isn’t even my mother and I feel like getting violent over it. Poor Palestinians getting Holocaust’ed when all it would take is Biden waking up from his coma long enough to order a drone strike on that yahoo.

Despite the boring, miserable and overly controlled experience, I returned the next year. I don’t like confrontation, and the Communist Party officials had already signed me up, so I went again.

Could have just… not paid the $300 a second time. Also this dude looks like the 3rd Sprouse brother.

Please be fake. :(

Consider how limited our time is and if you really want to spend it on “garbage”.

electric ,

Ok but this gay British dude (who needs HIV meds on top!) willingly moved to a country where he is automatically made a criminal for his sexuality. How lucrative must this job have been to take such a huge risk?

electric ,

That somehow feels worse to me. Can of yikes if they really think that way.

electric ,

Based independent man. We’d have a whole lot less incels and men with mental issues if there wasn’t such an ever present pressure/expectation to be in a relationship.

Precisey, but I guess they want a “real” and “classy” woman. How ironic.

Enjoy freedom! Keep in touch with your friends, if you had any/liked them.

Afghanistan

Tourists

Yeah.

Also, what a shitty article. No other information beyond what was said in the title, though the extra context of how Afghanistan went from almost 700 tourists in 2021 to 7000 now is both concerning and disappointing.

In my experience, it’s usually the same length or alcoholic ones get almost a page long. Though I did go to one where the non-alcoholic options consisted solely of sodas, shame.

I’ve been in plenty where you could just order milk. 🤷

Though usually those are chain restaurants that prioritize breakfast, might be why.

I created a board game alternative for evil people (lemmy.today)

Guys, I have something to brag about. After almost a year of hard learning, I finally created my first mobile game! Storiado is a board game alternative that will make you wonder what’s wrong with your friends. Play by answering simple questions, mix all the answers, and generate the most twisted story you’ve ever read. And...

Congrats! I’ll have to see who I can play this with, looks funny.

If I sign up on a hot air balloon ride and there is bad weather can I get my money back?

Each of the companies that we have talked to for Hot air balloon rides have said you pay for it in advance, then if there is bad weather, you don’t get your money back. You just have to reschedule for another day. We have a friend who had to make many many many trips an hour and a half each way and each time on the way there,...

electric ,

That still doesn’t make any fairer. OP expects a service for their money. If there happens to be bad weather, it’s not right for the company “sorry, too windy, come again another time with more money”.

Also don’t gatekeep balloon rides, it’s not like you’re renting a private jet.

electric ,

That’s interesting, glad you brought extra context. Wouldn’t a better option be to factor the losses from bad weather into the price instead?

electric ,

He doesn’t have to pay for another flight? Thought it was like water parks where your money just goes into the ether if it rains.

electric ,

Oh wow, I missed that sentence. Makes sense now, nevermind!

electric ,

Oh absolutely, still in agreement with you. I just thought they were outright stealing your money. Time is still valuable. I don’t think a balloon ride might be a guarantee though, just the nature of it. Hope you guys find a way!

electric ,

Was about to say how disrespectful this article is to her, but wow that reporter especially should have known better.

electric ,

I’ve had this for about a week or 2. Super annoying because you can’t continue the video by pressing the play/pause button, need to “Ok” the video window. Come on Google, you just bricked a button on your OWN OS. Awful.

…did I miss out on a memo that Morn is immortal?

Xcode has a simulator that can run any model of iPhone or iPad. Works exactly like a real device.

Oh, I haven’t needed to touch that yet. Good to know for the future!

Is the new Fallout TV show depressing?

I get pretty easy depressed watching TV shows with a depressing tone or a lot of character deaths or that. If its more in the background its generally fine, but things like Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, and The Boys are a lot for the moment. How does the new Fallout show compare?...

electric ,

The first 10 minutes is quite depressing since you witness the ol’ bomb drops. Then a massacre takes place in middle of the episode. I didn’t find Breaking Bad depressing but it’s definitely not The Boys tier.

electric ,

I know, just found Joker even funnier now.

electric ,

Joker crazy in the streets and the sheets.
