Don’t question corporations forcing people to come into an office to work on a computer all day.

I’m willing to bet they would cache the garbage ai summary… not that that makes a difference to your overall point.

The ai garbage at the top doesn’t stop you from doing that.

On the one hand, it’s insulting to expect people to write entries for free only to have AI just summarize the text and have users never actually read those written words.

On the other hand, the future is people copying the url into chat gpt and asking for a summary.

The future is bleak either way.

Thanks! It’s been so long since I left Reddit that I forgot this one.

I’m gonna pretend to be an ice agent and go into a McDonald’s and order a McFlurry and pay for my it and say thank you and eat in the lobby and clean up my mess and leave and never mention I’m an ice agent.

Flag code aside, people who deify the American flag over the rights and welfare of human beings should spend a year in jail.

Flags are just things. Burn ‘em, wave ‘em, tattoo them on your buttcheek. I don’t care. It’s not more important than the human beings being treated like garbage.

I will remain doubtful until actual evidence comes out.

The example they gave was somebody noticing the name on the ballot didn’t match what they chose on the screen. I don’t know about others, but I always look at the ballot before putting it in the box. If I noticed Trump’s name, I absolutely would have said something.

If they are implying this happened on such a massive scale that Trump would have actually lost (120k in PA alone), then I guarantee this issue would have been noticed by a much higher percentage of people and would have been all over the news on Election Day.

Besides, I think exit polling generally matched up with the results.

Would we have beat the nazis if they just stayed in Germany?

Yeah, this makes sense. I wasn’t exactly thinking about the impacts of current events on the future, and that playing into how things are remembered, but that’s a good point.

I think part of what I was getting at is that history is often blurred by memories of the events and the limited media and reporting that stood the test of time. A narrative will form and there will be limited amounts of stats that contradict it.

This aspect will be different going forward. The memory is less relevant since we have an overwhelming amount of media and reporting that lives on. And we also have massive amounts of first hand video footage that.

Maybe history will just be defined by who creates the best narrative out of this massive amount of data. And people will still ignore the contradicting evidence. It happens in real time anyway.

Side bar: I don’t think the way “history” remembers current events matters anymore. The way news spreads and is remembered is so different now than it was in 1965 that I don’t think history will view our current time that much differently than we did. Just my theory.

 

I had this thought after watching a game where the winning team came back from the 2 minute warning running the victory formation.

It seems dumb to me that we come back from the 2 minute ~~warning~~ commercial break and the only time we have action is if the game is close and the losing team has the ball or has timeouts.

What if instead, the winning team is forced to run plays that actually drain the clock, or attempt to get yards and points. I feel like this would make the last 2 minutes more exciting.

Take the Bills v Chiefs game. It was an exciting game, but Chiefs went into victory formation at the 1:30 mark. What if instead the chiefs would have to keep playing for at least another minute? What other sports can we have a game this close where the last minute+ is this boring?

Alternate idea, under 1 minute, the play clock stops after every play.

Any thoughts? I think both would make for a more exciting 2 minutes, and change the coaching strategy in an interesting way.

 
 

2 great movies about bad moms. One from the child’s perspective, the other from the mom’s perspective.

 

Welcome to my darkness. I spent my life hunting this guy, Morty. This is the closest I've ever been to Rick Prime. It's impossible. He.. He's an incredibly crafty piece of shit. Hunting him destroyed me, Morty, but now we're gonna do it together. You and me. It's going to take over your life Morty! Rick and Morty season 7: Hunting My Nemesis. Maybe trying to stay healthy while doing it? Juggling plates? Not every episode, Morty. It could be all happening in the background. Who knows? No.. Noone will, except us. It.. It's the most painfull shit I've ever had to deal with, but I'm bringing you into it because you asked for it, Morty! You and me Morty!

 

I’m not really sure where to ask this question. Maybe there’s a lemmy dev community where these kind of discussions already happen.

I feel like the default front page in Lemmy is still severely lacking when compared to Reddit’s r/all algorithm. I find hot and top hourly to be nearly identical. The top 6 hour is closer, but still not as good as what the Reddit default front page is.
