Absolutely badass. Crazy to think that folks just a coupla generations up from us had lives without modern medicine and stuff (eg birth in a teepee!) Incredible. I guess sometimes it feels like modern medicine has been around longer than it has.
Having been born in 98 I missed lots of the jems ya'll have posted in the comments 😢 thanks to you legends for dropping so many!! Leerroooy jenkiiinnnsss
Yeah discord let's you too! On the actual desktop app, at least, unsure about discord web... I believe I used teams' pop out in browser feature once, though!
All these people in the comments complaining that the bar isn't level when the picture is just taken from a slight side angle? 🤦♂️🤦♂️ literal perspective problem 😂
Also people being like "lol no such thing as a TV-bar-hanger-contractor"..... Audio/video contractors of course do this??? Like, who said its the only thing their job entails?? 😂
Jeez man, people got some PTSD about reddit power mods or something?? Why ya'll gotta be so shitty to the mods??
That thread was definitely getting toxic af, specifically the troll that posted. I agree with ya'll saying it makes sense to encourage discussion, esp on topics that're controversial, but like go read some of that OP's comments on that thread! They were being shitty to people just to be shitty - I think the mod made the right call for sure.
Even if the mod were off base, no excuse to treat 'em like shit!
"Upgraded" 🤣🤣
Something about this picture makes it look like a fuckin captcha 🤣🤣
'Select all entities that defy gravity'
Idahoan here - yeah coming from a fairly mormon-laden family tree (and community), it's pretty common around here. And like others said it typically goes both ways - the guys treat it like the gals are helpless without a man to carry the income. This place is fucking backwards and culturally prehistoric.
Don't even get me started on the bigotry & maltreatment towards trans/gay folks. If there were a progress bar for moving toward healthy / compassionate behavior towards those groups this place would be at fucking 0%, genuinely. Obscenely disrespectful.
3 minute BBC earth vid of the little dudes. How have I never seen these things before! Incredible
Wowee! Relationship chatbots are terrible for your privacy in strange new ways while also being terrible for your privacy in regular old ways.
The whole article's a great read, but here's a fun excerpt=

I'm taking a class on data privacy at the moment, and it made me think it would be interesting to see exactly what kind of advertising data has been generated by services like Google \ YouTube \ Etc. Is there somewhere online that's easy to punch in an advertising ID & find that sort of data, or is that something you'd have to request from advertisers themselves? (AdSense etc?) Or maybe do the service providers (mentioned before) store that data?
Forgive my ignorance - still learning about this stuff!
Not sure if this will help anyone else, but I couldn't find anything online about this and thought I'd share this with online just in case!
I just started playing Outer Wilds on the steam deck for a week or so, and was immediately in love with it. I decided to install it on my PC (popOS) to see how it looks with cranked graphics, and I could not for the life of me figure out how to sync my cloud saves! For some reason the deck kept saying the saves were syncing fine up to the cloud, but my pc kept sticking at 'checking....' when I asked it to sync...
In the end, I ended up finding a setting in the steam client that enables compatibility for every title in steam that isn't Linux native... when I flipped it on, Outer Wilds (along with like 4 other games in my library) all immediately resolved their bugged cloud sync!
So, I guess, steam will complain that it can't get your cloud saves to download, when really it doesn't have a compatdata folder for the saves to download to. Kinda jank!
