Despite everything, if you're in the US, you should still vote
  • Jill Stein you are actually voting for Trump. Stein knows where her funding comes from, and who those funders want to win, and allows that all to happen.

    Not trying to attack or anything, I just don't understand the logic of voting for someone who actually is just consciously being a spoiler candidate so the worse one will win.

  • Please ban data caps, Internet users tell FCC
  • Honestly I don't mind reasonable data caps. Like I get it, they don't want someone torrenting 100tb of data in a day. That bogs things down.

    But with 4k streaming, downloading 100gb game updates on PS5, and YouTube basically constantly on in the background, I'll hit the 1TB per month comcast limit in like 2 weeks. And that is just me, nevermind having any roommates at all.

    1TB just isn't enough for the modern Internet.

  • Amazon announces first Kindle ever with color screen, retailing for $279
  • Oh nice! Yeah this is 100% the best way to go. I use the app Mihon for finding/reading manga, its basically the same as tachiyomi before it got shut down.

    The one I use is the Boox 7.8" Nova Air2 eReader. I chose one without a color screen. The color screens are cool and all, but for black and white content, the color layer makes the white more of a grey color. For that reason I don't recommend the color e ink quite yet.

    The 7.8" screen is literally the perfect size for manga. It feels perfect.

    Good luck!

  • Amazon announces first Kindle ever with color screen, retailing for $279
  • I just got a boox e ink tablet. It runs android. I have a sideloaded manga reading app and Google books installed. epub books (found easily on Yandex) can be uploaded to Google books from my phone.

    I love it.

  • 'Is Trump okay?' Confusion as 'exhausted' ex-president abruptly ends friendly interview
  • So I just watched the clip. Granted the clip was only a few seconds, and yes I believe he is old and senile. But.

    The clip doesn't seem to give evidence of anything specific. He might have to pee for all we know.

  • Cards Against Humanity continue to bring good into the world
  • So this is probably a plan to call out Elon musk's stupid "pay to sign a petition" plan. Basically just buying votes. The more attention these schemes get, the more likely they will be made officially illegal.

    Sort of a Satanic Temple maneuver. I like it.

  • North Korean defector in South stole bus in bid to return home, media reports say
  • When I was living over in Seoul, I volunteered at an organization that supported North Korean refugees. There were lots of native South Korean people there too. I imagine it's a mixed bag, similar to the US.

  • YouTube Premium is getting a huge price hike in over a dozen countries, sparking user backlash. Some countries are experiencing hikes between 30% and 50%
  • YouTube is the only streaming platform I pay for. I don't want to bother with 3rd party apps, and I use it every day. Plus I get YouTube music out of it, so I don't need to pay for Spotify. Overall 7/10 it's fine.

    No judgements toward people who don't want to pay though, I get it.

  • Android Controller Support in the New Update?

    lolll just kidding I've completely lost hope.

    Exclusive controller support on mobile platforms is absolutely a set deal they have with Apple.

    Telegram X reactions

    Yo,

    Does anyone know how the "quick reactions" in telegram X work? On the normal app, you double click the message, and your preset reaction bops in. It doesn't seem to work the same way in X. There is a setting for it, but I have no idea how to get it to work.

    Thanks!

    I've been watching a lot of HeathyGamerGG lately. Is he good?

    For those who don't know, he is a twitch streamer/youtuber that talks a lot about mental health, specifically for gamers and people in the internet generation.

    In some videos, he does "therapy sessions" (technically they are not for legal purposes, but they definitely feel like therapy) with various people in the twitch/youtube sphere. I am really interested to hear the perspective of different therapists regarding his content.

    Are his interactions with people similar to what you see in real therapy sessions? Most importantly, would it be worthwhile studying how he conducts these sessions and learning from them?

    Thanks for any insights!

    What would happen if we put a giant glass tinted dome over each city?

    In this scenario, we aren't trapped in the dome. There are openings and doors, so we can get out, cycle in fresh air, etc.

    Is this a viable solution to way to avoid the effects of climate change? Would it be cooler in the dome? Would there be any negative repercussions? Would clouds form inside the dome? Could it rain in the dome? Would the rain be more toxic than usual because car fumes wouldn't dilute as well? Could outside lightning break the dome if it got struck? Would there be a single point in the dome that the sunlight would be directed to that everyone would just have to avoid, else they just burst into flame?

    Sorry but I have so many questions about this. Apparently there was a show about the situation, but all I remember is that it wasn't very good. Hank from Breaking Bad was in it.

    How do therapists avoid feelings of burnout?

    I was thinking about this today, and would love some kind of feedback from practicing therapists. How do you avoid burnout?
