This is a thought experiment "Ball on a Table" for detecting whether someone has Aphantasia. What do you see when you perform this experiment?
    • yellow
    • male
    • round face, beard, brown hair, mid 20s (I think probably some internet-famous person whose name I don't remember)
    • small plastic ball filled with air
    • a simple square table with a natural wood top and legs

    That was my first thought. But then (before reading the questions) I also imagined other similar scenarios like with a soccer ball and my desk at work, lol.

    My experience with this experiment was kind of like when they play memory flashbacks in movies, I could see the ball being pushed and falling, but with jump cuts and the timing was off. Detail-wise I'd say it was kinda like what you got from AI image generation when Dall-E first came out two-ish years ago.

    I don't think I have the most visual imagination out there but if aphantasia is one end of the scale I'm pretty far to the other side.

  • Coca-Cola Recalls Its Popular Zero Sugar Drink Because It Contains Full Sugar
  • They're not super common. I don't see one every single time I go grocery shopping, though I would say typically there are maybe one or two recalls posted somewhere in the store at a time. Most I've seen at once is four, maybe a year or so ago.

    They do always have either a picture of the product or at least the name prominently placed, so you can glance at it to see whether it's about something you might have bought.

  • Coca-Cola Recalls Its Popular Zero Sugar Drink Because It Contains Full Sugar
  • In Germany, supermarkets typically post product recalls right on the doors or over the shelves of the section that has the affected products. I guess if you bought something you might be less likely to go down that aisle again next time and come across the sign, but (barring a big empty space at the entrance) I think that's the most reasonable place for them to be

  • If you could, how would you deprogram an extreme liberal?
  • I bet this is going to be some sort of gotcha about how people didn't feel the need to "deprogram an extremist liberal", so obviously everyone is out to get the poor poor conservatives who just want to be vile in peace

  • Apple backs out of investment in OpenAI
  • According to the keynote at least, the integration is literally just Siri offering to defer to ChatGPT for some requests. Basically a more advanced version of "here's what I found on the web" if it doesn't know what to do otherwise.

    Funnily enough, Apple isn't even paying OpenAI for that, they're literally saying it's for exposure.

  • Cornell University student faces deportation over Palestine activism
  • you have what i would consider consistently bad takes on this subject

    Ah, just saw a comment from OP claiming that Israel was doing "everything possible" to prevent civilian casualties, so yeah, bad take puts it pretty well. What bad faith bs

    [gelöst] Abonnements migrieren?

    Moin liebe Community,

    ich habe es leider versäumt meine feddit.de Abonnements rechtzeitig irgendwo zu speichern. Da feddit.de jetzt offensichtlich endgültig weg ist, gibt es noch irgendeine Möglichkeit die Liste der Abonnements zu bekommen, die ich auf dem Account hatte?

    Ich bin nicht allzu optimistisch, aber ich dachte vielleicht werden Abonnements ja auch irgendwo im Fediverse weitergetragen, deswegen frag ich trotzdem mal.

    Danke für jede Hilfe :)

    Edit: hier geht es noch, falls jemand anders die gleiche Frage hat :) danke @caos für den Tipp!
