The real world.
The real world.
The law: Do what we say, don’t challenge us, give us all your wealth, we can change the law at any time.
“On two occasions I have been asked, ‘Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?’ I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.” - Charles Babbage
Just give it a couple of years for the hype/boom/bust cycle to complete, then it’ll settle down and people will start using the tech appropriately.
Not to mention it’ll work terribly in most light conditions.
My work machine is W11 and has options to change it. Not one of those stupid ‘home’ vs ‘pro’ version things is it?
They used to have that as a filter. Although for a long while you could pick short (<4 mins) or long (>20 mins) but not medium length videos.
This, too, was a sign they had no fucking idea what they were doing.
Nope, I’ve seen it myself. Cannot imagine a more useless feature.
Some older online games have pretty good latency tolerance because they were built in an era before broadband was widely available.
Vanilla World of Warcraft, for example, has a ‘spell batching’ mechanic that helps to equalise things somewhat. You’ll need to play on a private server though because Blizz changed spell batching in Classic.
Well, with their track record…
For a while there I thought “moved to Belarus” was going to become the new “fell from a window”, but I guess they’ve decided to stick with tradition.
In my experience, influencers are people who:
And about a million other things I can’t think of right now.
In short, they’re among the most awful people around. You really don’t need a more insulting term.
“Shitto” is a real name in Zimbabwe.
YouTube’s algorithm is weirdly prone to fixation, and quite hard to train out of habits.
My bane is ASMR videos. I watched a couple of vids on physiotherapy a few years back and that’s it. The ASMR crowd had been all through the comments and I guess that was enough for the algorithm to make the link. Now it won’t let go no matter how many times I hit “not interested”.
I refuse to look up anything food related in case I end up with mukbang all through my feed.
Don’t Google that, by the way. You’re better off ignorant.
Right up there with Ctrl-X, C and V for Xut, Copy and Vaste respectively.
That’s commerce, not capitalism.
I wouldn’t object to paying if:
I recently had to talk a designer out of implementing a “webpage progress indicator” that was a thin horizontal bar across the top of the page that filled in as you progressed through the content.
And just straight up broken by idiocy like infinite scroll.
Or, as I’ve heard it, moving above and below decks regularly.
