You’re saying he’s a synthetic fiber and not the traditional cotton plain weave? The textile industry will be shocked!

We’re 5 years from someone proposing “smartwall displays” where the entire wall is your display. No more messy cables or creaky mounting brackets. They’ll, of course also have removed the on/off button and you won’t get to control the volume, but just think of the stimulation!
Fahrenheit 451’s technology just around the corner of the next shitty planned community coming soon near you.

Recommend high quality short stories. Edgar Allen Poe has a collection that is some of the most thrilling, mysterious and fun, imaginative, adventurous, grotesque and other depending on the story. https://www.amazon.com/Edgar-Allan-Poe-Complete-Collection/dp/1453643141
Robert Louis Stevenson was also a fantastic writer of short stories.https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Short-Stories-Robert-Stevenson/dp/030680882X
I like short stories sometimes as I can’t commit to a larger read.
That’s actually part of the shipping package for new Windows boxes due to Recall and all the other shit they want to stuff in there.
Thanks; to be clear, most if not all of this if searchable on the web, it’s more having it easily referenced from within boost’s text entry field somewhere as a “?” Help menu or something so that all users won’t have to do that each time was my suggestion/request from Ruben.
Changes from 2Pac.
It’s the Black “imagine” by Lennon, philosophically, but also approaches the cognitive dissonance of what is wrong in the world from raw, honest and depressingly still accurate lyrics 30 years on. For me, this is a far braver and more interesting song than Imagine–and Imagine is a classic. It doesn’t let listeners off the hook and even calls them out as part of the problems.
Great rhythm, beautiful melody contrast and creatively selected issues addressed.
Ha, just responded to “coming thru” recommendation above and then saw yours!
Coming thru is one of my favs. Also dig “Day at the races” from J5 has a similar upbeat rhythm, narrative with theme, and of course flow.
Parts of it could be done, but it would always stop at “the subject is uncomfortable”, which is the whole point of why changing someone’s mind against delusions, illusions and propaganda is hard. They don’t want to, so without some treatment experiments that would certainly not meet today’s medical and/or psychological standards, we wouldn’t get an answer to many questions.
You could make a TV show sure, but all the wrong people would tune in.
Thank you for the link. It has some examples, I guess that’s what I’m asking for, and obviously what is included could be tweaked based on Lemmy differences, exclude things that are already in the quick format bar, etc.
Yes, I have that (and actually found out it can scroll to the side and there is a quick link for strikethrough!) but I’d also like stuff like “embedding gifs” and other stuff that is not commonly known.
A bit contemporary, but I’d like to have studied what it takes to break someone of illusions that were fed and forced on them externally, e.g. schooling, TV, social media and other forms of cultural imprinting and propaganda.
We’ve all had that “what would it take to get this person to realize how far off base they are?” question, it would be fascinating, in a no-holds barred experiment testing various solutions and combinations to find out which is the most effective.
E.g. someone believes climate change isn’t real because (x,y,z irrelevant). No amount of written evidence is effective to people who don’t understand the scientific method, so would it be videos, traveling to acutely affected places, having polar bears removed from all zoos, baseball bats on their knuckles when they make a logical fallacy?
It would be interesting to then categorize the types of delusions or illusions and then prescribe treatment based on these results.
Eddie Murphy and Dan Ackroyd already published the definitive paper on this.
What Musk has done in the last 2 years with Twitter looks a lot like a gangster moving into valuable turf. Granted, he immediately scared off a lot of people but it’s still pretty valuable turf.
Broken clock blah blah
A tax break for “clean energy”, “strategic investment corridor” or “self-poweting companies” to reduce the load on the grid (that a few enormous companies like MS are creating) will be written into law, if it isn’t already, and it will be a complete tax write-off or something so they get to reap any rewards and when AI hype dies down they’ll still have increased profits by reducing taxes. When you win/win by owning the system you just win.
“sorry boss, just saw ‘restart’ and updated the code…that’s not going to cause any reactor problems will it?”
Envious!
Here’s the VP of Reddit’s community cited in the article, Laura Nestler, preaching super engagement from a platforms most fanatical users to power content for the 90%.
She suggests, intrinsic motivators such as “autonomy”.

She was at Yelp prior, which if you want to look at a steaming pile of a wasted company, man give reddit 5-10 years.
