  • It is an actual slippery slope and not a fallacy because we have been down the censorship road many, many times.

  • What's the most "oof" or wtf fact you know about an everyday object?

  • On high, yes. Lower and intermittent power in micro wave heats far more evenly than an oven

  • When doing work that requires multiple apps to be open or file explorers, web pages, and reference stuff then having a second is very convenient a lot of the time. Yeah, I could stretch it out on one giant monitor if it was an option, but two just makes it easy to keep track of what is where by having physical breaks.

    At home it is great for having discord or other thing off to the side for communication or reference while playing games full screen on one monitor instead of needing to alt tab or use windowed mode smaller than full screen. If I did a more immersive driving/flying set up I would have three for the wrap around effect and a fourth for the extra stuff.

    Both situations are for convenience.

    I do know someone at work that has three but they handle the infrastructure and they often have multiple apps and browsers open for all the things that interact when troubleshooting and having it large and readable makes it easier to see what is changing and what isn't changing at the same time.

  • Vine knew what it was and succeeded in encouraging creativity to fit the format. I kind of missed it, but the best of compilations really show off how entertaining getting right to the punchline can be.

  • twitter

    Jump

  • Those were pretty much social sites using text with a tiny bit of media (occasional images).

    Social media has a big emphasis on the media part, with video clips and images and so on for starting most of the discussions. Twitter started off mostly text and kind of became social media based on the screenshot I have seen of it.

  • Doge reportedly using AI tool to create ‘delete list’ of federal regulations

  • It is the second thing. They could just delete the regulations they don't like outright, inserting AI into the process is just to pretend it was some logical process.

  • Even the obligates are just really close to the end of the spectrum as they will occasionally snack on the other source for specific nutrients.

  • I do the reverse, browse subs most of the time and switch to all if I'm looking for news or new communities to subscribe too.

  • I am 99.9999% sure it has already been proven that jet fuel alone was able to defeat the structural integrity of the steel used under those loads, but too lazy to check because disproving a disproven again isn't worth the effort.

    No need to add extra details for conspiracy theorists to latch onto.

  • Google had a feature for converting units way before the AI boom and there are multiple websites that do conversions and calculations with real logic instead of LLM approximation.

    It is more like asking a random person who will answer whether they know the right answer or not. An encyclopedia or catalog at least have some time of a time frame context of when they were published.

    Putting the data into tables and other formats isn't helpful if the data is wrong!

  • Of course I have fallen for at least some propaganda at various points in time, because I'm not a fucking idiot and realize that it works.

    What is your end goal here?
