The real test of moneymaking ability online is how many times can you say LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE before you make an attempt on your own life?

Even the memory of the nasally whine of AWWW Topsy is enough to trigger a minor migraine

Its like when people say “I can always spot trans people”. Yeah you’ve spotted 100% of the ones you’ve spotted.

That was remarkably well done how they handled that material, especially with how much of a joke American Dad makes things (which it should its a comedy cartoon but still).

I have to keep checking my weight on the scales and referring against the BMI charts because of that. I am fat right now, but looking back at pictures of myself I was very skinny for a while, but have always felt fat as fuck.

Right now they are. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

Compared to just 20 years ago we’re living in the future. You may not have noticed the progress because you’d expect the future to includes hoverboards.

I guess for the fast food orders there could be some insights with enough volume and associated data (time, frequency, location.)

If someone suddenly started ordering loads or boycotted that one that decided homophobia was the way to go or something you could sense political leaning.

You could get a sense of allergies or vegetarianism.

You may figure out payday

Could maybe get a feel for menstrual cycles

Could figure out someone’s route home

Family size maybe.

Probably more idk.

Let’s go to the nightclub like when we were younger.

End up everyone looking at you funny because you’re the only person over 22.

This whole thread is twisting my melon. Im gonna be wondering whether or not this object counts as a cup all day now.

Obligatory parks and recreation

Skip a minute into it though for some reason the clip starts way sooner than it needs to.

Yeah he said “-if- it wasn’t a beverage” its just a hypothetical

Well played

I think it doesnt matter so much where the line is, because people who want to be offended by that kind of thing will find something to be offended about.

I don’t see anything wrong with those examples in that article. I see it as like a giant game of “Guess Who” when I’m trying to talk about a specific member of the group to someone who doesnt know who’s who. Nothing wrong with saying Mitch is “the Asian classmate” if he’s the only one.

I’ve seen people desperately trying not to say “the black guy” when there’s only one black guy and they’re trying to narrow it down. “He’s sort of tall and has glasses and a beard but not like a full beard and I think he was wearing a tie and” its interminable.

Using “othering” aggressively, implying that the differences matter, is a problem. Using it as an identifiable feature is only a problem to PC Principal.

Is the big joke that it actually is Unix?

Yeah but 50 years ago they couldn’t run a toaster

Jesus fucking christ

My sweat is just seasoning.

In his defence (feels dirty and weird typing that) he’s probably being lied to. I have very little clue about the legitimacy of information I get on world news, as everybody has an agenda and misinformation is so easy to create and disseminate. If he’s got to be on the case with basically every issue, he’ll just be getting fed information and has to trust that his advisors know what they’re doing. I wouldn’t bother fact checking everything if I were in that position, there’s simply not enough hours in the day.

Of course he’s also a confirmed liar and a known prick so who knows.

Or what would he expect someone to do? The best you can do is share information, information that you’ve been simply told yourself. Every time I’ve tried to express the opinion that “yeah that’s not OK” I end up bombarded with whataboutism and do you even begin to comprehend the previous 3000 years of history and how dare you have an opinion when you didn’t even consider why they’re doing it etc etc etc.

By the end I just give up. I can’t even be sure Israel actually exists. It’s on maps. People talk about it. I haven’t actually been there and verified it’s real, never mind what goes on over that way.

Turns out all you can actually do is keep your own little world clean.

Feels like that clip ends about 5 minutes too soon
