I’m comparing two shitty things using hyperbole
I’m comparing two shitty things using hyperbole
Fastest and easiest way to get my point across
It was not temporary for me. I had to go into my settings and delete my changes to get it working again.
Nah, they’re awful. Your explanation is like someone saying, “Nazis are awful,” and you saying “Depends. Fritz had me over for dinner and him and his wife are pretty nice, and Hanz is good defense for a game of footie.”
Just because there are exceptions to the rule, doesn’t make the entire format, as a whole, not awful. The idea, right down to its core of being 1) easily accessible 2) quickly digestible and 3) easy to market with turns it into a party where everyone is jumping around saying “Hey, hey! Look at me! Looook at meeeeeee! Please give me your attention!”
This is why 50% of TikTok users surveyed said that videos over one minute long are stressful for them, it’s completely devastated people’s attention spans.
But this still ignores the ultimate cardinal sin of video content: forcing the vertical aspect ratio in order to facilitate easier scrolling, even though OUR BINOCULAR VISION IS OPTIMIZED FOR WIDESCREEN VIEWING.
I swear that these board of director types are some of the most dense and out of touch people on the planet. It’s crazy how we reward them for their stupidity in exchange for their unbridled greed.
You can also use the “zap” feature. Just use the lightning bolt icon to the left of the eyedropper and it’ll skip step 4. I also found this to work better because selecting shorts ended up always selecting the entire videos section as well.
That’s probably because the EU generally isn’t run by a two party system, where both parties are actually just center-right neoliberals. If you want EU style protections, you have to actually fight for it, like pretty much every European country did.
This is the sorta shit that will likely be in the EUs sights soon. Installing applications nobody asked for because of the carrier? That sounds fucking insanely invasive. It’s like Adidas installing a camera in your apartment because you bought a pair of sneakers.
I once read that the best way to reply is by simply saying thank you.
Because of quarterly profits. We have to hit those KPIs!
But, yeah. Honestly, I’m fucking done with mass appeal websites. You know what else is mass appeal? Reality television and pop music. Let the idiots have TikTok, Instagram and Twitter, that should be enough for them.
A lot of what you mention is pretty accurate. Take the internet and websites. I made a website a year ago for my portfolio.
It doesn’t have a landing page, its purposely difficult to navigate and I used zero seo when designing it. I showed it to the CTO at the company I worked at and he thought it was great, but every other person at the company was saying the website is shit, I dont know how to use it.
Its literally just a menu, which has clickable menu links at the bottom in case you’re really that dim. But because it involves hunting and clicking instead of just scrolling downwards mindlessly its “wrong.” These same people see nothing wrong with ad copy laden seo articles.
I haven’t changed my website and instead moved from working in tech to working in the arts full time now. I’m sorry, but IT people mostly fucking suck and they’re just never going to appreciate anything that doesn’t fit their parameters of tolerance.
Its okay, Uber banned her account. Crisis averted.
You can also get brewers yeast
Yeah, I mean, even if your job is literally dangerous as fuck, you can get tripped up for the easiest thing. See: Michael Schumacher
I would never allow someone to bolt me into a capsule I couldn’t manually exit. That sort of shit is insanely naive.
The ceo is aboard the “sub,” so it might be one of the few times a ceo actually gets punished for being an asshole.
Reddit thought it was immune to diggifying itself
If spez tried to tell me to do anything in a post apocalyptic scenario, I would use him as bait to catch food.
I was still popping last week, but its all but slowed to a trickle at this point. Reddit fucking sucks today, and I say that as a 12 year user who thought it sucked 3 years ago.
More like “Let me rifle through everything in your apartment, your email, browser history, passwords, social media messages, and then provide me the geolocation date for everywhere you go, along with your biometric data.”
The problem with your argument is it doesn’t even showcase just how egregious the entire privacy invasion aspect is.
