O-oh, uwould youwu wook at the time! :3

If their spam filter is “learning,” and if new signup verification emails are a consistent decades-old practice, how much longer should we wait before it’s okay to question whether Google’s filter could do better at learning?

“Objective worth” is a bit of an oxymoron, because worth is up to your value judgment.

If you’re questioning the “evolutionary imperative” that organisms want to pass on genes - one fairly human trait is that a lot of us can consciously diverge from that instinct, either fulfilling that need by passing on our legacies socially rather than genetically, or just not looking to pass anything on at all.

Something we have in common with other mammals is we prioritize whatever experience is in front of us. Anyone who’s directly affected by catastrophes and strife will have different beliefs than people who aren’t.

So if objective worth has no neat answer, what’s left?

I’d say it’s interesting to have so many different subjective experiences in one world, with a language-based society able to communicate and share many more varied experiences than most animals. Interesting isn’t inherently good or bad, but if nothing was good nor bad then nothing would be interesting.

So yea. Human life is entertaining. We’ve got that going for us!

P.S. If you’ve ever lived in a city whose infrastructure is strained by overpopulation, you don’t necessarily view declining/shifting populations as a bad thing.

Who do you feel the need to convince of this? Yourself? Lol

Did you know making fun can be friendly and fun

Headcanon bonus joke: Mario’s hand gesturing a single pea looks like he’s just making the Italian hand gesture, adding to Luigi’s confusion

I mean the super rich generally did a lot of things on their way there. The wake up call is usually around the things they do and people they exploit, not equating the difference to dumb luck.

Hoo-wee you’re gonna be extra disappointed about that particular demographic then

Boy are you gonna be disappointed to learn who’s on the internet then

Perhaps because it’s not

That’s wonderful for you, but it does happen.

This is my guess too

I made one that said START once

It’s not

What a cool piece of art! Too bad about the text over it

Justice for Bing Bong

It’s so MADDENING

This is less a design choice and more the reality of package-based architecture, but - menus that I have to wait before interacting.

I spent most of my life being able to enter clicks and hotkeys as fast as I want, because they would queue up and the app would resolve them in order. Now I can’t type too fast after pressing the Windows Start button, because the start menu needs time to load before it can handle KEYPRESSES. Tapping Windows key followed by “Discord” will search for “iscord” or something if I type full speed.

It feels like every modern app is optimized for a slow person browsing one-handed on a phone.

Nametag that says “GitHub CoPilot” and if anyone asks you to “help them with their code” answer like you’re Clippy from MS Word

The point being discussed is the false idea that alcohol creates relaxation for someone who lacks a setting to be able to relax without it

It just doesn’t work that way. Top level comment is spitting truth
