Ah yes, the very real and reliable website we all know and love, the-independent

Yeah I’ve noticed that there are far fewer job postings these days than there were a few months ago.

I can’t tell if this is a liberal or conservative meme, since both sides call the other side fascist.

This is a misleading headline. The survey question asked if you know any friends OR CLASSMATES who have generated AI nudes. If just one kid in a large school generates AI nudes and a lot of other kids find out about it, then those kids will answer yes on this survey. So this statistic doesn’t do a good job of indicating exactly how widespread this is.

Very mysterious. I wonder if she knew what the baggage room was for, or if she just wandered in there. Hoping we’ll find out more details.

Can someone please explain? What would cause VS Code to show an image like this? Is this related to a plugin? (I don’t know what a docstring is)

I’m confused, does this mean that an ad can show the URL “google.com” even though clicking on it will take you to a different URL? Why doesn’t Google just make it so that the ad shows the actual URL that the ad links to?

The two examples of misogynistic memes in this article are really tame IMO. It’s the type of humor that teenage boys have always had, long before the existence of social media. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely think social media algorithms are having a major negative impact on society. But I don’t think content like this is the problem.

Interesting, I didn’t know there were so many assassination attempts in the past.

What kind of trash tier journalism is this. Genocide is a real, serious issue. You can’t just call something a genocide metaphorically, that’s incredibly disrespectful.

I remember using ChaCha. Good times

I’m glad that the government is trying to address the issue of social media, but obviously adding warnings isn’t going to do anything.

I think the only way to actually solve the problem would be to regulate the recommendation algorithms to make them less addictive and less harmful.

I don’t know much about GTA, but I have a hard time imagining GTA6 being anything less than a gigantic success. It doesn’t need to be a massive improvement over GTA5, it just needs to be a noticeable upgrade. The only way I can see it failing is if they get too greedy with their live service model, but even then it’s still probably going to sell like 40 million copies in its first year.

Apple could easily do the bare minimum to keep regulators at bay while still keeping the experience as shitty as possible so that Android will continue to look bad. For example they could refuse to implement reactions or typing indicators, or they could even deliberately compress videos. I’m expecting the worst until we see otherwise.

It’s cool to see someone making a product like this. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how to use phones more mindfully, and I had an idea for a concept very similar to this. So it’s cool to see that other people are on the same wavelength as me.

It would be cooler if the brick was activated by NFC instead of scanning it though. But maybe that’s an improvement they can make in a future version.

This article doesn’t make any sense. A project’s “success” can’t really be measured in any objective way like the article is implying. Even saying that a project is “on time” is a vague statement depending on the situation, and it’s not a good way to measure the quality of the end result or the efficiency of the development team.

I think this will only strengthen his core supporters because they’ll view him as a martyr. It might push away some people on the fence. But I think the martyrdom angle and the increased media spotlight could pull some people back in. Personally I think it probably won’t make a difference overall. All publicity is good publicity.

Agreed. Also this law can’t even be enforced. Unless they’re just passing this law so that abused influencer children will have legal grounds to sue their parents. But we should be passing laws to prevent the abuse in the first place.
