Fold 7, love it for blending OSRS and YouTube.

thats gotta be, what, 1% of the profit they made from this?

I always go back to Prometheus when talking about the “Idiot Ball” because it’s the gold standard. You’ve got these world-class scientists sent on a trillion-dollar mission who don’t even know what they’re doing there until they wake up from cryo, and then they immediately act like children playing in a backyard.

The second the sensors say the air is “breathable,” they’re ripping their helmets off like they’ve never heard of a space-virus or a spore. It’s insane. Then you’ve got the biologist, a literal professional, seeing a hissing, alien “space-cobra” in a clear threater posture and his first instinct is to try and pet it like a stray cat.

And don’t even get me started on the guy who literally mapped the cave with high-tech drones being the one who gets hopelessly lost in it. Or the “Prometheus School of Running Away from Things” where you run in a perfectly straight line under a falling, circular ship instead of just… stepping to the left? It’s like the script needed the plot to happen so badly that it just stripped every character of their survival instincts and professional training.

Compare that to competency porn shows, like the Martian, where they FEEL like the best of the best

“I was cancelled” -iskall

Gemini, use it a lot as an AA I’m my work, reviewing emails and RFPs

Yea, I have a friend that recently moved to the states, and their rates jumped too.

They were on a local, government subsidised, $10/day program too!

God, that would be amazing. I pay $1200 CAD for my child care.

Rewatched it with my wife recently

Sat on the edge of my seat as the stories came together… Wife was completely non-plussed

When I was doing my shopping, LG and Maytag were trading places for most reliable

That is a very, very extensive “I have no clue what I’m talking about in this subject”

Maybe take 10 minutes to educate yourself before opening your mouth.

I use Versatile Thermostat and scheduler, for a basic control loop, and then use automations to overwrite target temps to versatile thermostat

Ie: normal temp is 20, but if only I am home, house temp is 18.

It’s almoast like they keep investing on bigger and bigger cars, instead of what the people want.

That’s how I feel about Canada allowing chinese car makers: if the Chinese EVs will serve the market out local companies repeatedly have failed to serve, then bring em in.

Are you unfamiliar with the concept of an analogy?

you’ve had to buy ‘extra stuff’ for decades. The TV is only half the equation.

Its buying a DSLR camera, and being upset it didn’t come with the best lens. It comes with one that works, but you arn’t going to have good results.

basically confirmed what i assumed (but we know how dangerous that is)

the news breaker got it mostly wrong, but of course the goverment isnt perfect.

Found the pedo!

Thanks!

I quit the big R when they killed third party apps.

Would have paid them a monthly fee to use my app,but the way they killed them really soured me on Reddit. Burned my account, and moved on

Beside the testimony of this one person, de we have any credible reasons to believe there is widescals fraud here?

Fraud absolutely does happen, and if it’s real it needs to be caught, but there are also anti-fraud fraudsters

Just unsubscribed from duo, after a 1500 day streak, and 8 years being a paid member

Sent them this email

Just reaching out to let you know why, after years of subscription and a 1500 day streak, why I finally intentionally broke my streak and unsubscribed

I joined early on, like 10+ years ago, and loved the weirdness of early Duolingo to learn Spanish, I ame and went, but always spread the gospel

But over the last 3-4 years, duo has been showing the enshitifcation more and more. Going from a fun system to this entierly linear system, changes to the unpaid energy system, removal of comments and the forum

Then, recently, pushing Duolingo max, removing practice for a max button, a service I don’t have, ever increasing of AI slop, removal of paid volenteers.

I really loved duo, but hate to see it in this sad state. I loved learning a second language, and would continue to pay for it, but it’s clear you no longer view your self as a language platform, but just a way to make a quick buck

Duo would cry if he could.
