thanks! very helpful in decluttering and prolly peace of mind for those that chase after internet brownie points.

the ability to lie and “falsely claim”.

imagine everybody is stricken with that boy’s wish from “liar liar”

sure there would be a bunch of hurt feelings, but maybe the better world can compensate?

what

meh. all whines with no idea how they get to the next part.

looks like more reason to qualify as most.

one of them is big oil. they lied about climate change.

there’s also big plastic. they lied about recycling being sustainable.

thanks! missed that one.

imo, ‘gringo’ has no special meaning unless it was given one from a local group. like how “let’s go brandon” only makes sense on a specific group.

‘yankee’ used to have a specific one before, i.e. north-eastern US bros, but it got saturated and now could be used generally. imo, ‘yankee’ usage has ye olde vibe to it, but maybe that’s just me.

EDIT: corrected ‘southern’, thanks to Denvil

yup, there’s no problem with wood. there’s only risk when it starts to wear.

i use a solid wood one, but this suggestion works as well!

light bulbs that die too often.

those pots and sauce pans that use a screw to connect the handle. the screw head generally places inside the pot and will get to all your food.

chopping boards. plastic chopping boards enhance your meals with microplastic. composite wood enhances your food with bacteria lodged in-between wood pieces. bamboo – too thin and ends up similar to composite.

does the 30 second rule count?

big trouble if people can’t count to 30.

class action please, so we can let our powers combine

i had to double check. yes. it is a SLAP with a silent d and a. what a great name.

hmmmm, “plot armor” sounds nice to be always on.

i can agree at some extent why it could be at 10bits/sec.

the brain is known to do some shortcuts when parsing/speed reading but slows down when we try to extract details from written works. it is also more tiring to scrutinize details than to just read articles.

i was surprised that they got the speed measured.

that’s some “woke” agenda there if I had to use the same term they made.

good set of questions while trying to be non biased on certain topics.

for me, topics about privacy and misinformation matter more than ai. i would like them to lean more on helping me identify ai generated text and deepfakes as far as ai is concerned.

i also liked that mozilla study about smart cars so more of that is nice.

no proof, but it can be attributed to a kind of addiction and dopamine association.

it is not that you start hating the average food, but your mind misses that dopamine hit the good food carries. think of it like a withdrawal like effect where your body is now conditioned and has a “higher bar” for things.
