That’s some solid reframing, bro 👍

So you have to fiddle with the volume less on vinyl?

That’s the one good selling point I’ve heard for vinyl so far.

So today we’re going to learn how to tie a shoe. I like tying shoes, I tie a lot of shoes and I think other people tie shoes too, so I’m doing a video on tying shoes.

Without further ado, let’s jump right in.

So tying shoes is really important. Lots of people tie shoes every day and so it’s something that you need to know. So in this video we’re going to talk about tying shoes. If you want to learn how tie shoes you’re in the right place! We’re talking about tying shoes.

So without further ado, let’s jump right in.

So in this video we’re going to talk about tying shoes … [5 more minutes of talking without actually giving any information whatsoever]

That user base is a drop in the ocean compared to most of reddits user base, and those people have all left already.

The comparison in this case is operating on the word half, not on the subject of the sentence:

Only half want to get married, even less [than half] want kids.

This is a contributor post, not a Forbes official article.

I read here recently that the rich people who pay attention to Forbes for investment information avoid all Forbes contributor content and focus only official article from Forbes staff.

I don’t know how true that is, but if you believe it then until a forbes staffer writes about it in an official capacity, it hasn’t actually hit Forbes.

Before tablets, parents didn’t survive.

The target being the executives who will approve the marketer’s work.

I don’t how many times in my life I’ve thought “this thing I’m doing is really cool, I should share it!” And immediately follow it up with “yeah but why would I care if anyone else sees it? I’m doing this for me, not them.”

And as time goes on I think less and less about impressing other people and just take pleasure in my own skills and creations, and let me tell you, it’s way better this way.

So the developers claim, but the users still encounter it, and the bug report stays open for 22 years … possibly more.

So what are they doing that illegal that other apps aren’t doing?

So what are they doing that illegal that other apps aren’t doing??

I really don’t know how to be any more clear with this question.

I read the article too, and those things you quoted sound to me like things every app does.

Hence my question: what is different here?

There’s not a word in this article about why this breach of privacy matters while others do not. It’s not stated whether this was in the terms of service for the app, and whether those terms were ruled against.

All kinds of apps have been selling personal information for a long time, and it’s been ruled before that it’s allowed if they have the proper legalese in the terms of service. Did this app just not have any terms of service?

Why is it a breach of privacy for this app, but other apps doing the same selling of personal data is not?

You forgot the part where we all return to poverty so the rich can stay rich in the face of climate change.

Easy fix: don’t offer support

More expensive easy fix: contract with a call center in India to do “support” for you.

“made to be less hated,”

They still want to be hated, just less.

Who’s the halfwit that came up with that line lmao

Dumb TVs are called “digital signage” now.

Caffeine is pretty well studied and it’s known that the long term health effects are nothing close to cocaine. I doubt if there was any good science back then on the long term effects of cocaine, let alone enough education for the populace to know and understand it.

However social perceptions may change anyway. What we consider as not serious may be considered much more serious in the future. For example many people get headaches or even migraines as a withdrawal symptom of caffeine, and we don’t consider a headache to be serious.

But I saw a Star Trek episode once where Picard gets a headache and it was a big deal because those had been solved for hundreds of years by that time! Turns out the ferengi were controlling his mind or something. So caffeine may be considered a serious drug in the future if it interferes with the detection of alien mind control devices.
