iirc, there were some statements from companies (Microsoft?) that we won’t have to worry about AI’s effect on climate change because it’ll also come up with the solutions

Larpers larping as other larpers, the dork layers run deep…
Ah, they’re digging their own graves!
Saw this like three times before I realized. Am dumb
I imagine this is the kind of sentiment that really scares the Israeli government and probably the people of Israel. Most people didn’t really care before but now everyone has an opinion on Israel and it’s generally not good. Potential political isolation aside, the social isolation’s gonna be a big problem for them too.

A friend in high school made nude drawings of another mutual friend. It was weird he showed me but he was generally an artsy guy and I knew he was REALLY into this girl and it was kind of in the context of showing he his art work. I reconnected with the girl years later and talked about this and while she said it was weird she didn’t really think much of it. Rather, the creepy part to her was that he showed people.
I don’t think we can stop horny teens from making horny content about their classmates, heck, I know multiple girls who wrote erotic stories featuring classmates. The sharing (and realism) is what turns the creepy but kind of understandable teenage behavior into something we need to deal with
After trying a search, opened Lemmy to see if it was my connection, immediately see this meme. Thanks for the troubleshooting confirmation Lemmy
That’s exactly how I think of it, so strange someone downvoted you
Yup! They did a remake in 2020, never watched it myself cause Hulu but I’ve heard some good things about it.
You’re having trouble managing all your usernames and passwords? Have you tried another app to manage all of them? /s (but also I do like my password manager)
Wanted to look up the account and see for myself and apparently he’s parodying NFT bros. A bit disappointed…
On March 29th, 2024, following the post’s virality, Twitter user @AdamBumas[6] was among many who reported that @vydamos’ post was not sincere and that he was poking fun at other NFT holders who were expressing anger at the plummeting value of their apes at the time.

Makes sense, we know how much the US likes to spread democracy
Oh wow! and they’re still having annual meetings https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Family
I feel like we’re all already moved on from this discussion, but I JUST came across mention of the original anti-vax movement and hippies on “Some More News” (aka Cody’s Showdy), felt it was interesting to run into a day after this discussion: https://youtu.be/nrsysN_LBoo?si=rqEEZCGLQ8wH2GNV&t=2781 (comes up at 46:21 in case the time stamp doesn’t work).
I might be wrong but I always associated hippies with left-leaning, liberal politics. And I’m not sure where the association between the left and the anti-vax movement came from but I know it was a thing that was frequently made fun of. I even remember catching a Simpson’s episode where they went somewhere and commented on how progressive/liberal it was (forget the specific word), then Marge asked a random woman if she vaccinated her kids and she responded “of course” then Marge said “and not TOO liberal”.
Now that I think about it, maybe the political association of the original anti-vax movement was manufactured?
The original anti-vax movement was always weird to me, the issue screams “muh freedums” so I always found it strange that it came from the left. I guess it goes into the same box as all the hippy dippy wellness stuff, which does have some things like meditation that turn out to have real benefits, but there are just some people who take to all that really strongly without evidence.
Anti-intellectualism I always considered a right leaning thing, like, you always hear republicans saying universities are tools of left-wing indoctrination and not the other way around? But I suppose hippies had that “don’t trust the man” thing going on.
Are hippies how people’s idea of the far left formed? My understanding is the whole hippy movement, while memorable, was quite short lived?
This makes a lot of sense to me, the US has a good long history of being anti-communist so anything moving close to that has been villanized to the point that any kind of socialist idea faces push back and true leftist views go under-represented. It does feel like the overall movement in the US has been to the right though, but that could be my own recency bias.
As someone who struggled with analog clocks into my twenties, being able to see the hands move gives me a better sense of time passing and I remember reading stuff that supported that. I have a better sense how much time I have left for something looking at analog vs digital basically and it’s a fairly common experience apparently
