Every old person was terrified of the government determining who would live or die. So instead they decided to keep paying for the privilege of letting a for-profit insurance company to do the same thing instead

I definitely think that’s the last big item steamos is missing, a bar at the top of streaming services.

Edit, that sounded sarcastic but it wasn’t, I honestly want that, it would allow me to convert the rest of the family TV’s to steam

It’s not going to be banned. It’s a forced sale or spinoff. They’ll still have TikTok. Media just made up the term ban. It’s just that tencent has ties overseas and they don’t want the foreign influence

my stars, I may faint

I live that guaranteed there are companies like Nordstrom who are desperately trying to add this tech and some guy just makes it.

Edit: actually, thinking about it this guy is gonna get stomped on by business who are just going to steal the code. I made an issue on there asking them to add a license, if anyone feels like it a gentle nudge for them would probably be useful. I can see Macy’s or Nordstrom stealing this as soon as they catch wind.

No this is the fake “heart wrenching” side of Facebook, for your older relatives. These videos were real once, 15 years ago when we all watched the soldier come home as a surprise, but algorithms came in, monetization came in, and now anyone can just manufacture a fake moment just like that! Of course people get bored, so gotta amp it up. Not only are they home but they rose from the grave! Amazing!

And even though it’s fake it gets attention, and likes, and people say it’s fake and other people just comment “AMEN JESUS” and the algorithm promotes it, the people who made it get a few bucks, and they do it again in a week

I think they forget that people below them value their own lives. I don’t know any security guards who are willing to lay down their own lives for some CEO for moderate pay. If it’s that or continuing to live? Idk, it’s a feel good measure in my book.

So many CEOs on LinkedIn calling for more security for executives. None of them have the self awareness to think “is my company doing anything that would warrant such a response?”. Maybe stop being evil fucks?

Yeah that’s all it really says. Media made it into a ban, but it’s just that China has major influence over it and the us doesn’t want that, so they need to sell it or spin it off to an American company. Or they can shut it down, but no one is just going to set that much money on fire and walk away. The modern world I guess.

Once again the executives punish the workers, as they scramble to figure out why their products won’t sell.

Hot theory, maybe those executives should be the ones leaving, let the workers do what they do best without the limitations put in place by management.

Business continues to realize the limits of the AI hype bubble

“I just find driving more convenient. Transit always takes longer and never goes where you need it to, and with a car I get to be comfortable”

They type into their phone arguing on Facebook while sitting at the dealership waiting for their car to be ready

Doesn’t matter, there’s more than likely a callback in the url that says who it was, and now the sender knows the number is active and the user clicks on links

Holding up a giant sign that says “I CLICK ON WHATEVER BULLSHIT LINK YOU SEND ME”

Four in ten employees agree that there has been more discussion about how to implement AI/tech in their workplace than actual change.

Four out of ten people understand how business actually works

Turns out most people would actually, there have been multiple surveys done now and that’s always the winner, but then how would businesses cope?

Or you could do all of that instead of asking your friend. It’s easy, you just say “would you like to go out on a date?”. Done.

Given all of this that I’ve read, I’d be confused as hell too if I were him. You’re only planning group things which tells me you’re more interested in being friends at that point, anymore you’ve never come outright and said anything. You said he’s the shy one, so what’s holding you back?

No friends, no groups, just go over to his house already and ask him. Love does not have to be this complicated, people.

Of course they’re boomers. Car brained and survival bias in two forms there

Great, so since they’re drunk they deserve death. They deserved it because they were drunk. And looking at those two I’m sure they’ve never been drunk or stoned. Guaranteed if he was drunk and stumbling around and found himself in the street there would be some excuse for why a vehicle should have slowed down

I wonder if that’s a UI block like if it’s mentioned then throw error, or if the model itself has a block in there. From this, it looks like it’s baked in and of course they haven’t poisoned it
