I asked my alter ego whether that definition of socialism was right and he said that I should ask my other alter ego, who said that this looks shopped, but couldn't confirm for some reason, so he went on to ask one of his sockpuppet imaginary friends whether this was true and came back with a slap to my face.

So, there you have it, slap on my face/true

You feel yes about this

I wonder what was Hamas' plan to carry out the attack. I'm sure they fully expected Israel to go all out against the Palestinian people, but they probably misjudged how much Israel would care about or be held back by the international reaction. I guess bibi realized that, since none of the western leaders actually cares, he's free to raze everything (like the preemptive attacks on the new Syrian govt)

It now costs $1 to buy everything that a billionaire owns

True, it should not matter, but it did. Because of that, it's perfectly valid to ask what it was and why it triggered the automated security response.

I'd argue that Microsoft is worse than its users

One fungus will eventually manage to mind control the crabs, like some already do with ants.

So why do companies keep racing to make the thinnest phones?

Because Steve Jobs' ghost still haunts and demands all designs to be as anti consumer as possible

4.7" screen is the ideal size for me. Big enough to see anything clearly, small enough that I can comfortably reach anything in the screen with one hand

The game is a very simple and all about territory control. A common complaint is exactly that it's too simple. Does anyone know about custom rules or things that can give more variety to the game, without necessarily making it too complex?

 

The best way to understand is looking at it like a game

People that want to inform others need to explain stuff, sometimes more thoroughly than reasonably needed, which takes, say, 50 energy per answer. They also need people to understand what's being informed, this is their "win condition"

Bullshitters just need to spam shit, never need to check sources, never need to be truthful and will use all sorts of logical fallacies when confronted. It takes 1 energy to start, 1 energy to spread AND they can convince others to spread it further for them. They don't want to inform, they want to get an immediate reaction, which is often of anger towards a "culprit". Their win condition is reach + emotional reaction.

Even worse, bullshitters will hypocritically pile up on anyone that they judge to not be playing "by the rules", since they have complete disregard for rules that don't benefit them.

I've got a number of these cups in a variety of sizes, but I can't figure what kind of scenery to do with them. I'd like some ideas, both fantasy and futuristic, whether as blogs, pictures or videos.

 

I mean, you take one look at Greek statues and Roman busts and you realize that people figured how to aim for realism, at least when it came to the human body and faces, over 2000 years ago.

Yet, unlike sculpture, paintings and drawings remained, uh, "immature" for centuries afterwards (to my limited knowledge, it was the Italian Renaissance that started making realistic paintings). Why?

 

Given how harder it's becoming to tell apart AI slop from something made by a human (videos, photos, text), and how much scammers and other criminals are piling up on the tech, I'm thinking this will be the silver lining, making some people pay more attention to real life and finally accept the maxim "Don't believe everything you see on the internet"
