I'm probably not the first to point this out, and it's minor in comparison to everything else that administration is doing, but the wording is so insincere?

His heart goes out to all the Christians who loved Pope Francis, but he's not including himself in that or anyone else that wasn't Christian but still cared about him? A thoughts and prayers tweet would've been less awkward.

That's actually a valid point. I guess for me personally, I have a line somewhere between using a meme template (especially when it's actually used in such a relevant manner) over typing "Hey ChatGPT, make a meme about how a TV presenter says autistic people will never pay taxes with an autistic child watching, and in the next pane have said autistic child dance around happily with money flying around in the background"

That being said, that line is only of my personal preference and isn't really based on a hard logical rule.

To actually answer your question, it's likely this dinghy has an aluminum floor or structure, and that 'bollard' would be an anchor tie-off point.

I wouldn't know much more than that and I'm sure I've used some terms wrong, I just know that my father's Naiad dinghy is built this way.

The most egregious thing with pretty much all the AI memes I've seen so far has to be that it's not even that hard to find (or heck, piece images together to make) a meme template that would have worked with 5 minutes of effort.

It's nothing but fake eyecandy for a mediocre joke.

And what's the insinuation here, given that being told the instance admin is a woman your response was "That explains a lot"

I'm sure you get asked this a lot, but why is your username backwards?

I got absolutely fooled by a tech YouTuber posting that Microsoft added OneDrive ads to the blue screen, so it felt good to get got for once.

However with real life news, I tend to agree with you. The distinction between satire and real life is getting ever more minuscule

This happens on the Google side of the fence as well - this article immediately came to mind.

I'm glad I started self hosting so I still have a "cloud" convenience while still owning all my data and being the sole person responsible for it.

Yeah, completely agree. Taking a photo of a TV screen showing the headline is just lazy.

Here I was thinking this was satire. Then I actually searched it up (source: CNN) and wtf?!

I really want to see what the bullshit looks like - shame the article doesn't actually show a sample, guess I'd have to make my browser look like an AI crawler
