The hole in the ozone layer was actually very serious and a global effort allowed it to recover. Y2K WAS actually a serious problem and people worked countless hours to make sure nobody even noticed. Air and water pollution was catastrophic in many places and incredible effort reversed that damage.

always so funny to me when people are like β€œhow am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. β€œwhy did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

the way ao3 is free, has no ads, and doesn't obey some evil corporate agenda to push certain content over others. it's the last truly good experience you get online these days.

Panel 1: In december the under 16 ban went into affect Discord mandated age verification. Between Face-scan and providing a photo ID, I thought I was safe with a scan
Panel 2: My account was insta-suspended in under a minute, I am over 30 years old and it identified me as under 13
Panel 3: Discord gave me an ultimatum:
give them a photo of me holding my ID or never use my
account again
Panel 4: I tried arguing I feared for my privacy; they have leaked ID before, I tried arguing I'VE BEEN PAYING THEM FOR 8 YEARS. They didn't listen
Panel 5: I couldn't talk to most of my overseas friends for a month
Panel 6: Looking for advice online: Turns out victims of the UK/AUS ban had it better than the norm; at least a person saw my complaints. Most suspension tickets are auto declined by bots; I cannot envision Discord scaling this for worldwide fairly
Panel 7: I eventually complied, I'm pretty luck;
I could get away with an expired license
Panel 8: Currently discord is being hammered by people cancelling
nitro subscriptions, I'd cancel mine if they hadn't had done it for me already
Panel 9: my advice is this: Ensure Discord isn't your only point of contact with your friends

sometimes a halloween skeleton just kinda hangs around until xmas and you give him a little xmas decoration. and you take down the xmas stuff but forget about the skeleton and easter approaches and you give him a little easter decoration. and before you notice you have a permanent skeleton roommate

"Ladder" and "stepladder" are two separate words in Japanese (Hashigo and Kyatatsu) but in English, one contains the other.

I don't know if this makes the "ladder or stepladder" nitpick from Ace Attorney funnier in English or Japanese.

Hello Tim Cook I worked at Tumblr when you gave us 48 hours to get rid of all the consenting, adult boobs. Up all night at your whim, out of the blue. But you're still cool with Twitter and its CSAM and revenge porn and whatever the fuck this is? Why do you even HAVE guidelines?

drawing: Picard and Q from Star Trek TNG (specifically from the fanfic Promised Land) on stage, Picard singing, Q on the mandolin. They both wear white cowboy hats, white jackets, white shirts and black pants. Q has long hair and one visible golden earring.

drawing: Q is holding a white Gretsch hollow-body electric guitar, wearing a transparent black shirt and short leather shorts over sparkling leggings (after Martin Gore of Depeche Mode). Picard smacks his butt and says "engage" with a crooked smile. He is wearing a black pinstriped waistcoat with nothing underneath and a pair of black pants (after Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode) and holds a Telecaster Thinline.

maybe it's just me, but 80% of the icons in my taskbar being blue with some white sprinkled in (and not a lot of variation in shapes, either) is something i genuinely struggle with when trying to change between programs. please, there ARE other colors you can use

None of the examples in this article are β€œrestarting the world’s idea machine.” They are AI tools helping scientists automate rote or routine tasks.

the faux-AI evangelists see the artistic process as a race to get to a finished product, instead of something valuable in itself. the process is where you develop those skills you don't have yet, it cannot be skipped, it is where the art happens
