  • All liquids and gels are edible all the time, no way you can't fit a liquid or gel of all things down your esophagus. Some just have unwanted "side effects" on your body after it's eaten. Like mercury.

  • How is it that no CEO sees the writing on the wall and goes "you know what? Everyone's sick of AI and it's a great opportunity for PR if we just said we're NOT going to integrate AI anytime soon."

    That will actually differentiate your company from the sea of "embracing AI as the future" everyone else is doing. Especially for an open source company, surely they've done user demographic studies and realized that they have more anti-AI users than most mainstream software, why not cater to them when no one else is, and secure their good will?

  • Late night infomercials with high pressure sales tactics are where the real innovation is!

  • I submit that this happened not because Australia recognizes Palestine, but that it doesn't recognize Palestine in all but pointless words. If Palestine was actually recognized as an independent country on the world stage this wouldn't have happened.

    Though whoever feels the need to shoot random people partying on a beach is obviously not right in the head so there's also a chance they would have just picked something else as their reason.

  • Don't Christians think Jews are going to hell? And they're only using Israel to bring about the end times in which their God descends and personally sends all non-Christians to hell?

    How antisemitic of Israel to allow these heritics to slander Judaism.

  • Words have no meaning anymore.

    This is the post language era.

  • Also, "Hamas kills trans people which is why we should let Israel kill everyone instead, including the trans people."

  • As a rule of thumb, don't trust the packaging when it's going out of its way to assure you it won't cause some negative side effect. They have a massive conflict of interest because they want you to buy it, and more importantly they legally don't have to actually prove it's factual, the burden is on you the consumer to sue them and prove they're lying in court if you think that's the case, and they're well aware the vast majority of people don't have the time or resources to do that.

    If an online source is telling you it will cause that side effect, I'd be inclined trust that more (assuming the site is reputable and they're not trying to promote a different product).

  • My dog chewed a plastic bag containing the special proprietary cables for a computer display/input switch. I think she just wanted the bag and the cables were collateral damage, because she's never chewed cables on their own before or since.

    They refuse to sell the cables separately so it made the device itself useless unless I buy another one for like $100. Ended up not bothering and giving up on having a peripheral switch because I refuse to give them that much money again just because a $10 set of cables broke and reward their shitty business practices. I just manually switch the actual display and USB cables when I want to control another computer.

    Also blew my mind just how strong a bite force even a small breed dog has. She totally crushed the metal casing surrounding the plug and shattered the plastic molding in the less than one minute she had it. I can't even do that with my teeth (then again I've never tried).

  • I prefer Ghost of Christmas Imperative.

    "Stop exploiting workers you bourgeois piece of shit."

    Or for the functional programming enjoyers, Ghost of Christmas Declarative. He doesn't tell you what to do, he just passive aggressively defines what you should be.

  • Because human offspring are so damn needy and take so long to mature.

  • How ACAB works (for nerds):

     
            public abstract class Bastard {}
    
        private interface DictatorshipOfTheBourgeoisie {}
    
        private class Cop extends Bastard implements DictatorshipOfTheBourgeoisie {}
      
  • Induced demand also applies to social media. Having a dedicated community for something can cause people who had not thought to post something (because there was no dedicated community for it and they don't want to risk putting it in a community where it doesn't fit) to post.

    Related, I really think we could use a /c/whatever community, for creative works and posts that don't fit into any existing communities. It will also serve as a good place to assess when a community should be created, since you can just see what a lot of people are posting.

  • I take pictures of the architecture around me.

    The mundane stuff that no one bothers to document and won't make it into historical architecture books.

    I have over a hundred gigabytes of liminal space photos I'm debating whether I should share on Lemmy or not.

  • They only give a shit because the US is threatening to take their colony away from them.

    Pot calling the kettle blackDanes calling the Americans white.

  • Sealed in batteries on smartphones and Surface tablets.

    The device will eventually reach a point where it won't even boot (or shuts down randomly) when plugged in because the charger connection isn't actually wired to power the main board without going through the battery first (most smartphones) or the device consumes more power than the port is designed to deliver (Surface).
