People’s main gripe with it is that a huge percentage of plastic has traditionally just been separated and then would either still end up in a landfill or sent to China or wherever to recycle. I don’t know however how much of a case that is still.

I don’t see it mention it doing anything by itself? This is just an overblown aditional context menu action from inbuilt Windows apps, nothing special. Same thing as “Open Folder in VS Code”.

If they’re going to attack a NATO member (humongous if), it definitely isn’t going to be Finland. It’s gonna be one of the Baltic states.

I mean I guess it makes some sense. Linux Subsystem for Windows to the uninitiated might sound like it “comes from the Linux brand”, whilst Windows Subsystem for Linux sounds more like its made by Windows.

Have you experienced a battery life hit when using the transformer tuning feature? It warns that it has a major impact so that’s why I didn’t turn it on.

Personally, couldn’t care less. I always disable fast charging and have been charging my phone at 5W for forever now without issue.

Friggin hate how locked down the Quest is, you basically can’t do anything with it.

I mean AR was a major selling point of the Quest 3

Ok but that’s kinda shifting goalposts. My point was that the vast majority of Europe doesn’t artificially add fluoride into water, probably not without reason. Even then, just 3% of French people receive naturally fluoridated water, for Germany its < 1%, Italy also by the sound of the article probably <1%, Spain is 10%. It doesn’t give information about natural fluoridation levels in Croatia but it’s probably at the same levels and I can attest to the fact we don’t have a cavity epidemic.

Interestingly it also notes this in the article:

In the GDR (East Germany) in the late 1980s, about 3.4 million people (20%) were receiving water with added fluoride… A fluoride cessation study found that consistent with a previously observed population-wide phenomenon that the rate of cavities continued to drop after the fluoride concentration in water fell from the augmented 1.0 ppm to its natural level below 0.2 ppm. Water fluoridation was discontinued after the German reunification although still exists on some US military bases.

My point is that I think it doesn’t really matter whether you fluoridate water or not and that it’s fine to be skeptical of it when the benefits in today’s day and age are minor and there might be potential drawbacks.

Africa, the Middle East, and Russia

And, like, about 98% of the population of Europe…

I hate most of what Trump and his cronies do, but from what I’ve seen fluoridating water has meager benefits in today’s day and age with fluoridated toothpaste, whilst potentially having side-effects according to a few newer studies. Personally, it’s whatever in my opinion, I’d wait for more conclusive studies that prove whether it’s worth it or not, but I also don’t think it’s a big deal if it’s stopped.

It seems that Google just gave them back the permission, 2 days after they publicly complained about it and after 6 months of ignoring it. What scumbags.

That sounds nice but oof 4% turnout.

Oh god, same for half of these, just gave me PTSD

I higly doubt they generate a custom ad per viewer, it’s probably per show which can be re-used.

Same, but I actually kinda like it. Looking at the old one it does kinda look dated to me. Design trends change every so often, maybe it’s time to go back to more fancy things.

No, kutomjer.

I’m not saying this is something that should be used to crank out slop to sell as posters or paintings or idk. I’m saying it can help e.g. indie devs, people making random powerpoints, making a customised meme, stuff where the art isn’t the main point but is sometimes still necessary.

I don’t feel like that’s actually an argument against it. Why would everyone need to learn to draw? Why if I need some random background asset or prop should I spend months or years learning to do something I don’t enjoy? The alternative is to pay an artist, but in many cases it literally doesn’t make sense to waste that kind of money on a trivial thing. It can have its uses.

I’m at a loss

Look at these cute bastards, how can you not love them.
