  • This was why I started drumming as an adult. My legs where always bouncing and I wanted to do something with it.

  • Pretty sure many of the cars sold now have a SIM card or something similar which the manufacturer pays for up front. I don't think it takes much for them to ping periodically with the information they'd like to track and this ensures they get the data.

    Still, don't connect your car to the Internet, as that could give them way more data but I doubt that that doing that alone will completely stop the tracking.

    Edit: typo

  • The great thing about this is the reward for getting so much done is more stuff to do!

  • The key is to accept that the end of consciousness is a feature of existence, and not a bug.

  • That's a good point, though I think it's also fair to say that you won't experience unending nothingness after death from that perspective, either. I can see how coming to accept that the world existed before our experience began could help one confront the world will continue to exist after our experience has ended.

  • Is the idea that the deadline has passed but it hasn't been as long as it looks since the deadline? Is the deadline coming from behind?

    I'll have to tell my boss I'm gonna be late on my next project. We gotta figure this out.

  • I learned so much from replacing things that weren't the problem. In the moment, it's such a a pain but it's taught me a lot and been helpful in the long run.

  • I was sure this was photoshopped and there was no way that was real...

    It's real. This is just unbelievable.

  • Oh dear

    Jump
  • You guys are eating?

  • I never was good at being subtle.

  • I just went with forgoing my own self care and losing my sense of self in pursuit of meeting her ever changing expectations instead of acknowledging if come to define myself be the relationship. Not sure which is better..

    Not to worry though, the papers are in the mail!

  • I absolutely love questions like this! My wife absolutely hates them. She often gets irritated when people ask questions about what you think.

    Like when our therapist asked her "How do you think your actions contribute to your own unhappiness?"

  • Audiobooks at 2x speed seemed to help me. I didn't notice the lag in the story as much.

  • Do... Do people really think it's their imagination?

  • I used to see how many "videos" I could play in my brain simultaneously and still keep track of what was happening in each. Most I was able to be satisfied with was 3.

    Hadn't ever really thought about whether other people did that or not..

  • The worse results likely refers to results for advertisers but this will impact Meta's ad revenue in the long run.

    The article cited an example with almost zero sales with CPMs of $250, which is crazy high. I'd also bet the biggest chunk of advertisers using these tools don't have sophisticated advertising strategies or resources. Many of them will probably pause these poor performing campaigns and be very restrictive with future budgets until performance improves.

    In short, Meta took a lot of money in a short time but didn't earn much money back for advertisers, so they will spend less in the future and less money make Meta sad.
