  • Why is the herd mentality so common on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • Pretty much this. We have strong beliefs. Strong enough to leave a popular, functional platform for ideological reasons.

  • Kids

    Jump

  • There are times my kids want to talk about Roblox/YouTube stuff that I'm not interested or I dislike. But I listen, because I'm a parent and I want my rugrats to share their interests with me.

    But yeah, I get where this comic is coming from.

  • They know what they want; they just don't know how to spell it

    Jump

  • I think you're right about the Liberal thing. It seems like the Conservatives have morphed into a regional party tied to Albertan and rural identity.

  • They know what they want; they just don't know how to spell it

    Jump

  • If funded by the federal or New Brunswick governments, maybe. Happily, I don't think either entity has a hand in this.

  • They know what they want; they just don't know how to spell it

    Jump

  • Vocally. They state that they see what Quebec has gotten by threatening independence and they want the same.

    It's safe to argue that what they've gotten was mostly due to agreements signed before Canada was created, but that isn't how the Albertan separatists see it.

  • They know what they want; they just don't know how to spell it

    Jump

  • I think they are harkening back to a golden age where they felt like their rights weren't being trampled by Ottawa. I'm not sure that time ever existed, and I'm not sure that their rights are being trampled, but that's not the point.

    Similarly, they seem like the kind of people who believe they're mavericks in a world of sheeple, so it could also be saying "don't let yourself be sheeplified".

  • Mine is too coooollddd

    Jump

  • You made the right choice.

  • Mine is too coooollddd

    Jump

  • Do it! I bought cutlery I liked years ago. It's so nice to like the feel of something I use two or three times a day.

  • The Toronto Police Has Been a Rogue Agency for Too Long. Rein Them In.

    Jump

  • I just listened to the episode. It's really interesting to hear how they've defended themselves over the decades by attacking reformers.

  • What would be needed for a new video hosting service to overtake YouTube?

    Jump

  • YouTube is popular because it gives creators a way to get paid. So a new service would need to offer some of that.

  • Transnational repression: Hong Kong diaspora groups raise concerns over RCMP-China Ministry of Public Security MoU

    Jump

  • Keeping the text secret is pretty wild.

  • Use the garden hose like a civilized human being

    Jump

  • That makes a lot of sense. Less funny tho.

  • Why some Canadian companies are turning their workers into owners instead of selling to the U.S.

    Jump

  • The lede is buried:

    For the companies considering becoming an EOT, time is of the essence. The federal government offers a tax break for owners who sell their businesses to employees, but the incentive runs out at the end of this year.

    Without the tax incentive, the future of EOTs in Canada is uncertain.

    This kind of ownership model sounds awesome. It's too bad the feds are killing the incentive.

  • Classical Growth

    Jump

  • That's an incorrect opinion on Lemmy

  • Chatbots Make Terrible Doctors, New Study Finds

    Jump

  • It looks like the LLMs weren't trained for medical tasks. The study would be more interesting if it had been run on something built for the task.

  • Never!

    Jump

  • I'm here for the dirty Dennis content

  • Hard-braking events as indicators of road segment crash risk

    Jump

  • That is interesting. I wonder if they're making the data public as part of the study. 😬

  • ... why?

    Jump

  • Subjectively, a stop light or stop sign must feel like an eternity for this guy. Or conversations, for that matter.

  • Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments

    Jump

  • tl;dr there's a bunch of base64-encoded PDFs in the Epstein emails. Buddy had a hard time extracting them because the files are exported as images and the one and ell characters are almost indistinguishable.

    Dude eventually managed to distinguish them. 🤷‍♂️
