  • This is a real "AI" ad from the US government about the end of the mandatory use of the auto start-stop.

  • It's amazing how soulless things are when you take humans out of the equation

  • Dumped by '''Feminist AI'''. The brain rot is measurable and terrifying.

  • Is it really dangerous to fall sleep in the bath?

  • It's a battle of evolution: we lost our ability to do that, but have a decent reflex to catch ourselves from danger. It's why I don't fall off a bed. Even when that bed is a hammock on top of a tree.

  • Cool! I'm not entirely sure because I know little about it, but you may have actually brought up a valid point! It's a shame we had to climb a mountain of snark and smartassery to get to that possibility.

  • Bread mattress: so my sleepy ass can partially eat it, as I'm in the lengthy process of waking up (possibly improving efficiency)

  • Well, that's a brand new sentence!

  • I feel like bread's limited shelf life, and all the nasties that accumulate in a normal mattress from normal use, would make this idea fucking disgusting. Just leave a loaf of bread on your nightstand like a normal person.

  • I think a lot of the laid-off staff from the Washington Post should start a news cooperative. Seriously!

    Jump

  • When the Denver Post got bought out by a private equity company (you know how that goes), a bunch of journalists from there got together to create the Colorado Sun. It operates on a model similar to NPR/PBS, except federal/Corporation for Public Broadcasting funding was never a thing to begin with.

    I'm not sure how well it's working, but well enough that they're still around after several years!

  • The big difference being that one thing being owned is completely inanimate, and the other is a literal human being against their will 🤷‍♂️

  • Clearly you are much smarter than myself. Can you tell me why renting land/a home is different than any other object that can be owned? Obviously shelter is a greater need than a chainsaw I could rent at Home Depot, but I thought the basic concepts should still apply?

    And again, maybe I'm not smart enough to understand what you're saying, but it seems like land owners (or "speculators", if that's the correct term now 🤷‍♂️) prohibit access to everyone except for tenants, and tenants instead have rights to use that property?

  • As mentioned elsewhere, owning isn't necessarily for everyone.

  • What service does the land speculator provide to the tenant?

    The ability to live somewhere that otherwise would have been reversed?

    I am lucky enough to be able to own a home. I can live here, and nobody else. But if I decided to rent my home out and they paid me rent, they could live here instead!

  • I suppose, but if you want to keep the nuance, the kid is a teenage girl, Jeremy is the boyfriend, and Jacob is hella gay and the parents have said they don't care. One kid explicitly not having a condition (the second bill specifically said it's not subject to those conditions) doesn't mean the other magically went away

  • To my understanding (not saying I agree with it, just trying to make the logic understood for awareness)...

    • Congress passed a law allocating funding, but also requiring access for Congressional inspections without notice
    • More funding was later allocated, and it explicitly was not conditioned on access for inspections
    • Noem took that to mean allowing inspections without notice were no longer required, despite the initial funding with the requirement still being in place

  • I think CNBC's ticker is for stock prices, whereas Fox and CNN are for news headlines (although Fox will do several pieces for the same story, essentially putting a miniature article in a ticker)
