Hehe, at least there’s some good news for my students in my interventions class-- a new option for their open ended write up assignment just dropped.

It’s a good teachable moment for psych students wanting to better understand just why RFK Jr is so full of shit, without it even being framed in a partisan thing; literally we teach correlation isn’t causation, as well as the current literature on autism (genetic predispositions, etc).

Any chance to teach critical thinking to young people is a good thing.

Ah yes, the great Armenian-Cambodian war. Nearly sparked WW3 when they brought in Bolivia and Liberia into the mix, who as we all know, have beef with one another.

/s for those who think these are baltic states or something.

Probably because of his ethnicity, disposition, and general… loserness, I had assumed he sounded something like Aziz Ansari doing a bit about a whinny FBI director.

Wow, now that’s a not-the-onion post for sure, yikes.

Oddly, not the first time people did trashy shit on the White House lawn. Look up Andrew Jacksons fucking hillbilly BBQs— just as racist, too!

Look up False Consensus Bias. Humans naturally assume they’re in the majority, this just adds a layer of confirmation bias to that mix, lol.

Actually they did put a real telephoto lens in it, which I think is a real zoom up to 5x? But yes, digital zoom is most things.

I’m glad they let you take that photo from… your prison cell?

Joking, very impressed how clear that text is.

For people without that phone, context why that’s silly. The Google Pixel 10 does have an impressive telephoto lens (for a phone) of about 110mm equivalence, although it’s nowhere near what we’re seeing here.

What’s not impressive is its gimmick: anything above 30x is actually AI enhanced up to 100x. The photo you shared likely used that enhanced feature to unblur, like text. You really really wanna piss off some people with this comment, lol.

He’s an ass who thinks everyone is out to get him, but as your friendly Internet psychologist I do want to remind you all that it’s ok to have self affirmations.

I’m not sure Kash is even doing it right, though lol

Ugh, not to defend Newsom since he helped create the mess, but a compromise bill is probably a result of CA being in a pretty harsh deficit going back a few years. I imagine the current state in the US only makes that worse, especially if you’re banking on clean energy investments.

I prefer to not bloat my gaming experience anymore then I have to, and I already get get annoyed when I’m playing on Windows and haven’t completely disabled that said Xbox game bar.

I think my line stops with in game overlays. Steam and most emulators have that, and that’s kinda fine to me (adds to the console feel). I just don’t want AI draining my resources as I’m playing, that’s asinine, and MS doubly so since they’re a redundant layer on top of my overlays.

Idk, I already stopped caring enough to make jokes about it as I feel like it’s already old news. Then again, I was making fun of the right wing reaction last night, so I guess that counts.

Huh, feels like a Mandela effect but only because we’re all just echoing each other’s memes. Lol

Hyperbole, much? What a bananas way to say you like a fun remake of a relatively solid JRPG.

Like 98% of people had no idea (guessing), which I think is why a big % are not sure how to mourn or laugh. They do recognize the Change My Mind meme and sometimes Toilet Paper USA though.

Lemmy would likely have a different % than typical though. And even then, you always will see a comment like “don’t use that meme, he’s an asshole” and a bunch of TILs.

That is correct. Actually an economist on NPR suggested that the main theory is that access to those workers tends enable some places (in this case the Hyundai plant) to open more locations since they can scale better.

That’s not to say you can have zero rules, but it doesn’t historically come at a cost the same way off shoring does (and it’s usually still more expense than offshoring, though for manufacturing that’s getting obvious hiccups).

Or the n64 cash grab game! (That I actually kinda liked)

Should play on their cognitive dissonance, but that assumes they have enough conscious thought to hold two pieces of conflicting thoughts at the same time.

Actually his name got dropped kinda recently, though I forget the context. Like last week on NPR.

Oh, this was on the news here. Apparently it’s an interesting bedfellows case where parties don’t matter so much at location. Not even city vs rural, but more complex than that.

So. Cal is generally on the side against this bill, although aside from NIMBYS, I’m not really sure why. We need it more than anyone else, frankly.
