They’ve all been shit, but there’s a mechanism to get rid of them, which, in theory, is a good thing?

There is no evidence of causation

This is a grave. Leave them there! What will we do with 476 whale ghosts, huh? It’s going to be absolute carnage

Cold brew

Many teammates were running roughly double that distance. Viewed purely through the numbers, the player appeared to be underperforming. But when coaches reviewed the footage, they discovered something entirely different.

“This specific player was always in the right spot in the perfect tactical position,” says Passos. “He was a very efficient player.”

Wdyk data driven is stupid

The damage is done in the UK. The regulation needs to be written with privacy first, or it will undoubtedly be taken advantage of by bad actors. To think anything else is possible under capitalism is dangerously stupid.

Australia’s social media ban – is it working?

Obviously regulation has been and is always better than prohibition. Prohibition is a lazy “quick win” political move and always has been.

The idiocy of fascism. First they convinced the scared racists, then the scared parents, who will be left to stand for up for our internet freedoms

This is nonsense. “Social networks” started off as homebrew unregulated unmoderated forums, and there’s arguably more ways than ever to spin up your own. This is what kids will do if we ban rather than regulate. It’s literally the same for every prohibition.

People are arguing that these measures are not only myopic and pointless, but they are dangerously stupid to support wrt government overreach and surveillance. And that affects everyone, especially the children they are so keen on “protecting” right now.

Wrong

So much of our energy is now spent fighting engagement bait, the constant assault is exhausting (apologies for baiting an interaction)

There are innumerable far more dangerous things we teach them to protect themselves from. Which who knows could come in handy once they turn 16

Username checks out

We must protect the sausages with the Sausage Safety Act!

But my phone has GLONASS too?

Jesus if my oven got to 425 it would cook pizza in seconds

I think they are referring to camera-blinding IR lights

Can’t tap just scroll

These men. The sin was not cumming on the ground, you idiots, or using his (careful grammar) dead brother’s wife as an onahole (super twisted to use this as analogous to masturbating)…

But greed! For in doing so, inheriting for himself in preference of his brother’s wife and her potential offspring!

It’s all BS, but still, how.

The massive problem with this ritualised csa is that it is deliberately conscripting people who aren’t that way inclined to participate to benefit the depravities of a few and presumably provide blackmail powers. This is vastly different from covering up for rogue individuals in power dynamic, it is deliberately much more damaging to everyone involved, even normalised, and it provides extremely strong obedience. There is a presumption of no possible outside authority in this scenario by those involved, by design. I would hope that this is unusual at this level of seniority within a culture, but I have my doubts.

Reminds me I had a WanKer Kellogg’s breakfast today. Poor birds affected by this culture.

OTOH TIL “onanism” what a fun word.
