The Onion has gotten to the point where its headlines are true with the satire being only in the body of the article. He has accused her of lying about having a job in the White House. He thinks he won the election so she’s not the VP

They only did that after A LOT of backlash. Their initial stance was to do nothing. This article sums it up really well:

They lost me when they refused to do anything about Kiwi Farms. Protecting privacy is one thing, facilitating hate crimes is another.

AI as a technology is fascinating and can be extremely useful, especially in places like the medical field. AI as a product in its current state is nothing more than dystopian plagiarism.

Looking through an archeological lens, sheep bone games and cult practices probably look the same. Imagine thousands of years from now, they’ll probably see like football fans as a cult.

Let me translate that.

If you get overworked at an exploitative minimum wage job, then that’s definitely on you

Don’t worry, they have DreamBerd

Booleans can be true, false or maybe. Technical info: Booleans are stored as one-and-a-half bits.

Fascism, the answer is fascism

No, you just get your entertainment from arguing with strangers on the internet (which accounts for way more emissions than F1 does)

I’m gonna sleep so well tonight knowing I get to wake up tomorrow and watch vroom vroom while you watch paint dry

Oh, so now it doesn’t all matter?

If you really don’t do anything fun that contributes to CO2 emissions, you don’t do anything fun at all. Unless you live in the woods and survive off nuts and berries, you’re doing something that contributes to worsening the atmosphere.

Then you better not live in a house, turn your lights on, use your computer, go to the grocery store, go see a movie, go to a concert, buy anything at all, travel any other way than by foot. Or you could put your effort into something that’ll actually make a difference.

The emissions from the cars themselves isn’t even 2000 tons of CO2. That’s 1/200000 of 1% of annual emissions. If you’re that concerned, you shouldn’t be on this site because the server, your computer, and your router are all adding CO2 to the atmosphere.

The emissions from 20 cars driving in circles for a few hours a week could continue until the end of humanity and still be just a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of damage the production industry has done up to this point.

I agree the environmental impacts are certainly an issue, but the emissions from the sport alone aren’t that bad, the worst is from all the travel done on private jets between locations. They’ve also done some work towards being more eco-friendly. The cars run hybrid V6s instead of V10s and by 2026 will use fully renewable biofuel. There’s also Formula E, which is an entirely electric motorsport.

There’s just some things an ICU can do that an electric motor can’t. It’s simply impossible to get the same amount of power as an F1 car from purely electric propulsion at the same weight.

The name Donald Tusk sounds like a satire between Donald Trump and Elon Musk

I feel like a more accurate (though much less catchy) name for this community would be !fuckcarcentricsociety. Cars are awesome! They’re fun to drive, feats of engineering, and in the right conditions like a rollercoaster without tracks. They just fucking suck when they’re practically required to live. I’m as big a proponent for public transit, you shouldn’t need a car to get to your job or grocery store, but you can’t look at something like F1 and say that’s not exhilarating.

Patreon takes a cut of your money and gives the rest to the creator. Youtube does the same thing with Premium, plus creators receive a higher rpm from Premium viewers than they do from ads. And people left Reddit because they stopped supporting 3rd party apps. Youtube never supported 3rd party apps, plus there’s no suitable alternative to leave Youtube for.

Also, I’m not completely fine with Youtube Premium, but the pros outweigh the cons enough for me to justify paying for it.

Do I hate giving money to Google? Yes. Do I watch 6+ hours of Youtube a day? Also yes. I almost always have something playing in the background throughout my day, so it’s the one service I’m ok paying for and I don’t have to worry about it breaking like I would with other frontends.

This is exactly why we should have 4 day work weeks. Especially when you replace “shop” with “doctor’s office”

Tasker is the reason Android is so much better than iOS
