At least one yacht out of how many does maybe some research, sorry dude, but that is a long stretch.

Fully agree.

Unfortunatly though, apps like that are like crack (The Office jokes incoming…?). And if you take that away the first response isn’t happiness, but the opposite and they’ll go for the next best drug, maybe meth.

What if he doesn’t have any friends beside himself

Didn’t they test ads on the lockscreen or something? Yes, they did. Completely disqualifies them for the future for me.

I couldn’t believe it is real, but it is!

Not even Qatar got that far.

If you are person expecting others to help you with that, then sorry, you’re weird. It is always nice if someone just does and yes, often someone does help, doesn’t matter of they don’t acknowledge your existence or strike up a friendly chat.

I’d never willingly get myself into a situation thinking, “eh, I’ll be screwed if no one comes to my help, but someone surely will”.

I mean, yes, very likely. But what kind of a study is this? They surveyed a bit over 2500 users and then got results like:

13% had witnessed companies actively manipulating public opinion on the platform.

Which is arguably very difficult to detect if done well. A lot you just suspect that it has to be behind what you are reading, but it is not like someone will do a Scooby-Doo uncovering scene, ah it has always been corpo X behind this!

What they polled instead is how many users think they are able to spot something like this.

And I am not saying this to argue against companies manipulating reddit posts and comments. I’d argue the number is far higher than 10-15% of posts and this survey is not able to get to that.

Also, the survey is from 2018. It is bound to be much higher now anyways.

You can still download retracted papers though.

Sure, I’ll get you started:

First of May 1956

Third of November 1973

Tenth of February 1968

It sounds like what you said is a joke, but just wanted to underline that this has even been subject to scientific study, e.g. mentioned here: https://theconversation.com/danish-children-struggle-to-learn-their-vowel-filled-language-and-this-changes-how-adult-danes-interact-161143

I feel thats two different things though. You can be an asshole about European union but still dislike Trumps antics.

You’re in this picture and I don’t like it

Geez, that frickin’ hype language.

"We… (dramatic pause, drum roll)… don’t know their end goal!!!”

”What they are saying, howeverrrrrr, we just don’t know"

Like its a harmful alien lifeform invading us. I get it, you want science to be exciting for the broad public but damn, this just sounds idiotic. It is a new structure that hasn’t been found before, we don’t know how it regulates anything and they are looking into that. I am sure you can come up with something decent halfway between what I wrote and what the article says.

Could it be a “slam” though?

Did… they all pay the billion dollars to join?

Seriously? How has no one suggested Untitled Goose Game or did I miss it? It is frigging hilarious and if you both like humor and fooling around as a mischievous goose, it is perfect! I played it with my 7 year old and we had tons of fun, plus the ending was the cherry on top!

Edit: also, similarly hilarious but a bit more stressful to play, Pizza Possum, my kid was and is nornally absolutely not into fast-paced gaming, but this one was an expection and is also hilarious to play together and it was a blast collecting all the gadgets. We still come back to both games regularly.

He just has to adopt the shittiest views possible. So predictable. Must be his kink or something.

I had one and I loved it… because I put linux on it, worked so much better.

Fake and gay, to get to that water Vader would have to cross a beach full of sand which is rough and coarse and gets everywhere!
