Yeah, I’m here for a reason. It takes a lot of blocking/filtering too. But the reason I am here is my desire for “algorithmic complacency”. I like to spend some time mentally wandering.

I’m so glad this was algorithmically recommended. Thanks lemmings!
Aye! Standard front loading washer loads per week would be another good one.
Yeah my microwave operates on a timer, not a clock
I’m all for shitting on Elon, but it seems premature to declare the issue “officially” settled. Who’s the official anyway? This smells to me like enshittification of the internet, of journalism, and maybe even rational thought.
5 deaths from presumably 3 vehicles ablaze. The one which killed 3 of the people (60% for those who love statistics), the main battery pack did not catch fire. So, was it smoking, or something else?
Sure you can use statistics to say it has a higher fire rate than the Pinto. But without knowing the root cause of each fire, it cannot be deduced whether we should expect the rate to continue. I would suspect it should end up similar to other Teslas, unless a specific design flaw is identified. Another thing to keep in mind is that Tesla changes production on the fly, so if there is a design flaw, it may not persist into the next units.
Finally, the Cybertruck is stupid and I hope it fails. But that’s just like, my opinion.
I’ve never seen an Olympic swimming pool. And even if I had, I wouldn’t have a sense for its volume unless it was empty. Preferred units for water volumes are million acre feet or cubic kilometers annually. Or cubic feet per second or cubic meters per second. Or if you really want to relate to the layperson, I also accept cubic kegs per fortnight.
If somebody projects a movie onto a public wall, is it illegal to watch it without paying?
Just give us the confidence interval and stop updating. We will know better in January 2029 once it has passed by and been tugged by our gravity and the moons.
Bitterness is like swallowing a poison pill and expecting the other person to die
I do use soap but not anti bacterial soap, just dr bronners. But I really scratch with my finger nails. Anyway I don’t wear deodorant. I don’t smell until 2-3 days without a shower.
This was a short read.
Shrinking sizes is only part of it. Every ingredient/component is getting cheaper, less durable, less nutritious. Some companies try to offer higher quality but most people can’t afford it.
