Probably not. Reddit post from four years ago has this image, and that’s from before AI was good enough to do fingers. https://www.reddit.com/r/sbubby/comments/kgjoai/my_neighbor_baphomet/

I’m a big fan of The North East ;)

Our city made it illegal for scrap dealers to accept catalytic converters, and suddenly theft vanished entirely. Weird.

Me too! Our cat is the perfect child, most of the time. Except when she pukes on the bed.

When modern billboards became a thing, many cities or similar jurisdictions passed laws limiting their proliferation, in order to ensure you didn’t end up in a billboard filled dome.

In Canada, at least, you can register your address as a “no admail” destination, and you’ll stop getting those flyers entirely. It doesn’t stop certain protected classes of ads, in particular ads for prospective politicians during an election campaign, or mail that is personally addressed to you (even if it is an ad). But does shut it almost completely down. This would be the legal equivalent of installing a real-world ad-blocker.

Admittedly, a lot of people have flawed reasoning too.

It’s also how you would typically fence a stolen laptop.

This is a real phenomenon. Men are more attractive when they’re already in a relationship.

There are similar psychological effects that exist elsewhere. A job applicant is more attractive if they currently have a job. A scholarship application is more attractive if you list your existing scholarships. The effect is basically: someone else found you desirable, and therefore I must also.

The effect is so strong that it encourages people to fake it to gain the benefits.

Carrot cake is hard to light.

This is not flirting. It is socially maladjusted behaviour. Just because it has worked before doesn’t mean it is a good idea.

Pickup artists do all kinds of stupid shit that works that isn’t socially acceptable either.

Trampoline too expensive

Daaaad

Amazing!

From the Ukrainian perspective maybe. Russia hasn’t drafted yet.

It’s also about shows of strength for political purposes. We haven’t seen total war in ages.

I thought GCC dropped support for compiling to the abacus?

Colour me cautiously optimistic

Corporate journalism is digging (no pun intended) its own grave in many cases.

A feedback cycle where no one wants to pay for content, so advertisers are needed to fund their staff, which means clicks and engagement become the metric of success. But, the solution is either publicly funded news (largely unpopular), or regulating the open internet (more unpopular). So, yeah, the death of corporate journalism is coming.

I concur. It is also relatively unmolested in terms of fucking up KDE programs.
