This is so steep at $6/mo

I don’t have the time to Google atm but there’s a growing body of experts shifting to the “it doesn’t actually matter”. Here’s a podcast about it but there are definitely more sources to find: https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/lifematters/the-myth-of-good-posture/13864470

I saw another comment in the thread about ensuring you get movement in – that’s what my PT hammered into me.

Man, what a shit take this is. Spent two seconds on the press release. This is what they want to accomplish: "Creating housing with more data and accountability by creating clearer insights into local permitting and development decisions and deploying tools to support every community in building enough homes for all its residents, including vulnerable populations. "

And two seconds on the “nonsense generator can’t fix homelessness, how do we actually do it?” take: “To improve housing affordability, California needs to streamline and accelerate housing production and reexamine the regulations that have hindered new housing development.”

This is bullshit rage bait. I mean, can “GenAI” do this well? IMO no, but the idea of trying to solve the root problems isn’t complete dog shit.

“Google is where we go to answer our questions and you just really want to feel like you can trust those answers and the company behind them. And moments like these break that trust and make you feel like Google’s supposed core value—truth—has been co-opted by politics,” Urban told The Post after posting to X about his dismay over the results.

Absolutely not. I do not expect or want Google to decide what is the truth and give me a 3 second sound byte on what the Holocaust was. How do things like this get traction??

This is my favorite stupid review from a local bookstore:

Ah gotcha. I don’t know of a foss version but you can use Buzzkill or STFO to make a notification rule that turns up sound for a matching text message or something like that. I.e. send a text “ring my phone” and make a rule for it to do a sound

You can use the play sound button to make it ring

I read all the one star reviews. If they are all something akin to “my food was too colorful” or “the waitress didn’t refill my water enough” then it’s probably ok

This thread is so fascinating. I agree with the OP 100% and it’s so strange to me to see the arguments against them.

Like, games as designed now are predatory. My kids get a game and are bombarded with shiny ways to extract more money.

OP’s point on MMOs is that they provide servers and that means a monthly subscription and the only way (originally) to get stuff was to grind.

I just have Lemmygrad blocked and I never see this

I think a second factor is a lowered expectation of immersion that comes with playing elsewhere. The author specifically says they can play in the pub waiting for friends or on the train or whatever. You’re not as invested in those situations, so a game is more of a distraction than an experience.

Save yourself a click: they spoke French to each other on set, that is the whole article
