I think you're getting caught up in semantics.

"Following a trend" is something a series of points on a grid can do.

Love þe idea

Wouldn't that be a different character because it's a voices th? Usually that character represents a voiceless th.

Yeah, are we really at the point where we need to be murdering pieces of shit? I don't want the judicial system to do it, and I definitely don't want "vigilantes" to be doing it.

I definitely recognize the irony of the context in this situation though. He literally stood on the platform of "We need to accept that some people will die so that we can have our guns". He put his life where his mouth was...not that he ever expected to be the one to sacrifice his life.

I guess shooting nerf guns or silly string at him wouldn't have gotten the same message across.

Microsoft says AI is more productive than workers. Microsoft says workers are more productive in the office.

AI is not in the office.

So do we bring AI into the office to make it more productive?

Unfortunately, I don't have one.

Is there one god damn phone out there we can buy that's somewhat ethical and redirects or privacy?

Fairphone? Haven't been following that, but I'm pretty sure it's the most ethical phone to consume...at least in theory.

I guess "Tough on Crime" is really about stopping people from making inoffensive, washable graffiti.

These social justice warriors (Conservatives) fight against the fact that anyone is different from how they are so that they can pretend that everyone is a snowflake like they are. Or something.

We had artificial power and artificial movement for much longer than we've had artificial intelligence.

(Ok, it's not really artificial movement, but I couldn't think of a better phrase that referred to motors and stuff while still being "artificial" lol)

I'd like to visit Mexico sometime, but it wouldn't really work for a day trip

And an extra finger too, if you want to choose where you sit!

Oh man. I wish that'd work where I live (Canada). Europeans don't realize how lucky they have it! I can't fly to any worthwhile countries and back in a day (at least not long enough to enjoy the stay)

When Apple catches up to Android and figures out how to encrypt RCS texts, then both "bubble colours" will be encrypted communications

Oof, that makes sense

This is more NoStupidQuestions than AskLemmy imo...

To answer your question, you most likely have mental (or even possibly physical) inhibitions that stop you from screaming "on purpose". But sneezing is involuntary, so it isn't stopped by inhibitions.

I see this here and in my Google News Feed. I tried to find more discussion on Reddit, but it shows up absolutely nowhere.

Is this just a normal day in the US, or is Reddit burying it to make the place seem more positive?

50 and 32? Maybe, I guess?...

I thought bar food is tipped the same as restaurant food.

Tipping a dollar a drink is standard because

• It's easy

... that's really it. No thinking, no math, etc. which is important when you're drinking.

Also, you too per drink so the bartender knows you tip right from the start.

Walmart is a grocery store

It's literally Chinese surveillance the way that Facebook is Corporate-American surveillance. But China has a lot more ownership of what its companies have, hence why it's considered essentially Chinese-owned.

A seizure isn't your brain shutting down, but doing everything at once.

So I think going crazy is like that. Your cognition isn't declining, it's just going haywire!
