After smoking… what? What is that?

That's already been happening.

Sending someone to a prison in a country they’ve never been to is not deportation.

People talk about the “dangers of AI” without keeping in mind that AI only has the power that humans grant it. So, could AI start a war? No, the humans stupid enough to rely on the AI system and start a war based on the information it provided would be the ones who did that.

Just what we need, more opinions from incoherent and semi literate people.

They used to be better. I had a lot of success when they were relatively new. However the culture around them has gotten worse and more toxic, and the companies have grown more abusive of customers. Just what I gather… I haven’t tried since 2019.

Tinder was okay for meeting people interested in actual relationships when it was newer. It seemed to turn into more of purely a shallow hookup site. I tried Bumble, and that worked, though it apparently is not as good as it used to be. Never tried Hinge or any of the others.

Thinking more about psychology helped me have success on the apps. Don’t be boring, start real conversations. I got some very good advice once from a friend, which was “if a girl is on tinder, she’s horny”. I was… oh. That makes sense. It helped me be less nervous. You could also say lonely or bored. In my experience it’s not hard to figure out if someone is after the same things as you are. I’ve never used them to just hookup, only find steady girlfriends. I did find some situations more like hookups, casual GFs or FWB though. A few dates fizzled. I’ve gotten together with about 15 women I met on Tinder/Bumble and 6 of them turned into steady relationships. I can’t say they were the most sane people I’ve ever met.

It sounds like it is simply not functioning and prevents your Internet connection from working. I wouldn’t really call that “take complete control of your phone”. It’s a combination of Tor, dnscrypt and Purple I2P. So, it is supposed to control access to the internet. But if it isn’t working it isn’t working I guess. I’ve never used it so I don’t have any additional insight into why not.

Cheese

So… sandwiches?

definitely fuck whoever told him about the concept of tariffs

they're focusing on AI instead, it seems

I don't save stuff with it but I read the articles that come up on desktop. so it's kinda like a community, subreddit, rss feed, whatever

I enjoy pocket for the articles that come up on the new tab page. I’ve never once saved an article for later with it.

Always such an asshole with his holiday messages.

Besides accuracy, this has been my problem with the concept of “AI replaces google search”. That’s basically saying AI summaries replace websites. Where does the AI model get its info from? Oh yeah, websites. Sounds like a super solid plan in the long run.

I know his supporters are incredibly stupid, but just his age alone makes this ridiculous. His brain is already senile cheese and he started out as a complete moron, so I doubt he’ll be thriving in 4 years. Other than that it’s blatantly illegal, of course.

Of course. New Reddit has been a ridiculous travesty since the start, even with continued development and refinement. There are so many stupid and annoying things about it. It also has a lot of performance problems compared to the old UIs - not just slowness, but issues like the video player crashing or just stopping, and it doesn't do that in old reddit. Also they try to restrict you and guide you to the app in ways that old reddit does not - saying a post is for mature audiences and you have to use the app, for instance. But then you can view it on old reddit with no problem.
