There aren’t even 2.9billion people in the US.

I think that’s an interesting way to look at it. I find it easier to do the mental gymnastics, as you call it.

Real talk, is there some benefit to an analog clock that would prevent them from all being replaced by digital ones? Being able to know exactly the time in a moment’s glance seems better to me.

They’re certainly not better looking than a digital one, considering most of the ones used in schools are just the cheapest and most basic version they can get.

Power requirements maybe? Longevity?

Anticheat will have to just come from other methods that people will also hate.

Imagine, for example, if they required a form of government issued ID and the account was tied to you specifically. Despite privacy nightmare that it is (plus other issues, especially around globally accessed games), bans would have significantly larger impact if they’re tied to a real-world identity.

Dude what the fuck are you on about. Plenty of products have safety measures in place because we have federal systems to regulars them.

You can’t just cherry pick one example and then say America bad. What a fucking .ml tier take.

I have never once received one of these messages. Doesn’t happen to everyone.

This happens to me often. I don’t learn, unlike you.

Always trying to go too fast.

I, for one, would be whole lot poorer and a whole lot hungrier.

Idk where you get your food from, but mine comes from a store up the road a bit and is mostly delivered using vehicles that use gasoline to deliver it there.

Lactose intolerance is more common than lactose tolerance globally. In the unites states, something like 1 in 3 people are lactose intolerant.

It’s largely genetic. Lactose tolerance can be traced to nomadic tribes that kept milk producing animals as a food source, adapting to tolerate lactose in their diet over time.

With the rise of ebay thrift resalers, I feel like all the charity/thrift stores around me price rather aggressively.

I haven’t paid for windows since like 2014. The fuck are you guys doing that you haven’t gotten a free legitimate license?

I don’t think anything gave me existential doom quite as much as the ending of that game.

I offer Witchcraft by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

I request power metal recommendations, please.

I recently realized that I have some basic bitch music tastes and could likely listen to ai generated instrumentals for a long time

Instance owner: does something they thought would be cool and was likely interesting to implement

You being butt hurt about something INCREDIBLY inconsequential like AI art isn’t going to make it go away.

What would you suggest they use instead?

This is similar to how Tachiyomi forks can still exist. Even though tachiyomi never had a real case go to court, they’ve separated the extensions library from the reader so nothing comes “preloaded” with any potential copywrite infringing parts.

Surge pricing for fast food is a hilarious concept. Maybe if they also offered discounts during their slow hours?

Ah yes, guilty until proven otherwise. Just how it should be.

This dude needs a nap.
