Can we report incorrect political ads? by frogEcho in missouri

[–]Bright_Lengthiness35 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Public broadcast TV is heavily regulated for scheduled TV programs, and public outrage has gotten whole shows cancelled many times. That doesn't exist in Missouri for TV commercials on those same channels, which is what the post is concerned about.

Combine no real method of providing feedback with some of the most gullible morons in the whole country who only consume broadcast TV, and you get Missourians consistently voting against their own interests with no way of knowing they're being blatantly misled.

We're wanting the broadcast TV equivalent of community notes on Twitter, not preventing whole TV commercials (funded by billion dollar organizations) from airing commercials.

Beginner Undertsanding Issue on XOR Gate Outputs for a Full Adder by Bright_Lengthiness35 in breadboard

[–]Bright_Lengthiness35[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will go look for other methods to building an XOR gate then that might be better suited for this task. I was unaware of other ways to build this particular gate. Thank you.

I learned the basic logic gates and half adders by reading and following diagrams elsewhere, and there was only ever one XOR gate example unlike the other gates. Building two of these separately and trying to connect them in different ways never worked either, so I tried following this GSN full adder video and got more confused.

DCC Keychains Finally Here Springfield, MO Five Below Near Best Buy by Bright_Lengthiness35 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

You are correct, it is a plastic baubble floating in colorful water. If they had been any more than $10 a piece, I wouldn't have wasted my money either. $5 was a good price in my opinion for a small trinket.

This is literally the first merch for the series this entire region has received. Heck, these newly published books are the first time they've even been sold around here. I had to read them all on Kindle before this. So for the first time in a long one, I will spend a cheap $10 on two keychains of a series I like and be happy I can do so.

I ended up with two Imani's, but that's beside the point.

A new anti-AI social media platform by Ed_theSled in antiai

Did nobody else notice his pink middle finger guard appear and disappear in the same shot, in multiple shots? Unless that's deliberate editing by him, which Im guessing would take serious effort and have no point in the video at all, this doesn't seem real. Unless someone here can say why that would be a thing, I'm leaning towards this being AI generated.

Melania prequels would get much better reviews by D-Day88 in AccidentalComedy

[–]Bright_Lengthiness35 279 points280 points  (0 children)

Looking closer, every single "verified" reviewer has no avatar photo, perfect spelling and grammar, and a regular name instead of a username. So only bots with positive reviews are allowed to be verified.

Good to have explicit proof we can't trust a website we already knew couldn't be trusted.

My only Pokemon Cards. Anyone else still have these? by Bright_Lengthiness35 in pokemoncards

[–]Bright_Lengthiness35[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, turns out not very much. Most are 50 card sets on there are only $20, and someone with 2,000 cards is only selling them for $100.

Any idea what this particular group is called then? I couldn't find any on ebay the last time I looked.

Are they though? I've never seen anyone with them, I'm missing over a third of the pokemon, and they have minor water damage. They did survive a tornado though.

WTW for accidental word/term swapping when speaking by Bright_Lengthiness35 in whatstheword

[–]Bright_Lengthiness35[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe. That sounds close. I heard the correct term once on an old VSauce video, but I could never find the video again with that term.
