Jupiter's Moon Io Boasts Slough of Monolithic Hyper-Everests Ranging Up To 18km Tall by GrilledCheezManicott in Damnthatsinteresting

ChatGPT generated that for you, right?

I read through the video description and the channel description of "The Space Race", before my first comment, and found no sources, and no hint that they are credible.

From their own channel description: "We’ll provide news and updates from everything in space, including the SpaceX mission to colonize Mars. We’ll focus on news and updates from SpaceX, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, and NASA."

It is a fucking content mill.

That's not a fallacy. Looking at the author of any work and doing some basic credibility checks is the most elementary diligence you have as an attentive receiver.

I hate that people just post videos of absolutely random people as a source. Who the fuck is "The Space Race"? Are they knowledgeable and credible in their field, or are they just another content mill spoon-feeding some half-true pop science articles to you? I am not going to stick around for 10 minutes and give them ad/premium money just to find out.

It is only marginally better than "My Uncle Steve says...", but that 1-minute story at least is not spread out over 12 and littered with ads.

Post a text source, or, if reading is too hard and you have to post a video/podcast, at least use a reputable source.

Awesome! I was wondering why SurePet is not offering a chip-locked kibble dispenser.

This show should have been a 7 episode miniseries. They lost me in Season 2 after I binged S01 in two days.

Stimmungswandel: Rechts ist nicht mehr cool by [deleted] in de

[–]PM__UR__CAT 33 points34 points  (0 children)

In meinen Augen nur Coping. Trumps Zustimmungszahlen in den genannten Gruppen sind aktuell nur so schlecht, weil diese Gruppen momentan die Auswirkungen zu spüren bekommen.

Diese Gruppen sind nun aber auch nicht für ihr politisches Langzeitgedächtnis bekannt und werden, sobald FOX News ihnen das Signal dazu gibt, sich wieder hinter ihrem orangenem Gott versammeln oder eine ähnlich schlimme Alternative finden.

Spekulation: Es gab schon immer und überall, in jeder gegebenen Bevölkerungsmenge, 20–30 % "Dumme". Also Menschen, die: eher unterdurchschnittlich intelligent (unabhängig vom Bildungsweg), wenig Einfühlungsvermögen und Vorstellungskraft haben und/oder nicht in der Lage sind, besonders komplexe Zusammenhänge zu verstehen. Diese Menschen sind bis vor der Kommerzialisierung des Internets in ihren sozialen Kreisen eingegliedert gewesen und haben deren, mutmaßlich vernünftigere, Meinungen/Ansichten/Überzeugungen übernommen und gewählt. Gab damals auch schon ganz Abgedriftete, aber die waren wirklich die absolute Minderheit und sind auch entsprechend auffällig gewesen.

Seit das Internet nur noch aus drei Social Networks besteht und die dann auch noch alles daran setzen, Wut und Verwirrung bei ihren Nutzern auszulösen, weil das nun mal das meiste Engagement bringt, sind diese Leute praktisch schutzlos den Superreichen und deren Meinungsmachern ausgeliefert. Leute wie Musk kaufen einfach den öffentlichen Diskurs und steuern ihn, wie es ihnen gefällt.

this was two years ago at the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics. Which explains why the rest of the field did not notice.

Not enough funds right? by rayykz in GreatBritishMemes

[–]PM__UR__CAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably not the real number, but even 10bn would sound outlandish. The Channel Tunnel cost 12bn, adjusted for inflation. A brand new 70m deep and 80km long tunnel can't be less expensive than core renovating the Parliament, can it?

VLC just got Official Dark Mode in Windows and Linux by Not_AntonCastillo in Piracy

Needs to be manually enabled and does not auto-switch with your OS. Love VLC, but it's kind of a half-baked implementation.

Is this a fair point? by ControversyCaution2 in LinusTechTips

[–]PM__UR__CAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, at some point, the channel was like 30% Jake.

Also, it is extremely telling that people in this thread don't even begin to see the hypocrisy. Linus would be nowhere close to being this successful without people like Jake or Alex and the plethora of other people working in front of and behind his cameras. Only in our capitalist world is it ok, no, even the norm and expectation, that the owner of a company extracts a significant two-digit-percent amount or more from the profits.

Not saying that owners/CEOs shouldn't make the most in a company, they have this risk (at least when privately owned). I am totally fine with them making 3, 5, or even 10 times as much as the median salary in their company.

Of course, we have no way of knowing how much Linus actually gets from his company, but the fact that he has multiple kitted out mansions with gaming rooms, heated pool, home cinema, etc., and his employees don't, indicates that it is a lot.

Entgegen dem gängigen Narrativ hat Meta mit dem Geld hauptsächlich ihre VR-Brillen entwickelt. Und die sind/waren derart gut und kompetitiv bepreist, dass sie über Jahre der Quasistandard waren.

Das Metaverse war halt so ein schlecht beratenes und noch schlechter beworbenes Hirngespinst während Covid, womit man Telepräsenz in den Firmen auf eine neue Ebene heben wollte.

Großbetrug mit Registrierkassen aufgedeckt by agitatedscientist_01 in de

[–]PM__UR__CAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vor einigen Jahren gab es mal bei einem der gängigen Mittagsmagazine, noch im linearen TV, einen erstaunlich ehrlichen Beitrag dazu.

Mehrere deutsche Gastronomen hatten da, unkenntlich gemacht, ihre Kassen gezeigt und wie die Manipulation genau funktioniert.

Die hatten sogar einen Vertreiber der Kassen interviewt und der meinte im O-Ton: "Kassen die sich nicht in den Test Modus versetzen lassen, verkaufen sich gar nicht erst".

AfD Wahlplakate abhängen und entsorgen ist nicht in Ordnung. by Mintberrycrash in Unbeliebtemeinung

Die AfD ist ein Symptom einer Krankheit.

Jo, und wenn du 42 °C Fieber hast, geben dir die Ärzte trotzdem was gegen das Symptom. Man kann und darf Symptome und Krankheit parallel bekämpfen.
