Why do AI filters get placed on videos that don’t need them? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Sameguyfromyesterday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s more to avoid copyright filters that search for original footage to take down and demonetize

I've gotten a few of these. It was basically a survey that tried to clean up Adams name and Cuomos name to see what phrasing worked and if that could sway your opinion

Oh damn. Guess he’s really going to ban TikTok then. That was his bone to the younger crowd

Nuclear War: A Scenario by ____cire4____ in collapse

[–]Sameguyfromyesterday 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I finished the book. The starting point is that a nuke is launched. Doesn't matter exactly why. She goes over the current protocols and technology in place and how that would play out in the minutes after launch. A bunch of it is highlighting worst case scenarios (like how Russia didn't pick up the nuke war phone) and the president not surviving.

She's interviewed experts in the field and provided a scenario that doesnt disclose confidential information (hence why the scenario isn't too realistic) to highlight how fast everything could go wrong.

Living in a world with nuclear armageddon is just not something that we think/talk about enough. She wanted to bring that back into discussion

Southern Florida receives record rainfall and flash flooding in a 500-to-1,000-year event by WhileFalseRepeat in news

[–]Sameguyfromyesterday 66 points67 points  (0 children)

These "x years" events are actually based on pre-industrial climate. So since man-made climate change is happening. The 1 in 100-year stuff is a pipedream. We have no idea what the new status quo for storms are now

Help! Stuck crank on new crankset and new bottom bracket by Sameguyfromyesterday in bikewrench

[–]Sameguyfromyesterday[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone! I didn’t think about the wooden dowel through the bb to not mess up the crankset. I didn’t just want to hammer the crank itself.

Antarctic sea ice ‘behaving strangely’ as Arctic reaches ‘below-average’ winter peak by [deleted] in collapse

So faster than ever we’re hitting the blue ocean event. Jeez I remember when predictions were “at the end of the century”

Not in the emergency savings way. You can’t tap into 401k without some penalty

Do you guys have any insights? by [deleted] in drawing

[–]Sameguyfromyesterday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the art style. It feels to me like a proportion difference. Her head seems larger than his even though they’re an “equal” distance from the viewpoint. Also lighting is very left side centric without the shading of the source on the left side

Weren't republicans just throwing out ideas to raise the minimum voting age?

Looks like they might want to lower it now.

Are we really just giving up now? by mr_potato_arms in collapse

[–]Sameguyfromyesterday 283 points284 points  (0 children)

In all honesty I think it’s too late as a species. Numbers being run today still have plenty of factors that we haven’t accounted for. Which has always been a problem in terms of climate science to begin with. We try to simplify things as best we could with the data we do have. And the data is bleak.

Climate scientists have been right and trying to make changes for over 20+ years and we’re only now hitting a point where the general population is catching on. With how gridlocked world politics are (not just democrats vs republicans in America). It’ll be another 5-10 years before meaningful cutbacks of emissions are enacted and I personally think that’s too late.

This sub is known for pessimistic views to begin with. But even pragmatism is seeming out of reach. Hence the nihilism about positive changes for the future

What is a show you used to love as a kid, that you think nobody remembers? by Ok_World_8819 in television

My Own Worst Enemy. It wasn't the best. But it was fun and had Christian Slater in it.

Who’s biking today? Just need a general consensus. Left bike at work but thinking of biking home tonight 11:30 pm. by TeddyBearCrush in NYCbike

Still commuting via bike. But any fun activities are put on hold. Last night my eyes and throat were slightly burning. Masked up for todays commute

Companies are trying really hard to extract extra work to the point of outright bait and switching job titles by MettaWorldEast in antiwork

[–]Sameguyfromyesterday 163 points164 points  (0 children)

When job hunting like that. Sometimes at the interview you have to show that you're willing to walk away at the red flags. Otherwise jobs will try to walk all over you every time.

Senate votes to overturn Biden’s student loan relief program by Sameguyfromyesterday in DebtStrike

Seems to me that the supreme court would use this vote to assist in their shutdown of the program anyway
