This was my first thought too. Those fuckers have great aim, and disgusting choice in projectiles

It’s a bit more nuanced than that. Essentially AP fact checked it and instead of saying “Hillbilly Eulegy doesn’t contain a story about Vance getting freaky with a couch” they used the headline “Vance never had relations with a couch”
That’s not something anyone could actually know for sure though, and they were called on it… and had to retract it…
Which of course lead to people wondering why it was retracted, and it kinda snowballed. I don’t think anybody seriously believes it, but as the story goes, there’s no evidence he DIDN’T fuck a couch lol
“tracking” of users, which makes it sound slightly more ominous than what it really is.
No, it makes it sound like exactly what it is.
74.437 unless you’re talking about Nautical Pinocchios, which would be 73.455
have you seen what people can do with makeup? The prince didn’t stand a chance!
I’d like to see stats on that, because there are equally many 2nd language speakers in English speaking spaces as well. Not to mention the brits, irish, aussies, kiwis, canadians, etc, and that’s before we get into this list of places with a non majority first language population, like many countries in Africa.
I think the percentage of Americans on the internet will be higher, but still not a majority
So what I’m hearing is: Fauci DIDN’T shoot a puppy in a gravel pit for essentially getting too excited…
what a monster /s
I feel like it’s app dependent. We use discord, and I feel like I get 1 notification per channel, but then other apps like LinkedIn (for shame!) are fucking incessant, and will REnotify me multiple times for things I’ve already dismissed. It’s infuriating.
Psh, I’m already doing that! I’m using smoke signals to write this right now!
Serious response: How would a movement like that spread awareness of itself?
Margaret Elaine Hamilton (née Heafield; born August 17, 1936) is an American computer scientist, systems engineer, and business owner. She was director of the Software Engineering Division of the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory, which developed on-board flight software for NASA’s Apollo program. She later founded two software companies—Higher Order Software in 1976 and Hamilton Technologies in 1986, both in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Hamilton has published more than 130 papers, proceedings, and reports, about sixty projects, and six major programs. She invented the term “software engineering”, stating “I began to use the term ‘software engineering’ to distinguish it from hardware and other kinds of engineering, yet treat each type of engineering as part of the overall systems engineering process.”
On November 22, 2016, Hamilton received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from president Barack Obama for her work leading to the development of on-board flight software for NASA’s Apollo Moon missions.
Huh, didn’t know about her! She sounds like a badass lady!
“VR in the 80s” is my go to analogy. Sooo many promises, such tantalizing potential… and zero follow through
Did you even read the article? That’s literally what they’re calling for. The removal of subsidies.
As for everyone needing to pitch in, just no. The vast majority of emissions come from sources outside public control. The “everyone needs to pitch in” and “watch your personal carbon footprint” crap is just effective marketing from BP.
Not saying cutting down personal emissions is bad, every little helps…
but it’s not a solution. We need to be holding the big emmiters accountable.
The only realistic way to doing that is through inconvenient protests like blocking roads and making sure we can’t be ignored. How else do you force governments to turn on their benefactors?
It’s been over 50 years now, and we’ve seen very little real movement on this. it’s been mostly token and empty gestures, and pandering. It’s time we stepped up our game.
Soooo she’s got the right idea imo
I’m willing to bet canceling will be instant too
If you’re interested in the plight of those who take the Darién Gap route, and want a less politically motivated source, Bald and Bankrupt went through.
Playlist here and there’s a 4th video as well which is just an interview here.
And the wrong fandom! Star Trek has always been about diversity and inclusion
