fluid dynamics are quite effective at that. And there seem to only be a few main talking points that they bring up (environmental, energy, training data, art, job loss, personal dislike, wealth concentration (probably better to just say economic, but it’s pretty much just this), ill fitting usages, or not understanding how the model works at a fundamental level), unless people think about something a lot they generally come up with similar arguments.

- Comment on Movie Theaters Post Warnings Against Crazy ‘Minecraft Movie’ Screenings: ‘Screaming’ and ‘Taking Part in TikTok Trends Will Not Be Tolerated’ 1 week ago:
the Minecraft movie was announced more than 10 years ago, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect that teenagers will want to have fun in a place where there is no expectation they should clean up and where the only people getting an interrupted experience were toddlers disrupting movies when the movie was announced.

- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 1 week ago:
it’s a death by a thousand cuts situation, more friction to use a local account, less convenience in accessing rarely used settings (most recently I was trying to help someone change a setting located in the advanced power management control panel thing), more pressure to use edge, continuing to shove one-drive down our throats, copilot, implementing features that knowingly make third party tools work significanly less well without proper customization to fix it, weirdness around Multi-Display setups on laptops, the maps app getting worse at giving directions.

early CDs suffered from the data layer literally falling off, some blu rays are known to suffer from bit rot, vinyl gets damaged whenever it’s played.

someone has a job to collect them and unless the parking lot is even close to full there’s no risk for any vehicles getting damaged from a few dozen loose carts.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:

It’s almost as if volte being a* proprietary technology hurts consumers and a lack of emergency test numbers (numbers that use the emergency system but are just for testing that it works) makes things harder.
*potentially multiple technologies
- Comment on Why doesn't phones numbers have a "DNS" servet so we can just type in words like we do with the internet? 1 month ago:
To be fair, phone books are far from common in the USA anymore, and DNS is a far more interacted with technology than old school caller id.
