communication [they]

I actually didn’t get that sense this time. Certainly the trailer left a lot to the imagination, and that’s letting me imagine impossible features that weren’t shown. But I thought Murray was very tame in his explanation. He didn’t really promise anything beyond a giant procedural world with multiplayer, and we know they can deliver on that. Everything else might suck. I get why people are skeptical about this, but I’m feeling confident that the final product will match what was shown here.

Oh my goodness Light No Fire looks so good. I really hope they’ve learned the right lessons from No Man’s Sky, because that trailer looked like everything I want from a game.

Okay, that’s a fair point. They left too many blanks for the reader to fill in, and some will assume the problem is more widespread than it is.

When I put my Social Scientist hat on, I don’t think the methodology was totally unreasonable or obviously malicious, so X would have to strengthen their claims to convince me to wait for court. But you’re right, MM should have done better.

I agree with your point in general, but I have a hard time applying it here. Unless the lawsuit alleges that MM hacked into Twitter or doctored the screenshots, then the core claim of the MM report “Twitter served ad Y next to post Z” is not under dispute. If the claim is that refreshing a page is malicious, then I don’t think we need to wait to call the lawsuit malicious.

This is a beautiful blog post and I recommend reading it. I never used Omegle, but I now understand what we’ve lost.

The tech that made this possible is really cool. They force DNA through a teeny-tiny hole in a protein, and measure changes in voltage to ID each individual letter.

Totally different from traditional shotgun sequencing!

I believe Misskey/Calckey are meant to be exactly this, but I haven’t tried them yet.

I love it! Perfect blend of simple, sleek, cute, and friendly.

Huge props for being one of the few major instances to preemptively shut down!

Bravo to GPT-4 for that summary! Very cool study, thanks for sharing.

As of Thursday evening, r/PICS had dropped the NSFW designation, along with r/military.

Incredibly disappointing, but I’ll wait to hear their explanations and new plans of action.

Totally. I was just thinking about how my very specific life circumstances mean that I’m otherwise distracted and handling it pretty well. But if I were in a rough patch right now this situation would be really, really, really hard. I hope the people in that situation are okay and finding new refuge in places like this ❤

Nothing today will make me sadder than knowing this isn’t a real book

When I press the save button it seems to get stuck on the spinning circle animation.

It may be related to one of my ad/script blockers, but I’ve tried the obvious things.

UPDATE: It seems to be a character limit issue? If I add more than “communication [they]” I get caught on the spinning circle. I guess Lemmy doesn’t have an error message for this situation.

Awesome, thanks so much! Looks like the server is too busy to save my changes so I’ll try again later. The pronoun link is a great idea.

Off topic, if you don’t mind: how do I add pronouns to my name?

At the end of 2022, it had just under 1.8 million subscribers, according to the authoritative Alliance for Audited Media.

I guess I don’t have context, but that doesn’t sound like a failing, unprofitable magazine in 2022?

I believe the reason that Rush publicised was that his vision wasn’t 20/20, but I suspect your point would have disqualified him later in the process anyway.

Whistleblower asked for non destructive examination of the material to understand its flaw structure

Do you know what would have been involved here? Some kind of imaging, I assume?

Thanks for the write up!

Cameron made a documentary about his sub called “Deep Sea Challenge” that’s pretty enjoyable. It’s available for free on Pluto TV, for those able to VPN into the USA.

Cameron’s sub wasn’t officially certified, but it was extremely well tested and he’s been clear that he never would have let anyone else use it without certifying it first.
