I was there at the peak Macromedia Flash days. Shit was so fun to play around in, simple enough a 15 year old could work out how to make great animations and interactions but powerful enough to make whole games in and it was the experimentation that led to the creativity.
Kids these days have roblox to play with which looks like it’s got the same type of creative tools so that experimentation is still going on in bedrooms and libraries but it’s just being swamped by so much slop.
Needs to be randomised double blind with control samples to be truly accurate.
^but I’ll be getting me some of those sainsburys beans^
Tell you what, you come up with a joke that pokes fun at the inherent corruption in the US medical system where drug manufacturers, drug regulators and insurance companies conspire together to manufacture a national addiction to opiates and anti-depressants and how that addiction has spiraled into the world’s highest rates of opiate abuse and how the citizens of another country don’t want this aspect of American life foisted on them at the whims of a dementia addled paedophile. Then boil that joke down into a 5 second video on TikTok and I’ll concede the point.
Your/their doesn’t really make all that much difference.
Christ, it’s a flipping meme. You’d think noone made a joke about addicts before.
Specialized AI double checking radiology may have a use, but I still don’t see it as a replacement as much as a second check.
Exactly. An automatic second opinion that flags scans that should be looked at again? Excellent. Something that’s wrong 10% of the time being the sole decision maker? No thank you.
JD Vance as president will almost certainly be worse for everyone.
The opioid epidemic was directly caused by your own healthcare system 🤷♀️
Hedgehogs are critically endangered in the UK, largely due to habitat disruption, they travel multiple miles per night in search of food and mates. People’s gardens hold huge resources for them but they’re increasingly becoming hard to access as walls and concrete grounded fences block travel between gardens pushing them out into roads to cover enough ground.
Also farming has had a huge impact in hedgehogs as land clearances have removed a lot of their natural habitat (hedgerows) and increasing pesticide use means less food and less safety.
They already don’t give a fuck about poisoning the environment when they get punished for it, how do you think giving them a free ride to do it will help anything?
You are the product
Didn’t realise I lived in such a beautiful place until I didn’t have to moors to explore on my doorstep.
They put these flags up like this for the same reason Mormons and Jehovas go knocking on doors. It’s not to spread the word or convert anyone, it’s to reinforce the “us vs them” mentality that locks people into relying on their group and distrusting and rejecting others.
They (the people who’s idea it was to start doing this) know that the flags are going to get removed from lamp posts, telegraph poles, road signs etc but they get people to put them up and say “look how much everyone hates us” and then all they talk about is how you can’t show the flag anymore because of woke, when most council buildings already fly the union flag and on private property you can fly whatever you want (generally).
I grew up about 10 minutes from Crapstone!
Also Gloom/Frost Haven, I think they actually work better in their digital implementation due to the amount of cardboard overhead in the physical game.
Want to spend 6 months learning a game and still only scraping the surface of a gigantic logistics simulator? May I introduce you to Gary Grigsby’s War in the Pacific: Admirals Edition
Oh, for heaven’s sake, mankind, it’s only four light years away, you know. I’m sorry, but if you can’t be bothered to take an interest in local affairs, that’s your own lookout. Energize the demolition beams.
