ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Technology@lemmy.world•Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this yearEnglish4·2 months agoThat’s the challenge with technical advances. It’s not just solving the technical problem, it’s also solving the societal problem.
If you look back into history, Automated elevators was a major panic until people got comfortable with the idea.

Glorify unhealthy relationships
So many to call out, but to keep it lighthearted, Gintama plays abuse for laughs.
It’s a great show btw.
This is going to sound stupid, but during college, I took a lot of different types of math and history classes.
As humans, we invented years, and ages. Then we made milestones for what they represented. We said, there are 7 days in the week. We said, there are 52 weeks in a year. Some other BS happen and then culturally we said things like by age 30, you should be married. By age 40, you should have a family.
But imagine if we actually made a week 10 days? Or there’s 30 weeks in a year? Suddenly, this is all BS numbers. Back to culturally, why is 30 a specific number? Or 40? Or any of these numbers?
For me, 40 is just a made-up number. It means nothing. The expectations around the number, bullshit. My friend is 55, and we went bar hopping. I hung out with a 70 and played Frisbee. I pitched go-karts and dressing up like Mario Kart to my 60yo neighbors.
Just made up numbers.
Of course, don’t get weird and and try to shoehorn underage relationships. That’s not the intent here.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Gaming@beehaw.org•Polygon Sold To Valnet And Hit With Mass Layoffs5·2 months agoI gotta admit, I was pretty amazed when they built Polygon out of scratch. It was just passionate game writers who is wanted to share the content they like reading. The first year was full of great writing. Then it kinda faded into the background, which isnt a problem.
Seeing how that happened gives me hope that a new website filled with passionate game writers will sprout up.
Speak for yourself. I had a security guard who watched me scan then try to run up to me when I finished to recheck my stuff.
Like dude, you watched me from the beginning.
It’s always a hassle for me. Items not scanning. The machine screaming about the item not weighing correctly. The machine screaming at you because you moved your item.
It’s great for quick purchases. But I’m going to a cashier if I have more than 10 items.
Yeah. Asshole did a number on America. I’m not letting him die in peace.
I still laugh at recruiters who ask if I’m okay that the company has a dress code.
I laugh even harder if it’s a remote position.
I love shitty tattoos.
Not on myself, mind you.
Bro I’m laughing my ass off you made my Sunday.
We’ll just push that 4-top, 4-top, 6-top, 5-top together and make a table at this server station while blocking fire escapes.
I’m laughing real hard because I was also attracted by the thumbnail and clicked.
But – I hope others don’t follow suit and make sharing content look like time square with motion everywhere.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto World News@lemmy.world•Via porn, gore and ultra-violence, extremist groups are sinking hooks online into the very youngEnglish1·3 months agoSorry? What? I’m not following any of this.
I know this guy who is absolutely ridiculous about this.
On one hand, he can’t stand women’s groups, gets upset about women’s sports, can’t stop dismissing anything that isn’t solely masculine like yoga, dance, and even rages on women artists and musicians.
On the other hand, has BEGGED OUT LOUD to people (I’m not even his friend) to get him connected with “chicks”.
I have no idea how to tell this guy he’s a miserable hateful fuck who will die alone because of his own personality.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Games@lemmy.world•Should we boycott games with loot boxes?English30·3 months agoI started my protest a decade ago.
While you can argue that nothing happened and we still have loot boxes, I’d argue that my life is greatly enriched for not feeling any motivation to play in those looty skinner box games.
So yeah after a year of a release.
Pig buttholes? Gonna call bullshit.
