The spam isn't just for things that are savory. The spam can be for unsavory things, propagandizing, griefing, or advertising outright illegal things.
I don't want to have to wade through a shit ton of nazi bullshit or ads for whatever is the silk road replacement nowadays in order to take a beat after work to read shitposts. Dealing with inane stupidity shouldn't be the bar for what people have to put up with to interact with each other.
It's the 250th birthday of the US Army, this was supposedly in planning already under Biden's administration. Trump is definitely taking the opportunity to make it about himself though.
Is no one else gonna do it? Alright, guess I'm it.
Steve Harvey: "We asked 100 people, what is the male reproductive organ?"
Contestant: "The penis"
SH: "A WUH... HUH??"
audience erupts into laughter
Steve Harvey grabs onto podium to support himself
laughter gets even louder
SH: O lordy...
one man goes into cardiac arrest and many others begin vomiting profusely from laughing too hard
SH: YOU PEOPLE NEED HELP
the Earth shatters and Satan rises from the underworld to claim unworthy souls
the universe begins rapidly closing in on itself
SH: (putting on a weary voice) Survey says...
the board shows 100 for "penis"
Harvey is able to get off one more shocked look before existence as we know it comes to an end
I can add that if you ever say something that you yourself think was stupid, it's often better to just own up to it than to play it off (within limits). Something like "That was a stupid thing for me to say, I'm sorry, you're just very beautiful and I'm a bit nervous" as an example.
I am offended by this.
It's obviously z = boobs.
Worst crime: Commenter doesn't like him.
C++ is unironically my favorite language, especially coding in python feels so ambiguous and you need to take care of so many special cases that just wouldn't even exist in C++.
I want to add that experimental reactors used for scientific research might never become net energy positive and that would be fine. Their purpose isn't to generate profit, it's to learn more about the physics, so it will be more valuable for them to be adaptable than efficient.
However, that doesn't mean that you can't take a configuration that has been shown to have potential and make a reactor that is more efficient than adaptable and use that to generate power for the electrical grid.
Basically, they have two different purposes.
One thing I've learned is that conspiracy theorists always seem to end up at racism.
From the Wikipedia page:
If untreated, symptoms may include loss of the ability to move one or both sides of the face, joint pains, severe headaches with neck stiffness or heart palpitations. Months to years later, repeated episodes of joint pain and swelling may occur. Occasionally, shooting pains or tingling in the arms and legs may develop. Despite appropriate treatment, about 10 to 20% of those affected develop joint pains, memory problems, and tiredness for at least six months.
The term "premium-feeling" does a lot of heavy lifting in that paragraph, one might almost say that it's a bit subjective.
Because not as many people were on the internet, the technological and social landscape is completely different today compared to twenty years ago.
Moderation has also pretty much always been part of the internet in some degree, I don't believe that the internet being enshittified has nearly as much to do with the presence of moderation, good or bad, as it does with fundamental problems with the constant monetization inherent in capitalism and the adaption of social media influence and recruitment strategies by the far right.
