No it doesn't. Social media sites that have moderators really need to take a stand about clickbait garbage headlines like this. It's like getting a free t-shirt with a car purchase and claiming that T-shirt costs $40,000. You're buying coins which already cost that much, the coins with or without the mount cost that much. Currently you can buy those coins and get a free mount. Lots to be upset with Diablo and Blizzard, but this is just garbage.

with my eyes closed, I think it was airing during the night here, and even if it didn't, I wouldn't.

This is a pretty questionable study. The supplementary materials don't have any breakdown of the 11000 volunteers at all, like how many were were in each category, how many people they had rating them, did they have exactly the same group rating all 11,000, etc.

Also was there any follow-up on this to account for changes over 20 years? I know plenty of people at 15 who would have been attractive, but not been by the time they were 35. Weight gain, bad plastic surgery, accidents, generally ageing poorly, etc.

Unfortunately any automated translation I've seen on various websites is garbage to the target language. I wish it wasn't. But we're a long way off from good translation on certain languages.

Unfortunately the only reason we have streaming services is because of the ease of built-in subtitles that are a pain in the ass to otherwise get (not English).

I lived in a country where spotify wasn't available, so I never stopped. Now that I'm in a country where it is available, I just don't want to spend the cash on it, since all these streaming services have me over a barrel.

if you live in the EU you own your digital purchases.

Hell Ernest, 7 months on, this is still an issue.

it wasn't. It was just a place where people shared pictures. The algorithm actually worked, recommended you accounts that you followed and liked and that was it.

Reels came out and that went sideways. The algorithm started pushing nothing but shitty meme accounts and the ads are nothing but 'coaches' talking about 'scaling' (yeah dude, some account with 30 followers totally convinces me that you can do that)
