I love how their poll is an outlier and they just assume voters have changed their minds en masse

Dude please give it a rest. We’re talking about how candidates are perceived in the general election. You know this is full of distortions, double standards, lies, and many dated associations.

Giving me shit for calling clean air radical only shows you don’t know how to have a meta conversation about political discourse itself and are on a hair-trigger to give speeches at any provocation.

And BAM, just like that, the term “Butlerian Humanist” was born.

Have humans also been rinsing it clean afterward for thousands of years? If anyone is just spritzing this into their hair that’s…… gag.

Don’t worry, they have all the data on that, and I’m pretty sure they thought of it.

Fact is that most visits from search engines don’t go very deep anyway. They are allowing a brief glimpse at one page before they start prompting you to log in, and that is likely driving logins while barely shortening those SEO visits, which are not of great value in the first place.

It may come as a surprise but websites often have traffic they don’t want. I recall once my boss noticed there was a non-negligible amount of traffic from parts of the world none of our advertisers care about. He built an endless revolving door of promo offers and directed this traffic into it. It didn’t generate much money but it made the rest of our traffic look higher quality right away.

It’s a symbolic run to shift the Overton window in the right direction and to take some of the lightning off some more moderate candidate, who will look less radical next to her.

I don’t think she has a chance in the general if I’m honest. She won’t even make it to nomination. However it would help with the Overton window if she ran. We need someone in the race with no gray hairs who will speak truth plainly. It’s amazing how long it’s been since we even saw that happen.

Shhh everyone’s trying to have a two-for-one here where they hate on AI and the US as the same time. Don’t ruin it with facts!!

I just tried it from the US and it told me unequivocally that Joe Biden won.

However it didn’t automatically show the “AI mode” result when I searched. It sometimes does and other times doesn’t, depending on the search. But when I tapped “AI mode” I got a straight answer. Not even a mention of fraud allegations.

It’s not the difficulty of the thing. It’s the fact that it’s thing 1,000,001 for me to remember to do in my very busy life. We can’t all be like you, sitting around with nothing better to do than keep track of shit like this.

I was already about to say “go watch some more movies” and then your comment finished with a movie reference :D

I’m downvoting it for the unreadable typography, suppressing the web page reader view on my phone, and that pretentious first paragraph. Not reading further. If people think this rant is great, great. If you disagree with me, please don’t tell me.

I never forget to update my credit card expiry date and have to buy my gmail address back from a squatter.

Yep he didn’t build Instagram, WhatsApp, or even the Facebook ad engine, which is arguably Meta’s actual product.

Just because we don’t know what it is doesn’t mean we can’t know what it isn’t.

Even incapable hands can do more than they could before. The problem is when they attempt far too much.

Oh well that string of profanity really convinced me. Thank you for clearing that up.

The taxi doesn’t just get dropped on the curb when you arrive. It leaves to go serve someone else.

No they don’t. They cut down on walking.
