It’s both. Liking chocolate ice cream more than vanilla ice cream is a preference. Someone is not actively choosing to prefer that flavor.

A shitpost is often a joke, but not always. Sometimes, a shitpost is just a shitpost.
It’s called a shitpost, mom. All the cool kids are doing it.
The source does not have a watermark. Usually this webcomic does, but not this particular one for some reason: https://www.instagram.com/p/DE77yjMRfJE/
Do not think OP cut it off here intentionally or something.
Edit. Asterisks fucked the formatting.
Lemmy is assuming each pair of asterisks in your comment is supposed to italicize the text in between. You can negate the markdown formatting by using a backslash before each asterisk to specify that they should just be treated as asterisks instead of italicizing anything.

Are you sure this example is just training? This definitely seems like something that could be a genuine scam attempt.
Reminds me of the COVID relief payment simulated phishing emails that made headlines. People complained that they had to take additional training after clicking some “Click here to retrieve your COVID relief funds” link during the early days of the pandemic that turned out to actually just be their corporate IT team sending a simulated phishing attack. They expected that this was the official government relief page that they have been waiting for, and were excited for the financial relief. Many people claimed that it was not okay do “prey” on people’s desperation at this point, but these simulated phishing emails were just getting people wary of the real thing. Actual scammers who were actually attempting to steal your money were absolutely sending these types of COVID relief phishing emails for real. So, these simulated emails were just preparing users in case one if the real spam emails happened to slip through the filters.

It genuinely pushed for a lot of technical achievements. Knowledge/skills that will be able to improve future films. Sure, the Avatar films may not be good films on their own. But they are being used to develop technologies which will make for better films from other people who actually want to make good films.

I imagine stuff like that goes on all time. I mean, I don’t give a shit. If I was dead, you could bang me all you want. Who cares? Dead body’s like a piece of trash. I mean, shove as much shit in there as you want. Fill me up with cream. Turn me into a cannoli. Make a stew out of my ass. What’s the big deal? Bang me, eat me, grind me up into little pieces, throw me in the river. Who gives a shit? You’re dead, you’re dead.

What feature from Directory Opus is unavailable in Linux? I assume you can find a plugin or something to make Dolphin (the default file explorer for KDE Plasma, but you should be able to install it pretty much anywhere) do just about anything you need.
