Independent thinker valuing discussions grounded in reason, not emotions.
I say unpopular things but never something I know to be untrue. Always open to hear good-faith counter arguments. My goal is to engage in dialogue that seeks truth rather than scoring points.

is there anyway I could be more disruptive to the business model?
By not using the platform. You think you’re being clever but all you’re doing is making them more money.

Looking at my investments, this deep seek event barely even registers. The total value of it all is just slightly below all-time-high.
The thing you’re jumping from is moving. The air masses are moving. The earth is moving. The falling object is moving. There are several factors at play here. If you were still relative to the earth at the moment you jumped from, say a hot air balloon and the fall took you 5 minutes and you were just falling straight down then you’d miss the target by around 150 kilometers.

Free_Opinions@feddit.uktoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•This is What Resistance Can Look LikeEnglish813·5 months agoShouldn’t the community’s name be the first rule on which the side panel just elaborates on? Subscribing to a meme community only to be bombarded with unfunny political hot takes feels completely unwarranted. This platform becomes intolerable when it’s nearly impossible to escape the constant politics. Not everyone wants to be angry 24/7.

Free_Opinions@feddit.uktoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•This is What Resistance Can Look LikeEnglish510·5 months agoBy Dawknin’s original definition (cultural) memes are ideas, behaviors, styles, or practices that spread within a culture by imitation (Greek mimema, meaning “imitated”) and carry symbolic meaning. Some examples would be the “Keep Calm And Carry On” posters during WW2, the concept of the “American Dream” or toasting with glasses.
However in this context we’re talking about internet memes which is not synonymous with cultural memes. An internet meme is a picture or video that is funny, ironic, or relateable. The picture above is neither a cultural nor internet meme.

I did the exact same thing with my previous device, LG V20. I used it closer to seven years while waiting for someone to release a new model with a headphone jack and a removable battery. Then Samsung released such device and that’s the one I got.

EU just recently mandated that in the future batteries must be able to be replaced by the end user. There’s likely going to be more devices like this soon, not less.

Makes selecting a new phone pretty damn easy. I would have loved a fairphone but sorry, no exceptions.
