I haven’t been to a chipotle, but it sounds from reading here that it offers the same thing Subway and Harveys do. No presumptions, no need to ask them to remove anything. You ask for exactly what you want, and as a bonus, you even get to watch it being made. For people that have allergies, sensitivities, and many of the various food related neurodivergencies, like super taster, hypersensory, ARFID… basically anything that makes you feel like a jerk ordering from other places, it’s refreshing that our order is easier rather than harder. Feel like less of a burden.

Umm, is it possible you might be taking this personally? Your response seems super unnecessarily aggressive.

At this point, yeah, a bit. But it is a common racism to have right now, and the first step on the path to getting rid of it is knowing you have it.

Plus, the headline is really leading in that direction too, the article itself makes it pretty clear that it is a real, reputable product. Their wording in the headline is technically correct, they specifically call it a company “you’ve likely never encountered” rather than “noone has heard of”, the company has already been at the forefront before and announced that they would be again in 2025, this is fulfilling that promise.

Yeah, we should boycott all social media… hey, wait a minute…

Are you worried people with guns might try to take your money? Why take chances? You should hire these people with guns who will for sure take your money.

That’s the “obvious plant” logo. A search of “obvious plant dylan” comes up with many much higher quality sources. Without needing to know how to reverse image search. “Dylan meme” also finds versions of it without needing to recognise the logo.

My concern is, part of the design of the app is to know when the user is underage and detect when they are sending a nude. While I appreciate them putting a ‘speed bump’ there… detecting that specific event could also be an attack vector. Hopefully, we can trust the company that removed “do no evil” from their mission statement to do no evil here…

The phrase “minding their own business” has a completely different and much more sinister meaning in this context though.

Yeah, the electronic device sound is coil whine, mostly produced by power transformers, but a few other things too. Some do it loudly enough or low pitch enough for everyone to hear, others are quiet enough or high pitch enough that only people like us can hear them.

Yeah, I have a similar thing. Despite my whole household getting sick with something and me not taking precautions, I rarely get any of the symptoms that would come from the immune system doing it’s job, and my symptoms from the disease itself are always mild and short lived. I still take precautions against anything new going around, since my presumption is that even if I have my immune system to thank for this, it can still only protect me against threats it knows.

Yeah, I think most people that have 10 or more years experience with linux or unix or other forms think that it has gotten much easier to start out than when they did it, sure it was a struggle back then, but it’s been ten years and I have an easy time with all of it now, so it must be easier now. It may be a bit easier than it was 10 years ago, or 20 years ago, but it’s still very much not “accessible”. Even most steam deck users have a hard time with the very simple, presentable, accessible version that comes on that.

It’s easy to lose track of how hard something is when it hasn’t been for you in a long time. But linux is unfortunately still very inaccessible for the vast majority of people. It is constantly moving in the right direction, and generally worth getting through the hard part to make it to the other side, but you need motivation to do so, as it will fight back for a long time. But, windows and mac have it almost as bad. Neither one is quite as hard to transition to as linux, but there is still a decent barrier to switch between them. Once linux is around that same level of barrier, that’s when we can expect the numbers to come up notably.

Does your phone not let you teach it new words and modify corrective behaviours?

I only ever had to do it once, like 15 years ago now and my changes have transferred to each new phone with the software.

Yeah, they had the choice between making an effort to be a better person, or simply deluding themselves that they are already better, all their negative traits are in-fact positive traits, everyone else is the problem for suggesting they aren’t already perfect.

Delusion is easier if you can trick yourself that easily.

I suppose it depends on if you can write a fun story around either one. Since every rule about vampires that sticks basically only has one thing in common, the writing in which it was featured was popular. If what you write around it isn’t very good, then no, I guess retroactively that isn’t how vampires work. But if it becomes popular and part of peoples canon in the future, then yes, that is exactly how vampires work, now.

Isn’t that the entire reason behind the rule, so that they could write a way for the vampires to circumvent it. They established a fake rule that never used to exist and then proceeded to prop it up over and over until the reader believed it to be law, and then when they least expected it, it was dashed to pieces in an instant.

Of course it’s cheating, but cheating at what exactly? Cheating at a rule that never even used to exist, was written specifically to later be broken in that very same book. It’s like any puzzle design in writing, like murder mystery, they usually create the puzzle backwards by thinking of fun solutions to problems they could then create to lead there.

I’m not sure I like milk as an analogy to torrenting, as a healthy torrent has the users uploading too…

It was step one, not intended to be the entire end-goal. The goal is to make it obvious that profits aren’t the way healthcare should be done, as it is directly at odds with the purpose. Almost every other country in the world has removed profit from healthcare, or never added it in the first place. Even if you want to keep the rest of capitalism, it doesn’t go here.

He definitely got the conversation started. He got alot of people to say out loud that “they kind of agree with him”. And that is how change happens, when alot of people realise they were already thinking the same thing but didn’t want to be the first one to say it. He opened the flood gates.

It should, they are not giving any proper reason to, just trying to cheaply get more money from you wasting more of your time. They are wrong, they should feel bad. Making a video with the express purpose of trying to milk money out of it is not a successful strategy long-term. Making good content that people want to watch to the end without being told to is much harder, but actually works.

“Wait for the end” or “the last one will shock you” is because the video gets an algorithm bump if people watch it all the way to the end. Only reason. To make more money.

Thank you for taking updates as seriously as you do. Making sure to only update when it is overall a good idea to do so. I’m sure you get no shortage of flak for being out of date. Thank you for being able to stand up to that.

Your well thought out decision process on everything is what reassures me I found a good home. And your open and honest posts about every major decision are nice to read when I initially disagree with a decision made, until I see why it was made.
