Revisionism. Just last week you assured me that she was going to win, and that the republican party would collapse on itself. Hang on to your ego.

WRT the first panel, I feel that way too.

That said, is this ragebait?

They do! They're where I leave all of my used motor oil, dead batteries, and bedbug-ridden mattresses.

Come on. Just because you can subvert their policies by dropping stuff there indiscriminately doesn't mean you should. Most of them say, right on the bin, that they're for donations of clothing and shoes only.

Does honesty exist on a spectrum, in your view? If not, have you ever met an honest person?

We recommend four widely applicable high-impact (i.e. low emissions) actions with the potential to contribute to systemic change and substantially reduce annual personal emissions: having one fewer child (an average for developed countries of 58.6 tonnes CO2-equivalent (tCO2e) emission reductions per year), living car-free (2.4 tCO2e saved per year), avoiding airplane travel (1.6 tCO2e saved per roundtrip transatlantic flight) and eating a plant-based diet (0.8 tCO2e saved per year). These actions have much greater potential to reduce emissions than commonly promoted strategies like comprehensive recycling (four times less effective than a plant-based diet) or changing household lightbulbs (eight times less).

Too bad more people didn't have their minds changed by Paine's "Agrarian Justice". What a banger.

Too bad about all the lead in them. They're not as bad as some brands, though.

I'm sure this has been discussed and is being worked on (I did see some mentions of notification system plans in the DevBlogs and portal), but I just wanted to chime in and say that I'm eagerly awaiting the day that the app is able to push a notification letting me know that my current travel or action is complete!

I recognize that this feature is likely more tricky than it seems, as the app would need to occasionally check steps vs current action even when it's not open, increasing resource usage and battery drain, though I could be way off base here, as I'm not too familiar with the intricacies of mobile app development.

I wonder whether, upon the app being closed or minimized, it could pass the number of steps remaining in whatever task to the device's step logging api or a minimal step timer widget of some sort, then roughly handle it without having to constantly query the game server itself.

It's not terribly vital, considering the presence of the "saved steps" system, but I'm still looking forward to it. It'll be a nice reminder to keep moving and progressing!

Did anyone actually read the whole article? These comments sorta read like the answer is no.

The researchers say that their findings prove no active collaboration between TikTok and far-right parties like the AfD but that the platform’s structure gives bad actors an opportunity to flourish. “TikTok's built-in features such as the ‘Others Searched For’ suggestions provides a poorly moderated space where the far-right, especially the AfD, is able to take advantage,” Miazia Schüler, a researcher with AI Forensics, tells WIRED.

A better headline might have been "TikTok algorithm gamed by far-right AfD party in Germany", but I doubt that would drive as many clicks.

Here's a couple of photos from 2005 found on the CEO's public Flickr page:

The CEO is the guy in the middle in the left photo. The photo on the right was taken the same night, possibly by the CEO, but certainly uploaded by him. At the very least he had no problem with posting it publicly, and has decided not to remove it over the years.
