You don't know me. McDonald's fucked up my nuggets order this morning so now I'm a man without anything to live for

We should be talking about the average person being able to win >50% of the time, not the ideal human who wins on an off-chance.

Personally, I'm guessing I'd be somewhere in the range of a medium sized calf

I've never understood the whole "we shouldn't explore space because earth is great" thing. Everyone obviously agrees that Earth is amazing, most of all the people who talk about settling and terraforming mars. Who loves earth more than the people who want to make other planets more like earth?

This is the real insidious thing about internet enshittification. It's run by publicly traded corporations so it's not enough just to squeeze every possible dollar out of your customers, you have to keep ramping up the squeeze. Even once you're bringing in billions and billions of pure profit with a product that everyone loves, you have an actual legal duty to your shareholders to make it worse in an effort to try to grow the profit even more

The Competition Bureau approved the Sun Media purchase in light of the Tervita ruling, as Postmedia had pointed to the efficiencies it expected to gain from layoffs

Unbelievable that this shit has been considered a legal trump card for the last 40+ years. We truly do live in a clown world.

The rest of us are hearing this for the first time.

Not me, I grew up with one of those people and he was awful. And because he was the only Trekkie in the whole town, pretty much everyone I grew up with has a terrible opinion of star trek and its fans. I bet a lot of the negative perception of the show comes from people like that. People like that are not that common, but neither are outspoken star trek fans in general, so most people probably have a pretty equal chance of meeting either type of fan.

"Somewhat reasonable"

The biggest housing bubble of all time isn't world news?
