What do we tell the god of heat?
Did you come up with your username while you were jumping in the pool? :)
I mean, technically, I guess (insert Futurama technical correct meme), but with that defintion everything is a puzzle.
I just breathed in, what do I do next? I can’t inhale more air. I have to think fast! Maybe if I breath out, I can then breath in again… It worked! Amazing!
Wow, so the “x” on screen means I have to press the “x” on my controler while it’s highlighted!?
Damn, thanks for spoiling that puzzle!
I think questions with “how”, " why", “where” etc. tend to be open. An example for a closed question would be: “Do you use apps to learn a new language?”
Maybe you could argue about “what” and “who” questions, but I prefer uninteresting questions to be filtered out by votes instead of rules, anyway, so I don’t care.
Also, even a “bad” question can be saved by a good answer, e.g. a report on language learning apps.
Basically I see two options:
This works for advertisers and based on your “profile” you are strongly influenced by the ads shown to you. So might just as well give your data to Meta and Google, who already sell profiled (and not individualised) ads.
This doesn’t work for advertisers and you are not strongly influence by the ads shown to you. So the advertisers could just as well put a link somewhere and hope it is found by their target audience.
Also I don’t my browser, my OS or any other core component on my system to be in bed with people who are trying to extract as much money as possible from me.
There are radio stations, financed through ads. And they check if people are listening by calling random persons to ask them what station they are listening to.
So this is a viable business model and nobody is stopping anybody from putting plain pictures and links on sites and just estimate the page visits, but online advertisers want to know more. They always want more.
At the same time, a browser is the essential software to browse the web. So this is as if your TV was like:
Yo, many people mute their TV during commercials and don’t pay attention, which kills the poor networks. So I made a deal with advertisers and will check what your doing, while I provide unmutable ads , but don’t worry, your privacy is very important to us and we only care about providing to you the best TV experience possible.
Thank you for being genuinely interested in the opinion of others and for explaining culture differences.
Maybe movies about school shootings will be this generation’s Vietnam films
An API that unlocks DLC? That sounds like… wait what community is this? (looks around)
Is that a wooden IP address? Nice eye patch by the way. Cheers matey!
People already have problems comprehending orders of magnitude with base 10. At base 12 things would only be worse.
If anything we should go binary to better understand the difference between a billion and a million. 🥸
It being a youngling couch only means that it is not off limit.
The only thing that might buy it some time is if it came in a paper box.
You know what else lasts 10 years? That’s right! Our extended car warranty and I am glad to have finally reached you!
If you become their costumer - joke’s on you, because now you are paying them to pay Google.
“I want my damages covered, your Honour.”
“I see, so what are your damages?”
“Well, how much do you think I can get?”
“Are you driving a car right now?”
Or the reporting is just bad, as you said.
