Yeah, the way search engines have implemented LLMs have made it much worse.
You can go on google or duckduckgo and search for one thing, click the top link and click back after a few seconds. And the order of results has changed. So the second link you thought might have been correct(and was), is now 5-6 or lower. And the new second link is even worse than the first and usually generative content catered to the first link you clicked(wrongly).
No, people who commonly do bad things, will often justify it to themselves and others by thinking most people do the same thing. And despite their protesting and arguing, they’re pretty much always wrong.
I’ve heard more than one petty thief confidently claim that “everyone” steals something like a candybar when they go to the store. And it’s why there are so many stories of cheaters accusing their partner of cheating.
I wouldn’t put it past him to pardon a dead man(he was the only one who died, the other victims have already been released from the hospital with minor injuries).
It’s actually very rare that Hollywood makes non-nature movies that use correct animal sounds(and it’s often not correct in animal focused ones either). For birds they especially tend to use sounds that are exclusive to North America, even if the setting is in on another continent.
There’s the classic of kids asking why they’ve never heard the “ribbit ribbit” sound in nature: The pacific tree frog only lives on the west coast of North America.
And let’s not forget almost every single time you see a bear “roaring”, it’s almost always mixed in with lion roars and such. In real life a black bear “roar” sounds more like a cow going “moo”.
Do one of those minecraft modpacks with a thousand mods count as a compilation? Because you could take out over 80% of them, and create a bunch of smaller packs for variation.
Almost 60% of Cuban-Americans voted for Trump, the second time…
I tried looking up some communities after I saw people complain about them. And 99.9999% of it is people venting about being told for the 50th time in twenty years that they’ll change their mind about having kids any day now. Or doctors refusing hysterectomies to unmarried women because they don’t have their husband consent(this still regularly happens in the US and Europe. To the point where there are resources where you can look up doctors who aren’t living in the 50s). Then you see the community brought up by other people and they’re often described as filled with people who want to murder children.
It’s honestly quite wild how much people take those generalized accusations at face value because they saw one or two peoeple say something inappropriate.
About thirty thousand people, it’s in the Mojave, one of the stopping places before entering a national park, military installation and the local college has a special section on their website about offering programs to military personnel, specially about HVAC.
I’ve been to places like that, and I strongly recommend never staying overnight. And if you have to, stay in your room and do not go to a local establishment that serves alchol.
Yes, that’s literally normal.
The Harvard University endowment, valued at $53.2 billion as of June 30, 2024, is the largest academic endowment in the world
Regardless of the game, there was a recent change that went into effect on March 1.
So you install a “f2p” game, get ten rounds(which takes a few minutes) and then you have to subscribe to play anymore, and the only option is $30 for a year? And it’s missing features that are on the website version.
Yeah, that is deserved rating.
Translation:
We know the newest low end cards are a terrible upgrade(it’s probably downgrade for many), so they wont sell and we want to make up the loss on our artificially bloated prices by increasing them even more.
I really wish Intel would move faster, so they and AMD can start competing for proper consumer GPUs. Because nvidia has clearly made up their mind that the AI market is the way forwards and it almost seems like they’re trying to kill off their video game department by increasing prices and decreasing quality each generation.
This is a limitation of the (ancient) engine the game is on, as I understand it.
Old engine isn’t always bad. It is if you do like Todd and just slap more and more plugins and technology on top and call it a new engine, instead of fixing underlying issues or rewriting/updating old parts.
Which is why Starfield NPCs walk onto tables and become owls when the camera zooms into conversations, etc: It is the same code that is used in Skyrim and partly Oblivion. And Todd Howard doesn’t want devs doing silly things like fixing twenty year old code, he wants new and bigger.
I can’t believe it was that incident that revealed Snopes as a nazi outlet(they basically said it was impossible to tell and talked about “not being able to read his mind”. And they have made zero attempts at correcting the article or changing their stance, so they stand by what was written)
The Librarian of Congress also appoints and oversees the Register of Copyrights of the U.S. Copyright Office and has broad responsibilities around copyright, extending to electronic resources and fair use provisions outlined in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

A puppet in charge of copyright and DMCA, combined with the Take it Down act, etc. are just steps on the path of ultimate censorship and government control of published content.
No, and the electrical outlets really don’t help.
Thank you so much! Recently I have been trying to recall what bird made that sound in so many games and movies over the last decades. For some reason it is often put into jungle or lush biomes in games. And it has really annoyed me that I didn’t remember what it was called.
