What’s the point then? I pay for a game that I’m not even playing just so, what, my numbers of “completed” games goes up?

I’m someone who likes seeing the stats go up as I watch anime. But I do it naturally and over time. This AI idea is like if I were to start an anime, put it on auto-play while I sleep, and when I wake up it’ll be done, without me seeing a single scene.

Damn, I got here too late, I wanted to make this reference too!

Perhaps a dumb question, but I’m not from the U.S, so a genuine question here: Why might the Superbowl be a way for a lot of Americans to learn about ICE?

This is the second comment I see mentioning Upscrolled, and the first I see mentioning Cara. Up until like two minutes ago, I have not heard about either of those, and I think I don’t want to hear about them anyway. I haven’t been using TikTok or Instagram anyway, so I don’t really need a replacement for those apps.

Yeah, it’s just like with cookies. Sure, even without an Adblocker and all that, you could disable the cookies, but that means pressing several more buttons to disable all of the things. So, I feel like most people unfortunately just press accept and move on because it’s the quickest way to get to the information they were searching for.

Elon Musk being against the social media ban on under 16-year-olds is him basically reaching a good conclusion from the wrong equation, because he’s not doing it out of privacy concerns about how everyone would probably have to verify themselves to prove that they’re older than 16 years old. He’s doing it because it would not be good for his business.

I’m not sure how they could implement this without requiring ID verification on every single internet user. I guess I’m not familiar with the topic enough to say if there is another way that they could pursue, but even if there is, at the same time, I’m not too confident in the governments opting for the other options. I’m from neither Spain nor Greece, so I guess I can’t speak on this, but I’m just referring to governments as a general group. And because a lot of different countries are trying to do this at the same time, I’m also not too confident about my own country not doing this at some point, sooner or later.

I feel like this will end up being a cycle. The AI companies are pushing for AI summaries, which then leads to younger Gen Z and the new Gen Alpha being familiar with and preferring AI summaries. This, in turn, leads to other companies implementing AI summaries because they see that’s what the new generations are using, which leads to the new generations being even more accustomed to those summaries, which leads to more companies implementing them, and it’s just an endless cycle.

I’m probably applying too much logic here which Reddit admins don’t seem to like, but… how can defending oneself if something happens (not even preemptively, but after the fact) be threatening violence, while Trump repeatedly saying they’re gonna own Greenland one way or another is not threatening violence?

Donating is great, sure, and they’re probably more likely to stick around if they paid, but just because someone isn’t donating doesn’t mean they won’t be active in the comments or by making posts. Not to mention they might spread the word to friends, some of whom might donate.

Woah, I haven’t heard about this. Are those temp bans on specific subreddits or a site-wide ban for not being pro-Trump?

I don’t often read books and I checked this thread just out of curiosity cause it popped up. I have heard of Watership Down, though, and now knowing the audiobook is by Peter Capaldi, I now know how I want to experience this book if I ever get around to it: the audiobook!

That is something I never understood about Christianity: Why would God place equal importance to “being a good person” and “believe in me or else”?

To me it seems like being a good person should be way more important. But in practice it seems like believing in God is the key and everything else is secondary, like you can be an asshole but just make sure you’re a believer.
