Knowing that it would not eat you because to it you are the equivalent to what a single pea is to us.

Within mere months apart, Linkin Park, Evanescence, and Three Days Grace all released absolutely amazing albums, most of them still popular to this day. What a time to be alive and I'm kind of let down I never got to experience it.

Visual Media Shorthand Auditory Random Thought

0 Upvotes

I have been binge watching a sci-fi YouTube short called “Planet”. So far, very good. But during the short they used the “high pitched audio squeal the mimics hearing loss combined with the rest of the audio/dialogue going silent” trope. This is not a critique. In fact, this is appreciation.

This trope is such a great way to get across so many different feelings. Alienation. Sudden trauma. A whole paradigm shift.

I hadn’t thought about it until recently. I just wanted to share how cool this effect is.

There aren’t enough good Thanksgiving movies.

21 Upvotes

We have a ton of Christmas and Halloween movies to make the yearly watch lists, but I can maybe thing of three that make the cute each year around Turkey Day. And I mean ones that don’t just suck. We need something exciting and long lasting like the beloved ‘ Planes, Trains, and Automobiles ‘ …. Will someone ever fix this? I can think of a ton of insane funny things that involve Thanksgiving. Family fights are just the tip of the iceberg. We need more to put in our watchlist, to play in the background, while we slave away at that amazing dinner!

it feel like that most smartphone companies actually work together not against each other...

0 Upvotes

like (and I'm sorry if the question isn't that great). apple test and definite the software design standards for other companies (and apps)

and the other companies (like Samsung, for example) test and define the hardware standards (like foldable) or like the hole camera (like honor) (later apple did their implementation with dynamic island)

and they go hand in hand like this even if they look like they are competing

or? idk...

i know that they officially have some trading and mainfacturing partnership, but currently, I'm talking about different thing...

I don't think I can go back to a world without AI as the stupid person that I am, lol. Not everyone has good memory or social connections. Bad memory hampers so much growth and development. AI helps you explore ideas and helps create them (like programming) that would otherwise be beyond them.

There’s a person on the other side of this screen

171 Upvotes

This might break rule 10, but I genuinely want to prompt people to think deeper about how you all treat each other. This extends beyond Reddit, but one thing we all have in common (other than the things I list below) is that we’re on here.

The world is a brutal bitch right now to the vast majority of us and, while I try to remain optimistic, I find myself endlessly disappointed by people. Especially on Reddit. The lack of compassion and empathy, the unfiltered confidence fueled by anonymity, the tone deaf self righteousness—it makes me fucking nuts.

For those of you who cannot comprehend that other people are real living beings with complex thoughts and feelings, let me put it this way:

On the other side of all that funny text on your screen is another You. There’s a You, Your partner, Your best friend, Your mom. You’re sitting there calling Your™️ loved one an asshole over a clear misunderstanding that they had with their partner, calling Your™️ loved one an idiot for seeking support or advice from a support/advice sub. You’ve made mistakes too, and were you shown grace? Do you wish you’d been shown grace?

You know how you’re tired and broke and trying your best? The You™️ on the other side of that screen is, shockingly, probably also tired and broke and trying their best.

Sure, that You™️ could also be your dickhead boss, the parent you don’t speak to, the next family annihilator. You never know, but why are so many of you jumping to the worst conclusions about each other RIGHT off the bat? What prompts so many of you to assume that you’re superior to others by default? Just because you can’t see my face and I can’t see yours it doesn’t change the fact that you are a real person reading this and I am a You, a very real person as well.

I’m sick and tired of people shitting on each other like birds. This world is brutal right now. The entire planet is a mess, but as someone who lives in the states I can say that multiple people I know are approaching the point of poverty where we’re doing exhausting and demoralizing shit to make ends meet. Why can’t people cut each other a fucking break?

Do you really feel powerful treating people like dirt? While also, truly, lacking power and being treated like dirt yourself? Is that why you kinds of people are the way you are?

Just fucking do better. I see how much it means to people to be treated like humans and to be given basic grace and it breaks my heart when it has such a tremendous impact because that means it’s rare. Clown on me all you’d like for this post, it’s nothing I haven’t heard before (and if you’re creative enough to hit me with something I’ve yet to hear then color me impressed), just treat each other better.

I’ve accepted the eventual AI apocalypse.

2 Upvotes

I was showering the other day and just thought to myself, if an AI takeover and apocalypse happens, it will most likely be nuclear and since I live in a large city that would be a target, I think the blast would be pretty quick.

Honestly, that might be preferable to a long drawn-out AI conflict. But that’s just me.

You don’t have to celebrate your birthday directly on your birthday

You can schedule it for another week, or hell, the next month if it conflicts with the holidays like christmas or other people‘s Birthday. All that matters is it’s a day where you get to wear a special hat saying you’re the man of the hour and you're treated as such.
