Between 2014 & today, market appears to have determined neither are relevant. Corporations appear not to have found captivating use cases as well. Given this, is the lack of understanding to be expected?
Compare to, like, folks understanding differences between Instagram & TikTok. More people understand because it’s relevant to them, regardless of the average Lemming’s view of the platforms.

Ah, I mean imagine writing a comment dissing Biden and having someone vote for someone even worse. Pragmatism prevailed for me.
But any genocide enabler deserves max criticism one way or another, even if that’s pragmatically limited to private criticism.
Ya feel much cleaner in the tum. First I’ve read of aches from Beyondpossible
Maybe it was rude of us not to share with the whole class.

This was obviously a challenge and thus my brain was forced to reverse it on the fly
Say we suddenly snubbed Israel hard, what’s the big fear with Middle East security & having a country there who’s buddy-buddy with the US? (was wondering today and seems you might know)
They do love backronyms
We’re doing a good job drowning out the hate. Like to follow the rules ‘round here, wouldn’t wanna add to mod queue unnecessarily if it gives them the useless chore of simply dismissing it. More useful to get some discussion on what the rules should be, too. Thought for sure I’d find a reportable reason when I looked them up.
This was the way honestly. Worth writing letters to the White House & the campaign, but publicly… imagine helping the impeached felon* win shudder (at very little benefit to those being slaughtered and starved)
Kamala you better keep this promise!
*Edit: added “impeached” cuz felons in general can reform, an impeached felon though isn’t a good look

The image is a Venn diagram that compares the overlapping qualities between "Eligible to be President", "Would be a good President", and "Unusually vocal about love of Venn diagrams". The central overlapping area contains the text "Kamala Harris", while the eligibility and vocality areas contain the text “Me”.
Title text: >Hard to imagine political rhetoric more microtargeted at me than 'I love Venn diagrams. I really do, I love Venn diagrams. It's just something about those three circles.'

A man who escaped from an Oregon state prison nearly 30 years ago and stole the identity of a deceased child was captured in Georgia on Tuesday, according to authorities.

A "My Little Resume" in the style of My Little Pony, with some sections redacted.
Rough OCR:
This little pony went to in He graduated with highest honors and even received a departmental award for academic excellence! While at he cultivated an ongoing love for...
Computer Science & Mathematics!
For two years he worked as a tutor for the Computer Science department. He loves passing on his knowledge and getting everyone excited about computer science!
One summer he worked for the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He developed an online tool for analyzing thermal neutron triple-axis spectrometry data. He even had his very own nuclear reactor to play with!
The next year he had an Extreme Blue internship with IBM. He worked with a team of interns at the Almaden Research Center to develop technology related to online shopping. But he's not allowed to talk about it too much! (He signed a non-disclosure)
After graduation he galloped off to work as a radio DJ, and freelance web developer. He produces stunning, high quality websites for all the nice ponies hanging out in the
For a few months he dabbled in domestication, working for a startup in San Francisco called. He spearheaded major projects, infrastructure upgrades and code cleaning frenzies while ensuring that thousands of hardworking ponies got quality, catered lunches of grains, oats, and grasses every day! The daily plough just wasn't for him though, so he threw off the bit and bridle and galloped back to He still does contract work for on other companies on occasion, and in the fall he'll be heading off to a computer science Ph.D. program at the University of Washington!
The adventure is far from over... What will this little pony do next, who knows??

Amazon's process for inspecting returned items is "broken," consultant says.
![Dirty diaper resold on Amazon ruined a family business, report says](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/ee43728e-9ae1-4269-b5fb-142e3fd9dd85.jpeg?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
Summary:
Amazon's returns process is a complete dumpster fire - they'll slap a "new" sticker on your used crap and put it right back up for sale. Case in point: a small biz got screwed when Amazon resold their poopy swim diaper as brand new, tanking their company. Thankfully, Amazon took immediate action (JK). At least sellers now at least have the option to opt-out of returns being sold as new.
iOS 17: Do you make it a point to use Safari’s Private Browsing? Supposedly Safari prevents cross-site tracking, but Private tabs give peace of mind for some reason.

Attached what I think are my relevant settings. I mainly use Safari for iCloud Private Relay.
Maybe it makes it harder for a site to track me if I’m using Private Browsing versus using the regular mode without clearing website data, eh?
Too bad Tab Groups don’t isolate cookies (and other data), seems like that would solve for some of my use cases. And too bad Private Tabs forget cookies when they’re not used for a while / you run out of RAM. That would also solve for some use cases.
I’d like to pin a dozen or so completely isolated tabs and have them always maintain my cookies. Because I can’t, I use Tab Groups for a few sites I use frequently, and launch a new Private Tab for everything else.

Software that promises to detect AI-produced text fails to deliver.
![ChatGPT outperforms undergrads in intro-level courses, falls short later](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/3c19f482-1956-4b4d-8e7e-f64eff1e13cb.jpeg?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
Researchers create 30 fake student accounts to submit model-generated responses to real exams. Professors grade the 200 or 1500 word responses from the AI undergrads and gave them better grades than real students 84% of the time. 6% of the bot respondents did get caught, though... for being too good. Meanwhile, AI detection tools? Total bunk.
Will AI be the new calculator... or the death of us all (obviously the only alternative).
Note: the software was NOT as good on the advanced exams, even though it handled the easier stuff.

A pamphlet from the New Mexico Beef Council that says “Learn About Beef With The Beef Kids” and shows four children in front of a barn that says “BEEF ✔️”
How do you get people to wash their vegetables when you're at their house and you don't wanna seem rude?
So awkward, but come on it says right there on the package to wash those mushrooms or whatever it is… You’re not their mom but you don’t wanna eat feces or whatever ended up on the produce. A quick rinse is never going to be perfect but it’s better than nothing.
In the absence of legitimate suggestions, commiseration is welcome too 😉

A three-panel comic strip. In the first panel, a man in a suit (Alex Jones) is sitting at a desk with a banner behind him that says "Info Wars". Offscreen, someone says "Cut!! That's a wrap for today!"
In the second panel, “later”, Jones asks a green frog washing dishes "Everything ok, babe?"
In the third panel, the frog cries and demands "How long do we have to hide who we are??"

> Pesticide atrazine can turn male frogs into females
> Atrazine, one of the world’s most widely used pesticides, wreaks havoc with the sex lives of adult male frogs, emasculating three-quarters of them and turning one in 10 into females, according to a new study by University of California, Berkeley, biologists.
> The 75 percent that are chemically castrated are essentially “dead” because of their inability to reproduce in the wild, reports UC Berkeley’s Tyrone B. Hayes, professor of integrative biology.
