I believe this is called an “impression”.

Where did you hear that setting your phone on fire works fix the screen? Out of curiosity.

I thought mine was funny because I had not seen that, and I am humbled. Damn. Fukken saved.

Interesting! I’ll update my post, it makes sense there would likely be variability in how it presents due to biology. My experience isn’t necessarily the default.

That’s the prevailing theory, yes, but as far as I’ve found there’s not empirical evidence to back it up. The theory does make perfect sense to me, though!

Also, as a sufferer, I’ve noticed it almost always requires sunlight or something with close to the same frequencies. Most artificial lights don’t trigger it *for me.

Contrived acronym. I much prefer Photic Sneeze Reflex, it’s easier to remember and doesn’t sound like bullshit 😂

User Feedback, the Crawling Chaos, the Haunter of the Dark… I feel its tendrils of madness reaching for my mind even now. I am not ready for this. Ph’nglui mglw’nafh caffeine R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn! Iä! Iä!

This is about the shittiest argument you could make. Good luck in your search, maybe you’ll find some self-awareness along the way.

Ugh, of course those people would point to any source that supports their current claim, without vetting the source itself. They’ll even tell you that of course they don’t support antisemitism, while spouting that antisemitic Irving shit all day, and that’s okay because they pick and choose only what they agree with out of the rhetoric. As though they couldn’t find sources that support their point without the concomitant antisemitism.

First and foremost, then, I’d go about this by not denying the genocide in Gaza and not saying stuff such as “I bet you love Palestine” like it’s a pejorative, spacecadet.

My second point would be to recognise that there is no moral or ethical reason not to pirate Irving’s works. If you were able to find it at a library, it would be there because someone paid a publisher for the copy and likely some kind of library license. Some of that goes to Irving. There is no way to deny him profit and acquire his work legally. So, pirate it. Fuck that guy.

Yikes. How do you handle it - try not to think about it, stay out of the house? Dark humour and fucked up jokes? Do you interact with her much? Any opinions on her?

Edit: sorry haha I know this isn’t an AMA 😅

It’d be a Pyrrhic victory, no question. Real “I’ll break your fists with my face” energy.

Why do you say you don’t care about climate change, and what would make you care? Climate change is one of those things that’s going to suck for all of us, so even if you have no empathy for anyone else, it’s kinda surprising that you don’t at least care about how it will affect you.

I laughed out loud when I read the title of this post. When I’m helping my customers with their domain DNS records, I always analogise DNS to “a phone book for the internet”. I love that we’ve come full circle and phone books are “DNS for the phone system” 😂 (also goddamn does this make me feel old 😭)

ITT: “you are not allowed to like things I don’t like”

However you feel about how the models are trained, telling people they’re not allowed to like the results is going to be a losing argument. People like what they like, and you can argue with them but you won’t stop it 🤷

Or just accept that not everyone will be having a secure conversation every time at first, but more will be secured as more and more people like me convince our family members to use it and eventually we transition everyone away from SMS?

No, of course not, why would we build a critical mass of users like that?

Since they removed SMS support almost my entire family and my friends uninstalled signal, except a few who keep it to talk to me, and my half dozen friends privacy-conscious enough to care. Dozens of people, down to eight if you don’t count me, in my circles alone. Objectively, removing SMS support harmed Signal’s popularity and made everyone less secure. The argument for why they did it was at best myopic and also, in my opinion, utter bullshit.

I’m just saying, this is an arms race and nobody will win.

I’m not rewarding your clickbait bullshit on such a contentious topic, Account That Is Only A Week Old. Summarise the points in the video, say what you found interesting/agree/disagree with, whatever, but contribute something instead of just leaving this steaming pile here for everyone else to step over.

Hard agree! I just mistook you to mean that it was just a couple of rogue actors without any real support, is all - my b.
