  • Real question… Why is this kind of thing posted to World News? It’s a horrifying story, but it’s also one incident in one location. Me knowing about it doesn’t help me or anyone else in any way. I guess you could hope that it inspires some gun owners to better secure their firearms, but that’s about it.

    This kinda one-off incidents were all over Reddit. It just exists to stoke people’s anger most of the time, but it’s also super easy to push a specific agenda by posting these horrible, local stories.


  • Getting people riled up about abortion allowed them to get a large segment of voters to support their party. Anti-choice people are largely emotional, single-issue voters. Once you’ve convinced people that your opponents want to allow “baby killing”, you can pretty much count on their votes without having to actually cater to their needs.





  • The only real negative points that Spirit Island gets from me is that it can be a bit anticlimactic. This is true for a lot of coop games, but it seems like we always know about 2-3 turns in advance that we’re gonna win. Then you’re just kinda going through the motions. The events expansion helps a bit here but doesn’t solve it entirely.

    It’s still definitely my favorite coop for sure.


  • I have a Pixel 5a and have the same issues in maps. It loves to replace the dot on the map (which seems accurate) with the giant “low accuracy” text, which just gets in the way. When I “calibrate” it has me take pictures of the area around me.

    I don’t want to be a conspiracy nut but it feels purposeful so that they can just get more photo data. I wish I could just turn the “calibration” off and just let me be in “low accuracy” mode.


  • That’s wild to me that you like YT music’s ux more. What recommendation things do you like about YT music?

    I find Yt music to be really frustrating. I liked Google play music, but the awkward integration with YouTube is weird. Why are my liked YouTube videos, by default, mixed up with my liked songs? Who would want that ever?
