Why don't you go and read scientific papers if you are not interested in opinions and claims?

Humans beings like to exchange ideas and experiences with eachother without being forced to show scientific evidence. Maybe you don't, which is fine, but maybe not tell others what to discuss then?

This is not a scientific journal, if you haven't noticed and picked the wrong url...

It's because people have been using these products since childhood and they don't think about it anymore.

I agree with you personally. I don't use any products and my skin smells very good. And first thing people say when I say that is "people don't tell me I smell bad", because they can't imagine that someone can actually smell good without using any products.

Showering.

Thanks.

Nostalgia.... It was fun to watch that thing move blocks around.

No light is not natural for humans... I feel like I'm missing out on life for four-five months every year. November to March is awful.

PWM at 120 Hz, good luck with your eyes...

I know not everyone is sensitive to it but for the ones who are, it's a major problem. Pain in eyes, headaches, blurry vision, and probably does real damage to the eyes.

Looks ok for a showcase but when doing real work, you usually need tabbed terminals and splits, along with a web browser...

But sure, unixporn is not pictures of people using their computer for work. :)

Guess they were looking for sociopaths for that position.

Please share the company name.

I've had them try that and I just laughed and said no.

Seems like an American thing to completely overdo the process. We have interviews i Europe too, but they are not insane and you don't have to have algorithm knowledge to be a programmer in most companies.

If you are talking about big tech, sure, they are inventing ways to find the absolute top candidates since they have millions of applications.

I once tried lucid dreaming, but couldn't fly into space... Bounced off the dome and woke up. :/

I think almost all RSS feeds are just news aren't they? Maybe there is some collection of rss from personal blogs that are interesting to follow?

 

It. Is. Never. Enough.

You paid hundreds of dollars for a new monitor, but it doesn't matter. More ads, more profits.

I hate it.

Alien Romulus (lemmy.today)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by 1984@lemmy.today to c/movies@lemmy.world
 

I just watched alien romulus and I thought it was really frustrating. What happened to the lethal face huggers and the older, experienced crew of spaceships that got paid like shit by the company?

Now they are hitting face huggers left and right with sticks, and people just get up after having one over their face.

I didn't feel like I cared about the characters. They were actually quite unlikeable. I really miss Ripley. She had enormous amount of character, strength and intelligence. What did we get in this movie? They are all super generic.

Just disappointed. How about you guys?

 

I guess it's just a matter of time before you subscribe to games, and you lose access when you stop paying.

Kagi Snaps (help.kagi.com)
 

This is not revolutionary but it saves some keystrokes when wanting to limit results to certain sites.

Personally I don't really limit anything with Kagi. It's usually just finding what I want without having to do anything.

 

I wish I was a billion dollar company who gets away with stuff like this. Just generally break people's systems, add spyware, lie to users, treat them like shit.

All while making even more money and my stocks keep on going up, because AI, Ai, Ai...

 

The bike knows my height and weight and that's about it. From that it can calculate how my body burns calories?

Every body is very different, so I don't see how any calculation can be accurate.

 

I can't express how much I love hetzner doing this. There is a huge market for people who just need some instances and reliable/cheap object storage to run their apps.

 

If you have money, you can pay the bail and get released, while poor people can't.

I don't see why people with money should get benefits in the legal system?

 

Is gen z intentionally refusing to change their behavior for work, or what is the reason for this?

Kind of think it's cool that they remain themselves.

 

Similar to America, Europe is also artificially trying to make consumers choose native cars, by making Chinese ones more expensive.

This article describes the real reason behind the push back to the office. It's about rich people gambling on real estate and now office buildings are empty.

These same people own newspapers and media channels which is why their crying voices are being pushed.
