What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Wired did a series of articles about this (before they turned into a shopping site) here is one from 2009. They're pretty fun to read, including how the NSA may have solved the first three before the CIA. I'm sure that went down well.

Wired isn’t a shopping site?
Sure aren't. This person's response to you is a string of weird lies.
Isn't*
I just omitted the "they" of "they sure aren't [a shopping site]"
No?
(OP implied it was for some reason)
Oh, huh
The reason is that they are a lying weirdo
I just looked at their homepage for the first time in years. I only counted 8 'the best sex toys for every body' articles (that's an actual title). So, it seems they are better, not Chris Anderson better though.
Personalized ads...
Why are you lying? The closest thing to what you are talking about is an article called "What Should Your Sex Toys Be Made of?".
Then toward the bottom there is a buying guide, something people want to know: What products are worth buying.
But sure, paint them as some piece of shit doing nothing but hocking products.

The title on the homepage is 'The Best Sex Toys for Every Body' just like I said. Wired used to be much better.
That's not what you said. Lying again.
what is wrong with you you little angry nerd
yeah liars are only annoying to nerds, great point weirdo
freaking paywalled
Wired is a soft paywall, clear your cookies, or use a different browser and you should be ok
ah, I was on my phone. I can see it now on my desktop.
