I've been reading articles for years about how Google say they're going to open the RCS API to 3rd-Party apps but they have yet to do so.

I think you're a great parent who interrogates the media that your child is consuming!

The aesthetic of Palworld feeds that cynicism; it's charming and colorful and awfully brutal. Parents should be aware of the game's content and the game should probably get a Teen rating (at least in the US; not sure how PEGI does their rating).

Yeah because taking your pets to an arena-style fight to "fainting" is also a great model for the kids lmao

Pokémon's dog fighting aside, Palworld has a certain cynicism that imo takes it out of the realm of a kids game. The game allows you to capture humans and then has a little blurb about how it's "inhumane" to do so. There's a niche for an "adult" monster capture game that Palworld is filling. I'm curious about how the game will continue to develop in early access. They have a lot of funding & hype, let's see if they can see it through to a full release (or wallow in development like so many other Early Access survival games).

To bring that forward a generation, there was a period around 2013-2014 when vaping was brand new and schools hadn't written any rules yet.

I remember kids vaping in class and some teachers being kinda okay with it, or at least turning a blind eye. Granted, only like 1 or 2 people in the school had vapes.

IMO, modular ports is not the main selling point for Framework. I was sold on their commitment to a platform that is repairable/upgradable.

I have a "typical" set of ports (2x USB-C, HDMI, USB-A) that's on my laptop most of the time. I also have the 2.5GbE adapter that I use occasionally.

This summary is missing some key points from the article - in particular, the conclusion. 86% might have been too much to save...

I've found that grindr is trying to be more like tinder and less like the hookup app that it once was. Personally, I've been using Sniffies for hookups...haven't touched grindr in like 2 years 💅🏻

it's a very convenient place for the app to load the next page of content...

here's hoping that housing prices crash soon 🙏🏻

800mg of THC is a massive dose lmao

most gummies have like 5mg - 15mg of THC per dose

The website haveibeenpwned says the original breach date was 18 December 2020, with the information becoming available on 18 July 2023, with a total of 3,943 compromised accounts. The site notes that as well as all the above information, the leak even includes each individual's t-shirt size.

Looks like someone in charge of organizing that event got phished. This seems like the type of info that can fit into an excel sheet.
