This is more like triple bolting the door but leaving a window open. There's nothing inherently wrong with the door, its still secure but you can bypass the secure option with a less secure method.
This is the real takeaway, if you have a forgot password button that bypasses everything then none of it is anything more than a login accelerator.
"Episodes in which it IS Penny's boat, number 3 will shock you."
I agree with you.
And youre right that the article doesnt focus on the algorithmic hate factory which to me is the main difference between social media and traditional media. For instance, and this is just anecdotal, my grandma who had nothing besides an analog telephone and broadcast tv became just as polarized and angry as someone with social media just by reading and watching Fox news (and eventually OAN and Newsmax) all day. I cant imagine that Facebook would have made it any worse.
The algorithm is probably accelerating the polarization pipeline, but i guess my point was that social media isnt necessarily doing anything new or distinct. Its doing the same thing Rush Limbaugh was doing on the radio 25 years ago, its just on a new frontier.
The 24 hour news cycle was already throwing sensational controversial stories up and speculating wildly if not outright lying about to hold on to eyeballs. The longer you watch, the more commercials you see. Etc etc.
I would love to see a study of social media vs traditional media to see whether the mean time to full polarization changes and if so, how significantly.
Good Ted talk!
Nope not really. People were already mad but its a lot easier to get mad publicly on the internet than in person. But Im sure the same people could get just as angry watching biased news channels but they cant start arguments with anyone in that context.
And also, don't forget Betteridges Law of Headlines.
I wouldn't mind letting James Wan have a crack at a Star Trek film though. He made decent work of Aquaman and Malignant is basically already a Star Trek TNG type of plot.
Oh ok that makes sense.
Cool. Make sure not to get it printed in PLA. Even the heat from my Raspberry Pi Model 4 managed to warp the PLA case I made for it.
They are even more hideous in person and I didn't know that was possible.
I remember being stoked when rumors were swirling about the Electric Mustang™ and then it turned out to be that. It looks terrible and how is it in any way a mustang?
Can't wait for the inevitable Camaro Bolt® Electric Minivan.
I've always liked the idea of running a set of parks like 6 flags or something. Parks your friends can visit and ride the rides like RCT3. Amazing. Heck even proper multiplayer could be fun on a game like this. Yet another feature or OpenRCT2. Especially when Parkitect and Planet Coaster exist, why even bother if you aren't at least going to try?
Mmmmm Content®. I sure do love Brand™. My favorite thing about Property© is all the Merchandise™ I can buy related to it.
Seriously, I loved Gargoyles as a kid. I loved the animation style and I loved the darker subject matter that I as a kid got to experience. As an adult, I have no use for another CGI filled paint-by-numbers show with milquetoast stories and hours of filler. And I sure as heck have no desire to give Disney any more money to support it.
Sorry for the grumpy pessimism.
