Tourists:

They have no reason to change that. They will long term want the exact same thing that twitter has, access to all user data and control of the platform.

I recently learned that this is actually used in the UK.

You know who. ChatGPT.

OK, I admit I read too much into your post. Sorry about that!

Look, I completely sympathise, but your point of view here is “because I am inconvenienced, everyone needs to adjust for me”. How many people are affected by this?

If you are in need of masking other people sounds while eating, you can surely bring your own music and headphones and whatever to support you.

So, sorry, but I am with OP here. Loud music in public places such as restaurants is annoying.

There are always the high seas…

Was Amon and his brother born before or after Aang did this?

Then the machine may just as well adjust your vote without you ever knowing about it.

Nice bait in the post title.

Are you serious? It’s Microsoft.

That’s a big point that also usually isn’t really distinguished in all these studies, especially the ones about children and screen time.

I feel there are differences between just watching cartoons and playing some involving game.

Also, just walking by a TV that’s on is also screen time, or not? Is the TV running in the background at home screen time when you only look at it 5 minutes here and there?

I’d be happy if those studies would clearly state, 4 hours social media per day is bad. Or 4 hours watching TV with at least 30 minutes long sessions is bad. Stuff like that.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy’s skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something? Ha ha, boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Did the guardian cut off the article on accident?

There’s this passage at the end of it that just doesn’t seem to relate to the rest:

In 2007 Ulvaeus was wrongly accused of failing to pay 85m kronor (£7.9m) in Swedish taxes between 1999 and 2005, and went on to successfully appeal against the decision.

Like, OK, it is about taxes but specifically about the taxes on the stage clothes of the 70s/80s, so how does talking about his taxes between 99 and 05 add anything to the discussion?

mister doctor?

The fork isn’t

Hilarious, makes me kind of want to see it fail again just to see what people come up with as the next name in line.

I actually always wondered about the y in old texts. Thanks!

The enforcing part is where this is likely to get shitty. Once they establish this as a law they maybe will try and sue companies that don’t provide an age check on their websites. Now if that is possible I am not sure, seeing as many of those are having HQs in Ireland or Netherlands due to tax reasons.

But if that is successful it would mean they actually have to check everyone’s age by some means, which means collecting IDs. Which definitely is bad news for users, we all know that data won’t be securely stored or deleted.

Not sure how else this could go down.
