Welcome mods! Looking forward to an active mod team, thanks for taking on the challenge!
Kudos, dohpaz, on the call about beep. The ban hammer is an easy out; I think this shows a lot of integrity and a considered approach to a controversial situation.
This is a good response.
I’ll add from an argument perspective, try to make Signal sound as similar to WhatsApp as you can, then highlight how it’s better.
Don’t bash WhatsApp, it’s an entrenched default (first man in advantage). At worst, highlight why you don’t support it. Humans love homeostasis, even if it’s not good for us (the devil you know) - ppl may actually like it and you have to convince them why your option is better.
Happy persuading!
Well, that shorthand just made it into the lexicon
If you’re doing some long term planning and want max hockey, this is probably something you want to look into for 2027/28. Will be expensive but can probably do some multi game deals: https://www.nhl.com/news/world-cup-of-hockey-2028-to-be-played-in-calgary-edmonton-prague
Other than that I strongly recommend looking into some WHL and OHL seasons - all young players trying to get into the NHL, so on average the hockey is grittier and more interesting. NHL players have already made it so, though it always draws a crowd, you get more “phone it in” type games in the regular season. Playoffs are another monster entirely in both levels.
I haven’t read the other comments yet, but the budding PWHL has the skill of the NHL with the scrappiness of professional women’s sport. Phenomenal hockey.
Happy travels!
I gotta be honest the responses were as funny as the post was alarming XD
Latest fan theory just dropped huh? I dig it
In fairness, it did before, it was just previously forehead wrinkles of consternation™️
Government - great at research, terrible at generation. If you ask it to find and summarise laws and regulation, does a great job, quotes info, can even generate reasonable overviews with a handhold.
Ask it to generate anything that isn’t directly quoted in a specific doc and it goes WILD. Even with some solid training in prompt engineering, it makes you work for focused outputs unless you give it clear everything (data, prompt, target template, revision and scoring process). But once the workflow has been solidly validated a few times I’d rate it “usable”.
Interpretive this!
sick lute-shedding solo
Thank you, I’m also a huge fan of spinach! I also love lazy wordplay and alliteration - I’ve been thinking of making an alt account called lethargiclettuce just cuz haha. Your UN also made me smile for the same reason haha
Not everyone carries your value system. Get over it.
Perhaps not, but he openly admits he does his best. That’s enough
You respect where your food comes from. Enjoy your well-deserved comforts, haters are gonna hate
Let me tell you, this got a genuine lol approximating the same amount of shock she must have felt. Well played, author, well played
This is an interesting take haha. I’m Canadian and have never once heard of Americans being nicer than Canadians - it is part of our national identity that we’re"oddly nice". I’ve heard more of the “Americans are big and take up space” commentary from above, and have even heard it in Canada (and we share a lot of cultural similarity). Not saying you’re wrong, I just found this such a reversal of my experience I had to comment. Overall, I love my siblings to the south :)
If I remember from my psych degree, it’s technically possible to get addicted to anything that dumps dopamine. Has to do with reward schedules and how much dopamine that reward gives (is the juice worth the squeeze)
So our beloved man’s best friend are just derived from the dumbest of the wolves?
This is what I was taught as well. It’s a very intentional “not quite 2x4”, but saying that every time gets tiring haha
