  • They’re not in the new Epstein Ballroom, they’re in the student loan servers (they’re nice and cool like tunnels)

  • How long has it been on 99.9%? Still a chance you just need to wait for someone to turn on their computer?

    If I can’t get an audiobook specifically I usually mark it as a request in the Libby app and hope the library will purchase some licenses. Does your library offer similar services?

    To answer your original question though I don’t generally buy stuff I’ve failed to torrent. I intermittently search for it again unless I forget about it though.

  • Will do:)

  • got it. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

  • When you say blend it do you mean in a blender or just mix them?

  • Excellent, definitely planning to move away from xbox once mine dies due to plan restructuring that has me paying the same amount of money to play online but without the benefits Gold originally offered (permanent access to select games each month)

  • As CBS affiliate WBZ-TV noted, the hotel claimed days later that Baker and Victor had used the same stall together and that one of them “put their hands on our security team.]” Both women denied those allegations, and MCAD’s statement last week said the hotel had released a “false statement to the media,” which the commission found to constitute unlawful retaliation. The guard who initiated the incident no longer works at the hotel, the station reported.

    “We deeply regret that our initial statement may have created unintended impressions about the actions of Ansley and Liz. That was not our intent…”

    “Unintended impressions” lolol

  • The typical therapist advice about focusing only on the things you can personally change does not work well on macro issues. Issues that were created by lots of people working together like climate change require a bunch of people working together to fix. A bunch of people who don’t individually have the power to make any significant impact.

    Moral philosophers get bogged down trying to figure out how to do a calculus that would reasonably obligate each individual to join the cause via our normal feelings of responsibility but these generally feel unintuitive and lack the kind of motivating responsibility most people feel towards things they had more control in creating or causing. I like Pinkert’s early work to help get my head around issues of collective responsibility and individual motivation.

    Fact is that a whole lot of people need to take a leap of commitment to solve collective problems because if everyone acts rationally (in terms of their proportional responsibility to the problem and capacity to fix it) there is not nearly enough capacity to make a dent in issues like environmental pollution.

    On the level of day to day life it depends on how you’re applying the advice but I personally don’t find it comforting to be told there’s nothing I can do to intervene—in this case too I feel better trying -something- and failing frequently vs forcing myself to be zen about my friend turning to drugs or my boss being a jerk all the time because my rational brain says my efforts won’t make a difference anyway.

  • Uh oh I think you’ve gone and added a new dystopia that we’ll need to incorporate:( I’d read it though, solid premise

  • Okay but hear me out, how would we craft a world that combined all of the dystopias science fiction warned us against if we left out mass surveillance?

  • In 2020 Freakonomics did a dive into the effectiveness of adverts. Link below (transcripts too). There are sources listed and such. My tl;dr based on memory is that ads in general are not very cost effective for most companies. Ads are very cost effective for companies that sell ads though.

  • They should always do 3 mini burgers instead of a big one

    What a shame:'[

  • The communist manifesto was written for a different historical moment but so much of it is still spot on.

    I mean come on, it opens basically like “Everyone in the current status quo has already painted communism as their biggest most powerful enemy, may as well unite and make it become that.”

    Feels pretty topical given that multiple countries are thinking about naming antifa, which isn’t an organization, a terrorist group.

  • Shoot, I’m too poor for this. I’ll have to tape up some ads on mine

  • Being shitty is much easier and takes much less effort so it prevails wherever people don’t collectively resist it.

  • Exactly what Charlie Kirk would want! More censorship!

  • Depends on the context, but almost always a strawman imo.

    Evil is simpler and easier to pull off than good (because you don’t have to value everyone in your equation), so “reasonable” compromises with evil compounded enough times leads to some pretty evil outcomes.

  • Yeah it makes no sense. Did a deal with the devil I guess.
