Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Ad companies should just cut out the middle man and pay me to watch their ads
73·1 month agoCounter-proposal: you get to opt-out of advertising by signing up to automatically buy all the products they advertise.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your experience with your work's insurance
2·2 months agoSounds more like Canada to me. None of those things are covered publicly here, although we were making some slow progress on drug and dental coverage when we had a mildly progressive party sharing power.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a way to reduce the number of AI generated websites that appear in search results?
2·3 months agoI’ve almost given up on just searching the whole internet for something. I either filter by eye for sites I trust in the results, or add a filter to the query. There are usually a handful of sites I trust on a given topic.
It’s crazy how poorly photos convey the experience.
It sounds basic, but I just keep an eye on new album reviews and give things a quick listen (on Spotify usually) if they have some good reviews.
For things I like I try to buy it on bandcamp so I can put it on my jellyfin server. If it’s hard to find DRM free I 🏴☠️.
Downside is I miss out on non-album releases.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the largest object one can buy for the least amount of money?
7·4 months agoI’m sure there’s cheap land for sale, but that one is just a typo in the listing I’m pretty sure.
Situated on a large 82X145 fully fenced lot, giving you ample room and tons of outdoor space for your family.
It’s a regular town lot surrounded by others.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your most recently visited Wikipedia pages?
2·4 months agoNow I kind of want to have a daily Lemmy thread where we read and discuss a random Wikipedia article as a community.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Do American drug companies come up with their drug's name or jingle first
1·5 months agoThere’s a film that covers how they named Gleemonex:

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Those working from say 1970 to 2000, did you notice a change in office tempers as lead poisoning wound down?
4·6 months agoIt’s buckets of people that had those different lead levels, so it adds up to everyone.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you use your turn signal in a turn-only lane? Why or why not?
7·7 months agoI always would. The only time it becomes a bit ambiguous is if there are two turn lanes, e.g. you’re turning left from the second-to-left lane. In that case I’d usually indicate later, maybe when I’ve stopped or the white line is solid, so it’s clear I’m not trying to change lanes.
I’m probably over thinking it.
If you didn’t cheat that’s actually pretty impressive.

Formula 1@lemmy.world•F1 CEO calls for more 'controversy' to 'spice up' the sport
3·7 months agoYears ago, there were far broader grey areas than today
You can’t have both a full-prototype race series with lots of dramatic technical developments, and an almost-spec series with close racing and the top 10 within 1s.
Part of me would love to see more of the former, but in the recent past every big development just got immediately banned. In the old days it would have been adopted by the whole field, until something replaced it. It’s no fun if it’s going to be like that.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Join Finamp's first Hackathon Next Week!English
5·8 months agoI just started using finamp a couple of weeks ago and this inspired me to install the beta.
If I find any problems I’ll try to get involved on the repository. Discord is a bit of a turnoff though.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where do you draw the line between "staying informed" and avoiding all the stress in the news?
191·8 months agoUnfortunately we are in clown-world and the actual fucking news is rage-inducing, even with impeccable journalism.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•This world is turning out less like the movie Idiocracy and more like the series Continuum.
71·10 months agoI still think Infinite Jest is in pole position:
- unqualified populist US president
- canada (and mexico?) subjugated to the US
- subsidised time (selling everything including the calendar to the highest bidder)
- catapulting garbage into giant superfund sites
edit: also I think we can be on track for both Infinite Jest and Idiocracy

‘bite down’ is also a lie
