Which podcast player do you use for android?
  • How do you self host audiobooks if you don't mind my asking? As in where do you get them? Are there reputable places to buy them for download, or are you somehow extracting from audible/libby/etc?

  • Mass arrests at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade as anti-Israel protesters block path
  • It's an inherent part of being vegetarian. I mean lots of animals die as part of the food you eat (or food production process) that isn't just "meat". Gelatin, rennet, bone char just to name a few.

    So if animals dying for you genuinely doesn't align with you then id challenge you to take a close look at your ingredient labels to see which ingredients are animal byproducts or use animal byproducts in their production.

  • Mass arrests at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade as anti-Israel protesters block path
  • A protest against genocide calls to the historical roots of Thanksgiving. A protest against meat calls to the contemporary practice of the holiday. Both are relevant, but if we're talking about importance i would agree genocide.

    Ps. The vegetarian thing isnt super relevant here since vegetarians are still ok with animals dying for them.

  • Even a priest won't forgive you for this one
  • In case it's a serious question, there's a few reasons but one of them is so that they can be more selective in who they hire but the official reason will be "not qualified" and they can point at that minimum years. Of course they'll never admit it.

    They also do it to discourage so many applications. Or maybe they don't want to fill the job at all and just say they are trying to get more workers.

    The job market also let's them do it. Out of necessity or desire, people are taking underemployed roles. Meaning that position that requires a masters degree has someone applying with a phd, masters applying for undergrad degree roles, etc.

    Lots of other reasons. Doesn't mean i have to like it though

  • My parents kicked me out recently. Why do we miss people who've treated us badly?
  • Hello, I'm very sorry you have had to experience this.

    I got kicked out at 16. For me it wasn't so much missing my specific parents, but i just missed the parents i didn't have. You know, the ideal parents that existed only in my head; the ones that told me they're proud of me, they support my choices, they accept me, they love me.

    But beyond that i think at least for some of us it is normal to want to remember the good things despite the bad things, and it can be normal to miss those good things. My advice is to remember the person as a whole and tell yourself you're better than how they treated you. You're worth more than that. It hurts, but if they really loved you then they wouldn't kick you out over something so trivial as your boyfriend being Hungarian.

    It's up to you if you want to keep the door open. I personally did and gave them room to talk to me and apologize. We talked superficially occasionally but they never did apologize before dying. i just accepted they were shit parents long ago so their deaths were just like any other day.

  • Study Finds 76% of Cybersecurity Professionals Believe AI Should Be Heavily Regulated
  • How could you realistically regulate AI? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm just scrolling through "All".

    To me it seems like if you regulated it heavily in one country then it would just be researched and made available in other countries. And bad actors could always abuse it from less regulated country models, from any open source models, or from models they built themselves.

    I do agree there needs to be more safety emphasized as part of the innovation cycle, I'm just not optimistic given this is a modern day guns race

  • Masochism
  • Not the OP but i think these would still be "making it easier" settings but to their point it is just leveling the player field since people without disabilities already have an easier time playing.

    You could adjust things like hitbox size (yours and enemies), the i-frame duration (amount of time invincible after rolling), a game speed setting, setting that adjusts the pacing of fights (such as delays between enemies moves are increased by this setting), damage multipler (yours and enemies), or straight up handicapping player level or attribute scores. Thats just off the top of my head, I'm sure there are plenty of other ways.

    The bonus to this is that it could also make the game harder. A lot of people like doing challenge runs and this would add depth to that.
