What is the worst song in the history of the entire world, and why is it Michael Buble's "Just Haven’t Met You Yet"?
  • Anything by Ed Sheeran but especially Shape Of You. Can't believe it was the most popular song for a long while. It's so repetitive and grating, and the lyrics are cringe af at best, objectifying and creepy at worst.

    An article about how the song was written: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/12/20/arts/music/ed-sheeran-shape-of-you.html

    Mr. Mac and Mr. McDaid weren’t convinced. “‘I’m in love with your body,’ on its own with no addendum, with nothing at the end or no preface, felt objectifying to me,” Mr. McDaid said. “It felt like that’s the thing — it’s just physical, it’s nothing else.”

    yup

    Mr. Mac gave the collaborators a challenge: to use the same four chords throughout, not switching to a major key for the chorus.

    Being bland and repetitive was an intentional design decision. That's why I hate it more than anything else.

    After about 90 minutes, they had recorded the complete song.

    :margot-disgust:

    Absolute gross slop.

  • It's good to see you again. I can tell you that I would CERTAINLY not be here right now if you hadnt made the impact you did on the site's culture and its overall acceptance of trans people. I'm so happy for that. 🖤❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

  • software development in most shops is just duct taping problems because there is "never time" to actually fix the problem or address the root because we have to sprint on to something else.

    At my workplace I am the duct taper. I'm not a real developer myself - I'm a person with development skills whose job is to clean up the mess that the real developers mindlessly create in their rush to get cards from one side of the screen to the other.

    Experiences with Cyberpunk 2077?

    I've been generally hearing that it's good and been thinking about playing it. I'm not sure if it's my type of game or not. Was looking to hear about people's experiences and if you had any fun stories to share?

    I also have some questions:

    • I'm not comfortable with nudity or sex. Apparently this can be turned off in game. If you used this option, how effective is it?

    • How integral to the game is combat and looting?

    • I'm Autistic. If you're Autistic, do you feel that the game can accommodate Autistic players? (For example, I'd feel uncomfortable if the game forced me to take part in pointless social interactions like attending/talking to people at a party. I wouldn't know what to do in that situation and I would feel very stressed, and probably not do what I was "supposed to" in the game's rules.)

    • Have you played with any mods? Good mods? Bad mods?

    • Did you have a good time?

    Thank you so much! !cyber-lenin !trans-heart

    Just got this tagline: TrueAnon Rule: Never release political prisoners to placate protestors.

    Was this one added today after Assange was freed or has it just been cooking in the backend for 2 years?

    Police mostly used the AI-driven tech to corroborate existing evidence, place vehicles at times and locations for an investigation, and as supporting evidence in criminal cases.

    Subscription airbag

    Image description:

    Tweet: Okay I thought this one straight up has to be hyperbole, there's no way they'd make an airbag that checks your subscription status or it doesn't go off, but it's fucking TRUE: "Without the subscription service from In&Motion, the airbag system is non-operational."

    Quoted tweet: Reminder that Klim makes a motorcycle airbag vest that has a subscription service and if you don't pay and get in a wreck it just doesn't go off

    Google results screenshot: Ai-1 Airbag Vest (Klim) - Choose from $12/month or $120/year subscription options, which include...
