Earlier this month, CNN host Kasie Hunt interviewed antivax presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Although she did better than most journalists confronting him for his past antivax statements in that she played a clip of one of his antivax statements, she clearly hadn’t anticipated his response, which should have been...
Dreams have fascinated people for millennia, yet we struggle to understand their purpose. Some theories suggest dreams help us deal with emotions, solve problems or manage hidden desired s. Others postulate that they clean up brain waste, make memories stronger or deduce the meaning of random brain activity. A more recent theory...
“If you’d said in the wake of World War II that the United States would lose a war to guerrillas who didn’t have an air force or navy or even really heavy weapons, people would have just thought that you were insane,” says Major General Mick Ryan, commander of the Australian Defence College and author of the forthcoming...
I noticed something interesting about the Israel-Gaza war that seems to have generally been overlooked: The war hasn’t shown much sign of spreading throughout the Middle East. Yemen’s Houthis (one of Iran’s proxy militias) launched a few missiles in the general direction of Israel and bellowed a declaration of war, but no...
In 1999, an experimental Japanese artist released a horror point and click adventure game that was completely different from its contemporaries. Due to external forces beyond his control, the game was left in utter obscurity and was considered to be lost for many years. A decade later, forum users across the internet sought to...
In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce a South African-American(!) businessman and social media figure, Elon Musk (@elonmusk). He's best-known for being the wealthiest man in the world, running Tesla Inc., SpaceX & Twitter, and for parroting Kremlin's propaganda narratives.
From May 14th, 2023, but still spot on....
Meta’s social networks consider charging €13 a month on mobile [...]. Meta is also weighing a €17 charge to use Instagram and Facebook without adverts on desktop, according to sources close to the discussions. Accessing both apps on smartphones would cost about €19 a month.
A tiny group of people can see ‘invisible’ colours that no-one else can perceive, discovers David Robson. How do they do it?
“We need to see unemployment rise. Unemployment has to jump 40, 50 percent in my view. We need to see pain in the economy.”...
Imagine releasing a game for 99 cents under the personal plan, where Steam takes 30% off the top for their platform fee, and then unity takes 20 cents per install, and now you're making a maximum of 46 cents on the dollar.
The fact that these aren’t perfect correlations leaves plenty of room for outliers: body-builders with huge amounts of muscle who have a high BMI, despite very low body fat, say, or people with relatively low overall BMIs but a high proportion of fat. And it means that, at least in some studies, taking into account waist...
Google announced today that it is deprecating the standard Google Chrome Safe Browsing feature and moving everyone to its Enhanced Safe Browsing feature in the coming weeks, bringing real-time phishing protection to all users while browsing the web.
[...] that’s not how any of this works. At all. If the ADL is convincing advertisers not to advertise on exTwitter, that’s their free speech in the marketplace of ideas. And if that speech caused advertisers to bail, that means that Elon is losing in the marketplace of ideas. If you actually believe in free speech, you...
Musk’s public persona is an important marketing tool. Consider his appearance on Saturday Night Live: Tesla didn’t have to run advertisements because Musk is so closely associated with the brand that the entire episode functions as a car commercial. Meanwhile, every other EV maker bought ad time. You can think of Musk as the...
The moderators, subject matter experts who are paid a nominal stipend for curating and contextualizing the numerous infectious diseases reports ProMED posts to its website and pumps out to its mailing list daily, have been on strike since early August....
"My hypothesis is that, while the terminally-online are entirely aware of Twitter's rebrand to X, most consumers aren't," Seufert wrote in a post that accompanied his findings, "and their searches for 'Twitter' on platform stores surface ads and genuine search results that are in no way redolent of Twitter."
Simone Weil’s life illustrates the capacity to give up the things we feel we’re owed – such as a carbon-intensive consumer-driven lifestyle
W skrócie – chodzi o „kontrolowane wypożyczanie” e-booków przez serwis Internet Archive. Założenie jest takie, że jeśli w bibliotece mamy egzemplarz papierowy, można zamiast niego wypożyczać wersję cyfrową – tyle sztuk, ile mamy egzemplarzy....
To get a better sense of how researchers are currently interacting with the site formerly known as Twitter, Nature reached out to more than 170,000 scientists who were, or still are, users; nearly 9,200 responded. More than half reported that they have reduced the time they spend on the platform in the past six months and just...
One YouTube user has spotted this new timer in the top right corner of the popup, with the individual later sharing the screenshot on Reddit. Another user in the comments reports seeing this popup as well, so it could appear to more customers in the days ahead. While the duration of this timer isn't revealed, we expect it to be...
Users who clicked a link on Musk’s website, now called X, for one of the targeted websites were made to wait about five seconds before seeing the page, according to tests conducted Tuesday by The Washington Post....
It's difficult now to remember a time when the Switch eShop wasn't rammed with low-cost, low-quality games making it laborious to find the great new releases amongst all the dross. What began as an immaculately clean, functional store back in 2017 quickly ballooned and before long Nintendo was inundated with software submissions...
Potrzebujemy zrównoważonej sceny muzycznej. Skupionej na lokalnych zjawiskach, wstrzymującej się od eksploatacji środowiska w imię zysku, przystępnej cenowo. Takie festiwale to nie tylko ulga dla planety, ale także ochrona przed katastrofami o wielkiej skali, które ciągną za sobą kolejne bankructwa.
The ABC is shutting down almost all of its official accounts on Twitter – now known as X under Elon Musk’s ownership – citing “toxic interactions”, cost and better interaction with ABC content on other social media platforms.
