@WhiteHouse Fuck, we're embarrassing as a country. Like who's arm is that even?!

This is why you don’t take things you read online as truth.

The irony of ergonomics is the fact that the more ergonomic something is, the worse it is for you

A western style memory foam bed is the worst thing you can possibly sleep on because it perfectly cradles your body, whereas a Japanese futon style bed for example requires your stabilizer muscles to constantly be firing and your spine to maintain natural alignment

Ergonomics literally cause muscular atrophy

This is precisely the reason if you sleep in a western style bed you likely wake up sore. Hard surfaces create pressure points causing your body to naturally move during the night which in turn keeps your joints lubricated and your muscles engaged. Over time this leads to weaker back and core muscles which lead to worse daytime posture and life long problems.

All this is to say that the best chair you can buy is ironically just a cheap wood one

A testament to the importance of eustress

@jgolfaraaa19999 @alvinfoo If you believe America is truly a free country, got a war to sell you.

The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.

@SimpPolice911 Kind of like a restaurant that everyone has talked about and eaten at. Even though you feel like you know all about it, you haven’t been there yet so you give it a taste to see for yourself.

@DeadleeMcdagger @isaiahthomas You messed up the analogy. It’s that IT is closer to Michael Jordan in skill than you are to IT. Made famous by the white mamba who trashed everyone he played one on one when people that he was a bum because he barely played.

Paying $8/month on Go tier? You see ads. Paying $20/month on Plus? You don't. The privacy-first AI company has quietly built a two-tier system where users in emerging markets, on Go almost by definition, are the ones being monetized.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

OpenAI just turned on cost-per-click ads inside ChatGPT. $3 to $5 per click. Verified by Digiday from actual screenshots of the ads manager.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

The hard part: CPC is Google's core product, built over two decades of intent signals, quality scores, and auction pressure. OpenAI is stepping onto that court without conversion tracking, without behavioral targeting, and without proof its clicks actually drive purchases.

My goal is almost never hitting a massive parlay. It’s hitting consistent payouts. Feel good about both of these games.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

@WhiteHouse Yeah and who’s paying for that shit? Also might as well remove the “i” we already know what you’re trying to do.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

@sama You have experienced something nobody should have to go through and that is not feeling safe in your own home.

Now I want you to think about all the people you’ve negatively affected that now have no homes and hence no safety. It’s going to be hard for your image to recover.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

It blows my mind that nobody has created an app that tracks every golfer you want to watch live so you can see where they are at in their round.

Masters coverage leaves so much to be desired.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

@m13v_ Even running things locally carry inherent risk, unless of course we’re talking about a completely fresh machine which I genuinely hope is the case unless you have significant cyber security experience

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

Perplexity's whole pitch is that it's the smart, clean alternative to Google. No ads. No games. Just answers. There's now a federal lawsuit saying it was secretly sending your conversations to Meta and Google the whole time.

For now on when I catch myself getting worked up with the current state of the country, I’m going to look at this photo.

We’re just tiny specks living on this one specific timeline. Like can you even imagine the Late Triassic when it rained for a million years straight?!

It's now unclear whether TBPN can still book OpenAI's competitors. Zuckerberg, Nadella, Benioff - those guests came because TBPN was neutral turf. That turf just got bought. Watch what the guest list looks like in 90 days.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

OpenAI just bought TBPN. The show that covers OpenAI every single day. First media acquisition in the company's history.

[The Indifferent Spectator @IndiffSpectator]

OpenAI says TBPN keeps full editorial independence -guests, topics, all of it. Coogan and Hays say the same on air. And maybe that's true. But the show that used to grill Altman now cashes his checks.
