Since ancient times in Japan, the heart symbol has been called Inome (猪目), meaning the eye of a wild boar, and it has the meaning of warding off evil spirits. The decorations are used to decorate Shinto shrines, Buddhist temples, castles, and weapons.[6][7] The oldest examples of this pattern are seen in some of the Japanese original tsuba (sword guard) of the style called toran gata tsuba (lit., inverted egg shaped tsuba) that were attached to swords from the sixth to seventh centuries, and part of the tsuba was hollowed out in the shape of a heart symbol.[8][9]

First just felt the most realistic to me (probably because it had a lot of military scenes and was probably a Pentagon propaganda) and a lot of the interactions between the humans just made sense to me.

2 wasn’t that bad imo because I only watched it for cool robot fights and a lot of the scenes were still memorable. Next ones get progressive worse, literally the only thing I remember is that they had Sentinel Prime, robot dinos, and robot knights. Felt like cash grabs

1 billion dollars with a side of 1 trillion dollars, next question

The first two Bay movies hold a special place in my heart. They may not be good, but they’re enjoyable and cool as fuck

even if it wasn’t, NSA would’ve probably bought it already anyway

Well, that’s not very open of OpenAI

Let’s just hope they don’t start injecting their ads into the video stream itself

I mean, TikTok was already bad to begin with but what did they do to deserve a spot next to Twitter? Did I miss something? Surely they can’t do worse than trying to make their paid only, right?

passive aggressive body positivity

this should be illegal

Living in the golden age of AI kinda sucks. At first it was interesting to have these new tools to play around with, but then people start using it on things that definitely shouldn’t use AI

Just like clicking on floppy disk save icons everyday when you’ve never held an actual floppy disk

This is VOICE MESSAGE we’re talking about, not calls nor chats. You can already block calls from non contacts and create a folder to only show chats from your contact.

How many voice message spams have you received that you feel like this is a deal breaker and how is Signal an appropriate alternative in this regard, when it doesn’t even have as many privacy options including this one?

I don’t get how people expect services to stay free while also being against any kind of subscription or ads and barely donate to support these projects.

This isn’t an essential feature they’re paywalling. I don’t even remember the last time I sent a voice note, let alone get one from a stranger. Feels more like a thank you from the devs for supporting them

I wonder how it’ll work on sites like Reddit. Imagine paying for verification only to get downvoted and "silence brand"ed by people

I know, but having to refill that every couple hours must be inconvenient

TIL urinals without a flush exists

This is why I search for conflicting interests on different browsers. Have fun figuring out whether I’m actually a Lakers or Celtics fan, Google and Microsoft!

Is there even any advantage of using Chrome instead of Edge in 2023? They’re basically the same since both use Chromium and are ridden with trackers and telemetry
