HOW YOUR TECH IS LYING TO YOU: the volume control is logarithmic so it feels perceptually linear
real weird way to start a video with this
i saw this thumbnail and i thought "bro is not gonna make a whole video essay about how logarithms exist right" but that's what he did (well, at least a minute of it. i am not watching the rest)
did the algorithm wake up today and decide that it was going to serve me its strongest potions
it's really funny that our work VPN alternates termination between the UK, Ireland, Romania and Kenya, which fucks the ad bidding algorithm up severely
not entirely sure why the ad algorithm is this convinced that I am in the UK and dying
I suppose it is true that the target audience for people who might want to install an ad blocker is the people who are currently seeing ads
buddy. bro. like. people of marriageable age just don't have money or if they have money, don't feel like they can spend large amounts of it rather than putting it aside to save for potential future catastrophes or old age
me when I have to kill this guy because he didn't say Schuko is best
you really want to avoid going into this type thing unprepared and potentially making an ass of yourself
this isn't really *that* funny, it's just haha ebay selling me optocouplers for some reason
but I always thought DIP packages looked like cute lil guys and this one especially so
pairs well with some exciting music, like https://soundcloud.com/javiniceday/two-feet-and-a-heartbeat
Two Feet and a Heartbeat
Your servers were empty but your soundtrack was a bop Rest In Peace, Runbow
the 3D scene for this looks pretty funny
idk what is a grease pencil, I just scrawled the face and eyes on a bunch of planes that I hide and show
anyways learn 3D it's really fun and extremely rewarding
it's just GOING right now
is this because I keep looking at (though not clicking lol) the cursed ads only so it gives me more of those
i don't know much estonian but I know enough estonian to find this at least slightly funny
I wonder, if you know a ton of languages, do you just walk the world constantly amused at a word in language A meaning a funny thing in language B
apparently, the Insulting Noodle Reference is specifically a banner put up by the power company headquarters (in response to criticism of some kind from residents? I guess?), reading "You enjoyed the free noodles provided by the Wolsong Headquarters during the cherry blossom marathon, didn’t you!", which yeah actually that is pretty insulting
there's so many things here
* Who the hell buys lobsters on ebay
* This isnt even the right ebay for my region
* The text just cuts off
* The illustration shows a gopro and some camera drone?
* Also two weird emblems? coins??
* And everything is weirdly off center, there's just nothing to the left, as if someone randomly cut this from a larger image???

I don't want that? I in fact want the opposite of that? can I pay you to close down your office?
I finally clicked through (they got me! they finally got me!) and the four fruits are apples, plums, kiwi, and pear which like
Peeling plums for any reason feels like extremely out there behaviour for me, apples and pears, well, you might for cooking or baking but if you're just eating them probably not, kiwis keeping the skin on feels like the deranged option but I guess I'm willing to try?
I can't even focus on whatever the headline is beyond this incredible illustration image
save Ryan ;_;
can someone from korea explain to me what the hell this illustration is supposed to mean
the definitely real and not made up Human Interest stories on Kenyan English Speaking Yellow Press Website That I Keep Getting In My Edge New Tab Summary are so much funnier than anything the local press has to offer

@gsuberland man it‘s so funny to get like. the news from whatever outlets MSN is able to license for free (usually, well, either public broadcaster or absolute bottom shelf) but from wherever the VPN terminates today. Petty boomer ragebait bullshit from south korea. It‘s so irrelevant to me that it’s basically just pure comedy
Faux@halcy I temporarily worked in this space; tracking footfall at shop windows and conversion rates: how many people enter the shop.
Turns out that more people enter than leave almost all of their sites every year.
Makes you think.

Cloudmom Colette@halcy yeah jesus was a bit of a resurrectionista
@halcy are you even legally allowed to sell what is effectively livestock on ebay?
@colon_three I have no idea! Ask the people selling Maine Lobsters on eBay! Apparently they have Fantastic Prices!
