It’s not exactly like above but children are given a marshmallow and told if they wait a certain amount of time and not eat it, they will get another marshmallow and they can eat both. They can decide to eat the marshmallow right away and not get a second one. As well.

It’s a test that has a very high rate of predicting how well a person does in the future, education, life, income, happiness. Indicating people who wait for a second marshmallow do better in life.

It got famous, and when the study was done properly with actual controls and accounting for income, home life and parental trust decades later the previous results are moot. Results are entirely manipulated by how trustworthy the test giver is. So it’s meaningless now in the use I had for it, but the first study’s meaning has lingered.

But MAGA won’t pass the marshmallow test.

She might be the only country artist I listen to.

Those people were never ever her fans and were certainly not at her concert.

It’s not a backlash because those people weren’t listening to her to begin with. They just heard she was being kind and decided to act like she suddenly did something terrible. She’s been doing this from the start, nothing changed.

Her lyrics are so unique and entertaining. She feels like the first young contemporary female artist to not constantly write about breakups.

After the COVID trucker protests, the Canadian flag became a red flag.

After the ongoing Albertan separation scandal, the Canadian flag has been redeemed and the Albertan flag is a red flag.

It’s worth mentioning that someone made a video game about your consciousness getting downloaded to this screen saver environment among other 90s screensavers.

Oh cool, meteoroid, with that guy Seamus the bounty hunter!

It’s an app for keeping track of and reporting bird sightings.

Ushuaia is the port city for everyone going to Antarctica for tourism. Every ornithologist I’ve worked with on Antarctica bound tourism vessels has talked about going to the Ushuaia dump. This feelsike such a deep cut 😂

Same goes for visiting northern communities in the Arctic.

Want good arctic Fox photos? Go to the town dump.

Hmm looks like some stats I pulled were from polls, and I fell victim to people paraphrasing that around 20% of rural people not having a primary care doctor in the last few years as “not even having seen a doctor” sorry about that.

40% of Americans haven’t seen a doctor in 5 years: https://studyfinds.org/americans-avoiding-the-doctor/ https://www.aarp.org/pri/topics/health/coverage-access/health-care-rural-america/?

But the limited stats on primary care and a lot of self reporting is very bad.

62% parasites infection: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.01.10.23284404v1.full

Typing in “southern united states rural primary care access” in Kagi has a lot of sad results.

In the US, people don’t go to the doctor when they have a problem, they go as a last resort because they have to ask themselves how much it would cost.

18% of Americans haven’t ever seen a doctor and 40% of Americans haven’t seen one for 5 years.

A number of studies in low income communities in the south show that over 60% of people in those communities have intestinal parasites. That’s just the ones we know of.

One thing we know for sure is that ivermectin is about as magic as they say it is for parasites only. It’s a fantastic drug for that.

Over 60% of low income citizens would likely feel much better after getting their parasites removed from ivermectin. So what they are seeing, seems true. They could be sick from something else but get rid of a long standing comorbidity of a pariste infection, you bet they are feeling good. They just think that relief from the varied symptoms from parasite is actually something else cured.

This ivermectin religion has real miracles, it’s just not the ones they think they are. This belief is entirely created because Americans don’t have healthcare. That’s why this belief isn’t found elsewhere.

Lovely_reader doing the real investigative journalism here, I love it ☺️

So yes it’s ai slopified, but it is also a real graph that didn’t need to be slopified but was done so using AI upscaling.

So, everyone is right in a way fun twist 😅

Pretty disappointed in Lemmy not noticing and downvoting this AI slop.

I’m all for calling out bullshit IoT garbage but zoom in and look closer.

Update: op updated the photo with a non AI image that’s the same but without hallucinated text. The original graph was real and made by a human, but through memes got degraded and an AI upscaler added new hallucinated text to it. Mystery solved and fixed.

The generation war, the political war is just to distract us from the fact we are all under assault by a class war from the super rich. If we fight each other, we can’t fight the rich.

Blame it on the billionaires, not other generations.

This is the answer.

Additional ideas: I happened to be on Synology and wanted to download google takeout files directly from Google to the nas. So I ran an instance of chromium in docker and used that browser to download the 50gb takeout files directly to the nas.

Take note of the size of your immich library before and after you import with immich go, and how big the takeout files are before using immich go. If you miss a few files you’ll know because of the size discrepancy.

One thing about monitors lasting so long is that it feels good that I’m not making e-waste from monitors every time I upgrade my computer. For the 25 years I’ve been using desktops I’ve only bought 3 monitors, I can’t say that about the rest of my computer hardware.

I hear you there. Almost every meeting presentation room I use still requires my usb-c to vga adapter and I just have to live with it. It’s the natural state of such places I think. It feels so amazing when I can plug directly into my laptop without an adapter. And yea I agree, they are a headache.

This seems like a non issue dramatised for headlines, they are phasing out outdated sata connection to only favour current m.2.

It’s like gpu and motherboard manufacturers announcing they are no longer including VGA ports in favour of DVI display port and HDMI. I don’t think that was a bad thing.

I’m sure some people who are lucky enough to have hardware that still requires SATA want to keep upgrading to new SATA devices but it’s been enough time. I’m ok with just m.2 now.

Wow thank you for this. This looks so much nicer than portainer.

Subscribing to these communities is so helpful because of discovery like this.

Only the opposite has ever happened for me.

Hello ugly giant bags of mostly water, how are you today?
