I didn't hate it. I liked it. I didn't love it tbh and was disappointed because it had been overhyped in my opinion.

I think R.F. Kuang is a glorious writer if 1/ you like worldbuilding and extensive exposition and 2/ you don't mind messy and underwhelming endings.

Political maps are a terrible tool for visualizing cultural / linguistic practices (and on this one, colonization didn't make it even worse). Just gotta roll with it and enjoy the weird assumptions :)

I prefer to support smaller instances, but don't have a problem with lemmy.ml specifically (whereas I do sometimes go out of my way to avoid lemmy.world)

Ah bah j'ai fait pareil et je venais dire à peu près la même chose. Si j'avais su cuire des pâtes et des légumes et faire une liste de courses utile ma vie aurait été très différente.

I believe someone had asked for it and they said it was nearly impossible. You'd be able to do it in a single given app maybe, but the « download an episode by default » system, the (wonderful) variety of podcasting apps, and the variety of podcast ad services all make it nearly impossible. It's somewhere in the issues!

This extension really changed my life, or at least my fraught relationship with YouTube!

Yeah idk, I feel like last year's statement was good and if they said something more... questionable this year, probably some people were just being really pushy about "please shit on AI". As far as I'm concerned everyone looks pretty bad here.

ah dammit, sorry about that. I think it might be dynamic because I didn't have it the first time I visited

Well it's about books. I'd be happy to crosspost to a better place if I missed it :)

The 404 Media team wrote about what they learned in their first year of 404 Media, and it’s full of hope.

 

An instant classic, Daniel Lavery’s How to win the battle against objects shares an extremely healthy strategy based on blaming an inanimate appliance and a person (who isn’t yourself) for anything inconvenient that happens to you. My partner and I have been practicing hard and I’m sorry to say they’re naturally gifted (and I’m naturally infuriated).

Same same. I also really don't care that during an election people are trying to get votes and not discussing the most contentious issues. They can do that when they're in power, thank you very much.
