Only on Lemmy would someone with (likely) zero experience in combat sports tell someone that a sport known for rampant knee issues is “their fault”, and not due to the increased force on the knees from doing a ground-based sport.
Again, only on Lemmy would someone say “you can’t be fat in your seventies, these famous people aren’t”.
Well yeah, if you spend your life doing martial arts of combat sports your joints are probably absolutely fucked, and you’ve got no hope of getting meaningful exercise in without considerable pain. Hell, I’ve done BJJ for only ten years and my knees are a wreck. I know Seagal is into aikido and shit, but being rich I don’t blame him for being fat in his seventies. It’s really fucking hard to stay in shape when you get old.
For some reason, my mind went to first episodes/pilots. Of these, I’d say that Suits and The OC are up there with some of the best.
As for the actual best episode, I’d go for My Lunch, the Scrubs episode where there’s a rabies outbreak amongst organ transplant patients. Alongside this, probably Tracy does Conan from 30 Rock, and the musical episode of IT Crowd.
I know a lot of people felt that they were kinda winging it throughout the show, but I’ve always felt that the ending in particular was planned out from the start, and was beautifully executed.
You may not like him, but the man’s in his seventies. This is what a person in their seventies looks like.
That’s much clearer, thanks for sharing!
I have a few friends at the Beeb, albeit not in the newsroom, and they have a blanket ban on ALL GenAI tools that aren’t self-hosted. I would be very surprised if IT at the BBC wasn’t blocking Apple Intelligence outright.
Although reading the article, I can’t really tell if this means content was rewritten on the BBC content side, or a hallucination on-device using BBC content.
Does Musk actually care about Twitter any more?
It’s served its purpose. It won the election for Trump. Musk will probably just focus on being Trump’s puppy and let Twitter slowly die out.
It could have been good if all the planets were actually playable.
It felt like half a game, and another six months to bake would have probably turned it into a great game with some replayability. Put a gun to my head, and I couldn’t tell you the plot, but I remember both “some” fun, and a lot of frustration of how short it was.
As someone in big tech that has “heard stories”, I’m willing to bet that if someone were to somehow dig into tech companies with a performance management policy to promote attrition, they would find that many people that have entered maternity leave also end up being forced to leave or terminated because of their selfish desire to have something in their life other than work.
Why annoying?
Based on what kind of people they are, you might be able to get away with something else. Maybe play some Christian music if you think they don’t want to live next to a god-botherer. If you’re bible-belt, put one of those 24 hour Mecca livestreams on loud, and go do your grocery shopping or something.
If you want just plain annoying, you can’t go wrong with Justin Bieber or tween pop.
It’s also probably a developmental aid also. As someone with a child, you’d be surprised at how laser-focused parents can be with regards to developmental delays or issues and ensuring that their kids have every opportunity to meet specific milestones.
IMO while it’s absolutely not a replacement for human interaction, something like this with the right backing could be very useful to a lot of kids that need additional help.
While I agree in principle, a blanket enforcement seems like a great way for companies to purposely tank smaller entities just to get hold of their code/IP. Alongside this, it probably doesn’t help to just release the code, when these devices will run on web services, or perhaps even proprietary tech.
In this case, it would be a great way to dissolve the company. Switch the endpoints over to a custodian project, have the servers owned and run through a community campaign, and open source the code and artifacts.
Yes, with a caveat.
Create a single-issue party for something like free healthcare, with your sole goal to be to drain votes from Democrats. Gain enough traction, and that party will welcome you into the fold with open arms, and will actually fucking listen to your issue as their primary platform.
Cool, but the rhetoric on Lemmy around non-federated social media being stupid indicates that many others here aren’t.
Tell basically all young people that.
You not liking it does not mean it doesn’t have appeal.
I really enjoyed Happy, and the ending was a little rushed. It’s one of those classic shows that people seemed to like, but not enough people seemed to have watched to keep it going.
Alongside this, sugar versions of soft drinks in the UK. I have an intolerance to most popular artificial sweeteners, and as someone that likes fizzy sodas .y choices dropped significantly after cunting Jamie Oliver decided to ruin another thing I love.
Already have, it’s definitely not diabetes. Apparently it’s a genetic thing, but it’s both pretty rare and just isn’t caught by people that “have the gift”.
Haha, it’s so weird that the only people that have caught on that are my sneezes are my wife and my parents. My wife used to think it was cute, until she realised that her smelling it basically means she’s breathing in my sneezes, which is pretty grim.
It’s maybe 1 in 5 sneezes, but I can almost always tell when it’s going to be a “smelly” one.
That ignores a huge psychological aspect of weight gain, alongside several questions that contribute:
I can say that for the latter points, it is incredibly hard to do so, looking at my parents and with people I’ve trained with. Furthermore, going from fighting fit to limited care can make you explode in both weight and joint issues. I’ve trained with a few army guys or people with pro sports experience, and it’s mad how even in your forties you can go from a sub-twenty minute 5k to throwing up on a mat during a 5 min spar.
