It’s not football; it’s LaLiga.

This is not specific to Asia. or South Asia. Nothing about this is specific to Asia.

IMO Only thing good about Teams is Emojis

Cant wait to look like an idiot after sending a heart to my boss while trying to select the hostname

Maybe he will like it! Who knows?!

Do you mean the way that Microsoft hijacked open-parenthesis, and you can't choose a different character to trigger an emoji call?


Which is extremely practical for French, where the colon comes after a space. So if you want to write an actual colon to introduce a list on the following line, you’ll just input whatever the default smiley is.

aha - they've added colon.

I notice that ( still goes into emoji mode though.

So, the worst of both worlds. I should not be surprised. (And I am not.)


Except for the fact where their emoji :shortcodes: are different from everyone elses, so if you're not careful you end up looking like a lunatic.

IMHO they are not. Using the shortcodes via () works okay-ish, but open the emoji menu is just awfully slow, it takes a solid 5-8 secs for it to show the emojis not recently used. It's absolute garbage.

And yet Slack still does it better

I think the liberation day tariff formula was AI generated for sure. Also, I think OP is talking about DOGE staff asking ChatGPT if something is DEI

(Not an American)


Yes, they have been using AI. But I’m convinced they would have done almost exactly the same without

Erik Ten Hag is this you ?

Yes lol

So, so good.

City or Arsenal for EPL?

I am a Man UTd fan. I would be delighted if Arsenal bottle it yet again. The memes would be glorious and It would cure lot of people of depression.

I would say City for EPL for the greater good.


You still don't take City seriously, but those titles are slowly adding up.

True. My only cope is Guardiola will leave this year and they will not win as frequently as they are winning right now.

We'll see.

Can never be arsenal

We'll find out.

And not work during LaLiga games ?


> every racist encounter me or my family has ever had (thankfully not a lot) has been with people who if they voted at all voted Democrat.

Reddit is mostly rascist towards Indians too.


Is that accurate description though?

Capitalism: Shareholders need to be satisfied every year.


No escaping that.


> every female posting would have someone in the replies doing "grok, put OP in a bikini"

I get these tweets randomly in my Timeline as well. What I don't understand is why does Twitter think I should know about someone asking Grok to put xxx in Bikini


My guess would be that they amplify tweets involving Grok as a form of advertising. I think they disabled tagging Grok for non paying users, so I guess they do it to advertise its capabilities. And because their user base is so toxic that mostly means amplifying things like that.


This is a command to the Grok bot and used to generate an image based on the post and that specific prompt. After significant outrage they disabled it for non-paying users at least, not sure if they changed more about this later.


If the "algorithm" thinks that I want to see <command to the Grok bot> from random accounts so jams lots of them into my feed then it is a pretty dumb algorithm


Maybe X thinks X users might be unaware of the ability to pay money to see other random X users naked, so it's basically an advert for non-consensual sexual image generation.


I've been saying that about a lot of algorithms for a while now, but I think the issue is more that they're smart algorithms optimized for the wrong thing
