Tweezers.

When you realize how many wars were averted because of them.

Good read. Sad ending that all that work ended up nowhere.

Country is doomed. I was the best. January 6th rioters were victims. Inflation is their fault. Criminal immigrants, eating your cats and dogs.

When it came to Roe v Wade, he turned it into state rights (sadly, nobody pointed out that was the same, pro-slavery Civil War argument).

Then she said people in his rallies were bored and were walking out. That's when he spun out of control...

It was amazing, watching how easy it was for her to get under his thin skin.

Switched over to Fox to see how they were going to spin it.

Hannity was like: "The moderators are lefties. It was 3-1 ."

Then he brought on Rubio, and I clicked away.

NEW feature: As you drive down the road, Ford cars will automatically take over and drive you to the nearest sponsor location. Hungry? It will take over and swerve into the nearest KFC drive-thru. Next stop, CVS pharmacy, then Office Depot.

Disclaimer: Disabling AutoAd feature requires monthly subscription.

When this whole 'training' trend started a few years ago, there were companies offering image and video labelling services.

It turned out they were mostly sweatshops in low-income countries, where people sat in front of monitors and just dragged boumding boxes around sections of images and picked from an icon menu. Here's a car, here's a person, here's an apple. That sort of thing. You didn't even need to know how to read or write.

Of course, the quality was questionable, so they needed a second layer of supervisors verifying the choices. But even with that, the cost was way lower than having an engineer or QA person do it. IIRC, there was a bit of hue and cry when stories came out of big tech companies supporting sweatshop conditions.

Sounds like it's still ongoing.

Voyager sure helped the transition for many of us moving off Reddit.

But one thing that has made it difficult to use is that saved items could only be retrieved in the order of original posting. That meant if you saved an item, then went back to look for it the next day, it wouldn't be there. It could be filed under the original post date which could be days, weeks, or months ago.

This was apparently a problem with the Lemmy back-end. Well, it appears that has been solved: https://lemmy.ml/comment/9233196

Hopefully, it'll roll out to servers soon and eventually make it to Voyager. Huge props to the devs!

PS: one of the last things Apollo added was 'save folders.' I didn't get to use it enough to get hooked on it, but it looked like it was a good way to keep things organized. Even better would have been tagging and smart folders, so items could be saved under multiple categories. Just leaving it here... 😁
