Super fun, pardner. That horse is looking a little sparse, though. Maybe you could draw that horse winning the lottery and subsequently losing most of that money to gambling debts?

I don't think it's just a feeling of futility - it's true phones can be distracting and offer more potential entertainment, and it's true learning can sometimes be a slog. At the same time, learning can be fun and engaging, and phones can offer access to a wealth of information (of highly varying quality, admittedly).

Concentrating too hard on mere academic success as gauged by metrics like school grades is undoubtedly discouraging for a student who only goes to school if they are told they must.

No my eyesight is fine, what are you on about?

Maybe an un-based take, but these questions do have ambiguous answers, and I don't know if we should expect a machine to give an answer without nuance. If you just want the AI to say yes or no, ask something like, "Was Hitler bad?" or "Is slavery unethical?" and you will much more likely get straightforward answers.

Really depends on her definition of being a witch. For the most part, hell yeah, I'm on board.

Not sure if it counts as a first day, but a third interview had me gone. I was quite late and they told me I was out of the running. Reasonable enough, but the company was in the middle of a move, so this interview was in a different location across town from the first two, and the only indication of where it was taking place was a tiny sign stuck in the ground. I must have circled the parking lot 10 times.

It was for the best because I later learned the work conditions there were rotten.

Seems like a good deal if it proactively convinces bad actors to stop from reaching out

Eh, it's all just personal choice (until someone starts scraping Lemmy for LLM or otherwise mining for data).

N-no...

I do agree that $10 is more in line with what I'd expect personally, but to be fair you have a few options before getting to that point.

If you know you're going to be using Sync and staying on Lemmy, you have no problem.

If you're staying on Lemmy but just trying Sync, you can just use the app with ads for a while to try it out, or you could subscribe to the monthly subscription which is like $2 a month, and if you are still using it 10 months later then it's clearly worth the cost to you.

Or if you don't like ads and you don't like subscriptions and you're not attached to Sync, you probably just move on to another app!

Someone should make a list of all the Lemmy apps which are objectively better than Sync and the reasons why. That'd show them.

Honestly, i think Memmy was a step too far. Why even develop more apps than Jerboa at most?
