Because it’s not just about money, that’s why you hear about the number of copies sold more than gross revenue, it represents number of interested people that can buy another product at X dollars. Every now and then exec put up big sales, pump the numbers up before the big reports.
That’s also why Nintendo games neeever go on sale.
Just today i got a “Your number has been added to google meets!” with no way to backout or cancel. Not even the double “are you sure” from when you decline windows 11 upgrade. It added it to some random account i’m signed into atm and nobody has hours to go through their convoluted menus to fucking turn it off or erase it.
Thats not counting all the other shit we get like the constant popups for premium or incessant backup harassment.
Time for a new phone (I know graphene but due for a new phone and not buying google).
if you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment

You yearn for what could have been, and it’s hard to accept what is. If there is really no benefit, you should remove your estimate of them at least partially. You will always miss “having parents”, which isn’t the same as missing “your parents”. Making that distinction might help.

All these stories coming out about big crimes from the rich are awfully well timed. If I wanted a one time pass for something, I’d want to get convicted while there’s an easy to bribe cheeto king at the helm of the US.
See youre conflating 2 things again, assuming everyone’s mad probably.
All those stats are correct, so how could it possibly be that I would say such lies? I must be wrong, how weird.
You’re forgetting there are other people in this thread, and someone did misquote it in their argument. Talk about retcon, which you spend 0 minutes explaining but made up half your earlier argument.
The numbers aren’t even important. This is not a first time cancer breakthrough, this is a HPV awareness article with a sensationalized title. Nobody was arguing the numbers.
Big businesses know, they even ask people like me to add extra measures in place. I like to call it the concorde effect. Youre trying to make a plane that can shove air out of the way faster than it wants to move, and this takes an enormous amount of energy that isn’t worth the time save, or the cost. Even if you have higher airspeed when it works, if your plane doesn’t make it to destination it isn’t “faster”.
We hear a lot about the downsides of AI, except that doesn’t fit the big corpo narrative and people don’t care enough really. If youre just a consumer who has no idea how this really works, the investments companiess make into shoving it everywhere makes it seem like it’s not a problem and it looks like there’s only AI hype and no party poopers.
All this relies on retcon, which makes no sense. Easy to just say it in your corner though. I did read the article, but that doesn’t fit your narrative. You also had to add that i’m “mad” so it spins your way, when it’s others having to attack me direcly instead of making points. Nothing about my comment implies i’m mad except you spinning it that way.
Youre defending people who are saying the article says 94% of these can be avoided, when the article says 94% of cancers occur in those countries.please
Edit: *94% of cancer deaths, wouldn’t wanna “retcon my whole argument”. This is a bad title for a different problem. We haven’t even started with it “being the first time”. Youre trying to convince us other people are mad too, go figure.
Within “cervical cancer” theres are many types, in case you didn’t know, bruh.
People who get “lung cancer” can get various forms. The article isn’t taking about eliminating cervical cancer entirely, not even the one caused by HPV.
Which if you hadnt read, the article is arguing these deaths are mostly preventable in poorer countries as HPV has had a long awareness (and effective) campaign already, it’s not even primarily about cancer. The headline sucks.
OP already made that joke.
I do understand that this helps eliminate some of the variants. That’s not what the headline is saying.
Why not make it an article about HPV that would help with cervical cancer instead of a cancer article about HPV? Because clicks. It still wouldn’t eliminate 94, or 99% of cervical cancers, only HPV ones… Eliminate HPV doesn’t sound as good, we can’t even eliminate measles.
It says 94% of cancers occur in those countries. That’s a far cry from what youre implying.
Edit: I wouldn’t call bitching about cancer titles being blown of out proportion “contrarian” either
Lmao, HPV is not the only way you get cervical cancer. “Elimination of a cancer” is just not true. Maybe one specific type of cervical cancer.
It’s like saying we can cure colon cancer if we just stopped eating at McDonald’s. It’s simply not true.
I didn’t use the word “cure” in my comment.
Edit: Lmao was for the dwight level “Wrong” like youre unidan or something.
“a cancer” is not one thing, so you can tell the headline is full of shit already, even within the same organs the cancers are different.
This is about cervical cancer, which we can help avoid by avoiding things known to cause it, like preventing HPV with HPV vaccines. This isn’t eliminating cancer in any way, at best preventing it
He means the matter we know as galaxies today.
Our current theory implies that our space we know and love (bound by our time, spacetime) expanded at that moment. We know we shouldn’t be seeing older galaxies that look younger than others we know to be young. That’s what’s implied by these findings at least - they could still be explained by other things we have yet to discover, because we haven’t finished processing this data.
The title is just for the clicks.

They should have seized it at least
This will actually work. Theyre both megalomaniacs with fragile egos, putting him in Trumps shadow making it look like he’s being used by Trump will drive him crazy
Venusforming earth is a lot like terraforming mars, it’s just hard to reach. If 200 years ago we were able to easily reach mars, we would have fucked up that too
You know what the british did in WW2 when the got into german messages? They intentionally put out fake evidence to explain where the information could have been gotten from, to make sure they could use the code breaking machines as long as possible. They still pretended to try to get information in other ways even if not successful to maintain the facade it wasn’t all in the pocket already.
I’m not saying that’s what tiktok is, but I’m not not saying that, and the US sure as shit isn’t going to just admit they got hit like that.
