This made me remember that "trumping"/"trump" were already synonyms for "farting"/"fart" when I was a little kid in the UK. Yet another thing the orange horror has ruined smh

When I owned one years ago, I legit had no idea for the first few months.

The first time I clicked it with the power off I panicked and assumed I'd somehow jammed it or something. 😄

Sadly our dumb voting system means the minority may get elected 😬

That doesn't have the specific story I'm thinking of (and I don't recognise the blog/author), but it's good to know there's an endless parade of similar stories. 😬

It was probably Reddit but I haven't used it for a long time, so no idea where I found it.

I read a thread somewhere where abortion clinicians were sharing their experiences.

Someone said they frequently got told they were going to hell, by women who were in the middle of their abortion and holding their hand at the time.

I've been thinking about it ever since. The mental gymnastics on these people.

I feel like this wouldn't go the same on Reddit nowadays.

Oh my god. Yes. (I won't tell if you don't.)

There's the slow-and-not-very-capable link preview thing... and I could've sworn the "what's new" page the other day said they were adding an on-device model to improve search results or something, but I can't find the reference to it now.

Maybe they removed it after all the AI backlash. 😬

Because that's what their parents told them

Every product we build must give people agency in how it works. Privacy, data use, and AI must be clear and understandable. Controls must be simple. AI should always be a choice — something people can easily turn off. People should know why a feature works the way it does and what value they get from it.

Come on, this isn't Reddit, at least skim the article before you start with the performative outrage.
