Please note that the article disagrees with the headline. It states explicitly that there was no request.

In other words, the author feels free to lie to you.

They misnamed the website. It should "mediocre" not "medium."

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 10 points 4 months ago

Nah, I think Medium works. Just like a psychic, they're full of shit.

Google also appears to be continually shortening the distance they warn you about police presence on maps/Waze.

They can show me an accident 15 miles ahead on my route, but the cop icon only pops up if you're within line of sight of the damn thing now.

I wonder how long before cops can register their devices to be notified when someone flags police presence at their location on maps and/or allows them to track the location of the device that reported it.

Wow, this “article” just keeps repeating itself.

[–] gwl@piefed.blahaj.zone 10 points 4 months ago

This whole article stinks of written by AI

  1. This article likes to repeat itself a lot
  2. Is this article actually about how the author didn't like The Gilded Age?
  3. Only showing critic reviews and not showing user reviews seems like less of an issue than the article presents, given that a quick glance at Rotten Tomatoes shows that critic and user scores tend to be pretty similar but critic scores are lower 9 times out of 10

Don't be evil. Lol

[–] poopkins@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

If this were true, then why are Rotten Tomato ratings displayed prominently across Google TV?

(I understand that nuance isn't welcome on Lemmy, so please forgive me for contributing this.)
