How do I make a phone call to (not from) an elevator speaker, just like what a debt collector once did?

  • This joke works on so many levels

    • Since Volkswagen is a German company, the popular Jetta car is probably supposed to be pronounced "Yetta"

  • The same car has been sold under both names for some years but the jetta is still a thing there

    • What is your profession?

  • Werewolf? London by any chance?

    • AI chatbots unable to accurately summarise news, BBC finds

    Jump

  • Some examples of inaccuracies found by the BBC included:

    Gemini incorrectly said the NHS did not recommend vaping as an aid to quit smoking

    ChatGPT and Copilot said Rishi Sunak and Nicola Sturgeon were still in office even after they had left

    Perplexity misquoted BBC News in a story about the Middle East, saying Iran initially showed "restraint" and described Israel's actions as "aggressive"

    • TIL that the US is #10 in foreign aid per capita.

  • It looks like the graph was added less than a month ago. Image page says the following:

    Uploader preliminarily chose countries with populations above 8.5 million, adding Norway (smaller population) because it had the highest aid rate of all in 2023. Then, the twelve countries with the highest per capita aid rates were included in the final chart.

    If you want to update it I'd say go for it

    Edit: apparently the image was also added to the pages 'Aid' and 'United States foreign aid' by the same user so.. yeah

  • Some of the non-DAC members you mention are in the article, but agreed the graph is misleading

    • TIL that the US is #10 in foreign aid per capita.

  • Overall China spends more than the US and India about the same.

    • What's the rule for which 'national identity adjective' suffix to use?

    Jump

  • That's why people say Scouse and Manc (not to be confused with Manx)

    • Potential meme format

  • You said, "bitch," though?

    • Contemporary African Music is not getting the credit it deserves

  • Oh I fully agree but I wouldn't let it get in the way of a decent meme
