They’re gonna fuck it up and crash it into Lima, I’m calling it

They don’t plow into the ground. They enter it in a perfect vertical akin to top Olympic divers, and to claim any less is libel

Anyone working with dates and times was cursed in a past life. Timezones are a pain to work with. Daylight savings sucks. Some countries change daylight savings at different times. Some countries change timezones sometimes. Go further back and some countries had their own leap days. Different calendars don’t form neat cycles and must be manually synchronized every few years. Did you know Easter, for about 300 years, needed to be announced by the Pope each year because it was a lunar holiday based on a Jewish calendar but the Christians followed a different one? Also, every now and again we throw a leap second into the computers because the Earth’s rotation is gradually slowing down and 365/366 days isn’t quite precise enough anyways.

Others have covered it but the API pricing was $12,000/50 million requests, which is absurd bordering on comical.

Trade unions are good insofar as they’re the levers of collective action, but they’re not really anti-imperialist or even socialist, since their primary concern is their membership.

Code is pretty small but images, textures, voice lines, etc can crank it up

There’s no real point to nfts as licenses though. The only party that can authenticate a license, the creator, wouldn’t want to give up their control over licenses, and the wouldn’t want to resell used licenses because… Why? That’s a ton of work to implement when they can just sell a new license.

If we’re doing gene editing maybe we solve for shit like sickle cell before erasing neurodivergence idk

.ee

Bad take factory. Opinion discarded.

For sure they know, it’s just cops are lazy and aren’t paid to solve crimes

Arms manufacturers want more $ and can’t get more $ if the stockpiles are full

Article seems to push the point that you can, in fact, buy a “last-gen” phone and it’ll be just as effective as the current gen. Which is true, since phone improvements are marginal or just shit that includes image-editing AI in the camera firmware since the diminishing improvements of hardware are really starting to kick the manufacturers’ ass.

Some people genetically just don’t smell bad when they sweat

There’s a bunch of creatures that don’t use oxygen but they’re mostly all prokaryotes, since oxygen metabolism unlocks a shitload of energy you can use for being large and complex.

Most countries that aren’t America aren’t inundated with anti-China rhetoric, so if someone starts spouting off about China (and especially Chinese civil rights, or uses the term “CCP”) in English they’re almost certainly an American.

Does China lag behind the west in terms of queer rights? Yes. We’re critical of that but also recognize the grassroots initiatives within the CPC to change that, and support those efforts. Does China pollute more in raw numbers than America? Yeah, but they’re also the global leader in green power production, so they’re clearly working to fix the emissions problem, which we support. China also takes a non-imperialist stance internationally, which is far and away better than anything America has ever done internationally.

I agree, those dicks definitely could be doing better with their money and we should take it away from them for societally useful things.

A damning condemnation of your education system, to be certain
