I still listen to Dancing Mad

Just the opposite.

I left reddit because they don’t censor nazis hard enough and will actually ban people for reporting hate speech, calling it an “abuse of the reporting system”.

and a lot of other parts where its just people talking at legnth - its only interesting the first time, but its almost half the game and really detracts from replayability

What is there to talk about? When Russia GTFO of Ukraine the war is over.

a black hole

assuming a thing into existence isn’t a satisfying answer

where did your black hole come from? another black hole?

might as well just claim its turtles all the way down

And the presence of a large carnivore at the end implies the food chain is healthy all the way down.

AI does not learn and transform something like a human does.

But they do learn. How human-like that learning may be isn’t relevant. A parrot learns to talk differently than a human does too, but African greys can still hold a conversation. Likewise, when an AI learns how to make art by studying what others have made, they may not do it in exactly the same way a human does it, but the products of the process are their own creations just as much as the creations of human artists that parrot other human artists’ styles and techniques.

Everyone should be assumed to be able to look at it, learn from it, and add your style to their artistic toolbox. That’s an intrinsic property of all art. When you put it on display, don’t be surprised or outraged when people or AIs look at it.

I hope that includes what other sites would call “strictly necessary”. No thanks, if your site won’t work without, then I don’t need to visit.

That’s not just an idea - its physical reality. You can’t get your physical needs met in old age if you didn’t win the lotto. Suicide is the retirement plan for most of us non-boomers.

USA and Morocco signed a treaty 1786 which remains the longest unbroken relationship in U.S. history, in 2004 Morocco was declared a “Major Non-NATO Ally”, and Morocco’s military and law enforcement train and work together with their U.S. counterparts.

There were two hybrid minivans on the market a couple years ago when I went shopping for one. One plug-in from Chrysler and a non-plug-in from Toyota. Both cost about as much as a Model 3.

Or maybe an accessibility improvement. You don’t need to practice creating your own works of art over many years anymore, or have enough money to commission a master artist. The AI artists are good enough and work for cheap.

I too like them thicc af.

Bikers really need their own infrastructure that’s kept entirely apart from where cars are. Bikes and cars sharing the same road is terrifyingly unsafe for both.

always has been

While we’re digging shit up, lets lay some fiber.

A “free” cup of coffee that you need to buy food and pay medical bills for.

That’s still too cheap.

There’s probably a price that could be paid to encourage a higher birth rate, but I doubt the governments who have attempted such programs were willing to aim high enough.

Context matters in this discussion.

The moderators of the lemmy instance OP got banned from have Russian and Chinese iconography in their profiles - its explicitly authoritarian and arguably communist in name only in order to attract naive idealists who otherwise would be against authoritarianism.
