UK, this is hitting basically all websites. Any site hosting adult content has to verify user ages for anyone in the UK, and instead of doing that many smaller sites are just geoblocking the UK. Easy to get around with a VPN, still absurd it’s happening.
Synthetic fibers are a fucking nightmare too, just actively sanding it and creating all those microplastics right there, without even washing it away, possibly BREATHING it!! gives me the heebie jeebies after learning about how much plastic is in our brains.
I don’t even want to think about all the microplastics created when people sand their builds they’re going to throw in the trash or ignore after a week. Small comfort that most people are too lazy to even do that. People are more careful around wood dust than microplastics, it’s nuts. And like, wood dust isn’t harmless either! Don’t breathe any of it, but definitely don’t breathe the plastics!
No, it sounds like a mindless statistics machine because that’s what it is. Even stupid people have reasons for saying and doing things.
That’s fucking great! I hope they are safe to use in people and make it to market soon.
Free range, pasture raised… would probably be a lot better if he didn’t use electronics ;p
Doing neither while hinting that other people should do the work sure is revealing of the problem, though.
Then people haven’t cut back. The production has to go somewhere, they aren’t making money shoveling it off a cliff.
You can’t get meat from a cow twice, you can get milk lots of times.
Not eating red meat is so fucking easy now. If I can be an old man who went to school uphill in the snow both ways for a second, I dropped meat 20ish years ago in the US deep south, and holy fuck talk about an impossible diet. Even the vegetables had meat in them, and that is not a joke.
This is obviously going to depend on your area and how much of a food desert you’re in, but I’ve never seen so much access to so many kinds of meat replacements in average grocery stores and not just bougie upscale places. Tofu, tempeh, fake meat everything! Which isn’t even a big part of my diet, but I love having the option when I want something new.
I think part of it is that they want to gaslight people into believing they have actually achieved AI (as in, intelligence that is equivalent to and operates like that of a human’s) and that these are signs of emergent intelligence, not their product flopping harder than a sack of mayonnaise on asphalt.
Public transit isn’t for socializing, it’s for traveling. Public spaces like parks, libraries, squares, etc that don’t require payment to use are for socializing.
More public transit and more public spaces. Transit that you don’t have to think about taking (because it’s safe, frequent, and cheap or free) takes you to new places or to familiar places more often, and lets you meet more people more often. And going outside and doing shit is just good for you, I’m sorry to report.
I don’t think so? Dude looks like he’d be a WASP if he wasn’t Catholic. Unless he was doing some internet sock puppet shenanigans or something.
Yup, even Cruz voted against it. Reality is truly stranger than fiction.
I thought the 1 vote had to be the Zodiac killer Ted Cruz, but no:
The one vote backing moratorium on state AI laws came from Thom Tillis, not Cruz.
Did he just not get the memo, or is he that paid off?
Sounds like meat floss. I’ve never had it, but several variations pop up pretty high when I sort snacks on Yami (Asian snack shopping site) by popularity.
Growing up and living in the US and then accidentally learning to taste the butyric acid after tasting chocolate without it made me sad :(
It sounds like they have some kind of wake function that it’s always listening for? I don’t think that’s a common feature in headphones just because of the battery drain, but they’re always chucking useless features on electronics so I’m sure some are floating around out there. I doubt it’s something you wouldn’t know about unless they were secondhand, though.
My options are severely limited since I don’t eat meat, but The Habit makes a really nice veggie burger. They have one of the fake meat burger brands as well, but those honestly make me gag a little with how greasy they are.
