“Why can’t we live in a world where women don’t have to think about these things? It’s heartbreaking to hear of things women close to me have dealt with,” Chaney said. “It would be nice to work towards a world where there is no difference between the heat maps in these sets of images. That is the hope of the public health discipline.”

I’m not convinced this phenomenon would disappear in a world where women don’t have to think about these things. It could be an evolutionary psychology thing. Would have to repeat the experiment in different societies and environments to find out.

I take offense to that. I’m a guy who hates cats but still doesn’t think they should be declawed.

Erityisesti ihmetyttää, et jos tarkoitus on kasvattaa häiriönsietoa, mitä vikaa ihan tavallisessa analogisessa käteisessä on? Sen käyttö ei kaipaa infraa, tunnistamiseen riittää yleensä silmä, pahimmillaan UV-lamppu, eikä sitä tartte tunkea kiinalaisten valmistamaan puhelimeen.

Hankalampi kantaa mukana, helpompi varastaa, käyttäessä tulee vaihtorahaa eli käytännössä vielä vaikeammin mukana kulkevia kolikoita. Vaatii myös pankkiautomaatin käyttöä, joka on infraa, joka saattaa häiriötilanteessa olla rikki.

A white horse walks into a bar.

“You know, we’ve got a drink named after you”, says the bartender.

“What, Eric?”, says the horse.

It’s C++ and a bespoke Lisp language and AFAIK most of the remaining issues are graphics programming related, so good luck learning that.

For Jak and Daxter there’s OpenGOAL which is basically a native fan port of the games for PC. Last I checked the third game still had some issues but the others were pretty much perfect.

I’m not sure what you mean by “crackly bubbles”. Many plants (possibly most of them) use electrochemical signaling, which at the very least resembles the hormonal system in animals. The simplest animals are definitely less complex, neural processing wise, than the most complex plants – consider for example sponges (literally no nervous system of any kind) vs. the venus flytrap (capable of rudimentary counting; the trap only closes when the hairs are triggered a certain number of times within a certain timeframe).

There’s also tons of animals whose nervous systems aren’t at all similar to that of humans. Insects and arthropods for example don’t really have a brain, just lumps of ganglia that do some rudimentary processing, and unsurprisingly most people don’t really consider insects to be capable of having any kind of meaningful sentient internal experience.

At times of peak production yes, but it’s an apples to oranges comparison because solar and wind do not produce 24/7. They therefore either need grid-scale storage, which isn’t accounted into their costs because it doesn’t currently even exist at the necessary scale, or supplementary load-following base generation. Nuclear is the cleanest option by far for the latter.

Many people also don’t want windmills next to their city/town or whatever. So what?

How is it a problem if something is expensive and takes time if over its life cycle it warrants the costs? Such a short-sighted way of thinking.

The “???” suggests they didn’t get the joke. Like come on, not even a sarcastic “very funny, 2/5”?

Matrix.org is really slow, but I’m on a smaller home server and things are generally fast enough. While it doesn’t make your point any less true (there are still times things are far too slow), you might want to try finding a smaller home server if you currently use matrix.org.

How do you force someone with no morals to resign?

Finally a Star Wars meme to explain the geopolitical situation so I can understand it.

Even better is to memorize it.

In a series of American things I’m too European to understand, we have the rearview radar for bicycles.

It also works for Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto. It didn’t use to work for Akita Neru but looks like they added that after people pointed out they forgot her lol.
