I really have no problem viewing him as both a hero and traitor at the same time. I am not sure why we struggle so much with that idea given the complexity of the situation.

Haha spot on. My hang out was this broken slide at an abandon playground. Or you could climb on the metal bar in the overgrown weeds. There is just no way I would be doing that in …

To me, if you watch videos of what amateurs can do with the maneuverability of a $300 racing FPV drone it is most likely those are military drones of some sort. Even a $300 racing …

I am sure this is just the beginning. The gym I go to is closing shop because I think the rent the commercial property owner has to charge is not worth it to the gym owner but to c…

The strangest thing about our society is that we have absolutely no problem with dramatizations of killing and murder in movies. Even to the point of having an entire genre of "Hor…

Well you can gain a free GPU hour by rating images. I am pretty sure midjourney is doing some kind of reinforcement learning from human feedback. The 5.1 raw model is simply unbeli…

I think this will be quite successfully marketed as a status symbol. Obviously, it was intentional to create a scenario that there are viral videos of people gasping at the price r…

I would think cigarette smoking is a big variable in the effect too. People living in poverty, uninsured, didn't graduate high school are all variables we know correlate with a hig…

That is a great analogy. That is how I remember it also. More high brow and not something you would really watch for an hour straight. The old CNN was meant to be as "entertaining"…

I use to watch Al Jazeera America all the time but it only lasted a few years on TV here. It was totally non-partisan from what I remember. Focused so much on the world outside Ame…

As if that question makes the idea less insane.

I think this is a huge stretch. I would have a hard time even calling it immoral if the whole site vanished tomorrow, without reason. Surely, there is nothing in writing that has b…

The article is basically trash. If anything the content of the article is the opposite of the headline. To me, on a 50+ year time frame, the rupee is more interesting than any of t…

It is delusional for sure. The kid that hits puberty is going to figure out a way to watch porn on their phone if they have a phone. The phone has to practically be useless for the…

What we currently know as social media is going to be destroyed and I can't wait. Do you really think it will be difficult for groups of AI to beat the quality of discussion on Twi…

I just tried watching some of The Frost from this link but it looks pretty terrible considering you can do literally anything.

As if your body is in the same state after working out than if you had sat on the couch doing nothing. As if the only change happens during the time you are actually working out. A…

This is simply wrong. None of this stuff is even complicated.

It is even more ridiculous when there are about 3 months of the year when people decorate their front lawn with giant snow men with blinking lights, giant skulls and witches that b…

IMO this is a bogus perspective. Any culture activity ultimately needs curation or you end up with shit. I am an American that grew up near the border and always listened to Canadi…

I would say the most interesting thoughts I have read on this are from Blaise Aguera y Arcas from Google last summer. He believes we basically anthropomorphize each other. He made …

I have to try to get through Guns, Germs and Steel again. Excruciating detail is a good way to put it with that book.

We don't know what happened. No one would should say they "believe" what happened. It is not a matter of belief. Auto downvoting things like this though at this stage is just absol…
