More like a bribe.

This is becoming less and less true by the day. Salaries are dwindling while the stock market is roaring, and it's already the case that speculation brings more income in this coun…

"Everyone that disagrees with me is a bot or paid propaganda". Sure, go tell yourself that. The money is clearly on the pro-AI camp, and you'd have to be delusional to think it isn…

> Democracy and Liberalism are offshoots of Christian culture This is completely wrong. "Christian culture" was perfectly content with feudalism and the absolute monarchy for over …

I mean, they have been collecting young children.

In fact, the subprime mortgage crisis impacted the average Joe much more than the fuckers responsible for it, who ran away scot-free with fat money bags. The financial crash that w…

DOGE is simply a tool of global capital, and shouldn't be singled out as the root cause of anything. Its purpose was to cut money from being redistributed through government progra…

Yet adding them wouldn't make the game better, as it just wasn't designed around voiced lines. NPCs in Morrowind are much more numerous and verbose than in Oblivion or Skyrim. To s…

Morrowind wasn't meant to be narrated, NPCs blur out walls of text with hyperlinks in them leading to more walls of text. If I had to sit idle while someone/something was reading a…

Camus, for one.

Camus would call Buddhism, and other religions, "philosophical suicide", because you're basically believing in a made-up justification for your existence and what its purpose is. S…

But this use isn't specific to the Vision Pro, or am I wrong? What prevents things like that from running on any other VR headset, like my half-broken Quest 2?

Oh, I trust he'd be pandering to the Harris administration too, if they were in office. It's true that antagonizing China has been a constant in US politics for a while now. It's j…

He's just pandering to the lunatics in office. They're even quoting Vance, like he was a respectable and wise politician and not an insane puppet built by oligarchs and for oligarc…

> You’re just carrying a blank phone that you intend to set up and use later, and they can’t force you to install your backup onto a phone. They can just make this illegal too, and…

Is this 16GB for those so-called "Vibrant Visuals" or just for parity with the old version? If the latter, then what's the point of the transition to Vulkan if it quadruples resour…

I think my point still stands? For selective pressure to select anything, there has to be preexisting genes that predict how much someone wants kids. And again, cultural and materi…

[flagged]

Why did you just assume there are genes that predict "not wanting children"? It's happening uniformly all around the world, and is much better predicted by things like wealth and f…

> The way through is to change the way you relate to your work, and to appreciate the fact that you can now produce far more output. Yeah, just like artisans enjoyed being turned i…

Between China and the USA, the latter is the irrational agent. They were rumors that Trump attempted to use nuked on Iran recently, but was barred from doing so by some general.

It would be like calling Roosevelt a fascist because he said "Nazi Germany as a nation has no right to exist". It's ridiculous.
