I guess you would have a point if Israel didn't routinely bomb civilians and didn't routinely lie about it.

Congrats, you are a mouth piece for the oil industry and part of the problem.

You clearly can't grasp the real complicated scenario so he gave you a simplified version to make it easier to understand.

Anyone with even an ounce of empathy understands why Israel bombing children is always unacceptable. Nobody should need to explain it to you really

"These new data suggest the top 130 feet of the lunar surface are made up of multiple layers of dust, soil, and broken rocks, Feng said. Hidden within these materials was a crater, formed when a large object slammed into the moon. Feng and his colleagues hypothesized that the rubble surrounding this formation was ejecta — debris from the impact. Farther down, the scientists discovered five distinct layers of lunar lava that seeped across the landscape billions of years ago."

Just in case anyone thought it was actually going to be some type of structure like caverns or something like I did.

Anyone know what they mean when they ask for protection from AI? Voice synth is going to be very big for video games seeing the massive amount of NPCs certain games have. I don't think Microsoft is the kind to play ball and limit what they can do with AI

I'm gonna post the whole article because it's garbage, has no substance and I don't believe people should click on the link. Do better, GameSpot.

"Bethesda is about to launch Starfield, but what's coming next? Bethesda Game Studios is making The Elder Scrolls VI and then Fallout 5, so the studio is staying quite busy. In a new interview with GQ, Bethesda's Todd Howard shared a few new morsels about The Elder Scrolls 6 and discussed when he might retire from making games.

Starting off with the game's announcement in June 2018, Howard said he often wonders if it was the right thing to announce it so early. "I have asked myself that a lot," he said. "I don't know. I probably would've announced it more casually."

Howard also confirmed that The Elder Scrolls 6, or whatever it's called, does already have a codename but he would not reveal it. As for what he could say, Howard said the game aims to "fill that role of the ultimate fantasy-world simulator."

"And there are different ways to accomplish that given the time that has passed," he said.

Howard is 53 now and said it's "weird for me" to think about retirement, something he believes is a "long, long way off."

"I want to do it forever," he said. "I think the way I work will probably evolve, but… look at [71-year-old Mario creator and Nintendo legend Shigeru Miyamoto]. He's still doing it," Howard said.

In addition to his duties on Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6, Howard is an executive producer on the new Indiana Jones game in the works at Machine Games"

No, no straws for anyone, and take away their special ramps too. It's all or nothing because that's the only way my argument works. Color spectrum, exceptions? All I see is black and white.

I'd tend to trust someone haunted by a rainbow personally, I don't think it's the best plan

Oh fuck off. They wanted it to spy on their own citizens and those of its allied nations. They wanted the same backdoor google, Facebook, Microsoft and all our telecom companies give them.

I've seen a lot of bad takes but this takes the cake. There isn't anything virtuous about mass spy programs and no way was any actual chinese data even on the table.

Both are unacceptable but clearly Israel is more so. In a hostage situation, you don't bomb the neighborhood. I'd also like to point out that nobody is really defending Hamas, which is more acceptable is missing the point entirely.

Israel has serious military advantage, they can basically force a cease fire at any time. They aren't under threat and tbh, probably let the events that started all this happen for causus belli.

The article talks about a mostly symbolic UN vote that was vetoed by the US at the request of Israel. They don't want a ceasefire, they don't want their hostages back, they don't want a solution.

They just want to keep bombing.

Go in your options and disable the app. I use Firefox as well and it opens them up directly in there now.

Less than a dollar per kg! I think that's honestly the most impressive part.

Do you think 100% of our population and agriculture lives by the coast? Sure we have elaborate and resource intensive solutions to the problem, we could eventually just move the whole population(what's left) into domed cities by the coast, but it be better to just not fuck up our environment constantly and hold those that do accountable.

Not sure what point your trying to make her but it's not a good one.

Performed when requested, no questioned asked.

The purchased service is internet. I should be able to use it how I want, including supplying it to other devices through my phone. This is the equivalent of Netflix not letting us cast onto tvs.

Not sure what you are defending here, this is clearly unethical and gross corporate behavior.

The problem is that copyright law is never used by the small artists to protect their work, it's only used by big corporations to put down the small artists, fuck with each other and find loop holes to abuse of it.

There's what it should be for and what it's actually used for.

Opposed to google?

Things might change but right now, you simply don't need anyones authorization.

Hopefully it doesn't change because only a handful of companies have the data or the funds to buy the data, it would kill any kind of open source or low priced endeavour.

Use Firefox with adblocker then disable the YouTube app so it goes with Firefox as your default

The corporations already have all the data, users literally gave it to them by uploading it. Open source only has scrapped data. If you start regulating, you kill open source but the big players will literally just shrug it off.

Traditional artists already lost. It sucks but now we get to find out if the winner is all of society or only just Adobe and Shutterstock.

I had my insurance company ask me for my phone number for security purposes. It was an old one I had since replaced and forgotten, so they read it out to me and asked me to confirm it.

Anything else is going to bite US in the ass. Asking for consent kills any kind of open source development. It puts AI solely in the hands of like three companies. Our economy is going to be very AI focused in the future, they would literally own all of us.

You aren't getting paid either way so we might as well all enjoy the fruits of humanities labor freely instead of been forced into a subscription model of it.

90% of datasets are created with chatgpt, this is nothing new or a faux pas like is implied in the article. It is against the terms of service but it's also largely considered unenforceable. Openai can ban your account for it I guess (they never do) but they can't sue over this or anything of the sort.

You can still build a garden by hand even if it's commercially done with machines. It will be the same with drawing, voice acting, etc.

The problem is and has always been capitalism and the rich that abuse of it, not automation.

The pop up specifically mentions chrome, it's not asking to switch browser but just the search engine. It's anecdotal but I only use Firefox and have never gotten this pop up.

Shipping was sabotaged and it just doesn't make sense to buy local. The item is more expensive and there's a 30 to 60 dollar shipping fee tagged on. It's usually the same made in china quality.

For work related stuff, I bypass both and get straight from China.

I don't like it but the gov didn't step in and basically handed half our economy to Amazon. At the height of it, they decided to sell our national shipping service so prices went up (I'm in Canada btw).

In a perfect world, amazon would get the boot and we would have a government owned drop shipping infrastructure. Until that happens, I'm not ready to pay 3x the price for simple items just to keep a dead dream alive. Local got snuffed when it comes to consumer goods.

No one is upset about people burning a Koran in their backyard firepit. The example is very similar to what is happening.

Some subreddit are a treasure trove of technical information. It's like if your ex was a renovation specialist and you kept her phone number in case you decide to redo your kitchen. Except the phone number leads to a carbon copy of your ex, so the cheating bitch never gets to find out just how much you miss her. Fuck you Maria, you broke my heart.

Solar storms arent really a risk for small electronics, more so if they aren't connected to the grid. You wouldn't need a deep vault, more like a cupboard.

There is a risk the hard drives wear out before society gets the grid back online and restarts producing hard drives though. We already don't have that many facilities and they would certainly be taken offline, and the knowledge to build those facilities, that might get lost properly when the storm would hit.

It does feel like a lecture sometimes, even with stuff that is just difficult and not immoral.

I remember when hazing was a thing and there was a scandal because a teenager got sodomized with a broomstick.

If Apple and Nike get in on this, we've got all the similarities

I would choose a character and concentrate on learning him. There are builds online you can use to not get over whelmed at first by the shop.

I play an other MOBA but there is probably a lane that has two players for most of the match, you should concentrate on playing one of those two types of characters so you and your son can maximise play time together, most likely the tank would be the better choice (more forgiving, easier to learn, support character so your son gets to be the hero).

Children that grow up in an apartheid state don't need to be taught who their oppressor is. Having your childhood filled with corpses of friends, family and classmates already does that.

I really enjoyed the 12 monkeys series as well. The movie is great.

I'm the opposite. If someone does it at home, they probably do so regularly while a vacation is once every now and then. I've known a couple of normal people that did it on vacay, it's just another facet of the party for them, letting down their hair etc. The ones I know that do it at home tho...yikes. But it's all kind of gross regardless.

This would actually be insane for music creation. The few times I had dreams where I was playing an instrument, it was pure fire

I use fusion 360 personally. I like the 2d sketch to 3d aspect. There's a free version for personal use, you just have to look for it since they tend to hide it on their website

Car accidents happen all the time, that is why at the first sign of a potentially dangerous situation, I quickly drive into a wall instead.

I burst out laughing
