Genuinely appreciate your and the other commenters' inputs, I really did only focus on his image outside of France. Thank you for all these examples!

I didn't play any Star Trek game... Except for Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Final Unity, which I found at a local flea market a few years ago. So it's that one by default!

It's an ok point and click adventure, I don't think it's even the best Star Trek point and click adventure available. I've never been too much into these sorts of games but I confess it was extremely nostalgic even though I had never played it before!

Man, I know people dislike Macron, and I still think his handling of the Le Penn situation last year was a dramatic misplay, but I've always had a huge amount of respect for him. Maybe because I don't live in France (although I was almost accepted into a job there earlier this year!), but he seems like such a role model in terms of political leadership. He's been handling the Trump/Putin situation much better than most other world leaders, in my opinion

Similarly, it turns any random hike or walk into a pokemon collection session. I used to hate going on hikes but now I am always looking forward to the next opportunity to add to my pokedex life list

Yeah I also don't understand this part. Can the antibodies targeting the bare spike protein attach to it despite the presence of the sugars? Or are there a few spike proteins in the virus which do not have the sugars, not enough to effectively develop antibodies but enough for already existing antibodies to attach to?

I may have missed it in the article, I'm not in life sciences so I don't have all the prerequisite knowledge for this

Edit: this came out sounding super negative, I'm actually super excited about this development and all I want is to understand a bit better how it works

I have seen variations on this online for a long time, and this has always baffled me: do strangers in America really go up to random people who are speaking foreign languages and tell them "you are in X, speak Xese", a language they may or may not speak? Even among people who share their native language?

Maybe I am in a different environment (particularly not being American), but the old scientists still exist and are still hard at work. In fact, all scientists I know (and I work in academia) care very little for misinformation on their day to day lives. They'll make fun of it, but don't have any more contact with them than anyone else. They still spend most of their time working on their actual projects. The only thing that changed is that now they're bending over backwards to include AI in their grants to make sure they're accepted, but having to include the latest buzzwords is nothing new.

Science communicators, on the other hand, yeah, those probably have their hands full with fixing misinformation.

Did you write this? This is gold

You just wanted to use an unique example. It's a honest mistake.

Wait, didn't the Greeks famously lose at Thermopylae? They'd turn it around later but that's one of the most famous "celebrated losses" in history

I propose dividing people into penised people and penisless people. I'm sure vagina is banned too but I can't remember

Spacing constraints led to accidental French in "Reset_Contagem"

And yet never implemented! Good guy Sony getting a patent so nobody else will do this

The nazis modeled a lot of their Reich on the Roman state (the eagle iconography was used by both). The Roman salute was just something else they took from their idea of the Roman empire

So I'm with you, I have no idea how "it's a roman salute" is supposed to make anything better

I'm sure this is true, but the post is from 2020, predating most people's concerns about AI data scraping.

Which just goes to show how most people are slow to catch on, since the idea of scraping social media for AI training has been around since Charles Babbage proposed it in a reddit post in 1846.

Always one of the first things I install with a new Arch Linux install! Not because it's useful or anything, I'm not delusional, but because it's hella cool

I'm really bad at noticing small details. Luckily 99% of AI artists use the same art style (with more or less Pixar influence for humans) so I can still spot AI imagery from a mile away

Reject EVIL ONENESS

You know, one possible explanation is that the dude was painfully unaware of time zones and the time cube was just his way of justifying how different places can all have sunlight at the same hour... And the fact nobody questioned how the sun can be up at 1pm in the US while also being up at 1pm in like Australia made him think it was a huge conspiracy

Makes some sense, I feel like I almost grew a brain tumor from seeing this picture

This idea would not be terrible, actually, you just need the right class allies on the other side of the line

Edit: to clarify, I meant having regular working-class people actively sabotaging it
