Growing up my parents could afford to buy a house but didn't have the money to fix my teeth. Now I can't buy a house or fix my teeth, and my children don't even have any because I can't afford to have any children.

The enemy of my enemy type stuff.

Until quite suddenly we don't. There's going to be a massive population plunge in about 20 years with a large aging population and nobody to help fill the gap behind them. Granted, I think that's where AI and robotics can probably help which is what Japan seems to be banking on.

Musk: "AI is the greatest threat to humanity and needs to be seriously regulated before it destroys us all."

Also Musk: "So anyway, here's Wonderwall..."

They didn't. It's Warner Discovery. This office closed so the team could partner with Warner Animation.

Disney doesn't own CN. It's a Warner Discovery company. They just merged the offices with Warner Animation which was probably way overdue considering how tightly connected Warner had been with CN for as long as most of us can remember.

Considering the series is coming back this month, I think you should shut up and take my money

At least they can sell it to pay for some of the damages. King Alaskan Salmon ain't cheap.

It's literally the safest time to be alive in any point in human history, but OK. People really need to take a break from the melodrama of the internet once in a while. We have many potential and very real threats to our future, but quite literally there are more people with opportunities in life than ever. There are fewer global conflicts than basically ever. There is less violent crime in the US, EU, and most of the world than ever. It doesn't matter what it "feels like" out there, but the data doesn't lie. What you are seeing is a much wider vantage point to the world than in generations past. These stories you'd never heard give people the impression things are nothing but doom and gloom, but for more people than ever, it's quite the opposite.

Unfortunately these bills were really never going to stand up in court and I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did. The best way forward is to reintroduce the same scholarships and admittance but make them income based.

It's actually the other way around, but yes it's a regional thing usually for people along the Mid-Atlantic (and possibly a couple other areas) to distinguish the words. I'm guessing the BBQ history of the region itself is what drove that, but most of the rest of the US uses them fairly interchangeably.

This from the Westover AFB show recently? I caught very nearly the same photo. It was such a good show, and the Lightning is so impressive to see live.

Dropped Reddit a month ago after 12 years of daily use and while it was tough in the initial days Lemmy/Kbin activity has really picked up and is beginning to absolutely fill the gap. Just need the apps and a bit more stability and think it's going to be a proper successor.

It’s one of the only ways they can coerce our children into becoming fascists.

What makes them fascist to you out of curiosity?

They want to secure the whole first island chain. That would basically mean China has complete control of South Pacific sea trade and creates a huge amount of military security to the mainland. If China wants to fully control its region and block the US or Japan, they have to take Taiwan. I would prefer they don't, but I see the strategic purpose of they they might try.

Hello from Kbin. It's nice that we can hang out.

I'd prefer not to leave Apple with pretty much no competition in mobile OS if Android were to fail, unless we're just referring to Google the search engine, and not the parent company Alphabet.

Nobody cheated Bernie. He just wasn't popular enough to win. My god, move on.

France is becoming the Florida of Europe.

I think he's banking on a true spoiler candidate this time around. I'd say he doesn't have great chances, but he didn't in 2016 either. I won't rest easy until he's behind bars or chokes on a hamburger.
