  • I can so relate!

    "Self is an illusion!", "The meaning of life is to create meaning for the universe!" are so banal when you say it aloud, or even type.

  • That’s animal cruelty.

  • The goal of Hamas is not “to stop aggression” but to destroy Israel. So it was formed as response to Israel existence, to which many Muslims never agreed.

  • Aah! That kitty is so cute!

  • Those who think that labor market under capitalism gives uncompetitive salaries (that is below that what market would give in equilibrium) are wrong. The salaries are higher than supply and demand in equilibrium would give. This is why people do not want to lose the job, because they are afraid that other jobs would pay less (meaning that they are getting more than equilibrium would give) or that they just become unemployed. This is also why there is unemployment - businesses prefer to have less work places and pay more, so that they get the best employees.

    This is actually classical example where market (labor market) does not work as wished by market supporters (achieving no unemployment)- there always will be unemployment and at the same time there will be always unhappy people who are afraid of losing their jobs. But uncompetitive salaries is not one of the problems of the free labor market. Small salaries, maybe, but not uncompetitive.

  • If this opinion is indeed common, it is so fucked up. "Yes, he is criminal, but he is my race criminal, so I am glad that he could escape accountability because he is rich (while I am not)". This seems to me just insane, or at very least deeply immoral.

  • Thank you, kind stranger. Corrected.

  • I actually do agree. It is quite typical GOP thinking. Talk the talk, don't walk the walk.

  • AI is a tool, and one need to learn using it. But even today, just two years from introduction to the public (LLMs) it has lot's of uses. This is one of the fastest adoption of nearly any technology.

  • I heard they sell goat meat. But I am not sure.

  • I was in 7 dB zone, but it did not felt like 7 dB. Maybe 1 or 2 dB.

    Better?

  • In my area the clouds were of just right density to look at the sun without glasses. It was surreal.

  • Obviously not. Why would they admit that this is a problem of any kind? It is expected operation.
