  • Although DeWave only achieved just over 40 percent accuracy based on one of two sets of metrics in experiments conducted by Lin and colleagues, this is a 3 percent improvement on the prior standard for thought translation from EEG recordings.

    The Australian researchers who developed the technology, called DeWave, tested the process using data from more than two dozen subjects. Participants read silently while wearing a cap that recorded their brain waves via electroencephalogram (EEG) and decoded them into text.

    Yep.

  • Not that it's necessarily what you're implying, but it's ridiculous to me that people think capitalism is an inevitable result of human nature but socialism isn't. Either of them are just ideas we made up. The benefits and flaws of each are the result of human nature, just with different influences and in different ways. Socialism may fail to account for the parts of human nature that you find relevant. Because you've been brought up in a capitalist system to believe that, OR you're directly benefiting from its exploitation. That doesn't mean those are the only relevant parts of human nature.

  • Pence was far from uncontroversial in Indiana before running for VP. The whole gerrymandered red state hated him as governor. If anyone saw him as uncontroversial they weren't paying attention. Which is kind of the point of the article, I guess.

  • Same, though I didn't realize it was now or never at the time. April 2020 I started the process of buying a house. Asked friends and family if I should wait to see what happened with Covid. They all said wait. I didn't. Another couple of months later and I would still be renting. I'm so glad I jumped.

  • I can't speak to The Last of Us, but Barbie only discussed toxic masculinity at a high level, systemically, not on a personal, one-on-one level. Not in a "Her boyfriend just raped her. Does that mean he loves her or not?" sort of way. We're all socially adept enough to sit back and say, "Of course not," from the outside. But it's never that easy or clear-cut from inside a relationship. THAT's what western media won't touch. There's a post on the front page about a politician apologizing for joking about spiking his wife's drink with a date-rape drug. What does that kind of relationship look like? Where is something like that explored in western media? If you can name some I'd be glad to hear it, and interested in watching.
