Yes, movement is undetectable unless you have something to track your movement against. In fact, there's no way to define "staying still" that's true for everyone in the universe.
You can only feel acceleration, not constant speed movement.
2x the speed of light is impossible. As things move faster, time slows down so they can't make as big of a change to their movement speed using the same amount of energy. Instead, lengths contract so your destination doesn't appear to be as far as it would have been at the start of your journey.
From your perspective, eventually things don't move faster by a noticeable amount, but the length of objects starts to shorten, so you can pass much more stuff at a slightly faster speed. You will never see anything move faster than light, it just shortens itself into a 2d object with 0 depth as it approaches the speed of light.
To be fair, not a single character in the Dune universe is a regular human. They're the equivalent of those plum-sized GMO strawberries at the grocery store.
They're saying that google services are dominant and anticompetitive, but not dominant BECAUSE they're anticompetitive.
Even if they were playing fair with competitors, they would still be #1 because they were that good. But because they weren't okay with giving competitors a fair chance, they resorted to anticompetitive practices that hurt consumers, and now this ruling is going to hurt google in return. They could have played nice and everything would have been better for everyone, but they didn't so here we are
Replacing people with AI creates a situation where the incentive for people to make original works is greatly diminished, so the ability of the AI to continue to improve is stunted by a lack of new training data. It's what we're already seeing with text-based language models and what we're starting to see with diffusion-based image models.
AI in art is inherently limited unless used only as a fine tuner on human made works. The fact that a work of art was made by humans is what makes it special in the first place.
Let them try to make games with only AI and see how they sell. This strike is to force producers to go "all or nothing" with AI, and choosing "all" is a terrible idea
IMO, whether or not Gwen is canonically transgender is irrelevant, because thematically the two are equivalent. Being spider-woman is allegorical for being transgender.
She knew she was different before anyone else did
The way that she's different would affect how others see her once they find out, very possibly putting her in danger, depending on who finds out and how hateful/vengeful they are.
She could theoretically quash that part of herself and live the way everyone expects her to, but to do so would be to kill a piece of who she is
She had to "Come out" to her dad (and not by choice, really. She only did so because she was caught with her new clothes.)
She wasn't accepted for who she was in that coming out, but knew it would be easier to live without her closest family member's support than to live without being herself.
She found a community of others like her, who all have unique but similar experiences and who are eager to support one another.
The colors may be an indication that Gwen specifically is trans, or a hint to the audience that to be a Spider-person is an allegory for being trans. Her character was designed with the white, pink, and blue color scheme in 2014, so it's not all that unlikely that the color scheme was an allusion to the trans pride flag on purpose. Maybe a writer or character designer clarified somewhere exactly how intentional or coincidental this Spider-Gwen/Transgender connection is, would be cool to see if so.
At the end of the day, the story serves to make people more empathetic to others who have to weigh their identity against their safety, especially in cases where the facet of their identity in question could be intentionally kept hidden.
Well as long as the TLD isn't used by anyone it should work internally regardless of what ICANN says, especially if I add it to etc/hosts
