Do most people buy into the propaganda or is it just pretending to out of fear?

Was the millimeter wave stuff point to point?

Electoral college, propaganda, tribalism, stupid people.

I mean releasing said virus into the public; let’s say it’s airborne. That would violate bodily autonomy as we are modifying people without their consent. But yeah I agree it doesn’t really have too many downsides beyond potential for unintended consequences.

I think that once it’s viable it would be ok to release a virus which genetically modifies all humans to be more empathetic and to think more critically.

It would be a violation of bodily autonomy, which I generally do believe in, but I think it’s necessary for the productive and positive future of humanity on the single planet which we currently inhabit.

(Yes definitions of intelligence vary, and epigenetics and nurture play a role, but we’re talking statistics and a statistical improvement is still an improvement)

I mean it’s descriptive

Ah yes I see! That should offer some improvement given the number of times it’s called— also see I’m used to swift so I keep using let when I should probably use const— thanks I’ll give it a try and let you know what happens!

oh jeez! yeah that makes sense will add them to constructor thank you!

Ah good to know just using tabs in vim but in two different machines so might be the issue— thanks!

Intel does a lot, by which I mean they sponsor people to do it. Changing user facing utils is a bad idea as it breaks things. Although I don’t really keep up with it I know they’ve been changing things like the number of levels of pages etc, over time moving to sysd instead of init and stuff but the latter was a decade ago now. You can probably trace the maintainer to who sponsors them from here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel_version_history

I think both are valid you know? If you want to just make a cool looking character or go for some aesthetic then do it, but people (such as my sister) I think get a certain excitement from envisioning themselves casting spells etc.

Genetic engineering gone wrong

Smaller hitbox ftw

A cat deserving of those shades

I think you sorted things into three types of medicine:

[ pseudo, alternative, modern/mainstream ]

I think he believes that most things you put into the alternative category have already been mostly studied; those being not proved or disproved to work.

I think the that some issue here comes from the fact that conspiracy theorists / other (for lack of an agreed upon modifier) medicine gurus may have used the argument that some medicines aren’t proven to be bad yet as a way to give them legitimacy.

Whether or not other medicine is good for you should be be studied and determined to be medicine or not. Until then we can’t say anything about its efficacy. But there can be carry on effects: protein powder was found to have heavy metals, is protein powder good? Maybe in certain circumstances, but concentrating a given substance can have unintended consequences when not properly analyzed.

Hitler was not left leaning. He was supported by the old guard and the industrialists like Krupp until he out grew them and then turned on them. At the end of the day he was an autocrat, a totalitarian. Think was Gaddafi liberal? How about Suddam? They both had extensive social programs, but they were not left leaning. In the Weimar Republic it was the right wing courts that tried to censor and throw people in jail, and often let the right wing activists off the hook for similar offenses. Left and right wing groups can both censor and throw people in jail, ie USSR, but generally this is in service of totalitarianism, the ideology at that point is just a husk to keep people in line while people vye for control.

The poor whale x.x. I throught for sure the cat was going to climb the mountain and see the elk herd circling like in their dream.
