But wasn’t he just claiming a few weeks back that Kamala Harris wasnt black enough?

Sure Donny. Their rhetoric is of violence and intolerance for their fellow man. Right.

I really only need like 2 or 3 mm of extra nail on one thumb to open oranges and grapefruits perfectly fine. Anything longer than that and it becomes unwieldy and unhygienic.

I accept that people sometimes keep their nails long. That acceptance comes with a caveat that I will not be eating anything handled by hands with long nails.

If chat GPT were anywhere as advanced as Data I would 100% accept him as a coworker. The problem with LLMs isn’t that they’re not people, the problem is that they lack any sense of logic and abstract reasoning, relying on heuristic analysis to cover that weakness. As a result, they’re quite frequently wrong, and don’t have a way to know when they might be wrong, leading to them presenting every answer with the same level of confidence.

Who let JD Vance onto Lemmy?

I have a feeling USB drives will be readable for a long time to come, considering that we still use the standard almoat everywhere, nearly 28 years after its introduction.

That said, copying the data from old archives into new formats is always a good idea

Edit: I was envisioning actual external hard disk or solid state drives accessible using a USB connection. Thumb drives and other ultra-portable data formats are notorious for poor data integrity over time.

I personally agree with you on nearly all points, but it’s not what’s being argued by both major parties so I opted to leave it out of my original comment. I would argue that even if those changes couldn’t be made because politics, that at least documenting everyone who enters would have the effect of more accurate data than census and job reports can provide, because one is a 10-year process and the other is excluding non-working immigrants and those who do work exclusively under the table

Uncontrolled immigration IS a bad thing, because properly documenting the people who enter our country is vital for providing public services in a manner that reflects the population makeup.

Nearly everyone agrees that undocumented border crossings should be reduced, they disagree on how to do this.

That said, a failure to counter incoherent nonsense does not an acceptance make. Strive to post less sensationalist headlines

Not to mention, he tends to spend his money by investing in startups that (as far as I can tell) actually solve a problem. He’s not one to cut corners and inflate values needlessly, and he’s far more concerned with making a business successful than extracting every penny of profit possible.

Do I think it’s bad that one man has as much power has he does? Absolutely. Am I glad that at least one man with as much power as he does uses it to make the world a little better? You bet.

Mark Cuban is not an example of why Billionaires should be allowed to exist, he’s just an example of how being a billionaire doesn’t NECESSARILY mean you’re an evil person.

Yeah I get a big popup that says “Plaintext is exclusive to subscribers” on the direct link. However if I enable reader mode, navigate to the author’s page, then navigate back, it works fine

There should be a fast food union

Once, during the jeopardy Masters tournament, they prompted “The bubbly type of Alka-Seltzer can contain sodium or potassium bicarbonate, both types of this neutralizer”

Jennings didn’t accept “Base” or “buffer” when looking for “Antacid”

They overturned the ruling after the break and eventually credited both answers

This is the most incredible article I’ve ever. EVER. Read.

This will change the world, so long as the word gets out and Big Pharma doesn’t somehow force the government to crack down on it and stop people from accessing the materials they need to make their own meds.

Legos aren’t single-use plastic though. Not all plastic is bad, just the plastic that gets thrown away after geing used once.

Legos aren’t breaking down and polluting the environment just by sitting on a shelf in a nerd’s display case

Adjusted for time since release, 4 more to go!

I think I know what you mean. It’s like the Internet has allowed us to share how fucked up each and every corner of the world is and it aggregates the worst of it and puts it on full display. So now I can’t really feel anything when I see headlines as awful as this, I just turn into an unfeeling psychopath. Luckily my moral brain and my feeling brain are different, and the moral brain still wants to do something about this injustice, however I can.

Plastics are only plastics when many separate (often gaseous) molecules called monomers form large chains or webs called polymers. If you vaporize a polymer, it gets reverted to being many monomers
