Dave Chapelle is a hero. Downvote me all you want but drawing a distinction between sex and gender is pure delusion at best and a mental disease at worst.
People in India just need jobs. It’s not even functional in many cases though the presence of a person feels nice in a lot of these places.
Anecdotally I always fall asleep within 15 mins, usually much sooner so this is an individual decision.
Re:Paris suspends electric bus fleet after two fires on Saturday April 30, 2022 @10:32AM (#31216358)
The Scandinavians are doing a good job of being ahead of us environmentally. Probably only behind China in electric bus adoption.
I think it makes sense. Women go back to the kitchen and men get paid more since there are fewer candidates for the same jobs. On the other side since the mother stays at home, kids are raised well.

To be honest, a lot of Africa would be orders of magnitude better with a booze ban but it’s too late to put that genie back in the bottle.

You can if it only impacts reproductive success a few generations down the line.
Nonsense, kids have met up in car centric suburbs in the US for decades now. The problem is a combination of stranger danger, nosy, entitled neighbors and the incredible powers of CPS and the internet/video game indoor culture.

Ozarks feminist trash after the first season, the Witcher feminist trash in how they changed the characters from the game, stranger things is a poster child for feminist trash, the crown is literally about one of the handful of women rulers and I haven’t watched the umbrella academy.
Yes Stranger things was feminist trash. Compared to the games, so was Witcher.

Humans did the same just with what’s other humans did before them. Would a Dall-e 2 trained only on other Dall-e images satisfy what you’re gatrkeeping here?

They do all the things you mentioned. There’s definite social commentary (cognitive merchant) and several of them are emotionally evocative.

That’s exactly what humans do too which is why is easy to break down art into schools/styles/epochs

Move on to the next scarce thing until we get to the point with true general AI and then we utopia away.

It’s a guy not a group.
Pretty sure all the Vedas were passed down for millennia as word of mouth. The aborigines seem to have stories of floods from 10,000 years ago.

So two Indians and two Chinese authors. The new world is incredible.
Re:Dall-E 2 on Friday April 08, 2022 @01:04PM (#30959708)
Nonsense, I think the opposite is true where if you can satisfy your urges in a way that doesn’t put you in jail for a decade, most people will take that route.
Re:Dall-E 2 on Friday April 08, 2022 @01:03PM (#30959691)
When you put it that way… yes since no one is hurt in the process and people with pedophilic conditions may be deterred from doing something in real life.
I agree, knowing people that sell drugs doesn’t mean you’re “inclined” to do anything. The only thing is you can’t really accept heroin to sell.

Waymo is San Francisco is actually doing a fantastic job. With just what we have there we could do most driving, maybe even including last mile.
It wasn’t deciphered. The closest link we have found are to Dravidian languages like Tamil but these are tenuous at best.
Re:Canada to ban foreigners from buying homes on Thursday April 07, 2022 @12:46PM (#30947015)
That’s a ridiculous amount of regulation to enforce and frankly is very restrictive. Why shouldn’t people have two homes.
Re:Canada to ban foreigners from buying homes on Thursday April 07, 2022 @12:44PM (#30946985)
Well investment companies buy to resell. If there is a glut of new houses prices will definitely go down in the medium term.
Re:The genius of fishing with tidal weirs on Thursday April 07, 2022 @09:06AM (#30943899)
It’s a literal no brainer. I’ve always though the problem is that they catch all the fish which is undesirable.
Re:Welcome to 'Le Monde' in English on Thursday April 07, 2022 @09:02AM (#30943868)
Propaganda is a strange word to use when the alternative you’re implying is literally batshit insane blood libel level conservative drivel.
Re:In praise of mass-market American tacos on Thursday April 07, 2022 @05:08AM (#30942265)
India also used a lot of black pepper in its cuisine (which is local) before chili arrives on the scene. I looked into the pre chilli cuisine of south India a few years ago and it was very interesting and pepper heavy.
Re:In praise of mass-market American tacos on Thursday April 07, 2022 @05:06AM (#30942256)
What was Italian food like before then? It’s all very interesting, I definitely care.
