People are, generally speaking, mostly emotional creatures. Emotional comfort is often more important that facts.

Another example would be closing atomic plants.

Thank you. I shall try the Duck one

The way covid vaccine got politicized and whole epidemic turned into just another stunt to extract wealth from the poor really eroded the blind trust people have been putting in science.

What engines would you advise to someone who is thinking about ditching google?

To be fair, church-owned hospitals are pretty much closest thing to universal healthcare USA currently has. Government chipping in with their own universal healthcare would relieve a lot of cost, paperwork and trouble from the church.

May someone enlighten me on differences between europe.pub and piefed.europe.pub?

American allies? The guys american president calls shit, treats like shit, demands shit from them and gets insulted when they don’t like it? Those allies?

They ain’t gonna do shit for america.

I got ecotank, I can literally pour any ink I want inside and it works fine. Why would anyone buy HP?

I mean, I always assume that americans as a whole vote for whoever is representing average american the best.

There is also another similar trope, defined by “Any problem important to the plot that can be solved by 5min honest conversation between participating parties”

“If not for christian missionaries you would still be worshiping sun!” “Sun is real, bro…”

I guess I’m in both groups. I love LLMs, but then again I have academic degree in AI.

Though I must also admit - look how they massacred my boy. LLMs could be used in games to make every NPC a talkative character or work as a customer support during off-hours of small businesses… instead they are used to generate advertisements faster.

So a system my wife ended up with:

• Coffee is god, two Coffees a day is a must
• ADHD drugs taken only when it’s gonna be hard day at work, only before work and after hobbies
• A warm shower helps when drugs end their work, it’s a solid crash-out otherwise

Husband of ADHD person here, a second-person perspective if you wanna call it this way.

It kinda feels like I have two wives, because it’s very hard to internalize that one person can both be pedantic perfectionist in things they like and then lose their keys three to five times a day and leave clutter everywhere. She does complex physical activities and meditation without issue… but then documentation and complex IT systems look like random noise to her. The moment she finishes her task, all tools used vanish from her mind and are left wherever she finished that task. Nothing is ever back where it belongs and I act as mother from memes every day (the one that can always find what you lost).

Luckily we live in Poland, she got diagnosed in an hour (I like to imagine the doctors took one good look at her and said “yup”) and week later got confirmation and prescription for drugs. Drugs work silly - she can’t do her hobbies after taking drugs, but she can do her 9-5 job. Thus schedule was made so that she can have time for hobbies in the morning, and then take the drugs before work.

Eh, posting something a group disagrees with will always drag that group out.

It’s like posting “bicycles should be banned inside cities” to draw out cyclists.

And housing would be cheaper if it wasn’t treated as a value-retaining investment.

Eugenics have a bad rep since they were popularized by nazis. But hey - animal rights and identification documents were also initially nazi ideas and they gained traction.

I just hope, that when eugenics come back to public light again, they will come out of EU (regulated to hell and back) instead of USA or China. It’s one thing to eliminate genetic diseases or such, but completely another thing with steering people into some dystopian genetic hellhole.

Democrats have been moving to the right with their program like someone paid them to chase republicans on that stage
