This headline could have run last week, just with the last word dropped.

Great take. We must ask ourselves: what happens the day after the revolution?

This is so beyond flakes. This is the fascist purge of the “disloyal” before a full on dictatorship…

The PNAS article. Cool research!

I’ll take hypocrisy over shamlessness every time.

I mean, I’m pretty sure Yugoslavia was never a part of the North Atlantic area. Unless we’re counting the Mediterranean Sea. But I don’t think that helps the argument here…

The countries you mentioned were all built on a genocide of their indigenous inhabitants to establish an ethnostate. They each, however, have since at least acknowledged that ethnostates are bad and have structured their charters/constitutions on the principle of strict equality for its citizens.

Israel, on the other hand, is currently in the process of establishing a Jewish ethnostate with an outspoken intention of creating at best an apartheid state, if not a completely ethnically cleansed state.

I see a clear difference in ongoing behaviour, and I don’t think the ideas are as conjoined as you present them.

This is a false equivalence.

Can you articulate what you mean by a state having “a right to exist”?

This is just an add…

I used to do this until my ADHD was diagnosed and managed specifically. Other medical problems might be something worth looking into, instead of just continuing to berate yourself into moving. You can be kind and still expect something of yourself.

The urge to do this is real, but talking to yourself like a kind, loving, and forgiving friend can do amazing things. You can practice by making a point of being a kind, loving and forgiving person outwardly, and one day you might just find yourself doing it internally too.

Absolutely do not do this to a peeled banana like in the photo. It’s easy for it to break off and get stuck in your throat. Just use a dildo ffs.

Also: AI-slop.

1. The nearest two hitches are pixel-perfect square to the camera.
2. The tailpipe on the first truck on the right melts into a smudge.
3. There is almost no detail in the concrete even though all the trucks are in sharp focus.
4. All shadows have an ethereal quality and the light seems to have an inconsistent directionality.
5. The ball on the white truck melts into the white line behind it.
6. The green truck behind the white truck has a fender that seems to melt into a wheel.
7. The box on the orange truck on the left seems to be about 3’ deep.

Lol. I encourage you to zoom in and look at the details.

What in the GPT is going on with the hitches in the distance?

The protection is understood to basically be by them from them, in the event you don’t pay. If you pay, things are good. If you don’t, they’ll make sure things are not good.

Is it?

If only there were a huge trove of nutrient dense biscuits nearby. Too bad that one that did exist was incinerated by the Tump regime just days ago. A tragic coincidence I’m sure. /s

I suppose we’re about to find out if these things (LLMs) are any good at extrapolation. I expect not really as they’re effectively just interpolation machines.

Either I missed it or they added it.
