La stratégie de la gauche, qui consiste à se poser comme la voix de la raison en réaction à l’extrémisme des partis de droite (qui réussissent très bien à canaliser la colère des électeurs) est une stratégie perdante. Les électeurs frustrés veulent le changement et ne croient plus au statu quo. Tant que la gauche hésite à adopter des politiques plus fortes, elle sera associée au passé; mais en politique il faut faire rêver à l’avenir.

Yeah every store values client loyalty, but pretending companies (e.g. Walmart for crissakes) want to be loyal to their customers should disqualify you from being called an “industry analyst”.

I think the most interesting thing in this article is the fact that some concepts central to semantics (analogy, connotation) or psychology (bias) kind of emerge naturally in multi layered neural networks of sufficient size. Also that it can sound like different personalities (overconfident, secretive, delusional) if you manipulate the weight or the proximity of features. I’d like to see the same kind of study but for midjourney…

Accelerationism is like being on a plane and wishing it crashes when one of the engine fails.

What’s interesting about this device is that it (supposedly) learns how apps work and how people use them, so if you ask it something that requires using an app it could do it.

So while it might be “just an android app”, if it does what’s advertised that would be impressive.

Can’t say this enough. The only way to have some kind of power as a worker is to unionize.

Maybe it would be a good thing for the digital world to be free from the concept of ownership.

For edibles to kick in you have to say the magic formula, which is: “This shit don’t work”.

I agree with you that it’s a personal choice. I was replying to someone who seemed to imply that it wasn’t, and was suggesting that someone who eats meat can just stop doing it. I think that, for some people or some cultures, transitioning to a vegan diet isn’t that easy.

I’ve heard about that, but I feel a majority of meat eaters are quite tolerant with veganism and don’t see it a a threat to their masculinity. And I think I can say this threat isn’t even relevant in the case of women meat eaters. About the study you linked: it doesn’t really try to take an objective standpoint on the matter since its entire premise is the necessity to convince meat eaters to change their eating habits. Also is says itself (end of section 5) that the link between eating meat and masculinity wasn’t specifically targeted by the study. The authors do mention though that the link between masculinity and meat eating can be attributed to perceptions created by industry marketing. But in this article (as well as in my own personal experience) this link seems at best anecdotal.

How is it relevant to the question I’m asking?

It was an honest question, and you didn’t answer it.

Yeah but what about my cat? What about animals in the wild? How can we stop them from eating meat?

Meat eating is tightly connected to manliness.

That’s an interesting proposition. You have a source for that, or a theory of your own? Please share.

I didn’t block you from making the joke. That’s censorship.

I know, and that’s why I didn’t say it was actually censorship. Just really close.

So by that logic, we shouldn’t make any political jokes anymore? This is getting awfully close to censorship.

The downvotes only validate I’m right

I would like you to explain your reasoning on this.

The fact that it uses sarcasm and mentions CRT doesn’t automatically mean it’s right leaning. Left leaning people could find this meme funny.

I had my cpu fan die after a year, so maybe that. They replaced it really fast though.

It’s a Ryzen 7 Pangolin, I bought it almost 2 years ago.
