People are mostly water, no? Makes perfect sense then.

To be fair, it was 4 coat hangers. The Monster cable was therefore outnumbered.

True, but this then applies to all apps. And for some bizarre reason if GenericName is not available the fallback is Comment, so tons of apps turn into a long string of text that gets cut off.

Like, look at this:

Top row is perfect, but then you get to Steam...

Could well be European. EU Windows installs are significantly less bloaty than shit than US installs are.

The transatlantic slave trade, horrible as it was, took hundreds of years to make its victims, and was not a campaign of targeted extermination. There was little to no care for the slaves' lives, but their murder wasn't the goal.

The Holocaust only lasted from 41 to 45. 6 million jews were murdered in a span of only 4 years. In a period of just 100 days 1,47 million jews were systematically targeted and exterminated. That's nearly double the rate of the Rwandan genocide. It's the same amount of people who died on board of the slave ships spanning from the 16th to the 19th century. No genocide in history has a higher death rate than that. 90+% of Polish jews were murdered, a near total extinction.

That's what people refer to when they talk about the largest industrial genocide. No other genocide in our history has come close. The numbers do not lie, and calling the memory of the Holocaust "zionist propaganda" is pretty sickening. It's not just zionists that claim this you know, reputable historians around the world do.

Breath of the Wild is 8 years old at this point. Asking $70 for that is pretty egregious in my opinion. Maybe for TotK that'd be more acceptable but for BotW I think it's a very steep price. Especially given that it's common that rereleases usually include dlcs by default.

I'd expected $60 for the full package, not $90, given that the amount of development work was likely pretty low (the game was finished years ago after all). So 50% higher than expected.

The SM64+Sunshine+Galaxy bundle game was $30, for comparison. That's three full games that they needed to put in effort for to run on the Switch.

Colombia maintained well before Trump decided to do deportations that the US could send people back, humanely. Trump tried to do it inhumanely, so Colombia refused the planes and immediately dispatched the presidential aircraft to pick up deportees in a humane manner.

Trump threw a hissyfit, threatened tarriffs, Colombia reiterated that all the US needs to do is feed the deportees and not transport them cuffed in military aircraft (same thing Brazil is complaining about), and Trump relented. It's the only explanation that fits the full timeline here.

It's a total political humiliation for Trump in a sane world, but here we are. He just bullshits his way through.

It really is a cesspool, they're tripling down now stating immigrants are eating pets, kidnapping kids in pedophile rings and then cannibalizing their victims. Total nutcase stuff.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a response from OpenAI, it could well be some bot platform that serves this API response.

I'm pretty sure someone somewhere has created a product that allows you to generate bot responses from a variety of LLM sources. And if whatever is interacting with it is simply reading the response body and stripping out what it expects to be there to leave only the message, I could easily see a fairly bad programmer create something that outputs something like this.

It's certainly possible this is just a troll account, but it could also just be shit software.

Lovecraft's racism is very much a product of fear, not racial superiority. Dude was extraordinarily terrified of everything remotely foreign. It's why "strange creatures that are vaguely human but completely incomprehensible" is the generic terror in his stories.

In that sense, I find the motivations for his racism far less terrible than the motivations a racial supremacist has.

It's utter nonsense. R&D on treatment is generally a safer investment than a full cure that may not pan out at all.

But think of it like this: the first company that does cure cancer will easily out-compete other pharmaceutical companies. That's why we do in fact have cures for a variety of cancer types.

And it's not like people will stop getting cancer once a cure is found. You can keep selling the cure you can patent! That would push any other pharma company that only focuses on treatment out of the market immediately.

Don’t create a social media hype of something before discussing it with Plasma devs. That’s obviously going to antagonise people, and puts us in an awkward situation afterwards.

Looks like this "vote" is not really official and blindsided the devs a bit.
