  • He didn't treat acting seriously because he knew it was people playing pretend and he was in it for the money, not the fame.

    In real life he got a Native American Activist to accept his Oscar for him and make a speech abput Wounded Knee.

  • Disney has for gatekeeping media,

    Disney hired real artists. Their artists did such amazing work that everyone copied Disney which caused the gatekeeping. Nothing stopped artist from not copying Disney to create their own works like Pixar before they were bought by Disney. AI art comes from training on existing art. So its not expanding culture to cut and paste existing art. It's a great time saver for home users to create art that is out of their ability. But its not a substitute for real artists.

    The cab company alternative was a taxi, which was a government granted monopoly known for having extortionate prices.

    Which existed because to prevent congestion, accountability against criminal acts, and maintained an employee/employer relationship. Despite its drawbacks, employees have more rights than gig economy workers.

    I guess what's next is an app Airplane company that ignores all regulations and lands on parking lots because it will be cheaper than following the laws. So what if a few people die if tens of thousands save money and have more convenience.

    Using a public ledger that can be tied directly to a person

    Its far more easy to trace money in a bank account or made through a credit card than crypto. In most cases crypto is completely untraceable until turned into real money that's deposited into a bank.

  • Yeah I've reinstalled Windows on Dells and it just works without any hassle because it reads something in the bios that says it already has a Windows license. I was wondering what it reads that would be configured in Proxmox to allow the same. I would be nice to be able to create a Windows VM on the fly without any license setup or license bypass tricks during/after install. Instead it would just work because Proxmox tells it to.

  • I don't understand any of the references in this comic. It's SpongeBob, Hank and Bobby but other than that I'm lost.

    Why are SpongeBob and Hank at a convention? What's that Stargate looking device behind Bobby?

  • It's my belief that it is a human conceit that emotions are the pinnacle of defining humanity.

    Emotions are in reality a simplified thought process. It's why animals are capable of emotions. It's an evolutionary survival mechanism that's simpler and faster than rational thought.

    That's why it's easy for an LLM to simulate emotions but can't see why you need to drive 50m to the car wash.

  • What's that discolouration on the silver spoon?

    Jump

  • You sandwiched your admission that the photo showed blue tarnish on silver between a claim that the photo didn't show blue and the false claim that the OP specifically asked why blue in particular.

    Your post started with "pictures of tungsten aren't helpful". This is proof you didn't read the Wikipedia article where it shows a silver coin with tarnish.

    The OP didn't say blue. They said colorful. You brought up blue to deflect from you not reading the article that showed colorful silver tarnish.

  • Question: Humidity controlled cabinet

  • Re: flow through

    A mesh like container so all sides are exposed to air. Many 3d printed designs have channels so air can get into the middle of the desiccant container.

  • I suspect that's what he already has. I can't imagine a compressor based dehumidifier that's so tiny.

  • Question: Humidity controlled cabinet

    Jump

  • Are you sure it's 35% ? I've found those cheap digital hygrometers to be off by 10-15%.

    I bought a box and some say 10 and some say 20. I ended up buying several different brands and price ranges of hygrometers to try and figure out which ones were correct.

    I use cereal boxes with desiccant and without any active dehumidifier they stay at ~25% despite being frequently opened and closed. So like others suggested, put a large flow-through bin of desiccant in and forget about it.

    Also is that a compressor dehumidifier? I suspect it's a desiccant wheel because it's so tiny.

  • A woman's right to birth control isn't forcing anyone.

    There are many things that are necessary but that doesn't mean forcing people.

  • Switzerland to vote on far-right proposal to cap population at 10 million

    Jump

  • So when I say that a declining population isn't a disaster I'm promoting genocide, but when you take the opposite position it's not forced birth for women?

    Stop being a hypocrite. I didn't claim genocide just like you didn't claim rape.

  • Holy misconstrued reading, Batman!

    How about I flip your argument like you did to me:

    Are you proposing forced rape to impregnate women? That's what "population decline disaster" people end up wanting.

  • Switzerland to vote on far-right proposal to cap population at 10 million

    Jump

  • None! I didn't even hint at a forced population reduction.

    In the developed world, fewer people are having children and those that do are having smaller families. That means instead of a worker supporting both his parents and children they only need to support their parents. When the parent dies there is now more land and resources so things like real estate gets cheaper. Fewer workers means each worker is more valuable and can demand more pay from the ownership class.

    I have no fucking idea how stating this gets construed into meaning genocide.

    (supporting doesn't necessarily mean direct support but through their job that helps everyone in society and taxes that go to schools and healthcare.)
