  • Republicans when Kamala comes out smiling in a tan suit

    Jump

  • I can never understand the kind of slime that finds it in them to not just begrudge someone for how they express their own joy and laughter, but to feel confident in voicing that begrudgement like it's indicative of anything but their own complete defectiveness as a morally sound human being.

  • Politically ambiguous former country singer, has to respond in some way right?

    Jump

  • And also she's a complete dyed in the wool liberal to the extent of actively encouraging her fans to vote for liberal and progressive candidates and to register to vote if they haven't yet.

    There was actually a big hullabaloo on the right about it because she stomped all over their fantasies of her as a "white goddess" country star with how far she swung the other direction.

    Basically Miley Cyrus but without the post disney kid crazy phase.

  • "High Occupancy?" (by Mike Peters)

    Jump

  • I like how she admitted she didn't think of the political ramifications and was just working the exploit she'd been given XD

  • Gypsy Vanner

    Jump

  • IIRC it's because it was a breed originally cultivated by the Roma.

    I think there's a push among some folks to get a name change on the books, not even to a name based on Roma, it was something else entirely I think related to the moustache

  • Washington State Solar Project Paused Amid Concern About Native Cultural Sites

    Jump

  • Jesus fucking christ how hard is it to find a site to build on that isn't some sacred site to the local indigenous folks‽

    There is a literal third of a continent of land out there, just filter land with religious significance before you enter the planning phase!

  • AI’s Impact on Black Americans

    Jump

  • I've been saying for a while now that the singularity isn't going to be based in an AGI, ot will be minimizing quantum computing not just to a commercial scale, but to an implantable scale, and creating a neural "third hemisphere" implant which allows the user to basically have all the capabilities that human thought excels at over machines calculation, as well as all the capabilities of the reverse.

    If we hit that point before inequality is addressed, it will lead to the classes literally becoming different species from each other, an overlord owning class that has financial access to such expanded mental capacity, and the peasant working classes that are financially shut out of the expanded career potential the implants would provide.

    Not to mention the terroristic horror that could come from the implant not being solidly air gapped from the internet. Might be cool to perfectly calculate an optimal frisby toss, but it'll be less cool if someone changed the trajectory you're aiming along to turn the thing into a murder weapon by hitting a rando at just the right angle.

  • TIL about biricodar dicitrate, a purported treatment against ovarian cancer with the unfortunate brand name "Incel". It never reached the market.

    Jump

  • Wasn't Incel originally coined by a blogger in the 80s?

  • it stinks

    Jump

  • Yeah calling programs that don't actually demonstrate intelligence AI is probably one of the most public confusing things the tech bros have done.

    It's not Skynet or HAL or AM, it's a very very fancy copy paste protocol, and the owning class is using it to crush independent markets.

  • Top Ukrainian commander says his forces now control 1,000 square kilometers of Russia's Kursk region

  • Inb4 Annexation of Pink and Yellow Ukraine

  • Top Ukrainian commander says his forces now control 1,000 square kilometers of Russia's Kursk region

    Jump

  • Ohhhhh nobody's grabbing that.

    Even if the land was worth the effort, having to integrate the massively Russian population is distinctly not

  • NSFW

    It is important to subvert player expectations.

    Jump

  • Equally kinky over it though

  • Top Ukrainian commander says his forces now control 1,000 square kilometers of Russia's Kursk region

    Jump

  • So...are they aiming to negotiate land swaps?

  • let's spell it together, kids, w-a-g-e t-h-e-f-t

    Jump

  • Folks coming in here "ðÆt'S nOt WeIdJ þeFt ĐæT's KæPiTeLiZm!" running face first into the point and still missing it.

    Also, don't forget spending more fighting unionization than the higher wages and better working standards would cost because it's not even about profits to these parasites, it's about spite and getting to lord over people with nowhere else to go on short notice.

  • Barcelona is banning Airbnbs. Other European cities have cracked down already — with some success.

    Jump

  • Better route is to limit it so that rentals to non hotel licensed entities can not offer any time less than a month, or a year in neighborhoods where a minimum of 10% of the units are owned by landlords

  • Running it as a swarm of Tarrasques summoned by the Dark Priest Mathias of Mecier

  • What if?

    Jump

  • Not even the wackiest scenario he's done.

    Bro legit took this one incredibly seriously and talked about the consequences of having to explain sudden freak accident deaths to pre-schoolers and how conspiracy theories would proliferate about Reagan being responsible because supposedly he had pushed for the launch to stay on schedule even when issues came up because the plan was for him to make s phone call to the crew of the ship from the SotU address that year.

    Basically Reagan would go down in pop culture canon as being the man who murdered big bird, and whatever consequences that sprung from that would be the biggest shift vs present timeline instead of the obvious fact that big bird would be canonically dead since all the normal viewers would have seen him go up in a fireball and die.

  • Bird law is not governed by reason

  • Are pigeons native to India? I only think of them hanging around cities on the atlantic side of things.

  • perspective

    Jump

  • It would take multiple galaxies of matter to pull the material together, but if you're planning on building a megastructure of this scale that's probably not any trouble for you

  • TIL the Aztecs regarded childbirth as a form of battle. Women who died during childbirth were thought to rise to one of the highest heavens - the same one as for male warriors who died in battle.

    Jump

  • Similar thing actually happened in early Islaam, except it was for deaths from epidemic instead of childbirth. That one being because a shitton of Mohammed's original faithful had died of plague during the initial campaigns of the faith.
