I have two cats: they wait while watching me and then slightly ‘fight’ to go in the clean litter box first.

Yep, that’s exactly it. I’m assuming this is software dev in a nutspell.

I respectfully disagree with you saying ai generated images are not art, it is “a form” of art, and saying so doesn’t equate to saying art is unimportant or that the human aspect doesn’t matter. Art is important, the human aspect does matter a great deal. Art is about ideas and means to express them, AI-gen does allow it in different ways than previously but right now you still have a sentient being with an idea to prompt the AI.

What you are saying looks a lot like what people used to say about photography not being art, and fear mongering about photography replacing other forms of art like painting. The opposite happened, photography shaped into its own form of art, and painting evolved to new era of amazing ideas.

I thought all thorium based reactor were still at the research stage. I made a quick search to see if there was any in actual use but couldn’t find a source. If you have one please send it I’m really interested.

If they are still at the research stage then I’ll wait until one is built at scale to decide whether they are a better alternative.

Where are the thorium reactor ? We currently have none. Are we allowed to throw speculative energy source in the debate ?

“To the moon”, it will take you 4h to finish and the story is awesome, it’s worth playing in a single playthrough. I wish I could forget and play it again.

Must have something to do with the fact that icosahedron is dodecahedron’s dual

Try being in their shoes: you set up an experiment to prove the earth is not flat and is indeed round, you run the experiment and at the end you realise your experiment fail and would prove the earth is flat. Would you changwe your point of view ? I know I wouldn’t, I would immediately assume I am an idiot and messed up the experiment, because I am so much convinced it is round, it would be much more realistic to assume I messed up.

Thank you for the kind message. We are looking into these alternative options, they come with their own set of laws and stuff, we don’t really know yet what we can do.

I’m currently living through my most stessful week of my life: About a year and a half ago, I bought a plot of land with the project of building a home there, inflation and loan rate kicked in, so I thought “alright let’s wait a bit see when it stabilizes”, this week I learned my plot is planned to be removed from the “buildable” area. If I don’t put a building permit to the city council before this is voted my land will basically see it’s value divided by 20 and I won’t be able to build a house there, I put 6 years of savings into this project… all because my gov decided that they didn’t want this area to be urbanised anymore.

I have trouble sleeping and working I can’t think of anything else, I also lost my appetite.

They host and serve the data which cost a lot of money, they are not charging for it they are asking for patronage for those who want to. vip doesn’t get you much apart from the feeling of participating (I’m vip). It’s not different from lemmy, instance hoster ask for patronage to cover the costs, even though the data is produced by users.

Why did you assume “christian theology” ? I can think of many religion that fit the description

Indeed, I was so focused on the algebraic side I didn’t even think about it :-D

I was computing 6*4+1=25

Brilliant, now I wonder what ages this works for, I figured only 1 and 2, but then I realised we could write the father’s age in other bases…

1 = 2^0 (20 b10)

2 = 2^1 (21 b10)

3 = 3^1 (31 b7 = 22)

6 = 6^1 (61 b4 = 25) if they are lucky the grand father will be 61 that year :-D

8 = 2^3 (23 b12 =27)

9 = 9^1 (91 b3 = 28)

14 = 14^1 (141 b4 = 33)

I hate this word, “ecovandalism” would be more appropriate, since they are not killing anyone, just destroying stuff.

If you’re shocked at what it does to their lungs, wait until you see what it does to their nuts.

I’ve never seen this were have you read that ?
