I find it fascinating that so much of astronomy is having data and trying to make educated guesses about what that data could maybe indicate. It shows just how much more there is to find out, realy.

Aside from global warming

I get what you are saying. But that improvement has been possible only because of global warming. Today we have more energy (=workforce) at our hands than ever before. This has imported things, but it's living on bored time Global warming will start to deteriate our world in multiple ways, I fact it is doing so right now.

A collapse of this system build on sand is a very real possibility. And it is a very real possibility that it will take less than a generation to happen.

Yeah, but try saying something slightly to nuanced about the Israel - Palestine situation almost anywhere here and you get nuked.

Masnick gives 20 levels of development. Elon stopped here:

Level Two: “We’re the free speech platform! But no CSAM!”

And that's about it. Ex-Twitter has copyright infringement, hate speech and doesn't give a fuck about local laws unless the law actually has teeth (Brasil, anybody?).

It's such a shame. Children have so much curiosity for the world.

Adults should realy nourish that, not kill it.

I've worked with children in that age range (6 and older) and it's realy crazy what they come up if you give them a bit of room to experiment with their ideas.

Einfach weil es grad gut hier rein passt, ich finde diese Website ganz cool, um ein Gefühl zu bekommen wo man verdienstmäig steht. Bei mir war es lange Zeit ziemlich genau in der Mitte, als 50 % mehr und 50 % weniger. Jetzt haben wir 2 Kinder bekommen und schwubs ist es nur noch unteres Drittel.

Einsicht ist der erste Schritt zur Besserung und so.

I agree completely.

It comes down to wanting the best for yourself and only for yourself. There can't be any other motivation for destroying a whole planet in order to get a live with vastly more money than you could ever spend.

I do this for all my character as a dm and I think it is gear to add that visual layer for player who like it.

Before it would be image search and take what a er is closest to the character. I think wonky Ai pictures, despite all their downfall, are a real improvement in this usecase .

Good point. If the wizard did this you also would never know that such a song existed. Hence your "worst song in the world" spot would be filled with a different song the instant the spell hits.

It shows how such categories as "the worst" and "the best" are only constructions of our mind.

Just that they are actively recruiting people from STEM.

Not only that, we have a couple of social science people around too :-)

I could tell you the facts, like how stopping eating meat is one of the easiest ways to make a huge change. I could give you some studies, show you how almost every report on climate change in the last 15 years has listet going more plant based is part of their recommendations. But you know what? I'm just fucking over with people that aren't grown up enoth to even do the slightest little change in their lives.

We deserve the future that awaits us.
