Huh, interesting. I haven’t see that yet. I guess it was just a matter of time.

Nah, the text makes sense and is not a garbled Zalgo mess.

The sky’s the limit. Just highlights what a fucking joke of a casino the stock market is.

Nothing for me here. But I am still always happy when someone posts their little tools and scripts, because I have discovered some neat stuff that way over the years.

I once spent two weeks vacation watching all of TNG and DS9. It is doable and I have fond memories of those two weeks.

It’s more about users being able to find them again. If they lose all domain names, it becomes difficult to figure out which are the new ones.

lol no

I know, it’s hard to bring nuance to this. The current copyright system is completely fucked. I think we still need some sort of copyright, but one that expires after like 10 years after first publication. I would actually be fine with everything being used to train AI models, if AI wouldn’t require ungodly amounts of resources and the companies wouldn’t be owned by tech bro assholes. If it would belong to us all, be free to use and not burn down our world even quicker, AI would be fine.

Fuuuck copyright.

Yeah, exactly my thoughts. This article is so one-sided and negative, it reads like it was written by Disney. Disney is not even mentioned in an article about a media company gaining too much power, that’s laughable.

Kim Schmitz has always been a grifter and an asshole. I wish him all the worst.

I don’t think you understand how evolution works. There is no evolutional pressure on humans to run long distances, jump far or high. And even if there suddenly were, it would take generations for noticeable changes. It’s much more likely that some parents let their kids be CRISPRd to create more red blood cells which would grant them an endurance boost or other such changes. That will probably happen in our lifetime.

Besides, your ostrich example is not helpful. A snow albatross is as tall as a small human and also has two. Maybe we will grow wings and fly!

We do know what human bodies are physically capable of. You can literally calculate that. With genetic outliers you can push this slightly, but not by a huge margin. There is a reason why so many records are still standing after 30-40 years. For a marathon, 2 hours is about the limit of human bodies. We reached that in 2023. Maybe someone can eke out a minute or two more, but without genetic manipulation or doping that’s it. The world records for long jump were set in 1988 for women and 1991 for men. The record for high jump was set in 1993. For these sports we have reached what human bodies are capable of. If they are ever broken, it will be by a few centimeters. No human will suddenly jump 10 meters.

The new crew will fully support the Goa’uld.

We are very close to the limit of what human bodies can do without cheating. Genetic outliers who can slightly push these limits might exist, but they won’t suddenly jump 10m, rather narrowly crack the 30 year old record of 8.95m, for example. And someone might run a clean 2 hour marathon, but there won’t be anyone running it in 90 minutes. Until we do genetic manipulation or allow doping, the old records will stand or will only increase marginally.

Motherfucker.

What’s a boomer shooter?

I mean, nobody is forcing anyone to see any of this. I haven’t even seen the movie. I might. I might not. It’s up to me.

With modern LED lights I read that it might be better to just keep them on because heat cycling reduces their lifespan, forcing you to replace them and thus costing more money than the electricity would cost.
