This is so sad. Despite all of our efforts to reduce the population—we’re still eating ourselves alive.

Does trading with a satellite state count as trading?

The problem with some solutions is they cause more problems than they solve.

Seaweed was one of those solutions we we forced to look at in Environmental Science 301.

It’s not that seaweed is bad it’s that on a large scale it starts to cause more issues than It solves. Always aim to do less harm than more :)

I mean, dredging for seaweed can cause the PH of the ocean to change and that can be worse.

This is why we need to switch to a different food source or have global rations of the food supply.

I mean, Batman is a gendered word. Perhaps you mean Bat Person.

As Batwoman is the superior moral character in the series. I mean, Batman went to Jail for just reason in the Harley Quinn Cartoon.

As people have said, it’s most likely in the few 100k range. We are getting close enough to gene editing that it may be less. We’re also getting close to ova fusion so we could theoretically get rid of the Y chromosomes as well soon—and create something like a Utopia free of toxic masculinity or needless violence, suffering, crime, etc…

I mean, we can’t allow right wing terrorists to come here and stay.

He shouldn’t be given a visa—he should be charged with capital punishment just like Trump, De Santos, Cruz, Ben Shapiro, Dennis Prager, and other right wing terrorists.

I mean… the west was perfectly fine with Serbia trying to take over Croatia in the 90s (in case you weren’t alive then) Just saying.

But in all realities when Russia finally does use Nukes because of what the West is doing (Ukraine wants to bomb Moscow and has advocated for a Nuclear strike on Moscow). They have also tried to escalate things by bombing Poland.

I love how some Americans are ignorant of the Cold War and just after. Let alone Ukraine and how they sided in WW2 and never seemed to change course after the Cold War.

I’m not saying they shouldn’t has some rights… but they didn’t want to join NATO decades ago. Now they want to start Nuclear War. I don’t know if I’m okay with sending plenty of weapons to a power that is actively advocating for Nuclear strikes on another country and were before the invasion.

Sadly the patriarchy doesn’t recognize the violence they commit as violence.

Because they don’t invoke violence against women or minorities by becoming PM.

I’m also sure they’re just overall better people for the job because they didn’t get their original position due to male or colonizer privilege.

There is no reason any of these members should have been overlooked in the position of PM. They are far more qualified than who was chosen.

If there isn’t then having the position be vacant until said person is found is the only correct choice. No person is better than the wrong person.

As I’ve said. You can’t have one without the other. If you’re choosing to elect a straight white male to replace a strong independent woman for PM then you have to ask if you’re perpetuating violence against women and minorities because you feel you have the “right” person.

I think that if you don’t consider diversity then you’re not choosing the right person.

I just think this is awful. NZ deserves a more diverse candidate. Having him feels like NZ is being set back 80 years.

So Weather Underground?

Ukraine: Modi will save us…

Didn’t Queen sing it best?

“Who wants to live forever?”

But on a real note, memory storage isn’t forever. We may think of it as forever. But tapes stored under ideal conditions only last 20 or so years without degradation.

The same goes for many of the things we would think of as possible routes towards eternal life. They all decay relatively quickly (200-500) years of max viability under ideal conditions.

You up the conditions and the time table quickly degrades.

I mean you can’t really reduce the current population through Euthanasia, women’s and LGBTQ rights… but you decrease the following generations significantly.

It’s sad. We are overpopulated, undereducated, and harming other species.

If we don’t reduce the population significantly then we won’t have a population at all.

Despite the cringe form my community (coders)… it may actually keep or maintain coding jobs.

It sounds counter intuitive but AI isn’t great at unsupervised ML. I know that plenty of people would disagree… but it’s really true.

Moreover, let’s say an AI designs a more efficient rail system (ChatGPT says it can’t create new things well as is the case with most AI hence the bad at Unsupervised ML) there would still be people needed to build the infrastructure of the rail system.

The jobs that AI will directly create will most likely be in the tech sector or by people specifically educated to use it in the best way. (supervise/build/maintain repositories)
