He didn’t treat acting seriously because he knew it was people playing pretend and he was in it for the money, not the fame.
In real life he got a Native American Activist to accept his Oscar for him and make a speech abput Wounded Knee.

Disney has for gatekeeping media,
Disney hired real artists. Their artists did such amazing work that everyone copied Disney which caused the gatekeeping. Nothing stopped artist from not copying Disney to create their own works like Pixar before they were bought by Disney. AI art comes from training on existing art. So its not expanding culture to cut and paste existing art. It’s a great time saver for home users to create art that is out of their ability. But its not a substitute for real artists.
The cab company alternative was a taxi, which was a government granted monopoly known for having extortionate prices.
Which existed because to prevent congestion, accountability against criminal acts, and maintained an employee/employer relationship. Despite its drawbacks, employees have more rights than gig economy workers.
I guess what’s next is an app Airplane company that ignores all regulations and lands on parking lots because it will be cheaper than following the laws. So what if a few people die if tens of thousands save money and have more convenience.
Using a public ledger that can be tied directly to a person
Its far more easy to trace money in a bank account or made through a credit card than crypto. In most cases crypto is completely untraceable until turned into real money that’s deposited into a bank.


Their prices seem 2x what they were a few years ago. 2.5 years ago I bought two 16TB HGSTs from them for $170 each.


Yeah I’ve reinstalled Windows on Dells and it just works without any hassle because it reads something in the bios that says it already has a Windows license. I was wondering what it reads that would be configured in Proxmox to allow the same. I would be nice to be able to create a Windows VM on the fly without any license setup or license bypass tricks during/after install. Instead it would just work because Proxmox tells it to.
I don’t understand any of the references in this comic. It’s SpongeBob, Hank and Bobby but other than that I’m lost.
Why are SpongeBob and Hank at a convention? What’s that Stargate looking device behind Bobby?


It’s my belief that it is a human conceit that emotions are the pinnacle of defining humanity.
Emotions are in reality a simplified thought process. It’s why animals are capable of emotions. It’s an evolutionary survival mechanism that’s simpler and faster than rational thought.
That’s why it’s easy for an LLM to simulate emotions but can’t see why you need to drive 50m to the car wash.


You sandwiched your admission that the photo showed blue tarnish on silver between a claim that the photo didn’t show blue and the false claim that the OP specifically asked why blue in particular.
Your post started with “pictures of tungsten aren’t helpful”. This is proof you didn’t read the Wikipedia article where it shows a silver coin with tarnish.
The OP didn’t say blue. They said colorful. You brought up blue to deflect from you not reading the article that showed colorful silver tarnish.


Could you point me to more info about that?


That is a surprisingly not blue tarnish this photo provides no evidence



Right below the picture of tungsten is this picture of a silver dollar.



I don’t understand how it works? I saw a video where he took a bite of a banana before the forecast. How does that stop anyone from cutting and pasting one second of him biting the banana into the start of an ai video with a statement “banana” .


As another replier said, they use an HP cartridge. So this open printer will be ewaste in 5 years


I’m curious how they source the ink.
I recently watched a video about a 3D printer with color that is effectively obsolete because it used what was once common hp cartridges that hp discontinued.


You can control your emotions. It takes effort. For example if I’m in a bad mood I can step back and realize I’m actually hungry and that’s why I’m temporarily negative.


They are large and heavy. They are only useful for their virtually infinite life. If the military needed it for a few of their bases, they’d contract it out, a few hundred would be built and that’s it.
For example a few thousand ISDN adapters were built for the government military. But it lacked corporate support because the Telcos didn’t want it cutting into their profits. So ISDN barely existed for consumers. Consumers suffered with 56k modems for 5-10 years until broadband- which telcos sold for more than a phone line, were immune from all the competition requirements of regular phone lines, plus got TV programming profit.


NIckel Iron is fantastic without any revolutionary improvements. Batteries made 100 years ago still work today. They are large and heavy so are only of use for home power.
The big “down side” which is the reason it isn’t commercially developed at large scale is that they last forever. No investors are going to give billions to a business that can’t generate revenue forever with a product that needs replacing every 3 years.


Somebody setup and ran that AI agent. They must be held responsible before problems like this become common.
I’m guessing those tanks have been sealed from when you filled them?
Gas goes bad primarily from absorbing water from the air, oxidation, and evaporation. Since the tanks were kept closed, the gas will last for years.
Gas cans that are used frequently need stabilizer because every time you pour a little to fill a lawnmower, fresh air gets in to replace the volume poured out.
