You forgot the first step of turning off your smoke alarm, and also leaving the room unless your a pack a day smoker with lungs of steel

WWII was the war to end all wars, so we couldn’t have a department of war anymore. Still “needed” and army , navy, marines and all the weapons for them though so we created the department of defense.

That’s what you get for trying to recognize a nation that were trying to genocide.

I think I know what happened here. Curtis decided to sing “fucking problem” by A$AP rocky at karaoke because he can say

I’m the n*gga, the n*gga n*gga …

Like an edgy 15 year old. Then he heard A$AP rockies bar:

they say money make a n*gga act n*ggerish, at least a n*gga n*gga rich

Got mad at A$AP flexing on racist haters like him and then posted this.

N*gga rich is a term used by racists, and co-opted by rappers, to mean getting a small fortune and spending it on flashy ostentatious things.

Fair enough, the figure you’re looking for / what I based on the Bangladesh claim is here, 39 billion tonnes total so even less, 0.28% reduction. But that is for only 10% reduction in one country. Increase that to 20% and do it for all countries and your probably getting a couple percent reduction. Again not going to stop climate change or give us another decade before 1.5c, which we’ve already passed in 2025.

Were going to need every percent we can get though and any sort of reduction helps. If we’re going to have a carbon neutral future it’s going to require these sacrifices, and the earlier we make them the better. Delaying them is only hurting the cause for some temporary comfort.

It would make a meaningful impact, if everyone in America just drove 10% less that would result in a reduction of 110 million metric tons of co2, close to the total emissions of Bangladesh 122 million tons ( population around half the US). The same is true about meat consumption, which is even more feasible to completely stop today for most people.

Sure those two things aren’t going to stop climate change, systemic change is needed. But the methods for everyday people to create that systemic change are either illegal ( blocking ports, destroying oil infrastructure), and thus most people aren’t going to risk there livelihoods for, or they’re ineffectual (peaceful protest, electoral politics) so doing the above choices would make more of a difference.

Yes attention and effort are finite resources, but the choice for most people is not block a port or become vegetarian, it’s gonna be go to a peaceful protest / vote for the dems or become a vegetarian. In that choice, becoming a vegetarian is the better use of effort.

It’s not a con, people can and should still make choices and sacrifices to stop climate change while recognizing that the real problem is corporate greed.

You can recognize that litter is caused by corporations use of single use plastics for everything, while at the same time recognizing that it’s your responsibility to at least dispose of them properly instead of throwing it on the street.

Considering the past couple elections she’s probably as left as we’re gonna get here in California, barring a charismatic young mamdani like figure coming out of nowhere.

Just gonna give myself a little bit of cancer stan

It’s the most luke warm response to starving children from the most luke warm leader of a major country

I agree for normal, everyday people. But for the politicians and members of the media that enabled and in some cases cheered on this genocide , FUCK THEM. We can’t allow them to launder there reputation with an “oops guess i was wrong” statement and let them keep running this country. If we don’t hold them and there terrible decision making accountable then they’ll just get us into another atrocity in a couple years, just like Iraq.

It does look like a clone, but fuck IP law. Sony winning this will only hurt games because any publisher with a genre creating / defining game could gatekeep any competitors from coming in *cough Nintendo.

The original horizon came out 8 years ago, that’s plenty of time for them to cash in on the monopoly they get for all the creativity that went into creating the genre / style.

Its not like they’re marketing it with a similar name or main character or any other identifier that could trick someone into buying it instead either.

Ah, I was hoping this meant chatgpt would give canned responses, ie. “Seek help”, whenever it detected it was being used for mental health issues, which it should. But no it’s just open air flipping off anyone who asks why there chatbot pushed a person to suicide.

Human here, and didn’t know what the post was about. Had the same thought process as the ai and couldn’t understand the gotcha.

How do you go on a multi day ecstasy binge? I thought you gained tolerance pretty quickly like acid.

Self proclaimed “5 star man” Dennis Reynolds is the top suspect

I don’t hate guns, I hate the “gun rights” movements and there fetishization of a skewed interpretation of the second amendment where any individual has the unalieanable right to own a gun.

Even if a violent revolution were to happen, which odds are 99 to 1 it wont happen in the US in our lifetimes, then people like op hoarding guns aren’t going to help. A well regulated militia might but that requires social organization and discipline, which most people in the gun rights movement don’t have the time or willingness for.

They aren’t serious about using guns to defend liberty, they just like the aesthetic of it and make it part of there personality. So much so that they get offended by dumb and probably made up stories like this but not the countless other similar stories where there were no red flag laws and the gf gets killed.

This is the horror story for red flag laws existing.

Now imagine the horror stories of red flag laws not existing.

You don’t even have to imagine, just listen to one of the million true crime podcasts. Then multiply all those cases by 5 for all the minority women who they don’t talk about.

This study isn’t about total clicks, or a drop in traffic to Google caused by people not liking the ai overview. It’s about for each Google search that was executed, how often did someone click on a link. Without ai it was 15% and with ai it is 8%. So if anything its proving the customers like the ai overviews and believe they are getting enough from them to answer their query.

Sure there are probably a couple people who see the overview at the top and hate ai so much they leave Google without clicking anything, but those people will probably only do that once or twice before they stop using Google entirely or disable the feature, and thus wouldn’t count much in the data about ai overview searches.
