Compared to what? Consider that computers, cell phone replace paper, books, car transit, movies, etc. Solar panel replace coal, oil, etc. Not perfect but 100X better than before, only getting better each year. In 20, 30 year will be in such

I hate this. Always more and more control from our government that know what is good for us! I can’t stand this government and hope people wake up and switch at next elections.

(also french Canadian) I think at this point we should accept that the french language will die out. We are a tiny minority in a sea of english speaking, it doesn’t make sense anymore in the age of internet. It has a huge cost for business

It’s the same in most blockbuster movie. Look at the latest Star Wars for example. They actively destroyed the male heros from previous movies and replaced them with perfect (without flaws) feminine. The writers didn’t hide it, it was their

Our culture is trying to destroy the masculine as fast as it can. Tate and the rise of Islam is a reaction to it. You can look at all the Disney movies for kids: all men are stupid, liars, stealer, and when you hit them it’s funny. On the o

This. In some place it’s the natural order to have forest fire from time to time. If we prevent them long enough a huge one will happen at the worst time (dry, windy with lots of material to burn. At this point there very little you can do.

It’s a joke, but is it a functional one? I found it crazy to run auto-GPT with an external DB over the internet, how can this be ever fast and efficient? (unless the dataset is humongous)

What do you think of having to go to war and get killed, going down in a shipwreck saving women and kids, etc. The lives of men were brutal back then. If I look at history that is a bit closer, grandfather and great grandfather those were t

Another example of the peril of central planning and total authority. Make me think of the climate change orthodoxy were we focus solely on co2 and forget about all the other human problems.

It’s the new atheist religion: - human are bad, there are too many, we are a cancer on the pristine planet, it would better if we disappear (original sin) I think: - We live in the most abundant and easy time ever in the history of mankind.
