The K strategy theory looks reasonable, but I don't see how evolution could develop a population-control mechanism like the parent comment postulated. If you start with an overly-dense population that's half straight and half gay,

I used to think that the darker the object, the more light it was turning into heat. Is that idea just plain wrong or is there some correlation? Are dark objects dark just because the light they emit are in an invisible frequency range?

That example sounds wrong. My understanding is that the black ball will heat up more quickly because it's converting a wider range of light frequencies into heat. The color isn't affecting heat conductivity and thus shouldn't

It's not AI that's going to change that, it's mass surveillance and ubiquitous proprietary software. AI may contribute to it, but it's the fact that we've given away control over our life and our society that's

It's running on Linux servers and using Linux tech like Vulkan though. Getting a game to run well on Stadia will probably involve a lot of the same steps that are needed to make them run well on Linux natively.
