The Balfour declaration predates wwii. Israel has claimed they want a Jewish ethnostate from the beginning. Palestinians are a second class citizen subject to different laws in Israel.

Addiction is not the problem. It is a (poor) solution to a problem. Figure what your underlying problem is and address it first. Without doing that, you are only taking away one solution with no alternative. For me, I noticed I have no comp

You think illegal immigrants working for sub minimum wages is pushing housing prices up? Care to explain that line of logic? Cheap labor lowers cost of housing development too.

This is how to lie with statistics. Two things can be true without contradiction. Does a black gang member randomly killing an innocent white person cancel a white cop randomly killing an innocent black man?

I went from 970 to 3070 and it now draws less power on average. I can even lower the max power to 50% and not notice a difference for most games that I play.

Artists create because they have an innate drive to create and express something. They need enough pay to get by so they can keep creating. AI will eat into their pay but their drives will keep driving. Yes they would love to be paid more b

Plenty of mass media are just uninspired derivatives. It seems to entertain a lot of people. I see AI can take care of the mind numbing work of making uninspired bullshit so real creatives can be freed to pursue actual, meaningful art. Lots

Ask an endocrinologist. Robert Lustig has written extensively on the subject. This stuff has already been figured out. Here's one of his famous talks on sugar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmC4Rm5cpOI&pp=ygUNcm9i

plenty of studies on caffeine. Chocolate usually comes with loads of sugar unless you mean sugar alternatives? That wouldn't apply to just post war UK though. Also, it's hard to over consume non-sugar so that's not a lot of o

Try eating mostly honey and roots and see how much you can over consume. The problem in US is the variety of food and how engineered they are to be hyper palatable. Snacks are designed to pump sugar into the blood stream, with just enough s

They actually work with TSMC to develop the latest nodes. They also fund the bulk of the development. It's not as if without Apple's funds someone else will get the same leading edge node.

Do you mean the 12" MacBook? That was discontinued. Or do you mean the MacBook Air with Intel? Or the wedge shape MBA? Hard to define what makes a product a product when parts and design shift with each generation.

I think a lot of it is dealing with hunger. If you can't stand being a little hungry, never mind very hungry, no diet will really help. I used to love being very hungry, not sure how I got there, but I wish I can go back there again. H

>> Graphics functionality != display output Exactly. Graphics functionality also includes graphics specific hardware like vertex and fragment processing, which this does not have. It has no graphics specific hardware, ergo not a GPU.

It's the shader core of a GPU. There are no graphics specific pipelines, eg: vertex processing, culling, rasterizer, color buffer, depth buffer, etc. That's like saying a CPU is also a GPU if it runs graphics in software.
