Given how large it is, I don't think it's a high stat. Especially compared with other subcultures. And we don't blame feminism for every instance where a man is killed by a man hating woman.

As a user how do I opt out? Can I root my phone and excise this crap with some tool? If this is disseminated through Play Protect, does disabling Play Protect prevent triggering this?

China is super interested in spreading their influence using market means. They'd happily set up shop in Europe. And when the shop is set up in a foreign land the technology spreads naturally as US learned with China.

> They view the EU as a has-been that thinks it's a global power but lacks the technology or capability to become one Which is spot on. That's why Europe should do everything in their power to facilitate technology sharing.

Bats are kinda close though. Maybe it would require just a handfuls specific adjustments to nuclear DNA, at most. Worth a shot if it could give us for example 2x multiplier for a healthy lifespan. Even getting 10 year old mice would be very

Absolutely not. Strict pro-consumer regulations, tightly following technological advancements, balancing consumer choice with consumer safety, with complete disregard for any capitalistic interests.

It's not so much a mitochondrial transplant, as it is fertilized egg nucleus transplant. Not just mitochondria are used from the third donor but their whole egg (sans nucleus). So unless a human might develop from a bat egg just from s

Great. You astutely observed that your car, unlike an agent, in fact, does not learn, because you operate it, instead of teaching it, how to perform a skill, by demonstrating how it should be performed.

That can't be good. Life cycle of a human egg is organized around preserving mitochondria to be as young and fresh as possible across generations. Using adult cell, even a stem cell to make an egg probably gives it mitochondrial damage

It can't do a thing. You tell it how to do a thing. It now can do a thing. That's the definition of learning. Your centrifuge separates people who are not afraid to believe in what is reality, from the ones that do.

It's literally called in-context learning. The fact that it doesn't go into weights and is retained only for a session doesn't mean no learning occurs. Also agentic systems may choose or be instructed to retain some informati

Calculator is a great analogy for that kind of specialized models. Way better than humans (and other things) at a specific task. Can't replace humans with it. LLMs are not calculators.
