Wrote a little 300 word essay on this, and I was prepared to add the comment until i realized it does not really matter. The situaton(or at least my opinion/response) can be explained in a simple phrase: Good, 10-20 years of failed pol

Sure they do. Let the modern experts tell us the proper diet we've been apparently doing wrong for tens if not hundreds of thousands of years. A little note: pretty sure all of those were not only rolled back but found that 'moder

Kaku's last book I've read and enjoyed was The Future of the Mind. However for the last ~5-7 years he often assumed what I call a toxic position in science: anything that's not canonical or "peer-approved" must be w

Plenty of other countries, especially western european ones, have since ~2015 introduced legislation (which later was either not/rarely enforced or walked back upon, though not removed) in which a person is presumed guilty until proven

Weird way to say people can't afford animal-based products because of inflation and straight out stupid (current & upcoming) EU regulations, but yeah it's definitely 'the vegan trend', lmao.

I think it's a pretty clear-cut view forward from the turkish position: deny Sweden's ascension to NATO unless they give up all PKK members, which should be feasible since they (only) recently declared it to be the terrorist organ

Your argument would be valid if catholicism or christianity in general would either grow or remain the same througout the western masses, which is not true. The only places in the world where christianity is growing is asia (most noticeabl

This thread almost has all the good resources out there, however a good book I haven't seen mentioned is "Hands-on Booting" [ISBN-10: 1484258894]. It does not go into deep technicalities but if you want a good overall picture

SumatraPDF is great, only wish it had 2 more things: Dark mode(or 'invert' mode, really) and a working Linux binary (I know about wine, still...).

No, and regulations are some kind of a problem because they give people the false sense of security. People should not use things they don't trust. Yes proving something is false(/does not happen) is hard, but that's one more

There's a little dichotomy here. If you try to control the population as a whole "head-on" you'd get decent backlash, especially in countries where such moves have been rejected.[Anecdotally i can speak only for EE] Howe

"You will own nothing and you will be happy." The reality will actually be worse than that, because happiness won't come if games/shows/media/any product or service/ will be sh*t.

I really hope AMD cleans up and invests some money into their software stack. Granted it's really hard to catch up to Nvidia, but I think it's doable in ~5 years. The barrier to entry into rocm compared to cuda is pretty high, and

UK legislators are really something out of this world. In October I will have 10Gbps for 2 years, I can't even remember when I got 1gbps. The reason you get such services (and in my case for dirt cheap) is because of competition, not b

The comeback has been happening for at least a decade, depending on the region you might aswell say 2 or even 3. Sadly enough only alarmist messages hit the news these days, which really should be the headline here.
