Democracy is more of a sliding scale than a true or false. The US has had significant democratic decline during the last decade or two, and it was definitely not helped by Trump.

Slide far enough and well, that’s the end of democracy.

Yeah. Even the largest leagues and teams are basically impossible to follow on anything but Reddit and Twitter. For smaller teams? Nothing else exists…

100% the other way around for me. My phone is the one thing I own, I use the most. To have a more fluid experience is worth a couple of hundred dollars. The hourly price difference is minuscule.

“Save the planet” is too broad. Electric cars can help with global warming. But may be worse in other areas.

Thing is, global warming is by far and away the largest environmental threat today. So it’s likely very much beneficial to lessen the burden there, while other areas suffer.

But you’re very much right in that it won’t do shit as long as we’re producing electricity through fossil fuel among others. With that said, the same people pushing for electric cars are also pushing for green energy.

I can take your word for it, or I can consider the fact that basically every major company in the world does it. Somehow I don’t think it’s totally useless.

I doubt Joe Rogan and Barcelona has only caused grief. There’s a reason huge companies throw absurd amounts of money on advertising and right deals. It’s often lucrative and worth it.

As we don’t have the numbers we can only speculate in what return they got on those deals. But it was most definitely not 0.

Tour deals, merch and independent artists are great, but you do not reach critical mass when it comes to a general audience that way. It’s basically like trying to advertise on the Fediverse versus advertising on Reddit.

Altman went to Microsoft within 48 hours, does anything else really need to be said? Add to that, the fact that basically every news outlet has reported - with difference sources - that he was pushing in exactly in that way. There’s very little to support the fact that reality is different.

It’s rather interesting here that the board, consisting of a fairly strong scientific presence, and not so much a commercial one, is getting such hate.

People are quick to jump on for profit companies that do everything in their power to earn a buck. Well, here you have a company that fires their CEO for going too much in the direction of earning money.

Yet every one is all up in arms over it. We can’t have the cake and eat it folks.

Not nearly this bad. Go read the article. It’s much easier to spread crap nowadays, even though you could before.

There will always be loop holes, but then you fix those. And regardless, loop holes are not used by all, and they take time to find. So that’s no reason not to do it.

Yes working old cars are cheaper than piece of shit new ones. How terribly observant of you*

Nej det är en risk så klart. Men detta är bara en utredning, det lär ju visa sig vad för eventuella förändringar som kommer att bli relevanta. Då kommer vi med större säkerhet veta vad som sker.

Så utredning i sig behöver inte vara dåligt, sen kan förslaget mycket väl bli de. Återstår att se.

Alltså att minska andelen som misslyckas behöver inte innebära att man gör det lättare per se.

Det kan handla om att förtydliga aspekter många kuggar på, inte pga oförståelse utan otydlighet. Det kan handla om att vikta om områden som kanske är mindre viktiga än andra. Man kan tänka sig att utbildningen i sig kan läggas upp på annat sätt.

Det är inte svårt att göra prov där alla kuggar. Eller 50% för den delen. Finns inget självändamål i det i sig.

Var ju även något den tidigare regeringen försökte göra (står i artikeln).

I mean most top searches are AI generated bullshit nowadays anyway. Adding Reddit to a search is basically the only decent way to get a proper answer. But those answers are not much more reliable than ChatGPT. You have to use the same sort of skepticism and fact checking regardless.

Google has really gotten horrible over the years.

Dubbla priset mot Nestle, men det verkade som en rolig hemsida. Ska testas! Tack så mycket.

Intressant! Satt faktiskt och kikade lite på Gevalias. Men verkade vara hela bönor så då behöver jag en kvarn också. Blev inte mer sugen på det nu kanske. Bra och höra!

Nu gäller det endast gängkriminalitet, sägs det. Vilket jag i sig inte har några större problem med. Däremot så har det väl varit ganska påtagligt senaste tiden att det börjar där. Sedan trycker man fram gränserna och det börjar gälla alla istället.

Det är jag starkt emot, å då har man tyvärr inte så mycket annat val än att vara rätt starkt emot detta också.

Mycket trevligt! Får gärna utökas vad det lider.
