Would you say that someone “thinking cats are cute and liking them” is just a fetish?
There’s more dimensions of liking something and wanting to engage with it than just sexual

Good news, cats are free, you can go outside and grab one!
I have 24 cats /j
On the other hand, isn’t support for Israel really unpopular? Having it as one of your primary messages means that people disgruntled with the mainstream parties’ stance on Palestine/Israel become interested in your new party
I get your point, but also, Haiti’s final payment to France was in 1947
For Norway a good chunk of the news on our state-run newspaper is related to the US as well. Especially the recent Epstein stuff
Other than that it’s Israel/Palestine, Ukraine/Russia, some other international news, sports, the current heatwave, a little about nature, a little about new infrastructure projects, a news story about hate speech, and a couple other misc stories
Zero day is typically defined as there being zero days since the vulnerability is known to the developer, in other words, it being unknown at the time of the exploit.

Yes I know what vacuum decay is, and the thing I referenced, the inflaton field, is a hypothetized false vacuum near the very start of the universe, that went through this exact process, giving rise to our current vacuum and ending the hypothetized inflation era
I know there’s a hypothesis that our current vacuum could be metastable as well, but that’s a seperate thing
Do you think online is magically separated from the world?
Astronomy is critical towards understanding the foundational principles of reality. Observing the universe around us is the guide for where physics should follow
And I think most people would agree that understanding how our world works, the physics of it all, is very very useful in unforeseen ways. Cannot hope to make a circuit if you don’t know how electricity works, right?
That is literally what the current big bang theory says! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflationary_epoch?wprov=sfla1
She always gave me off vibes. I didn’t really understand why she got the recognition she did
Yes, and that has always been the debate
But the short answer is that we don’t really have a good grasp at what intelligence is, so it is all semantics in the end
The funny thing is, is that the goalposts on what is/isn’t intelligent has always shifted in the AI world
Being good at chess used to be a symbol of high intelligence. Now? Computer software can beat the best chess players in a fraction of the time used to think, 100% of the time, and we call that just an algorithm
This is not how intelligence has always been used. Moreover, we don’t even have a full understand of what intelligence is
And as a final note, human brains are also computational “tools”. As far as we can tell, there’s nothing fundamentally different between a brain and a theoretical Turing machine
And in a way, isn’t what we “spit” out also data? Specifically data in the form of nerve output and all the internal processing that accompanies it?
I doubt china wants an environmental catastrophe any more than any of us. Though I’m sure they like that the US will severely fall back on science. It will let them dominate a lot easier
Exactly why it’d be a curse
What do you think is on the other side of the screen?
Lmao, they think they’re sooooo clever
But hair is still made up of discrete quantity of “stuff”
Well, eventually you get to a point where hairs grow quickly enough that the haircuts effectively stop. I think the sum total of hair material you trend towards at the limit would be the sum of length of hair that grows during the time it takes to do a haircut. Whether it’s 1x or 2x of the hair growth amount depends on whether you measure at the start, or end, of the haircut
While I get this sentiment, to me it still feels pointless, because it all just seems… boring?
Because what’s the thrill? That you might win money? But then if you intentionally go in with your sentiment, there is no money to be won. The thrill is gone.
Why not just play a video game instead?
…do you really think the other commenter meant it in that way, though? And is that how fetish is used in common parlance?
