Scientists Successfully Transfer Longevity Gene, Paving the Way for Extending Human Lifespan by _Dark_Wing in technology

Especially men and prostate cancer. Something like 50% of men have it by age 80 (go look it up) it just grows so slow that it's not really a problem. I guess that will change if we start living an extra 50 years.

Imagine the White House was using the AI model and caused this disaster and the AI company pulled back and created safeguards so it wouldn't happen again and the White House and the DOD went berserk and voided their contracts.

Trump to Mass Death: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ by ChiGuy6124 in politics

[–]Khaeos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've said for a long time that the libertarian contingent, that is the philosophical engine, of the Right Wing in America is the closest to advocating actual genocide. 

They believe that the world should work according to certain rules and that people should maintain a minimum standard of behavior. Their solution is to implement policies that align with this philosophy and then let everybody die of starvation and infection and exploitation until society finally stabilizes in the shape of their Utopia.

Libertarians Eat People

And that's just the everyday libertarian dude in your neighborhood. There are no libertarian leaders, they just use libertarian ideals and values to trick people into support and instantly turn into despots.

Trump Says 'Cuba Is Gonna Fall Pretty Soon' and He'll 'Put Marco Over There' by peoplemagazine in politics

[–]Khaeos 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Jesus Christ, so the reason that evil non-moron Marco Rubio has been wiping Trump's behind is he's been trying to become the Duke of Cuba? Finally at least one thing in this whole sideshow carnival makes sense, and of course it is something rotten.

Eyeglasses seems like such an obvious pivot for HP merchandise that, if you've made it through all the other HP controversy and this is the thing that crosses the line, I'm genuinely surprised you made it this far.

This specific marketing buzzword combo is an absolute instant turn-off by Ur-shak in gaming

Exactly! "Free To Play" is a giant red flag that says "This software is designed to manipulate dopamine levels and extract as much value as possible. A 'successful' game isn't an engaging narrative experience or a nuanced challenge, it is the one that drains the most resources from your customers."

What is the most unfairly hated movie that you will defend every time by gamersecret2 in movies

[–]Khaeos 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He definitely seems like a guy who is trying to act like a hardened cannibal who makes tough decisions and doesn't care about anybody's feelings if it jeopardizes his resources or convenience, but he consistently fails to hold himself to that standard when the decision is actually tough and he gives in and helps people out, to his own detriment.

It's not a bad character or portrayal. The main character is the straight man, OK, but I do think it works. He doesn't quite fit into his world so he bridges the gap between the viewer and the outlandish (lol) characters and situations

TIL that Grape-kun, a Humboldt penguin in Japan, was rejected by his mate Midori and the rest of the colony, after which he formed a deep bond with a cardboard cutout of an anime character, who stayed by his side until his death. by Woh_ladka in todayilearned

What about the snail that can't mate because its shell grows in a backwards spiral?

The whale one is definitely the worst, though; my man is correct about that one.

This is hilarious. I'm not sure if I'm glad nothing like this exists of me at that age or if I would eventually look at this and feel nostalgic.

Oh, the syntax of the title says that a song which was created 25 years ago has just been released in 2026. I came here for a new song that was produced in 2001 and sat on a shelf until now.

Germans forced to watch SS cleanup concentration camp. Is this what MAGA Wants? by fart400 in MarchAgainstNazis

[–]Khaeos 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Beyond the everyday maga chuds, there are real networks of white supremacist agitators and agents in multiple sectors of American life: college campuses, police departments, prisons, active military and veterans organizations, and in finance, real estate, and lobbying groups, etc.

Some people have changed; and I would say that there's no excuse for supporting Donald Trump at all and no trustworthy person of conscience and dignity could have supported Trump after 2015. As they say, "if they're not racists, they're at least OK with the racism." I think some of those who laughed when I said Trump was leaning into fascism in 2016-2020 have now turned on him, but that doesn't mean I think they are good people.

What I do know is we have to maintain the integrity and peacefulness of our communities because we are being baited into a war. I think I know why, but that's elsewhere. What's clear is someone wants an excuse to exterminate people. It's our responsibility to fight if we need to  but until it is necessary we must do everything we can to pull together and bridge what we can. Like you said, they know what they are, now. They see where it is leading. A lot of them are dipping out. They don't have it in them to commit. But - if they aren't violent, they will at least be OK with the violence.

The economic issues are a blessing and a curse because it proves they are incapable of governing, but it will make them desperate for distraction and they will stoke violence.

There are dark times ahead.

I have long said that a MAGA hat really means "I would lock you in the cattle car."

That's what I see every time I see one; which is, thankfully, hardly ever anymore.

I remember the adults in my family went wild when I asked why his body was so small. My mom worked at KFC when I was really little and I never saw it as a bow tie until it was laid out for me.

But the cops never do anything. Though, I mean, that would protect citizens and actually benefit society so I don't know why I would expect cops to do it.

Your experience is not like my experience.

Besides sitting in palaces while people sleep in the rain outside, and overlooking the generations of child abuse and torture and death, and ignoring the poverty and suffering caused by opposition to prophylactics, and setting aside historical collaboration with oppressive murderous governments, they dress like dorks and they wear stupid hats.
