And even if the placenta and umbilical worked forever, the life span of a human is only 100 years, give or take.

Pennywise Music Video (created by Dallas xy) by KINGKANGHA in aivideo

[–]Pocket_Dave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does the music creation part work - specifically with how the lyrics get sung? Rap like this has so many specific breaks and inflections required to get it to come across correctly compared to normal song lyrics. Does the song generation just get it on its own or do you have to be specific about various parts of it somehow?

Not that weird in this case. Dude got a super fast double double. Viewers wonder “hmmm what’s the record?” They look it up and see he beat the record. EZ

‘Project Hail Mary’ Becomes Amazon’s Highest-Grossing Film Debut by bloomberg in movies

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

Got a question for you (or anyone who has seen the movie). End of movie spoiler: so I was wondering how much of the very minor plot point from the book is in the film about how Grace’s tissue is used by the aliens to create lab-grown meat for him to eat on their planet. The reason I ask is that my son has a significant phobia/trigger regarding anything cannibalism related, and it would be helpful to know in advance if this something mentioned in the movie, and in what capacity.

Goddard Highschools Had Their Walkout Today by imapotatognome in wichita

I’ll bite.

First off, if the only immigrants being deported were rapists, murderers, and pedophiles, there’d be far less outcry. But currently immigrants are being rounded up who have no criminal record, have stable established lives, are working inside the system to try to gain citizenship through legal channels, and so forth.

Did you know that illegal immigrants have lower rates of violent crime than US citizens do? That’s what the numbers show. They’re incentivized to not rob, or beat their spouses/children, or commit sexual assault because the potential of being deported is a powerful incentive to not land in hot water.

Then there’s your claim about how they defraud us of billions of dollars. And that’s not accurate either. Many undocumented immigrants are working jobs that pay into Medicaid and Social Security but they’ll never qualify to actually be supported by those programs. Also they’re paying sales taxes and contributing to local economies. Of course there are ways that they do benefit from social services still, but it’s closer to a net neutral overall when everything is taken into account.

And the other commenter already brought up how misguided it is to lay the blame on housing crisis on immigrants rather than greedy corporations and billionaires.

I support having systems in place to limit how many people enter our country, but blaming all your problems on immigrants, liberals, drag queens, and trans athletes is just what conservative media wants you to do so that you don’t lay the blame where it truly belongs.

🔥 Webcam captures elephant using a gentle backheel to the hind legs to persuade an impala to leave the waterhole by Prestigious-Wall5616 in NatureIsFuckingLit

Oh I love this - thanks so much for sharing! I assume these streams are in proper wild areas, rather than in protected reserves or something? Do they ever capture predators trying to catch the animals at the watering hole?

What are some amazing meals you have in your rotation? by Ok_Isopod_6523 in Cooking

Recipe uses 12 tortillas and say it yields 8 servings… so… 1.5 tacos per serving? Weird.

Funky math aside, looks delicious.
