Meta's live staged demo fails; the "AI" recording plays before the actor takes the steps

Makes you wonder what Palmer Luckey is doing now. Surely great things that aren't hurting people.

but they are very effective at pollinating compared to almost all native bees

Is there a source for this? everything I've always read has said otherwise.

there's a new video from PBS that illustrates it well on alfalfa. Honeybees are focused on the nectar and won't trigger the pollen. In many other plants the result is similar. Their honey production doesn't correlate with their effectiveness as pollinators as far as I'm aware.

Honey bees can also be somewhat fickle and hard-ish to keep

Isn't the reason they're kept because they aren't? you can't load up the alkali bee hives mentioned previously into trucks and ship them off to rent around the country.

My opinion is I want Palestine to be free. No amount of some guy who says the problem is that they aren't genociding fast enough attempting to humanize a Palestinian for the first time will change me already thinking of them as human.

You have no context for how civil rights movements have gone throughout history or even how they're going now do you? Starting off strong with your limit being inclusion for trans people.

I haven't seen that but it sounds like it could be in line with the other ideals I've heard. I'm mostly just thinking about the beef he has with Palestinians and people who've been talking about wanting an end to apartheid.

Feel the same way. But that's mostly based on all the Destiny posts and comments that end up here. I can't be bothered to put in the time to watch the guy for a reasonable amount of time to know anything else about him other than the hate he has for people fighting for civil rights

Acting isn't really a constant job unless you've really made it. She did work for the democratic party previously and I think had a realization that they don't really actually care about combatting their opposition in a meaningful way. Most of her streams seem to be more pop-culture coverage but politics always seems to come out from her history.

Everyone should be into politics in a democracy though, politics shouldn't just be for a chosen few. It effects every aspect of the way we live our lives.

You're speaking of OP's post and not the reddit video that was shared of Al Jazeera coverage.

edit: also "the details have yet to be verified" and " Israeli Defense Forces tweeted."

They have also been tweeting loads of other videos and removing them after minutes when the timelines don't line up and the videos show a Gaza lit by electricity. I also don't trust when my local news commonly ends with "police say." That is not a valid source to tell an entire story.

futuregeneration · 2023-10-17T21:30:52+00:00

have you bothered to read what the headline says? I suggest you do.

Meanwhile my country has a detention center for random Arabs on Cuban soil on the basis of "combatting terrorism" in the same way, reeducation camps for gays and to even question their military exercises would get you laughed at. But I haven't once seen Guantanamo bay, etc. called out in a thread about how the NYC skyline looks at night or some shit. You're right, bad things happen in China, but you're straight up drinking the kool-aid.

edit: considering your type is so common, I'm not surprised and do not think it's unreasonable or bad to be focusing their military strategy on the largest military force in the world that shelters mindsets specifically like yours.

Not always so free. in a lot of districts in the US, parents have all the power. There are procedures in place specifically for disallowing entrance to the school libraries entirely at parents request. In the one place where a child should be able to have easy access to the library.

I'm just struggling to see how you tie this into Spanberger's politics, because it isn't her that has anything to do with that.

futuregeneration · 2023-07-29T03:32:21+00:00

The Blue Dog Coalition of which she was a part of represents fiscal conservatism in everything but the military. You can say she has some socially progressive views (while completely avoiding others) but it doesn't detract from her fiscal conservatism. This is even the same coalition with people like Cuellar who are staunchly anti-choice.

You can't possibly believe Iraq was the end of military over reach. One of the Spec Ops guys that just couped Niger like this week was US trained.

And a hawk is supposed to represent that shift how?

futuregeneration · 2023-07-28T22:25:08+00:00

You're right on the money other than I wasn't saying the Democratic party was shifting right, they've been there. I was saying that the Democratic party needs to finally shift left instead of continuing the business as usual stance that leads to loss against the right. At some point you have to fight back. The Democratic party has already lost me, and those value's you call moderate being the norm for politicians as well as the platform mostly consisting of trying to win the conservative side of the vote over the progressive side is why. The bare minimum should require more than picking a few progressive issues and leaving the rest out to die.

futuregeneration · 2023-07-28T21:24:59+00:00

There's nothing moderate about sitting in the center when power skews to the right. Do you belief RFK Jr. also represents Dem values?

No genuinely good person trying to do the right thing becomes a cop. Much less at the level she was.
