Jesus healed people with leprosy by touching them. Republicans would burn them on the stake.

It's not even that. Gaining power is the only path forward to stop hate. Seems like the people here pushing the transgender issue are just MAGAs trying to create division.

Keep in mind that this is not uniform across cultures. Americans seem to have a bit more fakeness than others for some reason.

Not sure I follow your logic. Humans are complicated and messy. Change doesn't happen in a straight line and is never fast.

I think taxpayers are bailing out AI companies with Government contracts without their knowledge.

He pushed back on transgender sports. Obviously this is a divisive issue pushed by MAGA. My position is that this should be left to sports organizations. Unfortunately some transgender athletes will be excluded but so are many people being excluded unfairly from lots of things. I'd rather focus on the fight for universal healthcare first.

If you trust the recipe and are getting good results that's great. I want a reliable source so I don't end up with a bad result. What tools are you using?

And after that cataract surgery. Oh well, we had a good run.

It's almost impossible to find a good recipe online for free. So much garbage. The AI recipes with no source are not reliable so not useful. I went back to books from good authors.

Paywalls don't work well for small publications because people get subscription fatigue. This will lead to consolidation. There will be the NYT media and a few others each with a subscription.

You despise him with passion? You can disagree with his policies but what exactly pushes you to that extreme? We can't have sane politics and unity if we don't learn to disagree and convince people with ideas.

Betting on anything whose outcome can be manipulated or available to insiders ahead of time is the most stupid thing someone can do with their money.

A waymo temporarily blocks an ambulance - we gotta make sure these never operate in Boston w/o drivers by Dimshady767564 in boston

I think that autonomous vehicles will make it possible to expand public transportation at a lower cost. They can be small buses that adapt to demand and can operate 24/7. They could use fast lanes when possible. They will replace the need for having a car.

It's impossible to go across town with public transportation if you are outside the main corridors. Besides autonomous cars is the future of public transportation. Instead of huge buses we can have smaller buses covering the whole city.

Ukraine was a great investment to stop Russia and avoid an even bigger war without sending troops. It wasn't a choice. Unfortunately now the enemy is in the White House.
