Sounding human doesn’t make something human, it sounds human until it doesn’t, because it doesn’t really think. That concept is why we originally developed the turing test.

Humans have moral context, societal context, the ability to identify something as factual in the real world and more. It imagines everything, it has no way to discern fact from fiction.

The only way meat is cheaper than a slavery free vegan (or vegetarian) diet is if that meat comes from a torture factory

a single counterexample would disprove this. also, torture factories don’t exist.

Some of these factory farms are pretty torturous for the animals, like the scale of our meat production is way too high to be clean or humane, ESPECIALLY chicken.

Local meat is still worse for the environment than non-meat that was shipped across the globe

I don’t know how you can prove this

Measurement of carbon emissions is a huge one but local meat is still usually better in that aspect, and it’s also the people doing the local farming have closer to living wages usually.

They use arch btw

That’s scientifically incorrect on so many levels

Agreed

Vegans that think like this aren’t right, you can not eat meat if you want, but eating meat is a natural thing. We humans, especially in America, eat entirely too much meat, but we are omnivores. You don’t need meat to survive but it’s easier to do so when you eat meat, and as it stands, cheaper! The real issue is the cruelty and unsanitary conditions that are rampant across the factory farm/meat industry. There is too little regulation, and too few companies controlling the market. An equally good form of protest is to just get your meat sourced locally. It can be an even better form of protest depending on what you would eat as a vegan, because there are several crops that are commonly eaten by vegans that have slave labor and water depletion involved i.e. almonds and quinoa.

Edit: wording

Ai is taking literally all our resources all over the world and yet we keep shoveling shit on the pile. It’s failed and they’re trying to shove more money and resources at the issues to fix something that ain’t broken, it’s just a failure. This is fucking ridiculous

Congressional inaction? You mean Mike Johnson holding the house hostage?

It didn’t channel anyone, it can’t think or learn, it’s just spouting out patterns it regocnizes.

MTG doesn’t need a redemption arc, stop reporting on her

I can’t really tell scale there but several bites in a row like that might indicate bed bugs, check the corner of your mattress, and any clothes near where you sleep

Yup

There’s an “online mode” setting you can set to false, but you also won’t have skins, and if your server was online, your inventory will be reset, and so will your spawn point

Several actions on a server ping Microsoft’s servers for authentication, I couldn’t login to my self hosted server because of the azure outages yesterday

Bet if you shot up this jackass’s car he’d be a lot less prepared than he fucking thinks

I think they were joking

The US’s democracy has been systematically and continuously eroded for decades, from defunding of the arts/education, defunding of social services, citizens united, consolidation of all media outlets under a few wealthy individuals that shape the US narrative. The people are misinformed, and even so a large majority of those who aren’t are impoverished and barely surviving. Election day isn’t a holiday meaning some of them can’t afford to take time off to vote. And that’s ignoring the gerrymandering and voter suppression that’s been rampant for decades now too, swaying local and statewide elections. Most people don’t want this, but everything is working against us, most of us don’t want this and didn’t vote for him or his chronies. And for the people in the comments saying “that’s not how a democracy works” CORRECT ours has been dying since the 80’s at the least, and it’s not like America was this shining rod of democracy before that either. It’s not the citizens doing this, they don’t have any say in this type of thing, it’s those who have forced, bribed, and conned their way into power doing everything.

As an American I genuinely fear for the upcoming primaries because in no way do I trust that the results will be legitimate, and even if they are I feel as though they’ll be fucking ignored.
