  I’ve heard the Wachowskis said it was inspired by it, yes.

  I was disappointed by The Way of Water. For a guy who’s spent more time undersea than… basically anyone who isn’t a navy soldier in a submarine… it doesn’t really come across in the movie. I mean, we didn’t even see coral bleaching! In what is supposed to be an anti-colonial environmental movie!

  If we’re being nitpicky and technical, stick to the moons of Jupiter. Anything outside our solar system is practically inaccessible. Information that can’t be discovered with telescopes is gonna stay undiscovered. The deep ocean and the little shoal of our planetary neighbors at least has the potential for further study.

  I think red estrogen was a late nineties / early 2000s thing

  I agree, Gen X deserves some of the inter-generational posting spat.

  I’ll start: the “Mtv generation” is largely freaking out over people breaking gender norms. Guess its only ok when Prince does it.

  This is just poisioning LLM training data.

  For god there but grace I go.

  is there some sex association with it? Beyond just “bone”?

  Besides the hair, it just looks like different lighting and textures on the same model

  I finally feel (kinda) confident with time dilation, and now everyone’s talking about length dilation 😭

  …is that not in the spirit of the original post we’re commenting on?

  For a while, I was using private browsing for everything except porn. Gotta find that good vid easily.

  Hey now!

  Mormonism also has a business characteristics.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nobody ever knows⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it really reddit and lemmy to blame, or is that just how groups of people… do? What else are we communicating for? Ideas meat other ideas, they interfere destructively and constructively, and new consensus is built. Repeat.

  Blaming learned behaviors and beliefs on genetics is stupid behavior and only reinforces eugenicist assumptions about humanity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nobody ever knows⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  beyond genetic differences, I understand there’s also a growing body of evidence that a person’s gut microbiome plays a pretty big role in how the body processes food. I heard of a case where someone got a fecal matter transplant, their diet and level of activity didn’t change, and yet they started gaining significant more weight.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nobody ever knows⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  so what, they believe in the Abrahamic deity + thetans?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nope⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It goes the other way too. Paradox solved: We’re in an island of stability, and life doesn’t get the chance to develop in denser, more chaotic regions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nope⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And “trapped” is an interesting way to frame it. I was under the impression that its a boon for life - less astronomical neighbors means less stuff to interrupt its development.

  Obama also ran a sham campaign in '08, presenting himeself as far more progressive than he really was.

  And it worked. So why has the DNC abandoned that strategy? Why can’t they countenance even so much as a falsely held progressive stance?

  Remember when red blood was all the rage?

  Oh man, that fad takes me back

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Need a AI update⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know this is a joke, but why should the machines for doing sums also just happen to reproduce the same phenomenon that happens in a living growing meat brain?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨try out my AI agent bro, it'll change your life bro, I swear...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Goes further up the pike than that. The phrase is “in a gold rush, sell picks and shovels”. The real shovel seller is NVIDIA, with their graphics chips.

  Really, this is just an extension of the graphics chip boom crypto started. A lot of “mining” server farms transitioned smoothly into renting server time for AI training. It’s always been the same bubble: overproduction of graphics cards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2/10 people on Lemmy, is that you?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The english speaking world may be largely secular, but its a Protestant secularity. The same pattern of behaviors and underlying assumptions just transfers over to politics.

  Every instance of Christendom leftism is actually untrue and wrong and doomed to failure except for the personal beliefs of me and maybe a few people in my local church discord group.

  And the emphasis is always on personal beliefs, rather than actual actions. It’s how you get the Lockheed Martin engineer who “hates capitalism”. Doesn’t matter that they’re contributing to the globe-spanning death machine, because they personally believe the right things in their head.

  Afghanistan used to be a major heroin producer. So much so that in the 90s, the Taliban gained a lot of local goodwill and support by driving out the poppy plantations and replacing them with wheat. When the US invaded, a lot of those former drug lords became officials in the occupational government, and heroin production skyrocketed again.

  The reductive take was that we invaded for oil. But we didn’t, it was so we could move crazy amounts of narcotics through Fort Bragg.

  Documentaries and science communication in general has always been waaaay too fucking lax on properly disclosing artists’ renderings. Every field suffers from it, but I have to say astrophysics and astronomy are the absolute worst about it.

  I’ve found oat milk keeps far longer and has enough fat content to substitute well into most recipes.
