Isn’t that another? I remember a Youtuber who made living rat neurons play DOOM. He also made meat leaves, btw.

Ooh, that’s fascinating, how could we implement those elsewhere, eg in the rest of Europe?
- Comment on Are you friends with any AI bots? 2 days ago:
It’s dumb and doesn’t tackle the root of loneliness. If they’re lonely, they need support to find new friends.
If they have trouble making friends, and it’s not due to their own personality being toxic (like being an incel, creep, borderline, or generally an asshole), then they also need support in learning how to socialise.
That doesn’t mean they’d have to socialise, just that they learn how to do so, and so have a way out of their vicious circle. Best way to make friends as an adult (so, no school/college/uni), is to go to the circles where you have mutual interests.
So, go sport together. Take up an hobby. Schedule meetups with the people you like and know online.

shitpost answer: don’t have a tinder profile
real answer: just as you said, if the profile looks too good to be true, if it gives off AI-written vibes, and so on.
also, if they’re asking for money at some given point, or proposing that you can make some, in any given way…

Not everywhere is the Anglosphere.
- Comment on People who live in southern hemisphere countries: do your mall Santas dress for freezing cold weather? 4 days ago:
That’s not really “everywhere”. Not all 180-200 countries have them.
- Comment on People who live in southern hemisphere countries: do your mall Santas dress for freezing cold weather? 4 days ago:
Do you think mall Santas exist everywhere, or do you realise that different cultures have different traditions?
- Comment on People who live in southern hemisphere countries: do your mall Santas dress for freezing cold weather? 4 days ago:
No because we don’t have mall Santas.
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 4 days ago:
To build up their armies and get independent from American, Russian, and Chinese interests.
And to undermine fascism and its (potential) allies at every opportunity possible.
- Comment on How come NK doesn't just come out and say we are in trouble and need help? Like their lack of food and stuff? I really don't see a downside for a country admit they were wrong and need help 4 days ago:
Capitalism is oligarchy. It is actually practised pretty much everywhere.

Yup. If red, brown, and cash fascism are all focused on extorting the many while benefiting the elite through corruption and repression, then is capitalism really a way to improvement?

Not that I support the DPRK, but considering the massive rise of fascism, I don’t think it’s anywhere near ‘wrong’ to consider capitalism a danger.
I criticise the DPRK for its horrific repression, but considering what capitalism in the US has brought, it is naïve to assume the US is all benevolent.

It’d open the floodgates for “”“aid”“” that actually aims to put up a far-right capitalist dictatorship.
Socialist states only take aid from other socialist states and stateless communist societies.
- Comment on Come the fuck on.... please? 5 days ago:
I think the ultimate cause for most of the world’s problems is Russia and its decrepit fascism.
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 5 days ago:
What we could do is build networks of interconnected support and arm/train ourselves.
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 5 days ago:
One method would be a global alliance against fascism.
- Comment on What exactly is the reasoning behind Satan ruling Hell? 5 days ago:
Too cool for God.
the bible says satan causes illness but then god causes the firstborn to die, causes plagues, and so on.
the bible says god is good but god is a judgemental ass who raped a woman and impregnated her, and who forces suffering onto people.

Alright, I see you’re too naïve then.
- Comment on If snap benefits are paid for where are the funds going? 6 days ago:
Except it doesn’t make sense as even back then, they could still mooch profit off such a stop.
Plus, if they wanted such a STOP to stop, they’d not feel the pressure themselves. Sure, on the other hand it makes them less prone to corruption in theory, but if they already are rich then why would we even need to make politicians even richer?
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 6 days ago:
To us Europeans, the US also feels like a threat because it means an ally less against Russia.
You’re extremely naïve if you think the rest of the world is safe.
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 6 days ago:
i think the most dangerous mistake one can make is to underestimate the power of a military budget that’s almost half that of the world’s military budget.
such mistakes can be made only once before the country gets couped or taken hostage by the US.
in these times i think it’s important to band together and set aside our differences!
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 6 days ago:
dog if you think the US is “relatively small”
look at what Nazi Germany, an even “smaller” country did – it started a world war and nearly took over an entire continent.
the fascist US, with a much larger influence, is an existential threat to the world.

They don’t see chav as a racial slur, as they don’t view it as part of race, I think.

what’s even more corrupt is that the president and congress etc. still get paid
