The internet as the internet companies percieved it would look like and sold it as absolutely and completely vanished, yeah.

The internet is a funny analogue!

Because it experienced the dot com crash under almost the same sort of circumstances.

Sometimes relaxing regulatory measures leads to people following them better, as they better match the intent of the regulation rather than being seen as absurd. It also lowers the 'benefit' of deviancy from that regulation.

Sometimes you're right, you regulate more extremely than the intent because people will follow it better, or it makes it easier to enforce.

The point is there's not a one size fits all.

Ooooh another supercomputer claiming to surpass or approach a human brain. Cute! The simulations it'll run will probably be pretty neat though.

None of these really seem that off topic lol. Especially not the one marked off topic in the pictured post.

Trilium for a database and therefore faster method that is actually foss.

Obsidian is reaching market criticality so I'm expecting enshitification any time now.

Im going to correct and elaborate here.

Just taken at face value this claim is wrong. What you're thinking of is that you can often get military hardware in media, as in tanks, soldiers as extras, uniforms, 3d models of vehicles, etc. Directly from the military/dod. These are things which often cost millions of dollars, you can occasionally get them for free in your movie. The caveat is generally that then the dod is allowed to vet and veto scenes and uses, the expectation being that they can kick out anything that depicts the military in a bad lens, more or less.

You just don't digest as much nor store as much calories. So your feces and urine, as well as exhalation.

It's not cheating basic physics, there's just a lot of misunderstanding about how weight works in biology. Cico is not what many people believe it to be.

That's what it always was. Many people view. "Politics" as simply being anything they don't like or disagree with.
