I don’t think water touches water because it’s all water.

Otherwise you touching a person would make you two people, because the skin is touching skin.

I like soggy over fried tofu tho…

Well, my parents grew up in poverty. And based off what they’ve said, 380$ net worth sounds too high, unless it’s an average. At least back then (even adjusted for inflation btw).

People really don’t understand how poor true poverty is, and why things from poor countries are so much cheaper. I have literally seen families that subsisted off of dump sites.

Also, children usually have 0 net worth for obvious reasons, so if we include children that stat is ready to reach. Especially since children are counted in the world population after all.

I mean ageing technology (what the person might look like after 5 years etc) was also created for human trafficking victims, and I haven’t seen it really being talked about in many years now since it came out. Seems weird to base something on whether or not you’ve heard of it.

If the family doesn’t have a recent picture of the person without makeup, then yeah, this would be useful, since people can look pretty different without makeup. I’m the only one who has recent pictures of my wife without makeup for example, her friends and parents only have pictures of her with makeup since she normally does some when meeting them. She’s also half Chinese, so depending on how she decides to do her make up, can look way more asian or barely asian at all. If I didn’t have those pictures and something happened, the make-up pictures wouldn’t be as useful in searching for her.

Not to mention i feel like lab grown meat in particular will have been made possible through animal suffering research.

I feel like there’s a limit to this. How much time has to pass before it’s ethical again? After all, many animals were harmed in the research (selective breeding) of modern vegetables too. It’s a process that took hundreds to thousands of years and a ton of livestock used as farm equipment to create something like the modern carrot.

Poking with a modern needle or using a single cattle by comparison is a lot less sacrificial research by comparison, only it’s more recent.

This is nice to know. Cinny looks beautiful from a UX perspective, wish they made an app too. Not enough good UX in open source stuff.

You can edit the post with *apparently not all countries

I was a pessimist, therefore the results have actually come out pretty good to me. Far right didn’t win Belgium, and Left party gained a lot of seats in Finland while right wing parties lost seats. Yeah Germany (eyes them suspiciously) and France turned out very right, but a lot of the other countries stayed about ideologically the same or gained left leaning seats.

Overall it seems it’s balanced enough to keep going with the corporate accountability / public convenience stuff we’ve been seeing here in the EU, especially related to tech.

Well considering this ideas were taken from Endless Legend, you should give that a try. Or if you want something more Civ like, they also have Humankind, which is like Civ but better and the AI is really good (they made it even better now than before, and it was already way ahead of Civ’s NPC AIs). They also have a unique win condition with Fame.

You should just razor the neck area and keep it trimmed short if it’s thick. Don’t use any products. The products can make itching worse.

But if you really want to thin it out and slow the growth, I used to be like you, and chemo has done wonders for that. Slows all the hair actually. (/S)

But seriously it’s curious not having a fast growing beard. Haven’t known what that’s like since I first grew one at 12.

Neither was that YouTube video 🤷🏻‍♂️

Also responding to unrelated topics will make some think you’re a bot. The conversation should happen organically. It’ll get you clicks but not positive interaction.

It helps with self sustainability, communication, lowering costs of needs, efficiency, etc.

Renewables for example decrease the reliance on government significantly for example.

It’s not fatalism, but fact. Humans are the real issue. We weren’t biologically evolved to deal with such large groups, along with certain other DNA quirks.

That said, with technology and/or time such a flaw could be fixed so that we either are able to overcome our biological shortcomings, and/or technology allows us to achieve structure without hierarchy while also preventing hierarchy from springing up as well.

I mean, it has worked historically, just extremely rarely. Singapore was one such recent example.

The issue is that people die and the next person usually fucks everything up again.

Anarchy has similar issues.

The real problem is just us; humans.
