I noticed discord and google doing it. Didn’t think much of it but maybe you are onto something

Not only the content doesn’t exist yet, it’s just not practical. Even now 4k broadcasting is rare and 4k streaming is now a premium (and not always with a good bitstream, which matters a lot more) when once was offered as a cost-free future, imagine 8k that would roughly quadruple the amount of data required to transmit it (and transmit speee is not linear, 4x the speed would probably be at least 8x the cost).

And I seriously think noone except the nerdiest of nerds would notice a difference between 4k and 8k.

Energy is nof only used to “create” value, but also to hold it. Even when you reach the limit of 21 something milion bitcoins, every transaction will require a huge amount of energy, and the amount it requires will go up.

Can you really call it winter below 20°?

I asked a therapist the same question and they said: “the problem is you are costantly trying to find a solution for a problem that doesn’t have one, if you are feeling down, sometimes there really is no other solution other than waiting, processing and coping. Take your time if you are not in a crisis and let it pass through”

CGP grey did a video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHzzSao6ypE

Basically one car breaking too much will make the following brake even more and so on until one stops and there’s a jam. There is no clear reason like a road blockage or an accident, just compounding slow down.

Not sure about USA, but in other countries istigation to suicide is absolutely illegal and punished.

Pure NaCl is cloudy white, so if it has any other color, there are other minerals mixed in the crystals, the NaCl is still there, there are also a buch of other atoms

If only the search function worked more than half of the time, just like it doesn’t work on 10

Just going to say this, sometimes it’s useful to confront with people, but be wary of the slippery slopes of negativity that tend to develop online.

Focus on yourself and improve first, the more you look for something, the less likely you’ll get it (and yes, this desperation likely transpires on dating profiles and irl converdations).

Where do you think today’s problems come from? Bad education makes a generation of ignorant, functionally illiterate, warmongering subjects.

The most annoying thing is it blasting “battery low” every 30 seconds when the battery gets below 20%, making them absolutely unusable. At least Sony lets out a ver short beep to let you know, and only twice

You can. I can enjoy Hitler’s paintings because they contains no nazism, even if a nazist mind produced them (you could argue that in his youth he was not yet a nazi, but that still doesn’t matter).

Heck, I’m going even further and say that even if a form of art posses some inheritely bad aspect, you can still separate it from other artistic characteristics.

Let’s say Hitler did a panting of a gas chamber killing people in a death camp, but is painted in such a skillfull and technically relevant way to be revolutionary in the art, then it’s ok if people like it (technically, not ideologically), it’s ok if it’s owned and hang in a museum, even if it depicts real, evil and needless suffering. You can approcciate something technically or artistically without having to embrace the ideals it represents. And it’s important to not cancel things just because bad people did it, because remembering is important.

As for modern bad artist, it’s more complicated because you might not want to financially support an artist who is a criminal/terrible person, but that still doesn’t mean you can’t appreciate their art.

When you bought an album you owned it for life. With spotify you are borrowing the music and if you stop paying you get nothing left

Such an experiment would be highly unethical and of doubtful interest. After all, you already know sexuality develops without influence, is it useful to know if it develops differently under pressure? To do so it requires to possibly ruin people’s live, that’s why it’s not done.

Also, we already have the opposite experience: gays being convinced to be straight. As far as I know, it doesn’t really work and only creates suppressed emotions that ruins their sexuality.

10 or so years ago, Steam accepted payments in Bitcoin, for some reason they stopped, so they certinaly can do that but chose not to.

Also, 99% of people would not use it so wouldn’t change much.

Also just because you have fantasies at some point, doesn’t mean you will follow the and they won’t “go away” in the future. That’s just your brain trying to figure out the unclean mess that sexual orientation is.

If you use a vpn you appear as a non-uk user, you don’t have to show the ID. If you don’t have an existing account, the only reliable source of geolocation for websites is your ip address, so a vpn can effectively circumvent that.

Maybe they are giant cats on normal couches?

That’s not what I’m saying, a healthy diet consists of different sources of calories. There’s no “better source than others”, you need all in different quantities. Some are worse in excess, but you still need all for a balanced nutrition.
