Competitors tend to do that. Originally Firefox used traditional version numbering up until 3.0, but then when Chrome came out with their numbering scheme of incrementing the main version number with every minor update, Firefox followed suit. It’s the same reason Microsoft called the Xbox successor the Xbox 360, if the average consumer would see the Xbox 2 next to the PS3, they’d at least subconsciously think the PS3 was more advanced.

Because it doesn’t have any understanding of the rules of chess or even an internal model of the game state, it just has the text of chess games in its training data and can reproduce the notation, but nothing to prevent it from making illegal moves, trying to move or capture pieces that don’t exist, incorrectly declaring check/checkmate, or any number of nonsensical things.

As a guy with long hair, I’ve learned to just roll my eyes at the gendering of hair products. The all in one shit is made with the assumption that it’s being used on short hair that’ll be chopped off in a few months max, so it doesn’t need to preserve anything. Long hair has to last years.

Capitalism in its current form has existed for the last 2% of human civilization. 5% if you count mercantilism as a form of capitalism. For the vast majority of history, people owned their own means of production.

Even the most oppressive tyrants in history understood the concept of bread and circuses. Most people will stay complacent when their fundamental rights are being taken away as long as they have their distractions. Taking away the distractions is something you only do after you’ve fully consolidated your power. They’re so obsessed with projecting an aura of oppressiveness that they’ve forgotten how to hold power.

That’s a bit of a false dilemma though. The two options aren’t “it’s a magical elixir with absolutely no downsides” and “people deserve to be locked in a cage and have their life ruined for possessing it”. Plenty of legal things can cause harm. 35% of people are lactose intolerant, do we ban dairy?

The fact that Windows hides file extensions by default is just absolute insanity to me.

Is there anything morally different between pretending to be ICE to break into people’s homes to rob them and actually being ICE and breaking into people’s homes to rob them?

Only suspected to be. Bukele himself concedes a roughly 20% error rate and it’s probably much worse than that.

“Oh but we used to live in fear of gangs!” You still do, you just traded one gang for a different, state-sanctioned one.

15 year generations don’t really make sense though, the whole concept of a generation is that they’re the previous generation’s kids.

My conspiracy theory is it was chosen to deliberately harm the optics of environmentalists. Something with minimal useful impact and maximum inconvenience would turn people against the whole idea of environmentally friendly alternatives.

He never intended to build the Hyperloop. From the start, it was a lie to shut down a proposed project to build a west coast high speed rail line.

The wound predates Reagan and goes back to the Civil War. Sherman had the chance to cauterize it, but he held back and let it fester, and here we are.

A lot of Trump voters are horribly uninformed. They didn’t know - and still don’t know - what Project 2025 is. They thought it was fearmongering because they only heard about it from Dems. They have no idea what’s happening right now, nor do they care. All they know is their team won, and they’re otherwise tuned out. Maybe they’ll wake up when they feel the effects, but they’ll probably just blame Democrats because Fox News tells them to.

You won’t even know they’re ads, it will just implant false childhood memories, giving you positive associations with the brand.

Conservatives believe there are only 2 possible roles for a father, absent or abusive.

Legally, not without a constitutional amendment. But if he just declares he’s running anyway, the Constitution is as likely to stop him as any other piece of paper.

A sack of garbage can be human shaped. Look at Elon Musk for example.
