Plastics!
I knew the future would be all about plastics.

Damn, people will literally never run out of ways to milk the Holocaust for sympathy will they?

Laws to limit it won’t be fruitful. There’s too much upside to tossing AI at complex problems that even if there is legislation that attempts to hinder progress, individuals and companies foreign to the law will continue anyway.
We are literally watching a digital gold rush across most industries. Whoever strikes gold gets rich.

The video i saw had sound for both. The guy talks over it the first few times, but eventually you do hear the props.

Yeah, i watched the video and it is some dude talking the entire time. Not one second of the sound was in that video. Then there is a video about boats, with engines running on top, and then another that has a dude.. just talking. Not one second of the prop itself making noise compared to traditional.

Or people just aren’t reporting long covid as much because the help isn’t there and it costs a lot. I agree with ya

I mean, reporting may be down, but sickness isn't

Sounds like AI will also be successful when it becomes self-aware and develops human-killing [fill in the blank]. I, for one, welcome our SkyNet overlords.

Reply to Colorado wildlife camera accidentally captures hundreds of adorable 'bear selfies' by citytiger
It's not a selfie if the bear didn't take the pictures himself. I really wish "journalists" would stop misusing the term.

Not someone, the municipality of Amsterdam thought it was a good idea to invest this money for the wellbeing of its citizens...
(sorry but i saw someone in another reddit post ridicule the fact that it won't be profitable for at least 10/15 years or so)

Really appreciate this, thank you!
Didn’t even know there where services for helping you hunt for apartments, definitely gonna look into that.
While it of course would be nice to live in Amsterdam, the company also recommended Haarlem as a lot of their expats move there apparently.
I’m moving from Gothenburg, Sweden, so the weather won’t be an issue at all lol.

Finding an apartment is hard. Do some research before coming. Do you have a service to help you apartment hunt? I’m recommend it, but also don’t purely count on them. You need to be ready to jump on any viewing, and if you like it, offer that same day.
I love everything about being here, but finding an apartment took two months and was super stressful. Get a very clear picture in your head of your must-haves, and your wants, and what you can concede on, and really be honest to yourself about it.
Where are you coming from? You’ll need things like a raincoat, waterproof bag, depending on what kind of lifestyle you’re leading. Wind and rain is common, but its not usually THAT cold (depending on your perspective)

I’m moving to Amsterdam in a couple of months, just accepted a job offer yesterday. You don’t happen to have any tips to share?

True. But I think the point of it is to capture different wildlife. Not just a few curious bears.

Having to rely on your classmates to design and build you a prosthetic arm, rather than having access to one that is affordable or free is the exact definition of a boring dystopia. This sub is full of these "feel good" stories that really shine a light on how messed up our nation is.

It's not really accidental... it's a wildlife camera.

There is a video, at least in the link I clicked, in the article that you can hear it and it is a huge difference

Haarlem is absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous town. I did get a place in Amsterdam in the end, but I looked in Haarlem, Zaandam, Weesp and even Almere.
Yeah you’ll be fine with the weather at least. Bring your bike of you have one, buy one if you don’t.
