Even then there’s so much overlap in human dimorphism that it’s not an exact science, there’s still like a 5-10% error rate in sexing perfectly preserved pelvic bones. Accurate enough for anthropology, but that’s a big error rate to apply to individuals.

‘Car’ should have been painted over with white instead of black. The other text already has a white outline. This is hard to read.

The prisoners Bush had sent to Egypt were not sent from the US, they were sent from different countries that allowed extradition to Egypt. It was disgusting and abhorrent, but it isn’t the same thing as what we’re seeing now.

Flying people from the US to foreign prisons without due process is a blatant violation of the constitution.

Maybe we’re not thinking of the same movies, but when I think of old Disney I don’t see that pattern:

• Snow White: an orphan girl, bullied by her step mom, flees into the woods to live with dwarfs, then becomes a princess because she’s pretty.
• Pinocchio: wooden puppet is given life by a fairy to reward its craftsman for being a good person.
• Fantasia: artistic vignettes
• Bambi: life of a deer.
• Cinderella: an orphan girl, bullied by her stepmom, becomes a princess because she’s pretty, with the help of a fairy who rewards her for being a good person.

To me it seems like the good guys are mostly attractive youths with a strong work ethic and no parents.

Since studying machine learning I’ve become a lot less opposed to AI as a concept and specifically opposed to corporate/cloud LLMs.

Like a simple on-device model that helps turn speech to text isn’t something to be opposed, it’s great for privacy and accessibility. Same for the models used by hospitals for assistive analysis of medical imaging, or to remove background noise from voice calls.

People don’t seem to think of that as ‘AI’ anymore though, it’s like these big corporations have colonized the term for their buggy wasteful products. Maybe we need new terminology.

The glass is also weirdly large considering it looks like it should be at roughly the same distance as the people.

Well it relied on trump being in power to take effect. Having a useful idiot in the executive opens a lot of doors. I don’t see how the Republicans could seize power without him, Vance wasn’t ever going to win on his own.

Yes and yes. It’s pretty good imo, my favorite milkshake flavor. They were super popular in the 1920s.

You could put your feet in your kneepits, but I’m not sure how warm they are.

The guy got a milkshake for his wife and she was grateful, then they both got sarcastic because that’s how they do.

If it would keep trump out of office for another four years it would make the odds of him ever regaining power vanishingly small; he’d be in his mid eighties in the next election, and all the lawsuits against him wouldn’t have been thrown out.

Say what you will about Biden, but he was pretty effective at pausing the slide into fascism. He strengthened ties with our allies and invested in infrastructure. If Harris had won we could have taken back the Supreme Court and actually started reversing course.

We sort of did have a ‘stop fascism’ button, but it was labelled Kamala Harris and a lot of people just weren’t really feeling like voting I guess.

Not having a penis: the perfect counter to the fidgit spinner trap

This one is particularly hard to look at too. The inconsistent style, the perspective problems, the weird postures, the unnatural motion, Gate’s weird three fingered hand.

You could make a better version of the same thing with Gimp.

And the white boy and girl were blue and pink respectively.

I like to give a thumbs up to drivers who stop for me. Not because they’re doing some huge favor, I just like to be encouraging.

If it crashes the line would decapitate him

That would mean all taxes are theft.

You’re welcome to have that perspective, but it doesn’t map well onto any modern legal framework for ownership.
