Fuck AI@lemmy.world•OMG Android Auto is so much better since an update replaced Google Assistant with the new Gemini AI
23·21 hours agoThat’s so much better, AI finding new friends for you. Hopefully whoever is on the other side of 555-555-5555 is also looking for a new friend. We already know something happened to their mom otherwise Gemini wouldn’t have picked it to send your text.
Let us know how this develops

science@lemmy.world•Don’t reach for the bug spray: scientists find insects may feel pain after crickets nurse sore antennaeEnglish
56·2 days agoI seriously don’t understand people’s assumption that insects don’t feel pain, or people who think bug spray is a painless option to kill. Seeing the bugs squirm for half an hour should probably clue you in. Personally it’s my last resort.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I used to love computing as a hobby, but now it feels like it's a source of evil in the world, how have you dealt with this?
5·3 days agoUm I’m not a very tech savvy person. From my perspective, computing is also the only resource left to maintain our rightful freedom over tech. The Internet is meant to be free. Tech is supposed to be yours. Yes, there are exploitative assholes using technology to suck the joy out of you. But I celebrate the people who find and share ways to bypass, circumvent, and nullify this abuse. Which is also computing, right?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•"If I can't win an argument, I must change my mind." Do you agree with this view?
11·3 days agoNo. Just because I’m uneducated about something or not intelligent enough to convince someone else about something, it doesn’t mean I’m necessarily factually wrong or morally wrong about something.
The view I agree with is: If I can’t win an argument I should consider changing my mind.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is everything in your life the way you want it to be & you're comfortable & feel no angst?
1·3 days agoI get it and don’t get me wrong, I’ve considered it as a temporary solution. But I don’t think I could last for too long
I’ll be honest, my economics understanding is rudimentary so what I read makes little to no sense to me. I need an ELI5 version, not just a summary. I vote OK because I didn’t read anything outrageous, but should I fully understand the implications I may decide to change my mind. I don’t see much in the way of job security or job creation though, please correct me if I’m wrong. Job market is tough

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is evolution only affected by mortality and birth rate?
2·4 days agoThis will depend a lot on your conditions. To see a specific set of traits, you first need to isolate them completely. Over a couple of generations (ten maybe, maybe more or less depending on how many your bunch is) you will probably see they sort of look like they belong to the same family. Similar skin, similar hair shade, probably a certain range of eye color, etc. This is just the product of genes mixing and sort of homogenizing a bit over time.
Like someone mentioned, you could get a mutation, and if the mutation turns out to be either advantageous or simply dominant gene wise then you will eventually see it in most people.
Then finally you have adaptation by natural selection, and this will depend a lot on the type of pressure you subject this bunch of people to. Do they have access to electricity? Are they living completely in the dark? Any diseases affecting them or other creatures underground? Do they have access to space or is this limited? Food? You will likely see your surviving population becomes immune or resistant to underground pathogens, simply because those who can’t will die before reproducing. Similarly if you are short on nutrients or physical space, you will see them shrink over time. If your conditions are more extreme and they’re completely in the dark, you will probably have a population develop some sort of echolocation sense (and this shouldn’t take too long, blind people can develop this to a degree already), and their metabolism will adapt to a much lower vitamin D (unless they can acquire it from some abundant food source). Over an even longer period of time they will either lose their eyesight or if they have access to light (fire? A few narrow openings to the surface?) they will adapt to see much better in the dark. Those are the more obvious adaptations I can think of but there could be a lot more depending on so many factors.

2·4 days agoIt’s illegal to sleep in a car where I live. Also I have a job in retail so I need to shower regularly. I don’t want to think how I’ll manage my period or just toilet in general, I hate shitting in public toilets. I have a small car, not a van, and I’m not looking forward to switching to one. But thanks for the positive outlook
Would have been nicer to see the original then. I also count inconsistent fingers across panels

Thanks, googled it and it appears to be the case. I watched the movie partially a very, very long time ago and I completely forgot about this character
