am i the only one who thinks “volta” sounds much much worse as a unit? Like, there’s a reason people say “amp” instead of “ampere”, we don’t like saying needlessly long words all the time.
Even if you change the official name i’m almost certain it’ll just get shortened back down.

there’s “advertisements” and then there’s “informing people that your product exists”. You do generally have to make people aware that you exist in order for them to buy your stuff.

Right, but a robot obviously isn’t sentient, so… Why are they calling it Buddhist? Are they going to dress up a laptop next? Maybe some power tools, or a car?

It’s just so utterly incompatible with the vast majority of supernatural beliefs, and it’s just another piece of evidence that makes me doubt that most people actually believe this stuff, because they don’t act like they genuinely believe it. They act like they’re doing things to be part of a group.

So like, do the people around the robot actually believe it’s religious?
Because this is the kind of thing that you’d think would deeply insult people who actually believe in their religion, acting like a robot can be religious completely defeats the point, it’s no different than putting a parrot on a podium and declaring them the new priest, as they screech their way through something that vaguely resembles a sermon.

I don’t see how people can actually believe their religion is true, yet tolerate this absolute nonsense!

what, precisely, is the downside of voting for a third party rather than not voting at all?

There’s a good swedish song (made by a kinda generic youtuber, of all things) which states it very clearly: If you don’t vote you have no right to complain. You don’t have to vote strategically, just vote for literally ANYTHING if you want the right to complain.

Even then, no one is going to be stopped from doing more because of No Kings, anyone who attends it and thinks they’re done has clearly done as much as they were ever going to do.

So apparently france has had similar rates of malnutrition deaths for years, and norway isn’t that far behind…
What the fuck?

plus it’s an excellent opportunity to make it distributed, which helps with both sharing the load and making sure the content isn’t altered.
Just do like peertube and have things downloadable both via http and via torrent, it’s not perfect but clearly i works.

what’s a better campaign than having your time in office be a constant stream of praise?

makes you wonder why companies selling AI services don’t just cut out the middleman and scam everyone directly

different causes: people are having less kids in the US because they’re living in misery, whereas in europe we’ve long had fewer kids because better education and less need to have 8 kids so one of them survives and can take care of you as you get old.

can you really not reject citizenships?

but like if this was true, surely i’d hear about it? i also a quick search doesn’t even show any sites that claim it as an aphrodisiac…

finns inhale licorice all the time and i can’t say i’ve ever heard of them being particularly raunchy

then again maybe it just brings them back up to a normal level, and that’s why they self-medicate with licorice…
