“Why are women less bullish overall on AI than men” is not actually that mysterious of a question

Witnessing this in real time feels monumental

THE SAN ANTONIO SPURS HAVE THE MANDATE OF HEAVEN

hey so lots going on i know but this right here is a whole fucking slow motion ongoing tragedy

god i love sports

People actually talk about using threads lately and it gives me full-body cringe ngl

There’s people in this world who are looking at a beautiful 3 day weekend and deciding to see “The Mandolorian and Grogu”

someone was explaining Chinese labor law on reddit the other day w/ this and I had to screenshot it because it just seems so totally unreal

What is the whole odyssey if not a penelope cruise

Guys. The Ancient Greeks weren't white. They were more like cephalopods than modern humans -- their skin was bioluminescent and constantly shifting its color. And they didn't live in in idyllic seaside villages; they could only survive near deep-ocean vents. They DID have Matt Damon accents, though

your doorknob doesnt need to know what thundercats is, though pkd knew it would

I have been sick to my stomach thinking about this satisfactory build for hours now reddit.com/r/Satisfacto...

Sometimes I get really mad at the people of the late 20th century for being too chickenshit to commit to fission power when there was time and money for those projects. It’s only not a viable answer to climate change on its own because of the lead time and cost of getting facilities running

Naturally I’m sure these won’t be going in any of the municipalities around the country where we get told to turn our AC down in the summer to avoid blackouts

The thing I love about letters is that you get an authentic look inside people's lives from thousands of years ago, and what you see is that people are still people. Like Bahianu here, who is too scared to ask a woman out that he likes, so he asks the governor of Nippur to ask her for him instead.

Y’all really shouldnt skip this essay (or anything at Stop Caring). It really gets at multiple reasons why BF6 and other milsims can’t, or are unwilling to, simulate modern war, and that one of those reasons is that to do so would reveal tha war isnt fun!

Game devs: have you ever worked, in any capacity, on the Super Mega Baseball series? One of my favourite sports series of all time and I'd love to speak to you for an article I'm working on. Any shares appreciated! #gamedev #indiegame

incredible and shameful there isn’t international condemnation of the united states for collective punishment of 10 million people

There are approximately 2.8 million trans people in the US. That means FOURTEEN PERCENT of American trans people have moved across state lines in the past 18 months.

boycotts work. anyone stating otherwise is spreading state & corp sanctioned propoganda

dusting off a classic

this absolute king has been goofing off on the Internet for longer than most of you have been alive 🫡🫡🫡

the trans girl advice I wish I'd gotten early: if you bite your nails, go get some nice gels. Nothing in my life, not the bad-tasting polish, not CBT, has ever stopped me biting them, but if I get nice gels: 1) they *feel* different and I notice I'm biting 2) I feel bad about damaging them

You are a skilful and trusted vizier. You will advise me wisely on how best to rule the kingdom. You will not scheme or plot. You will not inveigle my other courtiers into turning against me. You will not lie to me about scheming or plotting. If you scheme or plot against me, you have to tell me,

The Strike Zone Is Shrinking. Here’s How. blogs.fangraphs.com/the-strike-z...

A researcher in a group chat I'm in managed to pull some data from the shooter's account out of the firehose. These were some of his engagements over the last month. As I said earlier he was very much a lurker, mostly just resharing and liking, commenting very rarely.

NEW: Is Natasha Cloud unsigned because of her politics? Maybe. But are there way more likely reasons that she isn’t currently on a W roster? Yes, absolutely.

The girls are rereading this through Keith haring tonight and not so much eating as sobbing but

Can any #egyptologist help me identify this figure? The ROM says it is Thutmose III, but the cartouche fragment at the top right looks more like the one used by Hatshepsut, and I've seen the very same relief identified as her! #egypt

Screaming

I’m incredibly frustrated by the narrative that Natasha Cloud isn’t on a roster because of her activism. It’s taken off & been spread by huge influencer accounts & there’s just no evidence to support it. There are real, basketball-related reasons for Cloud to be unsigned rn.

Sanitation workers at Coachella dropped what they were doing to watch Karol G close out the festival. Incredible energy in that performance

Is it ever not one of those days

BREAKING: Maryland is about to become the first state in the nation to ban the use of surveillance data and dynamic pricing at grocery stores. The Maryland House has just passed the Protection from Predatory Pricing Act. Governor Wes Moore plans to sign the bill.

Been playing Astro Colony for a few days and it’s very fun. Multiplayer is pretty buggy but I can’t really be that mad because the fact that the game runs at all is preposterous. What do you mean you have a full satisfactory factory and can fly it around space and dock it???? store.steampowered.com

Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd going back to back No. 1 to the same team is a storyline that, if I didn't know it actually happened, I would have thought was the plot of a queer romcom written by a white man

the WNBA is so unbelievably entertaining, imagine not loving this league

DONE

It's extremely hard to look at what you've managed to set aside for yourself and your family playing honestly and then look at how well grifters appear to be doing and not feel like you were a rube for believing the crap you were taught about citizenship in school.

maybe people have been talking about this, but i haven't been seeing it discussed much on here; i would really like to see an investigation into whoever at apple was involved in the decision to erase villages from southern lebanon in apple maps recently.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

i’m not being mean or anything like congrats to everyone but i met one of these women and how poor and ruined her life was after she freshly fled in her car. her nerves were shot. she’s one of the people that made this possible, and she’s forgotten and unheard from

The quickness with which I sent this to my friend whose discord display name was “thomas nagel is a little bitch” for like six months

As an aside US missiles need ammonium perchlorate. The only domestic source is a facility in Cedar City, Utah US missiles also need RDX & HMX. The only domestic source is a facility in Kingsport, Tennessee US missiles also need engines. The only domestic source is a facility in Pontiac, Michigan

This is going around from a planespotter in UK ~40 minutes ago. Just to pre-bunk some things: - The cruise missiles on the pylons are JASSMs (conventional-only), not AGM-86 (nuclear-only). - AGM-86 is a good deal longer (thus not two rows in line), and different livery <more>
