Is that what Republicans mean when they say “Think of the children?”

Article updated to say that an appeals court has overturned that ruling, so Trump ca still control them for now, unfortunately.

Yeah, good point. I can’t think of anything I had as a kid that would be drastically improved with modern batteries, but for sure cordless power tools are a big change. I have a cordless electric chainsaw - that wouldn’t have been feasible in the 70s.

Are batteries that much different? I was born in the early 60s, and the batteries my toys used seemed like the same AAA, AA, C, and D batteries we use mostly today. I think the key difference is that a lot of things take a lot less energy than they used to.

Thomas and Alito start with the ruling they want, then backfill some justification for it.

As always, Thomas and Alito have to demonstrate what pieces of crap they are.

A lot of people read the comments without having read the article, so for them here’s the bit you’re taking about:

At one point, attorneys had to admit to Reyes that they had never read articles which were included as evidence. Reyes then said they had “cherry picked” and “egregiously misquoted” studies put forward by the Pentagon on transgender people decreasing the lethality of the military.

Everything also makes sense if viewed from the point of view of benefiting Russia.

Not only do I not miss it, I’m relieved that it’s not here.

Call BS? What he said is literally, explicitly true: If you click on the article, that’s the title of it. OP didn’t change the title to fit an agenda, he used the article’s title.

I’ve thought for many years that the first true cybernetics will be artificial eyes. If they can get self contained optic systems that fit into the eyeball space, it should be trivial to allow them to see a much wider spectrum, plus macro and telephoto. That would be cool. A computer interface for them would be awesome, but I’d have trust issues with that as well.

There’s a saying, something like “When you’re used to privilege, equality feels like oppression.” It’s the same with white folks who feel like it’s a big deal when there’s more than a token POC in something. It must be DEI, right?

I’m a straight, white, middle class male, but I’m fully aware that my life experience is much different from so many other peoples’. And I’ve never understood why some people feel like it takes away from them when someone else gets something, like the straight folks who feel like it takes away from straight marriage if gay folks can marry.

People are weird.

Need to keep this up. Not that, in itself, it accomplished anything, but staying silent legitimizes this bullshit.

Hey, yeah, the alcoholic will just quit drinking, no big deal. He could totally stop anytime.

I generally consider “OC” to mean specifically that it’s original - you didn’t get it from someplace else, so broadly yes if you’re the one who had it generated.

But if it’s a community for art or photography generally, I don’t think AI art belongs there - the skills and talent required are just too different. I love AI art communities, I just think it’s a separate thing.
