- Comment on Am I weird for avoiding flying on prop planes, and only fly on jets? 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like your basing this on a new tech vs. old tech? Not looking at safety rates?
You can achieve airspeed at 35 mph in a small enough craft. A propeller plane is simply slower. Airplanes as a whole are extremely safe.

- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Are we only comparing the best of the best in each? Because both can be great in their best form.
But if I had to pick one and lose the other, for the good of society, I can’t imagine the videos are helping more than the written word is helping.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Videos can be misleading, unhelpful, and fail to paint the whole picture. Look no further than the society we live in today, where loads of fake videos get pumped out and then we need written articles to explain all the things wrong with the video.
Obviously fake info can be written down too, but we have a much bigger problem with fake videos.

- Comment on Dreams are extremely forgettable because the plot is flimsy, the dialogue is uninspired, and the acting is lifeless. 1 month ago:
It’s what your brain is thinking about during your rest state. If your dreams are frantic, frighting, memorable; you’re not resting. If you dreams are forgettable, you’re probably resting well.

- Comment on Even the U.S. Government Says AI Requires Massive Amounts of Water 2 months ago:
It’s not a sealed system like a personal computer uses. They’re on a huge huge scale. They use evaporation / cooling towers. But those lose a certain amount of water to evaporation which needs to be replaced regularly.

- Comment on OpenAI's move to allow generating "Ghibly stlye" images isn't just a cute PR stunt. It is an expression of dominance and the will to reject and refuse democratic values. It is a display of power 2 months ago:
If Disney can’t sue for this, then what exactly would be too far? We’re a few steps from being able to animate our own movies in Disney style.

I don’t think they mean they’re spending $250. Like they feel the need to earn $250 every working day, otherwise they can’t pay rent or whatever. Equates to an income of $65k.
