Partly at least, publicity.
Due to the way it came to be and its allegiances, Israel is generally treated as part of the "Western world", and is thus much more in the European and American spotlight.
Thus its absolute oppression and genocide of Palestinian people has a lot more Western eyes on it than the plight of the Kurds.
“That bonfire in the middle of the field that sees both sides, that understands that peace is not a lack of conflict. Peace is not a blank canvas that we need to guard and be polite. [Peace] holds enough beauty, enough tragedy, enough sorrow, enough joy and life if we learn how to integrate it and hold each other in balance. We will find a way through this together.”
What hell is this even meant to mean?!
True conflict free peace might just be impossible, wars in the middle east are nothing new, but putting your fingers in your ears screaming lalala over the sound of innocent people dying in a genocide is not peace dude.
Guy in the middle must have a splitting headache
In principle I do agree with you - ER care should absolutely prioritise the sickest individuals first, to ensure the least loss of life.
But I can only reconcile that in the case where you are not actively being charged for the privilege of waiting in line.
When everybody in that room is being charged hundreds of dollars for the privilege of suffering in line, then that philosophy can kindly fuck off. See the people who started paying first.
I mean I also believe you shouldn't be charged for access to emergency medical help at all (tax payer fund it) - but that's a non-sequitur
So in essence the price that the market will bare for the cost of AI usage is significantly lower than what the big AI companies would like it to be (in order to pay back their ever growing debts), which means there is a possibility they might never achieve profitability on their own (without some external/governmental strong-arming)
ER triage is driven by risk of death or serious harm, not by level of suffering
In a system of free healthcare services, I would expect patients with more severe outcomes to be treated first...
Hell if they were kind enough not to bill for the privilege of sitting in a waiting room for hours of suffering, then I might also accept that...
But in a system where I'm being billed hundreds of dollars just for the privilege of being triaged and sitting in your waiting room, you can kindly fuck off with that prioritisation bullshit and get to work on the people who came in first.
Every time I see this come up, I'm reminded of that one Achievement Hunter clip of
Basically any fast food. Within my lifetime fast food went from cheap end of week treat, to being a complete ripoff that's almost never worth shelling out for...
Which is weird cause the price of actual restaurants hasn't gone up as much during that time, so it now oftentimes makes more sense to just go to an actual restaurant where you'll (usually) get better food in better portions
Yeah. Shizuku enables the use of the Android Debugging Bridge internally to selectively enable root-like features, including one click installation outside of Google approved appstores
Oh damn, Fdroid 2.0 does look pretty nice - even if I'll miss the iconically out-dated aesthetic. That said:
The official client is not the only way to access F-Droid apps, but now you’ll have less reason to seek out an alternative.
For me that reason is Shizuku. Droidify supports that and gives me what Fdroid cannot, one click frictionless app installation. Until the day Fdroid can do that, I have no reason to go back.
There's an egg in a pan emoji??
What on Earth would you even need such a specific emoji for??
Perhaps the biggest fundamental problem with using AI like this - how can you know the programs it generates are truly clean-room replicas? Can you guarantee Anthropic never trained their AI on Adobe's suite or any of Adobe's code?
Also, if you're desperate to cut Adobe out of your life, why not use the open source tools that already exist and aren't at risk of being sued out of existence by Adobe
