Reply to AI is accelerating the loss of individuality in the same way that mass production and consumerism replaced craftsmanship and originality in the 20th century. But perhaps there’s a silver lining. by SpinCharm
I swear all these rants against AI are written by AI and posted as a joke. It's kind of funny for a bit. I would argue with the above premise but it's stupid to argue with AI and whatever happens is, in hindsight, inevitable. AI is not the problem. I would not mind seeing a constant stream of big budget Marvel movies made cheaply with AI. Plus, it's time we face the fact that most of these plaintive singer song writers sound alike.
The problem is climate change, wealth inequality, and racism. AI can not replace hanging out with friends/family, and playing with animals, which is what we have always done.

Reply to Discovery of 4,500-year-old palace in Iraq may hold key to ancient civilisation | Archaeology by JesseBricks
So many of these ancient sites are in now inhabitable places. It seems like the story of ancient civilization is a story of climate change and technological development.

The luxury part is not a significant cost unless it's location just like luxury pick up trucks. It's the sugar coating.

If I make it to work on my bike I’ll say, I didn’t die today. Because most days it seems pretty easy to die on Philly streets.

Yeah I got the elevator music vibe as well. Very blah. Could be on an old tv show.

While sitting in a comfortable chair. It’s warm. They just have to move their feet and hands a little bit. Why is it so hard to stop?

Reply to comment by abjennifleur in Diets with low potassium are associated with kidney injuries and a culprit in cardiovascular disease by giuliomagnifico
Lisinopril for high blood pressure can aggravate hyperkalemia (high potassium). But then, it turned out I was eating a very high potassium diet; lots of chicken, broccoli, bananas, and nuts. I cut out bananas. My cardiologist was funny, he said, "You got to eat brocolli, right? Its good for you." and told me to drink more water before the blood test and in general. Mine was on the edge of being high.

Certain drugs that treat high blood pressure can cause the body to retain potassium so it's necessary to have a low potassium diet.

Reply to comment by Dissenting_voice in What High Tech and Media Layoffs Say About the Economy by PleaseThinkFirst
For a while they were idolizing failure, writing articles about how much they learned by failing, even TED talks about the benefits of failure. But not one of them lost their own money. Nobody lost a house. All of it was other people’s money. It’s easy to think you’re a genius when the money is so stupid. Tech bros are a pretty arrogant lot, very similar to young Wall Street bros.

I had a thought the other day that might be completely wrong. In terms of CO2 production maybe plastics aren't that bad. Better to make something durable out of oil than to burn it. But then there is all the plastic waste and micro plastics everywhere.

Is it unpermitted basement excavations or builders with permits that are causing the problems? If it's unpermitted work you might have to get inspectors out there on the weekend.

People buy Mercedes rather than Accords all the time and there aren’t articles wondering if it’s worth it. The $20k solar install is worth a heck of a lot more than the Mercedes emblem.

As someone who has done this, it doesn’t cost $50k. My 20 300w panel system cost $18,600 before rebates. $3/watt was typical a few years ago.

Reply to Any context other than it’s really cold? Peco asking for electricity conservation. by Unlucky-External5648
Prices for natural gas on the spot market have quadrupled this weekend. Given that a lot of our electricity is generated by natural gas it costs the electricity makers a lot more to generate. Electric prices are regulated, Gas prices are not. Generators are losing money for every kilowatt you use. "Please conserve"

Reply to This sounds crazy but as of yesterday, we are less than 5 months away from the PA primary and the winner of the mayoral race will be the 100th mayor of the city of Philadelphia.
