She will want to do things that he’s not capable of due to his age.

The fuck…? He’s 48… Not 100 years old. What do you think a 48-year-old is like?

Did you even read the article you linked? It literally argues against your point.

The literal first sentence of the article is:

Contrary to myth, the sale of Ben & Jerry’s to corporate giant Unilever wasn’t legally required.

And further down:

This article aims to dispel the idée fixe that corporate law compelled Ben & Jerry’s directors to accept Unilever’s rich offer, overwhelming Cohen and Greenfield’s dogged efforts to maintain the company’s social mission and independence.

Yet in the end, Ben & Jerry’s directors chose to accept a generous offer, even at a cost to the social mission, rather than allow the company’s defenses to be tested. Anti-takeover protections are only as effective as the people positioned to use them.

This feels like PR bullshit to make people feel like AI isn’t all that bad. Assuming what they’re releasing is even true. Not like cigarette, oil, or sugar companies ever lied or anything and put out false studies and misleading data.

However, there are still details that the company isn’t sharing in this report. One major question mark is the total number of queries that Gemini gets each day, which would allow estimates of the AI tool’s total energy demand.

Why wouldn’t they release this. Even if each query uses minimal energy, but there are countless of them a day, it would mean a huge use of energy.

Which is probably what’s happening and why they’re not releasing that number.

See, human beings are really a lot of tubes. And all living creatures are just tubes. And these tubes have to put things in at one end and let it out at the other.

Then they get clever about it and they develop nerve ganglia on one end of the tube—the eating end—called a head. And that’s got eyes in it, it’s got ears in it, it’s got little organs—antennae and things like this—and that helps you to find things to put in one end so that you can let them out the other.

Well, while you’re doing this, you see, the stuff going through wears the tube out. And so that the show can go on the tubes have complicated ways of making other tubes, who go on doing the same thing. In at one end, out the other. And they say, “Well, that’s terribly serious! That’s awfully important; we’ve got to keep on doing this.”

This was a study on mice using a running wheel and how their brains changed, which they then compared to human brain tissue from people who had Alzheimer.

I’m sure running helps, but the headline is a bit sensationalized.

The whole body doesn’t match. Those must be some stupid-ass aliens.

They’re already at citizens. They wanna ship them to El Salvador. You gotta keep up!!

If you’re looking for a serious answer, not at all. Snacking all day is the opposite of fasting. Just because it’s small doesn’t mean it’s not food.

If he actually didn’t eat all day and then had a huge meal at night, that would be it. That would also be called OMAD (one meal a day), which is a type of intermittent fasting.

If only lemmy posts showed up on search engines, reddit would be finished.

Putin wins.

Jesus fuck… These fucking people are so fucking weak. It’s pathetic.

Grow some fucking balls. This was the moment to unite Europe and the free world with Ukraine, but these guys are so feckless.

How is a one-month truce gonna prove anything? You can’t trust anything Putin says or Trump. Get that into your fucking skulls.

It’s fucking incredible how people learn nothing from history.

These two idiots, Trump and Putin, only respond to strength, not this weak wishy-washy “let’s give it a month just to see” shit.

Europe and Canada should be having a field day recruiting disgruntled employees.

The brain-drain is going to be serious in the US in the coming years if there is no civil war or world war.

People are being bombarded with low quality information and disinformation.

They get their news from people like Joe Rogan, tik tok, Facebook, twitter, and their other stupid friends.

While the “good” people are trying to share quality information (truth), which takes time and effort, the “bad” people just straight up lie. So they can flood all these channels with their lies, and people just eat it up.

What’s astonishing is that the governments are just letting all this happen. Just letting these tech companies peddle all these lies without any pushback.

Only Brazil seems to be actually doing something about Twitter and Musk, for example. Why haven’t other countries cracked down on Musk? It’s baffling…

Yes, you can actually “brainwash” yourself this way. Every time you remember something, you’re basically rewriting the memory into your brain. So every time you remember something, it becomes less reliable as it has more chances of being corrupted by new information.

So if you remember a childhood memory, then for some reason you add a detail that wasn’t there before, that’s the new memory.

Example: you remember going to the zoo as a kid, and you remember seeing a monkey. Then your mom shows you a photo album of your trip to the zoo, and in it, there’s a picture of you watching a lion.

Next time you remember that trip to the zoo, you’ll probably remember seeing a lion too, even though originally you didn’t at all.

Memory is incredibly unreliable.

ABC paid $15 million, as far as I know CBS hasn’t paid anything yet.

Have you tried an image search lately? It’s fucking terrible. It’s all AI generated crap. They need a filter to filter out any AI generated image.

Piracy is the best thing that happened to anime. Without it, anime and Japan wouldn’t be nearly as popular.

They’re shooting themselves on the foot. People discover anime and manga through piracy, and then if they love it, they end up spending money on it.

Just look at Berserk. I bet 90% of people who spent money on the mangas and all the deluxe editions discovered it through “illegal” means.

He’s kind of right, though. The story originally broke on October 18, and look at the dates of the links from your news articles. It’s all end of November. So it took them over a month to get on it.

It should have been national news on every tv station as it happened, not a small article a month later. Especially since we have a 24-hour news cycle.
