  • Trump says he will declare Strait of Hormuz a US territory

  • Trump says he will declare Strait of Hormuz a US territory

    Jump

  • Yes.

    There is significant difference between the US' annexation of Hawaii and the fiascos of Russia annexing and then losing e.g. Kherson, or Trump claiming sovereignty over a piece of land he probably couldn't even control for a day, let alone keep indefinitely.

    Edit: sry for the overly sarcastic tone before.

  • Somebody tell this 🤡 (and Putin too) that annexations can happen after a war, not during. If you try to do reichskommissariats before the end of the war, you're in shitty company and people will take you less seriously.

  • Yea, on a second read, I could've picked a better word there 😆

    What is these Flock cameras?

  • That's true, I was there, saw the whole thing ☝️

  • The Heimlich. I'd never thought I'd ever use it. But just a few weeks ago, we got some dürüms (kebab in a flatbread wrap) and at one point I hear her going strangely silent and wheezing. I lifted her up and gave her the maneuver. She spat out a large thing of unchewed salad, for which I chewed her out for a bit.

    Ffs, can't imagine if she'd died in my living room...

  • What others failed to mention: Flock cameras are full of gold, silver, and RAM. They're like free lootboxes scattered all over.

  • Because everything else is enshittifying at an increasing rate. News at 10.

    Nah, seriously, I remember a time when Macs were considered ultra-reliable ("it just works"), and now when I look at those of my team developing on Macs... jfc it's a Soulslike level of hell.

    Simple as.

  • In a genderless and sexless society, what would pronouns be based on?

    Jump

  • Nothing above Turing-completeness (if even that) is strictly necessary. But as OP had pointed out in other comments, pronouns have a practical use.

  • In a genderless and sexless society, what would pronouns be based on?

    Jump

  • Nah, it's just a single differentiation between people and non-persons, e.g. him vs that.

    There are gender-free languages that still make this distinction, e.g. Hungarian ő vs az.

    To add to the subject of complexity, in English you have 3 genders, 2 numbers (singular/plural), and 4 cases, totalling a maximum of 24 pronouns. A gender-free language would just set the first factor to 1. Adding differentiation by e.g. status would increment (in cases of there being one extra formal gender for the 3rd person) or multiply it (when there are different versions for all pronouns).

  • In a genderless and sexless society, what would pronouns be based on?

    Jump

  • This question has a false premise and thus makes no sense.

    Many natural languages are already genderless, so your question is equivalent to: "In genderless and sexless languages, what are pronouns based on?", implying that there has to be some sort of gender-based polymorphism among pronouns.

  • Are we offloading too much of our thinking to AI?

    Jump

  • I'm not.

  • If pieces of a haunted house are all replaced ship of Theseus style, would the ghosts go away?

    Jump

  • No. Ghosts are bound by contract to the screening shooting location, not the props.
