I think he was supposed to be ejected in that pose?

You missed the jo…

Me too

This has always been strange to me. I’m assuming you live in North America. The honey bee is not native here. They are therefore an invasive species, but one that even environmentalists are fine with.

I don’t know enough about the whole thing to have an opinion different than the norm, so I support you providing a habitat for honey bees. It just confuses me.

All honey bees are nectarivorous pollinators native to mainland Afro-Eurasia,[13][14] but human migrations and colonizations to the New World since the Age of Discovery have been responsible for the introduction of multiple subspecies of the western honey bee into South America (early 16th century), North America (early 17th century) and Australia (early 19th century), resulting in the current cosmopolitan distribution of honey bees in all continents except Antarctica.[13]

It’s even more bleak than that. Politically, the bargaining power of the masses is from the labor they contribute. As soon as the need of human labor is gone, there is absolutely no reason for those with power to heed the will of the populus. You can say open revolt, but if we’re talking a situation where any significant portion of the military is automated, uprisings are no longer a concern.

Are those figures revenue or profit?

Excellent write up. Appreciate your time!

I have a system dynamics question! Maybe you could point me in the right direction? If I have the system response to a step input, what is the simplist way to derive the transfer function? I’ve only ever learned how to use a system to do modeling, not how to reverse engineer the model.

I loved mushrooms and acid, salvia was terrible. It’s super short and super intense. You may think “well it’s just 5 minutes” but it will not feel like 5 min. If you’re looking to expand your mind, mushrooms and acid are great. If you want to slice your brain in half and put the two halves in two separate dimensions with no personal introspection to speak of, try salvia.

He looks like Creedy from V for Vendetta.

This is meta, a democratic structure in the military of the democratic nation fighting authoritarianism.

This is not true. Northern cities are still extremely segregated. We say it’s because of economics now, but it’s effectively segregation. The underlying causes of the economic disperity largely remain in place also.

It’s also written by people in an agrarian culture so different than our culture today. The fact that it is still relevant at all is amazing. Like this is around the time germ theory was first proposed. Imagine if we still relied on a single document as the guiding principle for medicine established before germ theory was widely accepted.

There are faults with the founding fathers and their documents, but it amazes me how well the constitution has endured, not as an important document, but as a relevant document addressing issues we have today.

Bottom right corner ok? Could use a face down there.

Lemmy does seem to have some insular thinking (just like all social media communities). Feels like you can actually have discussion and at least learn why people hold those views instead of just being chastised.

That feels like the government placing limits on the rights of corporations to express political views, which SCOTUS has stated is illegal (if you define speech as campaign contributions, which it does).
