What you call "Islamic Arabs" makes no sense. They are as native as the Jewish people. Mostly because they're nor more or less "Arab" than the Jewish people. Religion is what separates them, not race. Also, your argument ignores time. Even it it were true, for how many centuries have these "Islamic Arabs" been there? Why are they any less "from there" than Jewish people?
Not OP of your answer, but I'm happy with my life. Still, I can't value humanity much when we're living the fastest extinction even ever because of, well, humanity. And we won't fix it. I'm happy because none of these silly "issues" like AI will matter one iota in a couple of decades.
I'm average looking, and I've dated and "been" with many women. I'm not even tall (I'm relatively short, in fact, shorter than some women I've been with), nor rich. I should have terrible self esteem, but I don't. That, plus being social and kind to others (and maybe a bit funny) really helps. A lot more than looks alone or money.
Posts like the OP are just incels pushing an agenda.
Weird, incel vibes from this post. "Body count" is incredibly disrespectful, amongst other things because it seems to only be used with women. Also, browsing the website I found that this person believes an Elon Musk monarchy would be great.
On a different note. I'm average looking, of average to short stature and have a decent job but I'm far from rich (but I'm frugal so I look poorer than I am). I haven't for a while but I used Tinder extensively for about two years. I met over ten women and dated for a while two in that period. Without being obsessed with the app.
What I mean is, while the dating app landscape is generally unfair to men (mostly our own fault, most men will "like" everything without even looking) it's not as bad as some incels online would let you believe. And hey, if apps don't work, try the old school method of going out. It really works.
I'm not sure calling the collapse of the AMOC a "questionable idea regarding a hypothetical event that's not even remotely shown itself in actual measurement" maps with reality. Scientists have been dumping data to models and for a few years this possiblity has gone from unlikely to "it could happen within the next 5 to 10 years".
Look at Canada or Russia and you see what will happen. It will be too cold to grow most crops as well as today, but it wont be another ice age, humans will still survive in the area albeit you might need a bit more energy to heat your homes and food will be blander or rely on imports (food diversity coming from imports wouldn't be very different from today though...).
Climate change ensures no ice age will happen again for millions of years, the ice age happened since earth was extremely low on Co2 it wont happen at the rates we have now.
That last sentence feels like a personal attack. I'm not sure why this is so important to you. You write about recorded history, but there is a vast majority of humans who has never written or at least not about food, so I don't know, maybe food hasn't always been important for everyone, we don't really know.
Nowadays, we also have the stress of a capitalist system to deal with, plus processed food we eat since our childhood, which for a lot of people "break" food for them, since they get used to the sugar rush, and normal food tasted "boring" or "bland".
What I mean is, I know plenty of well adjusted people who don't enjoy "good food", and that's OK.
I probably didn't word it that well; I meant that if you don't enjoy eating food that you like the taste of, there's something wrong with you. It's a normal human thing to like to eat, and to eat things you think are tasty. Unfortunately, modern low-quality unhealthy foods are engineered to be tasty, but this doesn't mean there's something seriously wrong with people who like them. I didn't mean "good food" as only high-quality, nutritious food, just something you like to eat and enjoy eating, even if it isn't that healthy.
The people who really have something wrong with them here are those who actually don't enjoy eating any food, and see it strictly as a biologically-necessary chore. Those are the people who seem to be attracted to Soylent. Yes, I really do think there's something wrong with these people.
> Those are the people who seem to be attracted to Soylent.
Maybe if you're only eating Soylent but the vast majority are simply people who don't want to cook for one reason or another. I eat Huel a few times a week and I really like it. I also think it's pretty tasty but most of all it's convenient.
It’s died down a bit now, but 5-10 years ago there was a very vocal group of people that insisted on only having shakes and that food/cooking was outdated.
Yeah, I'm not talking about people who just want something convenient and nutritious when they're in a hurry, I'm talking about extremists who genuinely don't like eating anything ever and treat it like needing to use a toilet.
"I don't fit in a generalisation therefore that generalisation is not true". At the same time, not sure we have the data to back up the original argument. Personal anecdata? People around do expect to find everything all year round, and they get mad if they don't.
What are you supposed to say if you read a statement that includes you in a group you don't belong? That's why it's important to be more precise instead of saying "customers" in general.
It’s obviously a generalization. If you don’t fit that description then they’re obviously not talking about you therefore nothing has to be done. Why would you have to say anything anyways? Who are you?
"personal anecdata" or not, what he is saying is market demand. If you offer cavendish that taste like mashed potatoes, you won't see that persons money. Mine neither. Fact.
This website has existed for a while. I know some of the examples to be real. When it comes to names, I think they've explained the origin in some cases. There's a log of the changes they've made over time.
I wonder if MEGA65 could allow for a Gopher and/or Gemini browser, since these are much simpler than web browsers. I always wonder why certain platforms, specially young alternative operating systems, don't focus first on a browser for these alternative protocols and then focus on creating a web browser than at least can render well things like Wikipedia and some basic news sites.
