Why does Michelin make tires but also is the main organization that gives out the most prestigious awards/ratings for restaurants?

Why does Hitachi make reliable industrial vehicles and also sex toys?

Why does Yamaha make motorcycles and jet skis but also pianos?

they are using generative AI for this. there is already porn in the internet.

strangely enough some people are probably into that

Also, in my state, all the drivers are the worst

I think the most extreme and consistent bipolar weather I’ve seen was in Nevada where during the night it’d get down to 30°F (-1°C) and then almost as soon as the sun came up the frost would evaporate as daytime temperatures rose to 113°F (45°C)

In terms of chaos, I’d say Utah takes the cake. Not just because it can go from snowing to 90°F weather and back repeatedly in a week, but because during those chaotic weeks you can drive less than an hour in any direction and find completely different weather.

If violence in the chaos is desired, the southern Midwest probably wins. Tornadoes and golf ball sized hail will fuck up your day and then everything is unbearably sunny again. The east is a close second since it gets wrecked by hurricanes occasionally, but less frequently than tornadoes hit the midwest

I doubt Californians think their state is bipolar. Same with other temperate states.

Have you ever solved a Rubik's Cube? And how?

I was able to solve the first two layers of the cube when I was around 5 (I found it in the toy chest at my grandmother’s and spent the entire trip working on it)

A long time later, in highschool, I bought one and tried to solve the whole thing myself. After a couple days I gave in and looked up how to do the last bit.

Once you learn the steps it’s hard to forget them and it’s surprisingly easy to generalize them for other sizes/shapes of cubes.

Should Scientists and Engineers Run Society?

Idk about “should” but I can tell you it might be hard to find willing ones

I’ve heard that there’s always a shortage of managers for mechanical engineering because companies want managers with engineering degrees but people with engineering degrees would rather not be managers.

Most engineers and scientists I know would love nothing more than to be able to forget about paperwork/managerial-work/human-interaction and focus solely on their projects/research.

Just pure vibes

I have a math brain; I do not, however, have a brain that can make plans or follow them consistently

I feel like the next 24-48hrs are gonna be insanity bad.

While the word “the” is pronounced with a long “e” sound in certain cases, the word you were looking for is spelled “thee” as in the objective case for the pronoun “thou”

Fuck the empire and those who spread their lies

Anarchy existed long before Noam Chomsky..? Also, full disclosure, I didn’t even know Noam Chomsky was associated with Anarchist thought. I only know his name since it comes up in linguistics (I’m not a linguist just ADHD and interested in conlangs)

Anyway, I don’t really see how anarchy can at all be libertarianism since the latter isn’t socialist..? Perhaps I’m just not familiar enough with modern libertarianism, but iirc libertarians tend to very strongly believe in private property and keeping businesses free from government regulation. Neither of which are beliefs shared by any anarchists I’ve ever met.

On the note of CIA control, isn’t the easiest method of controlling leftists trying to create division and separation between leftists because smaller groups cause less of a threat? And, if that’s the case, aren’t these anti-anarchist memes a form of that exact kind of control tactics?

Fuck the empire and those who spread their lies

I feel like I’ve been seeing lots of anti-anarchist shitposts lately. Is there some new Lemmy tea à la leftist-infighting that I’m unaware of? Or is it just typical rage bait from ml?

[Image] Lake beginning to freeze in Saskatchewan, Canada, mid-October (taken at 16,000 feet near Buffalo Narrows, SK)

Looks like a Turing Pattern so I’m guessing there are particles or ions in the water which affect its freezing point. The pure water freezes and rejects the ions, lowering the freezing point of the nearby water creating these banded freezing patterns.

Anyone knowledgeable enough to tell me if I’m right or wrong?

It should be a strict rule

Just abolish golf entirely, multiple problems would be solved at once

OpenAI has deleted the word ‘safely’ from its mission – and its new structure is a test for whether AI serves society or shareholders

There’s never been anything to test. A tool created for commercial purposes has never not been serving shareholder interests over society. And, those two interests are largely mutually exclusive.

smoooooth, in their lane, flourishing

There is life deep within the earth that will likely survive no matter what happens to the planet. The sun could fade, we could nuke the surface, have an asteroid completely resurface half the planet, and microbes will survive and eventually recolonize the entire world.

Not that we’d want a mass extinction of so many unique and beautiful things, but it is a comforting thought to realize we can’t really do anything that would render earth entirely devoid of life. And even if everything we know was lost, life would rise again to reclaim the rubble.
