The article is from May 19, 2022. I can find very little information about the vote of this Wednesday. While I don’t doubt its authenticity, I find it unlikely that it would pass. Last time they tried, doing it much more loudly and going as far as spreading disinformation campaigns on TV and in social media, they still completely failed at having the legislation passed. To me it looks like someone is finishing their mandate, so they are scrambling to show that they are doing the work they have been paid to do (by lobbist, obviously not by the people).

I hope I will not be proven wrong.

Thank you for doing what I was too lazy to do.

I agree that 4 random pills is the best choice, also it is not specified that you must consume them (so if you get something bad you just dump or sell it).

Was going to choose 1, then I noticed that it is “you get ears and tail” and now I’m like…

I already have ears will I get additional ears? Where will they be, and how they will be like?

So now I am lost pondering this important questions

Ok so maybe my calculation is off, but based on the specs in the article the battery on my phone would become 225x225x5 mm in size to be equivalent on the LiPo it currently has.

That seems way too big to be usable, and contrary to what the article says about this battery being more energy dense…

(Calculation is - 4385mAh x 5V = 21925mWh, so around 220 batteries as they output 100mW, and as they are 15x15x5 it becomes ✓220*15=~225 so 225x225x5)

Please someone smarter help me!

It looks promising, even though it is quite far away from becoming available to the general public.

Still I wish that there was more of a push for something like a contraceptive pill for men. It feels like it has been ignored for years and only now they are starting a bit with development and trials…

Nice article.

I feel though that, as many others, it compares the carbon footprint of production (panels and batteries) vs the footprint of burning only. By looking at the source of the carbon footprint, it seems that they take into account only the CO2 output of the energy factories, but extraction, transportation and storage has a non-negligible carbon footprint.

Ignoring the technology itself, I found it interesting that it has a lot less trouble with verbs compared to nouns (tho the article does not give much information about it).

Would it mean that humans keeps actions very separate (even if similar), while keeping things and concepts more clustered together? Is being precise on what is happening much more important than clearly specifying the subject and object of the action?

That sounds like hell. I already dread having to switch to winter time once per year, making it the standard one all year is miserable. I understand that it is more in line with the solar time, but my life (and that of many others) is definitely now. We simply live more in the evening, and that extra hour of sun lets you do much more stuff.

Also, another unintended consequence: here we call DST “legal time”. Removing it will make lots of dads helpless, since they won’t be anymore able to say once a year the joke “finally there is one legal thing in this country!”… Please European Commission, think of them!

Thank you!!

Thank you OP. From now on, to people they say AI generated images cannot be art, I will reply with the top left. It is pure poetry. A modern masterpiece.

+1 for Photopea. I found it extremely friendly coming from Photoshop, has a lot of functionalities and works great on computers where I can’t/won’t install Photoshop. YMMV though, since you want to use it as a full replacement and I used it only for simple retouching/modifications when I’m not on the desktop
