It’s just the limit, like German’s autobahn…

Only that they give you the mere gesture of a carrot: the american “dream”.

Get out of bed, wokies!!

There’s no linear path to progress, many of your questions perhaps would make no sense under that scenario. But I like your prompt.

I am thinking of a world where there was no centuries of slavery in the west. So no imperial power in Europe or North america. So, probably a ver bleak situation in Europe. Also, no chocolate, coffee, corn!!, or potatoes…

Meanwhile if the Americas and its people would continue on their own, probably the Incas would have expanded more or just live in constant war with Mesoamericans… Maybe the latter would have expanded north…

And their technology may have “advanced” toward an integral way of living conneted to nature instead of the highly optimized exploitation and demeaning that Illuminism wrote on our frontal lobes as the maximal case of success

I like these thoughts. Not a writer myself, but I can see some novel saga growing in this alternate timeline…

Speaking of the Mayas, check out EZLN. I was at Zapatista’s schools in the high mountains of Chiapas and it was amazing to me seeing how they live there and how they reference themselves, individually, as inheritors of Mayan culture…

Ironically, the artist was close to draw a perfect camel toe hahaha

AFAIK, the problem is that we don’t even know with certsinty the shape of the universe. Let alone find out anything outside our own cosmos…

Indeed, I think they might be good for sprinting (and jumps!), not the usual long distance running

This. (Offline too.)

Which generation did we really taught critical thinking to? In general, those “thinkers” or people with nice research skills (e.g. reading comprehension and other traits) were always a minority within each generation. And I agree there will be less now with AI. But we have no polls or measurement, so the title goes a little clickbaity, in resonance to the generalized discomfort towards a new technology that schools haven’t accomodated yet (e.g. all kind of solutions are seen in the wild)

I reckon it was the same with arithmetislcs and calculators in the past. We were able to deal with that! (so that whatever proportion of people that graduates knowing arithmetics with each generation didn’t shrink “too much”.)

If we are considering possible scenarios, let’s be optimistic too.

AI (discounting other problems like their ecological footprint) may not be that bad on our educational systems once we adjust…

“Martin Fierro” by Jose Hernandez. Me and all my classmates thought it would be the most boring book. We were surprised. And it was full of teachings for soon-to-be adults.

A sailor once told me the anchor tattoo represented their will to end up in the bottom of the sea if he ever drowned or their ship sinked. This was because, as he put it, the other option would be having their family members see his body in terrible shape.

This person tended to tell exagerated stories, but still… I was young and believed it ever since. Can any other people confirm they heard the same? I would like to know :)

Obviously “Cats”

Edit; if there was a “Crabs” musical then that one.

On average every 5 years. The battery life is always the issue. I will get a fairphone next time…

Precisely! One has to look also for the wheels. She was turning away off him. Also, if he really felt threatened he would have first move to the side, not concerning himself with shooting. Everyone knows a bullet won’t stop a car. And, secondly, to stop the car you would aim to the wheels probably but no officer did it… They were all concerned with terroricing the population and that’s the reason behind this MURDER. Fuck nazis and pedophiles’ apologists.

F*ck those nazi apologists. Instead of framework rather get a linux laptop e.g. starlabs. Oh, repairability… Yeah, it hurts me too.

That would be great answer. Make them retract their paper!! Science & revenge, my two favorite things to have in this cruel world :')

Ah, never looked into the numbers of this second presidency. I guess that bullet he “dodged” did give him an unexpected appeal… Sad.

Oh wow, may I also do this anymore? Yay!

Depends on how you want take it… I don’t believe the commenters refer really to people, they might be more like targeting Institutions (e.g. British Museum)… It all depends on the sensibility of the reader (like many arguments on the Internet)

I don’t like those projects either. Scuttlebut and cjdns looked more “profesional” to my ignorant eyes. I bring these up because I’d like to hear your comments. I will check 10fingers now…

Who elected them? It’s no democracy when the votes have a weighting factor to make iliterate votes from rural areas more important.
