Thousands of what? Paperclips? Rands? Handkerchiefs?

They don't change their gender. They recognise their gender, and sometimes change their body to match their gender.

Both. And it runs locally on your own machine, so it's entirely private and offline. You also have the option to connect to other people's computers if your hardware is bad.

He's not the only saying it, but he's right. The reason Labour won was because the Right was split. Its about time, the Left's been split for ages. Of course, even better would be proportional representation. Let's see if that ever happens.

I am very happy in a sense that Reform only got 5 seats, compared to the Greens 4 and Lib Dems 72, but combined, Lib Dems and Greens got about 15% of the vote, and Reform got 15% too. So it's clearly undemocratic. We got lucky this time, but it could easily have been the other way around.

Just to counterbalance some of the disagreement replies you've got - I agree with you, it's scary how many people are happy to be ageist, even when they're so progressive on other forms of equality. If you can control people based on how long they've been alive, that's very dangerous in several ways, both to the people who's autonomy is being stolen, and to others who it sets a precedent for.

With Krita and it's AI Image Generation plugin, it provides a really nice interface for img2img where you can select the area in about 4 different ways, or the whole image, easily change the strength, prompt and negative prompt, select a predefined style or create your own. It's very flexible and intuitive.

Yeah, the fact that out payment system is so centralised is definitely a bad thing. But GNU Taler, from what I understand, is just trying to work within that system. It didn't create the system, and it doesn't have the power to replace it.

It would really be the Earth staying still. If the sun stayed still relative to the galactic centre, we would still have daylight cycle on Earth, and probably wouldn't notice that the sun's orbit of the galactic centre had been paused by a few Earth hours.

No reason to assume it will take a very long time to happen. Its best to take it as a serious threat, unless you want extremely rapid climate change.

Also, you didn't address the fact that my comment addressed the second part of your original comment too. Do you accept the correction?

Isn't that just force shutdown, which is usually a long press of the power button?

When I was a Brit in school my teachers would often say to me 'take your hands out of your pockets while speaking to me!', so its more an etiquette thing rather than being rude, I'd say.
