Our short lived civilizations and their survival, and our much much shorter lives and the lives of our direct descendants, can't be stretched to fit into geological timescales. So I'm not really seeing the point you're trying to make if there even is one.

Thanks for the clarification. I'm now considering getting a gay agenda of my own, complete with its trusted clipboard. The idea of having at all times something sparkly in my backpack to bash unrelenting dickheads with soothes me.

So uh...do you take your gay agenda with you everywhere you go in a little backpack or do you leave it at home on your desk? What color is it and how much more fabulous is it compared to other regular, boring agendas?

I need to learn some robust self-calming techniques or actively practice meditation everyday if I want to survive this presidency with some level of sanity left. And I don't even live in the same continent as you fuckers.

I'm not Canadian, but it's seems obvious to me Canada would definitely put up a fight

I'm assuming Kim Jong-Un will be the guest of honor to this not-the-birthday-boy military parade?

Why...? Did you look at a geopolitical map of Europe during that period? If you did you'd act less surprised that the commander of the NATO forces of central Europe happens to often be a high ranking officer from central Europe. Germany specifically, the very country cut in half between west and east alignment and the epicenter of a lot of cold war shit, and not from Italy or Belgium or Denmark which are not located in Central Europe. Give the tankie conspiracies a rest.

Wearing an oldie watch made in 1988 with a pulsometer on the dial. Love the beaten old thing.

Right. Do you feel like I need to justify myself about my life choices to express criticism and a bad opinion about generative IA?

Generative IA is still a huge increasing drain on environnemental resources no matter how much of a hypocrite I may or may not be. I'm not knowledgeable but I assume that models run locally still have to be trained on huge amounts of data before being deployed.

And this image is still shit: it wasn't produced by a human mind and it is completely tone-deaf. I can't tell if the portrayal of the character tries to go for "heroic" or "ridicule". It could be made by an anti trump viewpoint as well as a pro trump one, it's just that bad.

IA models are still useless as answer boxes as they are unreliable and prone to "hallucinations". Regarding content creation I think I they are an insult to the very concept of creativity, and the people using it for that purpose are polluters of creative spaces. So yeah, I do hate IA, very much and very openly. I just wasn't aware I had to show some sort of credentials before being allowed to say something about it.

Can't believe you felt the need to use an indecent amount of water and electricity to power a request on a chatgpt server somewhere, just so you could make and share this shit. I fucking hate the reality we are all living in.

I heard the sarcasm cristal clear when I read it the first time

This is not about about the naturalization process, or about naturalized Estonian citizens, but foreign residents. In the EU, if you're not a national or EU citizen, you are not owed to vote in the local elections because you're a legal resident. Previously Russian and Belarusian resident were graciously allowed to vote, and now this privilege will be rescinded. So I wouldn't say it's nationalist jingoism but common sense, Russia is actively engaged in hybrid warfare with the EU, and countries with a shared border are worried enough about illegal crossing from russian agent, so Estonia doesn't need to grant special privilege to foreign citizens from a hostile country so they can mess with their local elections.
