Stoicism and botox.

Interesting, I've never seen architecture and engineering in a combined category

I just looked up what's in Montana.

Turns out that's where Malmstrom Air Force Base is, where Intercontinental Ballistic Missile silos are based. So... yeah.

Ok so apostrophes are used when two words are shortened into one or when showing possession.

Examples

• It is or it has = it's
• they are = they're
• one student's name

In your case, pepperoni is plural in Italian, but can be both singular and plural in English. If you do add s, it's pepperonis. No apostrophe.

Bottles of water cost $3-5 on the plane. Bring an empty bottle with you and refill it in a drinking fountain once you get past security.

Sandwiches are fine, but if you've ever felt jealous of the person next to you who ordered a fancy $20 snack box (like I was), bring a bento box of fruit, nuts, and babybel instead.

The movie trope where the hero destroys a technology is so funny to me. If the circumstances are right for something like AGI to be invented and you destroy it, it'll just be invented again by another company in the next few years. You can't stop progress, you can only write a bit of legislation to regulate it once it's out in the world.

Invention isn't a random chaotic event, it's the result of its environment. Newton and Leibniz both separately discovered calculus not due to a crazy kooky coincidence, but because in the generations prior, Barrow, Fermat, Pascal, and Descartes paved the way for it.

So there's absolutely no point in erasing the AGI code. The best strategy in this situation is to claim the invention, get rich from it, then use that money to hire lobbyists to push legislation through congress for solid AGI oversight so that the tech causes the least amount of harm and maximum public good.

Sounds like pseudoscience garbage. If you're jealous and possessive with your partner, you need to be seeing a psychiatrist. Whatever the fuck "practicing non attachment" means is not going to help you because the problem is your own personal issues -- usually anxiety or personality disorders. Jealousy is a symptom and only an expert can give you the tools to better your mental health.

Yes, we have that technology right now. AI models available today are not as innovative as a human voice actor, but they do a good job of duplicating a basic range of emotions in the actor's cadence.

The question isn't whether we can, but whether the actor's family can sue for using their voice. Right now, performers' rights legislation only protects content made by the actor themselves and does not protect against AI voice duplication. In the coming years, there will undoubtedly be a few legal cases on this subject, but ultimately it may have to be decided on a case-by-case basis.

Isn't the point of Squid Game that even good people would do anything for a life-changing amount of money? Take a regular person and put them in a desperate situation, and they will turn on their friends and family. Gi-hun might be the incorruptible hero trope (in the end), but the show isn't really about him, it's about the spectacle of the game and inviting viewers to decide what they'd do in every round.

Plenty of people found the fight for money and survival relatable (since it framed money and survival as the same thing). Don't know about S. Korea, but 65% of the US lives paycheck to paycheck and the average American is 90K in debt. Remember that in the show, all the players voted to leave the Game and then returned of their own free will -- and this was a massively relatable moment for the audience. It conveyed that the Game is inescapable and that we are all already playing it. The show also gave people permission to think about how brutal they'd get if put into this type of situation by making it seem like everyone else would be just as cutthroat.

The reality show is just a PG version of this dark fantasy.
