Is it? Humans have cooperated for much of our history. And even when power structures are pushing them against each other people literally risk life and limb to help them.

It’s an interesting and detailed post.
I think it has brought a lot to the table.
What did your comment bring?
Lot of people more annoyed that language is a living, changing thing than the predatory nature of in game purchases (but we all knew the latter already, so this isn’t gonna be news to us).
Yes, I’m sure that Fox News explains the endurance Joseph Smith’s religion.
Please be performance art…
Or ended up as a priest caste, or a third gender, or were accepted as the gender they expressed in some non-European parts of the world.
Which sports are popular and have the support to be more economically viable?
Of them, how far away from the top seeds do you get before it can no longer be done professionally?
If unisex (I know, it’s a bizzare word) sports leagues were how it was done, do you think more or less women (including trans-women) would be able to be professional athletes?
Qi, for a handy way to use a Q and not open up more space.
Syzygy
Just for the spelling really.
I like your thinking. I’d love a lifetime step count, or even something like how many boxes of cereal I’ve consumed over my life.
I’d also want to check up on what famous historical figures got up to. Or where unknown folks came from prior to being recorded.
Where did the ka’bar’s white twin come from and end up?
How many lovers did Queen Elizabeth I have?
And many more I often think but can’t call to mind now.
Almost as good as human if you grill it right.
All news will be biased, but a news source that doesn’t make it’s bias clear (probably for general status quo) can be harder to pick out where it’s bias is influencing what it says, or doesn’t, and how it says it and the weight it gives to what.
To hit at the root of your question: most people further left than Centre Left want to see large systemic change to the systems we live in. Centrists are generally happy with the systems in theory and think that they need small tweaks for better results, not wholesale root and branch change to economic structures.
OK, my bad. I should have used “to a vastly different degree”.
Sorry for being an arrogant mouth-spouter.
I think it’s about the way Charon and Neptune both influence it’s orbit and rotation, in ways that, for instance, the Moon doesn’t with Earth.
Ceres is a planet.
Makemake, Hamuhea, Pluto, and Eris can come too I guess.
With a few odd exceptions, which is why “five items or less” is actually correct.
Which is why English is even more fun.
So the Japanese names of the Kanto badges are just their colour.
We can probably chalk the odd name up to the translator not having played the game through and muddling the order, or just bizzare Gen 1 choices.
Surveillance isn’t new. The ruling powers have surveilled as much as they can throughout history, although prior to the advent of mechanic computers to tabulate census data (which insurance companies started doing first iirc, to make more money by charging appropriate premiums and charging personalised rates) it was hard to do it on any scale in a remotely timely manner.
It was done to “aid in ruling”, to know the mood of the people and to nip seccession and unrest in the bud. You didn’t want a Catholic/Puritan/Rival claimant group to be able to establish itself and pose of threat, not to speak of foreign intrigue.
Now a days, with the second (now possibly even third telecommunications revolution) surveillance on a individual is possible to a level of granularity in effectively real time never before deemed possible.
We have yet to really see what this means as the powers in every country have held back on the use of these new powers in order to not alienate or scare the populace. Yes, even in the PRC they hold back allowing people to send critical messages in private - reserving the data based crack down on people who dare to publicly share such thoughts or work on organising.
But despite that, for all the nations with control over their data networks, the goal is the same: preservation of the power structure. Systems are self preserving, and stopping the people without a say or power over the system making large alterations is the primary goal. Be it couched in terms of “anti-terrorism”, anti-subversion", “treachery”, “public safety”, “morality” or the like.
Yes, you seemed very sarcastic in your reasonable and not at all defensive responses to other people.
