The cap has been increased by ~~150~~ 50% from £2 to £3.

Please under no circumstances do trains.

You seem to be in the camp of believing the hype. See this write up of an apple paper detailing how adding simple statements that should not impact the answer to the question severely disrupts many of the top model's abilities.

In Bloom's taxonomy of the 6 stages of higher level thinking I would say they enter the second stage of 'understanding' only in a small number of contexts, but we give them so much credit because as a society our supposed intelligence tests for people have always been more like memory tests.

This is now top of my list

If the immediate danger is the car, couldn't they shoot the tires instead of the driver? I don't understand how you can claim to not have intended to kill a person whom you aimed a firearm at and then pulled the trigger.

The first line of that article is

Without citing a source, Channel 12 reports...

Please try harder. There are people dying because of misinformation.

We were told he was fortified in a tunnel network surrounded by bodyguards and hostages as human shields, like some terrorist mastermind.

He is killed running alone from one bombed out house to another, by a soldier that didn't even recognize him.

Not saying he shouldn't have been killed, but it really shows the false pretenses under which this 'war' is being carried out.

Definitely had issues on first release, but a lot has improved since then without getting much coverage. Btw I wouldn't say that x86 has 'caught up' especially if your metric is power efficiency, not just raw power. Until we see a realistic RISC-V offering arm will likely remain king in that space.

Single point of failure for all my usernames and passwords? No thanks

They were humans pretending to be robots, these are actually robots that are being remotely controlled, rather than being fully autonomous.

'The Market' is not capable of spontaneously deciding to make less profit for sure. What is capable of, and in fact the only thing it does is responding to demand. If the demand for highly polluting products like meat and fish fall, it will pivot to products that continue to see high demand.

This is why individual action does matter. You can't just offload all responsibility for making better choices onto the companies and act as though you are forced to consume what they produce, andnothing will change unless they change.

To be clear I'm not advocating for everyone to be vegan or anything like that. One plant based meal a week could have huge impact on the climate

If a foreign nation dropped a bomp on your house or rolled a tank down your street you might just start to side with the people saying they're going to get them back.

Israel's strategy can and will only lead to more Hamas support because they make no distinction between civilians and Hamas. They have never had a real plan to 'return hostages', only to wipe out the Palestinian people, because they perceive the idea of Palestinian identity to be an existential threat.

They're not doing that independently of the products and services they provide. Over consumption is a big issue and narratives like this shirk personally responsibility and promote the bystander effect.
