It can still be worse,

I once overheard a group of kindergarteners continually yelling “Skibidi toilet” at repeat.

Do you play Minecraft?

I have yet to watch it but i assume there is very little to connect with if you don't?

Depending on how old your kids are and if you are not already playing, playing on a local server together is great family time and can provide situations for real bonding aswell as real world educational discussions.

All materials obtained just to turn it into jewellery is loss yes.

Mine is a gold alloy rather then pure and i am very fond of it. I derive pleasure from it everyday while the total loss was significantly less than the one in Bezos marriage.

We also had an engagement ring which has an industrial rock because no way where we going to waste our limited money on a real diamond.

All rings combined costs less than having a birth in a US hospital.

Both rings were still a loss to the planet, just like almost every novelty i own and many things i consume. Staying alive is a destructive action and all humans cause loss. That is normal and ok. What is not ok is not being aware/inconsiderate of it.

We should all strive to create the least amount of loss we are aware off and my older self having grown significantly then when i married would love a ring made from recycled computer metals which now often end up on a landfill.

So really that ring is pure loss.

No one owned that gem when it was just sitting in the ground. It took millions of years to create.

Some capitalism claimed it when one of his workers mined it. Calculated how much energy and labor it has costs to obtain it.

Then sold it for a massive markup compared to their own costs.

The machines have spend energy to get it (loss)

The workers spend life time and life energy to get it (loss)

Bezos his works spend their life time and energy to make him the money he now loses on this ring. (Loss)

The planet lost one of its rare gems. (Loss)

No lives are going to be saved using that rock, its not going to be used for breakthrough science, its not in a museum where we the people can admire our planet and learn from the its amazing processes. (No profit)

Instead its to decorate a hand so one person can be perceived as having value. Ironic.

Thanks for a we written reply.

Though i still dont quite get this

the electromagnetic force itself doesn’t “arise” from quantum mechanics, and you can explain things like electromagnets and a lot of common electric circuits (until you need a transistor) quite well without considering quantum mechanics.

You seen to say if we can explain x without y then y cannot be fundamental to x.

But can electromagnetism at all emerge if the quantum mechanics dont exist to emerge things like magnetism and some of the behavior of electrons?

That refines the definition but does not show a difference. There are reports of starving gazans too scared to show up to food distribution.

Maybe i am wording it wrong. I did make the comment half joking but my current understanding of how magnetism really works, which my physics teacher was unable to answer has a chapter on wikipedia called Quantum-mechanical origin of magnetism

I have no degrees in this stuff though, i just think about them recreationally.

The carrier particle thing to describe a fundamental force is new to me, and honestly feels very counterintuitive to how i started to understand things.

Gravity is a fundamental force just like electromagnetism (supposedly)

Fundamental means it cannot be explained by being caused by something else.

But then they say gravity is an effect caused by spacetime curvature and electromagnetism is caused by quantum phenomena.

What is the cause for spacetime or quantummechanics? Idk but somehow they don't make it on the list of fundamental forces.

Classical science, for all the good it did and does, is an unironic joke and if aliens knew about it they’d be laughing at us.

So what exactly is the difference between this and terrorism? (Nothing)

Wikipedia: Terrorism, in its broadest sense, is the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims.

Devs have no say on where the budget flows and the owning corporation doesn’t care about your passion for the project.

Fortnite ranked in billions of dollars, when it looks ass good its time to wrap up to get it shipped. You can patch bugs and balancing later but we need a trailer out asap for preoders.

Also back when graphics where actually good and optimized: gameplay still > graphics

Tbf they don’t really claim that when you read the research, thats mostly media hype and ceo assholes spinning words.

Its good at lots specific tasks like rewriting emails and summarising gives text, short roleplay, boilerplate code. Some undiscovered uses.

Anthropic latest claims they would not hire their own ai because of how hard it failed at the test they give, They didnt do that expecting validation but to measure how far we are still off from ai doing meaningful full work.
