Man y’all really expect high quality, extremely diverse, and robust video streaming platform for free?!
YouTube gotta pay it’s bills somehow. Why y’all ok with paying Netflix/prime/hulu or whatever but not YouTube?!
YouTube don’t owe nobody free services. Get over it.
That is textbook emotional manipulation.
Having been in that position, no. I would not appreciate being emotionally fucked up.
“Silver linings”.
Thank you. Finally.
My mum had cancer. The number of such bullshit videos i got sent, offering no real hope, was painful. It’s heartbreaking to toy with people in that situation.
Content that should’ve been easily purchased, but it’s stuck behind a subscription model. Photoshop. Lightroom. I don’t understand why these have subscriptions. I should be able to buy it like any other software.
I never disregarded anything as a living being!!
I never said plants were lifeless!!!
That’s what I’ve been emphasising so far over and over.
There’s a distinction between being alive and being sentient.
All sentient beings are alive, but all alive beings aren’t sentient.
Plants show all the evidence of being alive, but so far we have no evidence of them being sentient.
Disabled humans are humans all the same. So that’s not a fair comparison. (At least in my mind it’s very clear).
A pretty detailed discussion on the topic:
https://www.wellbeingintlstudiesrepository.org/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1772&context=animsent
All living beings are capable of responding to external stimuli, both active and reactive. They are capable of basic friend/foe recognition. They are capable of adapting. These are just basic aspects of literally being alive. Even an amoeba can do these things to some extent or the other.
But does that put a turnip at the same level as a dog? It doesn’t in my books.
I’m not any high horse. The field is in it’s very nascent stages. But the evidence so far isn’t supporting the notion. We don’t live in Pandora.
This post is clearly trying to ruffle some feathers.
Would’ve appreciated some links to the recent studies referred here.
And that’s very basic level of communication. I’m not sure we can really compare it higher life forms.
Fungi are an entirely different ballgame. They are way too different from both animal and plants.
This is an INCREDIBLE render! Doesn’t feel ai generated at all.
The dildo in the mid seems to have been stuck the wrong way up🤣
Very obvious bait post.
Plants are not sentient. Animals are.
All living organisms show basic reaction to external stimuli. Plants follow that. That does not indicate sentience.
Animals have significantly more intelligence than that. They form bonds, form relationships, mourn, and so on.
No living being except probably photosynthesis driven plankton can live entirely without consuming anything alive.
Enjoyed thoroughly! 😍
I used it for some time before, since it was just people asking questions and doubts and curiosities.
But once this paid stupidity started, it was adios time.
Well they get paid to ask absolute garbage so you’ll see oodles of these shitty “questions”
Basically Quora.
Quora started to pay people to ask questions, rather than reward the people who put efforts into answering.
I skipped that stupid thing instantly.
It’s quite good. The first piece of content to show the hacking/computer world accurately.
Rami Malek does a stellar job.
