Have you not seen 2001 A Space Oddysee? Kubrick couldn’t have made a fake moon video as realistic as the film from the crews of the six landers that landed and filmed on the moon
How would Kubrick’s film have fake livestreamed to the different downlink sites? Low orbits are much much faster than orbits at lunar altitude (90 minutes versus a month). How could a LEO broadcast satellite pretend to livestream from the moon?
How could they fake it so well Russia couldn’t tell? Russia could pick up and decode the signal from the moon when the moon was up. Radio direction finders were a thing back then
Just as LLMs become better every year or less. Lots of money expects a lot from AI soon
With the exception of smart phones, most of the things that make the now bad were unrelated to the tech
Climate change is happening because changing the way the world gets its energy is slow. Fossil fuels way predate flight
Lack of social cohesion is due to the car allowing us to isolate ourselves in sparse suburbia rather than to live in neighbourhoods
Wars are older than humanity but are affecting fewer of us now than in the past, though things were even more peaceful a couple of decades ago
The capture of almost all the value of labour by the owner class could probably have happened anyway, it started before computers, perhaps it was accelerated by computers

The OP image shows Google prioritising the quoted search term, but also getting the similar meaning results
Quotes tell the search engine you want that or something like it, don’t show stuff completely unlike it
Entirely possible. Boost used to be a Reddit client and probably has Reddit flavour to its formatting.
I must have used it, as I used BBSes, but that was long enough ago that I have forgotten a lot
Your Wikipedia link is broken. Underscores are formatting marks, they make text italic
I think my version of the link may be broken in some clients. It works in the web version and Boost
I don’t think there’s any way to make the link work without making it a normal hyperlink format, which removes the special meaning of the underscores

psud@aussie.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•why are website language switchers in the current language?English0·10 days agoMy pixel set to Australian English works fine in metric. I presume you chose British English where they use miles rather than kilometres, of course that works for me as I also want Australian spellings
psud@aussie.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•why are website language switchers in the current language?English0·10 days agoSince we’re using Unicode we sort by first on left to right or last letter on right to left languages by their code point
You think it would work if one end is a magnet and the other ferrous metal? I’m pretty certain it wouldn’t
Whatever happens there’s no work done as the magnet and it’s partner don’t move relative to each other. There’s force between them, but no movement.

Fractal might have meant that when Mandelbrot coined the name, but that is not what it means now.
Funny that the retirees read a lot. Their friends are dead and they don’t have a steam account
