Yeah The Netherlands are boycottting as well!

Well done Ireland! This is a statement more countries should follow

Independent analysis by a trusted consumer advocacy group has found that several of Australia’s most popular, and expensive, sunscreens are not providing the protection they claim to, kicking off a national scandal.

Why isn’t that happening?You don’t have to be nice to a bully?!? It’s probably money but can someone eli5 this to me? Are we so dependent on everything American? Or is this a long game, wait this storm out?

Some scientists and theorists believe that the reactor is extremely advanced, suggesting that highly intelligent beings existed 2 billion years ago. While another hypothesis is that it was constructed by prehistoric human civilization (like described in the Silurian Hypothesis by NASA scientists) using techniques that were lost to subsequent humans.

However, most of the mainstream researchers believe that Oklo is the world’s only identified naturally occurring reactor which was created by accident. As scientists Norman Schwers and John A. Miller from Sandia National Laboratories explain in a 2017 paper, the concept of a naturally occurring reactor was originally documented in 1956 using reactor theory or the infinite multiplication constants.

Summary: The article from EL PAÍS discusses a study predicting a significant decline in the global population by 2100. Here’s a summary:

Global Population Decline: The study, published in The Lancet by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, forecasts that by 2050, 155 out of 204 countries will have fertility rates too low to maintain their populations. By 2100, this will rise to 97% of countries.

Fertility Rate Drop: The fertility rate is plummeting worldwide. For instance, Spain’s fertility rate decreased from 2.47 children per woman in 1950 to 1.26 in 2021, with projections of 1.23 in 2050 and 1.11 in 2100. This trend is mirrored globally, with France, Germany, and the European average also experiencing declines.

Economic and Social Impact: The study urges governments to prepare for the economic, health, environmental, and geopolitical challenges posed by an aging and shrinking population.

Regional Differences: While rich countries already face very low fertility rates, low-income regions start from higher rates. Sub-Saharan Africa, for example, will see a significant increase in its share of global births, from 18% in 2021 to 35% in 2100.

Migration as a Temporary Solution: The authors suggest that international migration could temporarily address demographic imbalances, but as fertility decline is a universal phenomenon, it’s not a long-term solution.

The article highlights the need for strategic planning to address the impending demographic shifts and their associated challenges¹.

Fair point. Methods may vary, result is the same

Brave yes, the chance of falling out of a window has increased infinite fold

I know there are a lot of smaller airports which use a bus system

Yeah i think you might have some other problems as well

Some info points from my first Google hit https://www.dw.com/en/what-is-behind-indias-rape-problem/a-51739350

Experts say that a woman is raped in India every 16 minutes.

“Rape is a non-bailable offense in the Indian penal code,” Anuja Trehan Kapur, a New Delhi-based criminal psychologist and advocate, told DW. Kapur has assisted government officials on high-profile criminal cases, including the 2012 gang rape.

“But people do get bail because of a lack of evidence [in many cases]. The accused are often sheltered by police, or politicians, or even lawyers,” Kapur added.

We have a patriarchal society in India, which gives more importance to men. Women are usually considered second-class citizens,"

The article compares the different approaches and goals of China and the US in developing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies.

China is focusing on building large-scale AI systems that can perform specific tasks such as facial recognition, natural language processing, and autonomous driving. China aims to use AI to boost its economic growth, social stability, and global influence.

The US is pursuing more fundamental research on the nature and limits of intelligence, both human and artificial. The US hopes to create more general and adaptable AI systems that can learn from diverse data and environments, and solve complex problems across domains.

The article argues that both countries face challenges and risks in their AI endeavors, such as ethical, legal, and social issues, as well as potential conflicts and competition. The article suggests that more cooperation and dialogue between the two countries could benefit both sides and the world.

Awesome next step! Yes it is going to be expensive, yes it will not be successful in the beginning and so on… We need this kind of research, cause it will not develop itself!

Look, I don’t wanna be that guy but the age of man is almost over! If we continue this path, I think skynet or Faro (from horizon zero dawn) is within the possibilities!

Just putting out there, just in case these Lemmy servers are found 10.000 years from now, they are gonna say: yeah this one was right!

Who would have expected this? Surprised pikachu

But the only one who opposed Putin (with any military power) being dead isn’t necessary a good thing (imho)
