I had no interest in seeing it until I read this article. This sold me.


I didn't knew it existed before reading. Still, I have no interest in watching it.


Find chocolate that doesn't involve slave labor at some point in it's production and then say that again.


There is some of the bean to bar variety. Very different price class, though.

I'd also guess (not know, haven't researched that area at all) that some of the fair trade and similar certified labels you can find even in supermarkets have a good enough control for that.


works for me


Huh. Works for me at home as well. Must be something with the firewall at work or similar. Thanks!


We force life itself on them without their consent, so ensuring they actually live past childhood seems like a package deal...


Is there less beauty and purpose and meaning in a child who lives for 1 month over one that lives for 80 years?


Objectively yes, I'm not even sure that's a question.

I have some serious antinatalist leanings, but if one is going to live (assuming decent quality of life and what not) more life is always going to be objectively better.

welcome to capitalism...


considering how fast we're speed running climate change I don't even think the present cares about the future...


Though I agree bard isn't the best name, gemini is a worse name.

Bard has connotations, but by it's self it makes one think of a person that talks well.

WTF is gemini? It is a twin, but this is a singular product. Beyond that it's just generic. It doesn't tell you what it does at all.


Not with regular people. Bard is just "old" to them.

Think of the syllables. Copilot. Gemini. They need to be close to the market leader on a subconscious level.


When the competition is called "ChatGPT", maybe the naming isn't as important to normal people as we think?


Microsoft is the competition. ChatGPT has been embraced and extended.


I read Gemini as twins, with the user and the AI making a pair.

Works for me.


it also get's caught in stupid loops.

this game is fun for a bit, but shallow once you realize the gimmick.

you can go completely random bullshit go and get "super cyberwolfman zombie phoenixman" that's nonsense, of course it's "first discovery!"


That cat is out of the bag, that term has gone napkin or bandaid.


Yeah, Trek2000 didn't really defend their mark too much. I suppose J&J probably does because I don't see anyone using Bandaid for non-J&J bandages, at least in the US.


Not for sales purposes, but I don't know what brand the bandaids I have in the cabinet are, but if i ask for one that's what I'll call them...


Sure. I wasn't commenting on colloquial speech, I was commenting on Amazon's listings.
