they actually had this thing called indian plays in both soviet countries and germany
Americans are so racist they have to fabricate nonexistent racist stuff elsewhere to feel better about their own racism. Impressive.
Sorry for this slightly random remark, but fuck whoever unironically came up with concept of "stealing" memes.
Someone that has their own morals, and thinks killing is bad?
Can we guarantee they'd report him if there was no financial incentive?
The system really doesn't give a fuck about your or anyone else's morals, let's not pretend otherwise. That's why they put a bounty on the killer, after all.
Umm... return to tradition, I guess??
A fun detail: this was written by a woman, priestess Enheduanna, the first writer that we know of by name.
FYI, there are multiple methods to download "digitally loaned" books off IA, the guides exist on reddit. The public domain stuff is safe, but the stuff that is still under copyright yet unavailable by other means (Libgen/Anna's Archive, or even normal physical copies) should definitely be ripped and uploaded to LG.
The method I use, which results in best images, is to "loan" the book, zoom in to load the highest resolution, and then leaf through the book. Periodically extract the full images from your browser cache (with e.g. MZCacheView). This should probably be automatised, but I'm yet to find a method, other than making e.g. an Autohotkey script. When you have everything downloaded, the images can be easily modified (if the book doesn't have coloured illustrations IMO it is ideal to convert all images to black-and-white 2-bit PNG), and bundled up into a PDF with a PDF editor (I use X-Change Editor; I also like doing OCR, adding the bookmarks/outline, and adding special page numbering if needed - but that stuff can take a while and just makes the file easier to handle, it's not necessary). Then the book can be uploaded to proper pirate sites and hopefully live on freely forever. Also there are some other methods you can find online, on reddit, etc.
Does the picture imply that the two desires are contradictory?
Personally, I talk with my best friend like once a month...
Maybe the artist just screwed it up, but there's a snake species that really does have eyes positioned like that, on top of its head. Arabian sand boa:
Not AI (existed back in 2022), but now that I look at it more closely I see it's at least partly photoshopped, as the comments on reddit point out. :(
The illustration of that patent practically a meme, many on Lemmy should know it.
Though it should be kept in mind there's thousands of patents that were never actually applied, and this one was filled back in 2009.
We quite literally have the tech and the legal framework
Do patents necessarily have to follow the law?

What's your point here? Is googling supposed to be a lottery of good and shit results?
An American is taking care of the Russian community and defending it from CIA propaganda, that's so anti-imperialist. I'm sure Russians are thankful 🙏
