  • Naja, da steht halt, dass mehr Zugang zu Informationen über Verhütung mit ein Grund für den Rückgang ist.
    Wenn die Teenager schwanger werden wöllten, dann wäre Verhütungsinformation kein Hindernis. Man kann das Kondom o.Ä. einfach weglassen.

    Ähnlich bei “weniger Geschlechtsverkehr”. Wenn sich zwei gefunden haben, die Kinder wollen, dann kriegen die das hin, ausreichend Geschlechtsverkehr zu haben, egal was in der Statistik steht und auch ohne dass das bisschen Kinder-mach-Sex großartig die Statistik beeinflusst.
    Also im Grunde ist es auch da so, dass wenn die Gesamtmenge an Sex zurückgeht, dass hauptsächlich die Zahl ungewollter Schwangerschaften zurückgeht, weil es einfach weniger oft mit der Verhütung klappen muss.









  • Yeah, I feel like Christians make a big deal out of life vs. death. Life is declared this super great thing that was gifted to them by their god. And death is described like an eternal departure into the unknown.

    Meanwhile, if you view things in a much more mundane way, life is just your atoms jiggling about. It’s not particularly bad, when they stop jiggling together.
    But even if you do prefer them being part of a pile that’s deemed ‘alive’, your left toe is probably gonna get eaten by a worm and brought into a field, where a plant will pick up the atoms and grow some seeds, which get carried by a bird into the next forest and so on. Your atoms will almost certainly be part of many alive piles of atoms going forward.




  • Better than the original. As in, it’s a faithful reimplementation with quality of life improvements, like higher resolution, support for modern operating systems, and most loading times eliminated.

    I believe, there’s still tiny differences to how the original behaved in certain situations, which is why they don’t call it “1.0” yet, but you’re not going to notice while playing.

    This week at work, I had to use a brainstorming board software that I’m not familiar with, for an outside collaboration.
    And the meeting organizer asked us to put a picture of ourselves onto the board, so we can track who’s working on what.

    I thought, you could do that with the “Sticker” feature, because it had a file upload dialog. So, I upload my photo there and after a few more clicks, nope, that’s not how you do that. Instead, it had generated 4 pictures of me in dumb poses.

    I would love to know what they were thinking:

    • There was no explanation, so why would I assume that the file upload dialog isn’t just a way to add custom images?
    • It’s rather creepy to just take my picture and spit out fakes in poses I’ve never been in.
    • Who’s actually going to use this? I’m sure some folks find it hilarious, but only the first time around, too.

    Yeah, all in all, it just felt like they had to shoehorn in an AI feature, without rhyme or reason.
