Well, it seems from the article the Damenites view it as a bit of both, considering how much they hammer in the following:
It is in this context that Theodor Herzl, the "father of Zionism", came to the conclusion that Jewish assimilation into European culture would not prevent anti-Semitism and the only solution was the establishment of an independent Jewish state in the region of historic Palestine (the "Holy Land" of Abrahamic faiths). Like other forms of nationalism, the Zionist movement also developed its right and left-wings, "reactionary" and "progressive" variants. If the "Revisionist Zionism" of Ze'ev Jabotinsky saw Jewish self-determination as an expansionist colonial project, the "Labour Zionism" of Dov Ber Borochov saw it as an act of national liberation on the way to socialist transformation.
Of course, a rejection of natlib from them is unsurprising. The party to my understanding upholds an altered version of Rosa Luxemburgs stance.
I don't really care if it is stealing. Steal all you want. The random dude making the modern day equivalent of a flash game is certainly not counting on game sales to make ends meet, and the corporations can get fucked and die.
I've not even hit 30 and have too many fell for it again awards from "progressive" Democrats. Won't vote for one again the rest of my life that's a promise.
Datacenters have always been an environmental concern and I feel like AI has highlighted the larger issue that old tech nerds have been yelling about for over a decade, people are not using the computer sitting right in front of them and instead using some other mystical computer out in the "cloud".
If everyone was using shitty little 8b param llms on their own hardware vs the 200b param llms on the "cloud" the environmental impact would not only be more spread out, but also in general consume far less energy.
God I hate steam fanboys so fucking much. There is no such thing as a corporation which cares about you. Every single action is done to keep profits up.
These are peaceful rallies steered by liberal groups. Those thousands of protestors aren't exactly militant, they didn't show up for that. If any radical action actually happened those people will leave and never show up again.
As I move into bigger and bigger cities the people around me insist the answer is no, but I regularly leave the doors unlocked. I also have no issue hitchhiking either so, maybe i'm a bit of an outlier. I've got infinite levels of trust in people.
Full disclosure, my experience with hypno is more kink related and not in a medical context, so my experience will be drastically different than those that get into hypno for therapy because most of the time the people performing it in my case are amateurs leaning heavily on preexisting dom/sub power dynamics (ie not "true" hypnosis). YMMV.
I don't really visualize things in my head at all. Sometimes on a good day I can imagine almost a fuzzy smoke like outline, but this isn't a typical day for me. I can imagine sounds, smells, tastes and especially touch/sensations.. ickplant@lemmy.world made a great point in one of the comments here. Using the word "pretend" is a far better delivery.
In my personal sessions I have the best experience when people can suspend my disbelief and make me believe they are incredibly skilled, even if maybe they aren't. Part of that is just me really wanting to be hypnotized, and honestly that's the biggest thing. If you want hypnotized you will be hypnotized, and if you don't, you won't.
I can pretty much just think about the sensation I feel during hypnosis and put myself into a sort of pseudo trance at this point. I listen to audios occasionally and try and do a session with someone about once every couple months. I'm not really fully educated on the mechanics of it all, but I know I enjoy it.
The corporation sponsors the pro capitalist ideologue? I'm shocked.
