  • Obviously worms in general are needed, but any big group of mainly parasitic ones I could happily delete without a second thought. Ideally let's also destroy any records of their existence.

  • Wasps are crucial pollinators, and predators for millions of other poisonous, venomous, deadly bug and animals (including other wasps). Ecosystem surviving the sudden loss of all wasps is questionable.

  • This is dang impressive, nice! As someone entirely unappreciative and unaware of Lemmy's backend, is it likely a tool that other instances could/would make use of? Or is it too faffy to redeploy for other instances?

  • Any sources to back up that a vague amount of infrared of the eye region is so meaningfully essential to face recognition systems? My sunglasses reflect most visible light, and they reflect some infrared light, and they cost $5. Even granting that very shaky claim, infrared blocking materials aren't that expensive, this seems like a gimmick to make up for big prices.

    A mask and any sunglasses or hat will prevent facial recognition 1000x better I suspect.

  • I don't think 100 million will buy you a hill of beans in US politics. And I don't think they'll betray their class interests for any amount of money - what's the point in taking a $100m bribe if it means there's fair taxation and more equitable living that prevents them being top dog with that money?

  • Honestly, you want a simple, widely accepted, heavily west-biased source? Literally just read the wikipedia article.

    "[CBS and WP journalists] could not find enough evidence to suggest that a massacre took place on the square"

    "cables from the United States embassy in Beijing agreed there was no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square"

    Nobody here is denying there were protests, or that a limited number people died in clashes with police across the country. But literally no reputed source, western lib or otherwise, claims that the government was out in Tianenmen killing civilians in major numbers.
