When they received the call to respond to an Israeli airstrike in the city of Mayfadoun, in southern Lebanon, most of the paramedics held back, having previously seen colleagues killed by double-tap attacks targeting rescuers. But the medics from the Islamic Health Association (IHA) rushed to the scene.
By the time the other emergency workers arrived at the site, they found the IHA medics had indeed been caught in a second strike. They started evacuating their wounded colleagues, only for their ambulances to be hit in two further attacks.
One of the paramedics covered his ears and screamed, convulsing in pain as shrapnel shattered the back window of the ambulance.
The rescue mission on Wednesday afternoon had turned into a nightmare as Israel carried out three consecutive strikes on three sets of ambulances and medical workers.
Israel performed a literal quadruple tap attack in Lebanon to massacre three separate sets of medics.
Truly pushing the bounds of human depravity.

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial
Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

It's so disappointing seeing how many artists keep rehashing orientalist ideas. I'm tired and none of these ppl actually give a fuck if you complain to them and they get so offended if you point out this shit in their "original fantasy world that they're so precious about" give me a fucking break

I get not wanting to feel stupid but I also hope they're able to get over their discomfort over "feeling bad" (hopefully sooner than later). I totally get the joy of sharing a language with a partner and I hope you get to experience that eventually

Agree with what was already said, it’s important to you and that’s all that matters. I would be so sad and upset if my partner seemed annoyed by my mother tongue, so you’re valid for feeling this way

So if using AI actually does erode human cognition the way studies suggest, then it's a feature instead of a bug?
The world is gross enough without "take away people's ability to think so we can sell it back to them" being on the list.
