This becomes even more ridiculous if you consider that we wasted about 1.05 billion tonnes of food worldwide in 2022 alone. (UNEP Food Waste Index Report 2024 Key Messages)

But no. Supermarkets will miss out on profits if they ban people from their stores who can't pay.

Seems illogical? Because it is.

That's a good way to use it. Like every technological evolution it comes with risks and downsides. But if you are aware of that and know how to use it, it can be a useful tool.
And as always, it only gets better over time. One day we will probably rely more heavily on such AI tools, so it's a good idea to adapt quickly.

I am absolutely with you on that one.

But I think it's tied to how we do business and less a problem which is very specific to the movie industry. Or in other words: it's our fucked up capitalism in action again.

The workhorses of such shows get almost neglected while the shiny poster people and producers get most of the share.

And that's basically everywhere the case. CEOs, managers, superiors are making insanely more money than those who are contributing a lot of work. It's an unfair system which is holding the movie industry tightly in its grip as well.

Thanks for pointing it out. There is clearly room for a lot of error.

I think they meant other countries, which have liberty and democracy engraved to their core.

Also, please keep it civil. There was no need to be so condescending. If you're unhappy with the answer, there are better ways to express this. :)

Or, you know, Russia could just get the fuck out of Ukraine and leve them in peace. Much better agreement imo.

How is it profitable?

InternetPerson , to World News in Zelensky: 'Our partners fear that Russia will lose this war'

I wonder whether it's possible to fight wars without – ideally – having casaulties at all.

For example, sedating instead of killing. Afterwards prison camps or something like that. Admittedly, given the scale, it is financially and logistically a tremendous effort. But how much must a human life "be worth" in order to be spared?

There are other obvious issues like civil unrest, if the other party keeps killing soldiers of one's own military.

Still, it's better than to end lifes from my perspective. One side must be the bigger one.

We spend so much effort and resources into specialising how to kill each other. But we don't use that resources for finding alternative ways.

If there are people who really want to kill each other, throw them together and leave the rest alone.

How is it a proxy war if it was russia which started it?

There is just that teeny tiny ethical problem of not paying the creators and distributors for something we enjoy. This becomes a practical problem as well. If they make less money, it's likely that even more movies or series get killed or never even started.

Idk what to do.

We, yesterday for a train ride. We, next week, for the way back. We almost every month for that purpose.

Also, at least where I live, they are increasing prices.

Makes me feel like it's time to dust my old pirate hat...

Install an android emulator. Problem solved.

Start pirating again. Problem solved.

Make your own movies and shows. Problem solved.

Start a company, get rich, buy Netflix, problem solved.

Stop watching stuff, do something else. Problem solved.

Found a secret society, infiltrate politics worldwide, stir chaos and destruction, let the world burn and built a new Netflix from the world's ashes where you still can download stuff. Problem solved.

See? It's not that hard!

(In case it wasn't clear, I am joking.)

Stack Overflow, technically a neutral term. Idk though whether the name in such a context would violate any trademark laws even if it's a non-profit platform.
