Putting real life actors in AAA games has been a thing for years at this point, but now the graphics are so advanced that it will look completely photo real within the next couple console generations. Those game companies put real life actors in their movies because of the audience recognizes them. Same thing will likely happen for fashion as well. If you buy famous models'/celebrities' digital model you can reuse and license that however you want.
it distinguishes between white (59.3), Asian (10.8), Black or African American (3.9), Hispanic or Latino (10.4), American Indian or Alaska Native (0.3) Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander (0.1) and Temporary visa holder (9.3) for Engineering
Edit: and More than one race, unknown, or other (5.9), adds up to 100
I still remember when I was very little and my dad took me to a launch once.
Hope manned rocket launches will get more regular again and seeing them will inspire a whole new generation.
Personally I used iced [1] a bit and found it very pleasant to use. iced is cross platform, sponsored and very active.

No, they are most vulnerable and should therefor treated differently than other groups that are not. They also don't tend to work. Considering that ~20%-50% of covid deaths are nursing home residents, protecting them should be priority, not shutting it all down in hope it will dry up over the next 3 months, it won't.
Whenever I hear the arguments for UBI, the arguments for personal fulfilment are usually predominant and financial aspects are usually left out. I'm always interested in "how to pay for all this?", which proponents of UBI often classify as a conservative talking point, but that is clearly not the case.
Another point I usually bring up is "how much is necessary to achieve that? and why?" is $1000 each month enough and how should this be adapted over time.
My biggest concern with UBI and I haven't heard a convincing answer to it yet, how to prevent the baseline from being moved permanently and eating up all the additional income. If you make low income jobs less attractive, employers must pay more to keep their employees so they have to raise prices accordingly or go bust. So how to avoid that UBI is not just massive inflation in the long run.
