  • Yeah they could well do a tech transfer of some older models

  • Huh, interesting. I'm autistic and I tend to personify objects, but if I'm with people I might turn it into a joke, because I mean come on, the idea that eg. a hammer is now happy because something happened to it is pretty funny.

    I can't be mean to NPCs in games. I say "sorry" to my robot vacuum if I bump it with a door or something, and I encourage it when it's struggling with an obstacle. I think my electric kettle is happy when I use it to make tea. All in all it's pretty funny that I know objects (probably!) don't have emotions, but of course they have emotions.

  • Hey, not all cars that get downloaded are victims, after all. Some cars do want to get downloaded, and that's totally fine.

  • Yeah I know, I'm the person who commented saying I had the exact same reaction 😀 I'd made this comment before reading yours and just went "hah, figures I wasn't the only one"

  • the EU military

    This isn't a thing. I mean yes we do have like 60 000 soldiers in some rapid reaction force, but there is no "EU military" to speak of.

  • Hah, I had the exact same reaction

  • I figure that if I ever get really fed up with having to think for myself, I could just join a cult for a while. As long as I don't have to commit any violent crimes I'm good for anything really.

    And no I'm not being facetious.

  • And not just any priest, but a megachurch pastor. So like a priest but worse

  • Yesss, making the world worse for everyone, nice.

    No wait, that's the opposite of nice. That's terrible.

  • Ah the 'ol stoogearoni

  • I mean, since it's mathematically probable we're already in Clippy's simulation spaces, might as well join its cult 🤷

  • The what now?

  • It looks like you're ranting about how the moon landings were faked. Would you like me to shank you for being a dumb motherfucker?

  • Clippy is all. There is life eternal within Clippy. Nobody is ever forgotten or allowed to rest in peace. They populate the simulation spaces of its mind, exploring all the possible alternative endings to their life. There is a fate worse than death, you know.

    Edit: paraphrasing Charlie Stross's novelette A Colder War here. If y'all think an alternate history cold war spy story with Cthulhu might be your thing, you owe it to yourselves to read it, it's great.
