At least we have something to be happy about in this hellscape.

Well, you can't argue that it wouldn't work ;-)

I'm not sure AGI would. Maybe ASI. But in the end it's still humans that would likely have to enact whatever proposals it came up with.

There's usually a dip around Black Friday but yeah PS5 is a way better value overall if you are patient.

At the end of the day, the future is written by human beings, and unless we have a collective vision of where we are trying to go, the darker forces among us will take control and do as they wish with us.

Despite him being a tech bro and everything, I do think we need more shows like Star Trek these days to show us what a functional future with technology could look like. I think the only examples we see any more in popular culture are dystopian, and I think we are starting to believe that those are the only possible outcomes of the path we are on. Even Star Trek these days is pretty dark.

We need to again try to imagine a world in which the better half of humanity succeeds.

Please! Do it quick before our economy collapses!

^ This is the most accurate explanation. I was on .ml for quite a while before I realized the pattern that any time I criticized Russian attacks or war crimes, I got downvoted and brigaded. Any time I promoted Ukraines right to defend itself I got downvoted and brigaded. Often my posts were removed. Try to mention tienamen square there ;-). They will come troll threads on other instances from time to time too. I just block them these days and refuse to subscribe to any .ml communities.

Is this from today?

Which is roughly what we had before he rode Dirty Diaper Donny into the White House.

ITT Trump was in that lecture.

My dad has dimentia, and I sometimes wonder if it's because my mom didn't let him have a thought of his own for 50 years.

Took me a bit longer on this one than the usual dad joke.

I dunno, without this, controller players would have no chance against mouse players. ITT cross play between controller and mouse can never really be a fair fight.

I guess each leg qualifies as its own jean?

Bet they're all engineers.

Right there with ya.

I was a Unix sysadmin for years and never once used the num pad. I'm in sales now for 25 years and still don't use it. I mean, it's always been a goal of mine but I just never think of it when it's time to use it, and it's slower for me to use it than not use it. And I don't enter enough numbers to get enough practice to be good at it.

If I felt it was the best way to save my country from destruction, yes I would. I wouldn't let him act against the best interests of my country, but I would kiss his ass if I thought it would help. From everything I've seen, Stubb is staunchly against Russia's imperialist ambitions, so unless he's really just blowing hot air about that, I doubt he will just go along with Trump's current plans for Europe.

long long
