You, my friend, have to read up on super PACs

Oh, we could probably create giant trees with selective breeding and gene editing. But those trees would still need hundreds of years to grow (and that’s a good thing, since it would store CO2 while growing) and if there are problems with the gene editing we would only notice after decades.

I would be much less against pro-life if the movement would focus on better care for would-be-mothers, easier adoption and better oversight, financial support for girls who give up their children, increasing adoption numbers, better sex ed, etc. instead of banning abortions.

They are exclusively focusing on the worst way to reduce abortions.

It’s the poster child of vapid consumerism. Pseudo-deep “words of wisdom” often bought by the most shallow people you can think of.

It’s the battle cry of the suburban Karen, the mantra of the soccer mom.

Often combined with the consumption of rigorous amounts of wine and sings declaring how hilarious this socially accepted alcoholism is.

Everybody wants to rule the world in my ass

I miss LAN parties… Duke Nukem 3D, Doom, CS, Diablo, Alien vs Predator 2, Quake and the successors of those games. Good times. Online is nice and all, but nothing compares to playing the night away with friends in one room

This opening move is called “The Russian Statesman”. Very traditional.

Never experienced something like that, especially with metal fans who - in my opinion - are some of the most welcoming bunch.

Perhaps it’s different in the US, but here in Germany that scenario seems unlikely.

Better then Trump is a low bar and you know it.

No one sane said that he was a bad president (although he could have been a lot better) just that he is too old for the job.

I would say that anyone younger and progressive would do better than him.

Bernie would have won (according to polls) if the DNC hadn’t sabotaged him at every turn. Too polarizing? No, just too left for the Democrats.

They have been researching this since the 80s and the only thing that they sell is their dog drone? No humanoid drones for sale?

And it seems like the AI robot research groups are speed running the whole process.

Still, interesting stuff.

Well, the only thing that could reasonably help us would be to demolish the 1% and the corrupt politicians who support them. And yes, that would include an armed uprising.

Not that that I see that happening unless it gets much worse. We still have (some) bread and games left to pacify the masses.

With a sigh he cleans the up the tally for the 7th period. “Can’t call it near death anymore”

Depends on the job, but I think more like 5 figures. Still enough to live comfortably, but of course not enough for these greedy fucks. The reason so many are millionaires is not their salaries.

I don’t see how that paper has anything to do with OPs theory.

AI is a tool that makes us X% more productive (X is still debatable and bound to change)

But instead of making our job X% easier or let us earn X% more, work X% less, corporations are hellbent to fire X% of the workforce because that makes the most money.

Open source? Not the best currently available models.

Fucking worm? Is this the Dune cup all over again?

He always was for sale - he is just getting cheaper.
