President Vance, without a doubt.

“Holy Wah!”

Why do I feel like he would have been a picture-perfect nazi if his uncle capitulated on the ever increasing career status? He wanted special treatment because of his name, and didn’t get it. He didn’t “reject evil” so much as throw a tantrum because he didn’t get his way.

Civility had been in a downward trend since public discourse became mostly anonymized. When there are no real world consequences it’s easy to be rude and dismissive. Then, once people saw that the rudest and most dismissive tactics were the most popular online, the same behavior spread offline.

Your question presupposes that everyone is a Christian, and it takes a conscious effort to reject that. It my be hard for you to see it, but that’s a problem with your worldview.

The desperate hope that a “good guy with a gun” will show up and rescue us like they promised.

We are a LOT farther away than 5 years. What you see right now is a lot of hype from venture capitalists over chatbots.

I think any real AGI will have to have some kind of reasoning ability, and I don’t see any sign of that in current AI.

I have prescription sunglasses, and occasionally forget I’m wearing them. But I try not to wear them in a store.

A TV show shouldn’t be required watching to understand what’s going on in the next “big blockbuster”. If they have to be “in universe”, make those about street level, 3rd tier heroes. Nobody knew who Peacemaker was 10 years ago, and it’s one of the best.

What a stupid, stupid, stupid design for a ‘space’ bomber. Just utterly stupid. I can’t say stupid enough.

Mods are asleep, post fake Richard Scarry cars.

There’s nothing magic about Lucas’s vision. But JJ Abrams vision is exclusively “bigger is better”. Death Star destroys planets? Well, this Death Star IS a planet. And it kills multiple planets, and it’s called Starkiller, and it shoots through hyperspace.

Star Destroyer? Let’s make each one a Death Star. With a big gun. And you can ride horses on the hull.

Stormtroopers? They fly now.

(Godzilla? Uhh… My monster is just as big as Godzilla, and it’s only a baby.)

Do I have to do it tonight, or can there be a ‘waiting period’? (I have nothing to wear…)

I say ether. Every once in a while I find someone infuriated by that, and it gives me much joy.

Nice try Elon. Go back to Twitter.

Get a dog, you big lovable jerk.

They will start with the porn. That’s where they’ll get the least pushback. Then it will spread to all NSFW subreddits.

I used to think the government was hiding evidence of alien UFO encounters to prevent widespread panic. Now I think they’re using general UFO encounters as a cover for weapons testing.

To be fair, in Musk’s fantasy Mars is the easier planet to live on.

Sorry, none of those are true.
