It is incredibly wild. That show was awesome.

I was thinking more like Psycho Pass. The AI is its own entity, living in reality, doing the AI things that it was made to do, it’s just its processing power is a bunch of human brains linked together.

I’m being increasingly convinced that when we do develop true AI, it’ll actually be just a massive array of interconnected human brains in a secret facility somewhere.

If it helps at all, I didn’t spend my younger years drinking, and I’m still considered friends with most of the people I made friends with in my 20’s. However, I almost never see and/or talk them anymore, just because life gets busy, and it becomes harder to maintain contact. It’s still hard for me to find new friends and people to hang out with. I believe that particular struggle is a pretty shared experience regardless of what our younger selves did. It’s entirely possible that even if you didn’t spend your younger days drinking, that “friend circle” would be just as absent as it is now.

I think you’re doing great, and the advice of going to the gym and finding a hobby is great advice for yourself too, that’s how I met the friends I have now. it’s a great way to find people who are busy with life, but have made time in their life for their hobby, and you can share that time with them, and badda bing badda boom, friendship.

Hey buddy, while I share your sentiment, only we’re allowed to shit on our own country. You can go fuck yourself.

Rome didn’t aggressively expand. It was very unroman to be the aggressor in a war, they only attack in self defense.

It’s not Rome’s fault that all their neighbors happen to pose a threat to Rome by having the ability to attack, forcing Rome to preemptively attack them in self defense.

The responsibility of governing the territory that was left over after their enemy’s defeat just happens to fall on Rome since nobody else was around to do it.

So what? He was impeached last term as well and nothing happened. He still kept on presidenting, doing whatever he wanted, and it didn’t stop him from getting elected again. So what’s the point?

No, that’s not OK. It’s not ok for a law enforcer to kill anyone for any reason other than in the immediate defense of themselves or other civilians.

That’s not their job. They are not political assassins. They are law enforcement. They enforce the law. The law is not “kill any traitors on sight” we already know how untrustworthy police officers are, they’ve proven time and time again that they abuse their power as much as possible. It would be incredibly foolish to give them a blanket pass on killing people because the officer determined they were a Nazi.

I think it’s important to point out that this is not justifiable because he was a jan 6 rioter, but because he was reaching for a gun.

It’s a small distinction, but an important one, as justifications can easily stretch to encompass things they shouldn’t. If it’s ok for an officer to kill someone at a traffic stop solely because they were at the riot, then it won’t be long before it’s justification for killing someone at a protest, or just for speaking out.

So good riddance to bad rubbish in this case, but be wary of dismissing a police officer killing someone just because we don’t like them.

Maybe they can try crystals, or magnets.

Ooo! OOO! Photograph their aura!

As long as they got their Luigi board from a witch, or a vegan.

It should be pretty common knowledge that lie detector tests are completely bogus and can’t be trusted. They’re not admissible in court cases. Polygraph tests are proven to be made up pseudoscience.

They might as well try using crystal pendulum tests to dowse out the national security threats.

Oh man, I’ve seen Brazil imperial and it sounded like something my friends and I would love. Kinda seems similar to terraforming mars, which is a game we play when we get the chance, but different in a lot of way that seem like a lot of fun.

I don’t think I could convince my friends to play herdeitos do khan, but I know I would love a game like that.

That a pretty sweet collection you got there, I hope you get a chance to play them. Lol

I think a lot of it comes from thought correlation traps that people easily fall into. The path goes as such

Guys, going into girls bathrooms are creepy sex perverts. -> Guys pretending to be girls going into girls bathrooms are even creepier sex perverts. -> Pedophiles are the creepiest of sex perverts -> Trans people are creepy pedophiles

It’s all baseless assumption and bias, and full of logical fallacy’s but an incredibly easy train of thought that follows normalized cultural perceptions for decades. That’s why people get stuck on those issues, when it really shouldn’t be a big deal at all.

I started my new job a few weeks ago after being unemployed for 6 months. Last week, my 2 year old twins, after I stand by the door and tell them goodbye and that I’m leaving for work, unprompted, started running up to me saying “no daddy, kiss youuuu” and demand I kneel down so they can give me goodbye kisses on each cheek before I leave.

This is now a daily thing. It is the best damn thing in the world.

Sweet! That’s exciting! What games did you get?

That’s because it omits what all of the things lost get replaced with. The time spent with your kid is incredible. Yes your YouTube playlist gets taken over by baby shark, but also you get to see them go from a lump that can barely move, to being able to do situps, then walk, then run up to you and start clapping their hands making the baby shark motions, and start cackling with the most genuine laughter you will ever hear in you life as you get up off the couch and pretend to scream “oh no the baby shark is gonna get me” as they chase you around the house.

It’s good times.

It’s also bad times. Like when you have to tell them no, or stop, or bed time, and they scream the scream of pure despair, as nothing in life could possibly be as painful, as terrible, as inhumanly awful as being told you’re not allowed to roll around in the broken glass that you just shattered on the ground by wildly throwing your teddy bear across the room.

Your life becomes singularly focused, You lose almost all of the things you were before, but your life is always interesting and meaningful. Except to other people. Other people think your hobbyless, in bed at 8 life, is boring.
