“Using just the internet no interaction with people but keep it cash” wat

That’s already happening and people are very mad about it because they think the plants are going to eat them.

I think you just invented communism?

Alright. Sounds like bullshit that you’re going to have to deal with, whether or not we’re facing the AI apocalypse, and I sympathise.

I don’t even really know what a 401k is, I’m not from the US. The fact that globally social security systems are failing due to neglect and tax gifts for the rich is a whole other issue.

That doesn’t mean much. If a person is too old to learn a new job, they should be able to retire. If a person’s cognitive ability is THAT low, so low they can’t learn the simplest of jobs, they should probably be in some care facility or (better) be cared for at home with their caretakers (who’ve had proper training) receiving adequate compensation. Why are we talking, in this context, about people who are unable to work anyway?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m very much against what we’ve come to call “AI” and how it’s taking over everything.

What does “can’t be trained for a new job” mean? Why? What’s keeping them from learning a new thing?

They did want it to be the new PDF.

Babies also don’t just pop into existence.

Unlikely since there must have been at least one other living person around with a functioning uterus to give birth to me. I’ll accept “your parents are slaves in the Glorious Musk Empire.”

Mars.

Why would I want this? Serious question. How would this benefit anyone?

At uni, a teacher of mine once wrote on the blackboard:

Paris in the
the spring

and then had a bunch of people read it out loud. I didn’t get to read it out but the entire time this was going on I was sitting there, questioning my sanity because none of the people chosen to read seemed to notice the second “the”.

That said, I’ve had a few glasses so fuck you.

Not and n/a, cis woman, too old for this shit. I kind of manage to get rid of any rubbish eventually and to avoid mould but people aren’t allowed in the flat. Somehow I never learnt the necessary self discipline and skills for keeping a space presentable, even though my mum was stay-at-home and kept her household shipshape. She just seems to have forgotten to teach me how to do anything. Is what I tell myself while ignoring that my younger sister has little issue in this regard. In my defense, I have ADHD and chronic fatigue.

If there’s any (any!) magic spell I’d like to be able to do, it’s “Eene meene kidney bean, my flat is now clean - hex hex!” I don’t need money or fame or whatever, just a spell to have a clean living space. I can work from there.

Did you mean: hallucinate on purpose?

Wasn’t he going to lay off the ketamine for a while?

Edit: … i hadnt seen the More Context and now i need a fucking beer or twnety fffffffffu-

“INTO the lagoon”, you say? Promise?

Did it promote skepticism and science though? It showed them being applied, sure. In the end though, the show was always on Mulder’s side of the “truth”. Of course it also kind of said “Scully’s work is important” but it was always assumed that her view of any situation would ultimately be the wrong one. Her science-oriented methods break down when it comes to (in the broadest sense) “supernatural” phenomena - because they are, by definition even, outside science.

We don’t have nearly enough shows that promote healthy skepticism and the scientific method though.

It is revealed in passing that Scully used to go by Velma Dinkley.

Srsly.
