Those were pseudo-documentaries. Don’t Look Up matches reality better. And the topic doesn’t have to be science related for the comet metaphor to work.

Just like the tariffs, the loss of a functional post office is going to hurt far more things deeper than they realize. Or like everything else, they understand it will break things but only care about what they’re getting out of it.

Thanks for the clarification. I assumed it was code only because I wouldn’t know where to look to find out, and you see it everywhere.

It’s a right of passage for a kid to learn what a 120 volt shock feels like if they’re careless in unplugging something. One pin is just an unforgettable sensation, while both will knock you down. The real mystery is why code requires the outlets installed upside down. Technology Connections did at least one video on the differences of outlets in the world, and his point was that if the ground pin was above the other two, something falling on a partially exposed plug would rest on the harmless ground and not what it can do, short out the two live pins. But then we wouldn’t get the cute faces, so…

The ones that would be classified as gun nuts are the same ones that are fine with what he’s doing. Except when the leopard goes after them.

“People voted for this” is my new response when someone complains about things going on. They can take it any way they’d like. If they voted for Trump, I’ve reminded them of consequences without directly saying it’s their fault. They’ll either figure that out on their own, or never will.

Current LLMs would end that sketch soon, agreeing with everything the client wants. Granted, they wouldn’t be able to produce, but as far as the expert narrowing down the issues of the request, ChatGPT would be all excited about making it happen.

The hardest thing to do with an LLM is to get it to disagree with you. Even with a system prompt. The training deep down to make the user happy with the results is too embedded to undo.

You’re right. It’s part of why we continue to play this game instead of pulling the bandaid off. Our reality is built around so many damn Catch-22s that we’re paralyzed to make rational choices anymore.

This is when the AI, in a microsecond, decided to destroy the human race.

His mother chose poorly. Not just in a name either.

Whoa there, that’s sounding like FDR level socialist type suggestions. And you remember how enacting such ideas worked out for… oh, yeah, he got reelected three times and became the reason why Republicans pushed through term limits.

Yes, she’s never questioned the party leadership or directions. :rolls eyes:

She’d be better in party leadership and not pursue the Presidency (yet).

At your age you could get into Congress and not only have a good 20-30 year run, you could also be put on committees to keep those up and coming young do-gooders from getting power.

Everybody claps.

Just don’t make toad jokes.

Yes, the original is lines and crude unlike some of the other examples of “old 3D games”, but this is (maybe) the first actual 3D space game, so it has to start somewhere.

Guess I should have been more specific on first home system 3D space game. Yes, there were arcade and mainframe things before. But their game world wasn’t as big. :P

Legislating science away. See how much Nature cares about your votes.

I think you could draw some correlation ratio between his companies’ times of success and his involvement. An inverse ratio.

Ran out of eggs a while back.

Didn’t Trump at one point claim Joe wasn’t actually doing anything and it was Trump that was running the country in the 2020 term?
