And the “f” from “way” is how they’ll be profitable.

The future I want is people bidding for trade routes through a wormhole?

You’re right, better to leave the mentally ill in charge than elected officials.

I’m here with your regular reminder that is you see someone stealing food, no you didn’t.

I would say capitalism is the cancer, but conservatism sure supports it.

Which one is the psycho, and which one isn’t?

Neither. I’m pretty sure therapists are not using “how do you play The Sims” as a diagnostic tool, and if you think the situation you laid out is enough to diagnose anything about a person that just shows how woefully misinformed you are on the topic.

A number of individuals individually deciding that your post is stupid, irrelevant, or off topic does not a hivemind make.

“Appeal to Popularity/Appeal to the Masses” is also not a compelling or interesting argument.

If there are good reasons for your religion to say something or for “everyone” to agree with something then state those reasons instead of vaguely implying their existence.

You are being downvoted because your argument is shit, not because people are “allergic to morals”.

The guy on the YouTube video or online forum will more like have comments stating they are wrong if their information is incorrect. The AI will keep insisting it is correct even if pushed.

It’s because Appeal to Authority is a poor argument, especially when other people don’t recognize the authority you are appealing to.

“My religion says you can’t do X” will never be a compelling argument or recieved well.

Also the “doll modding” community is a thing that exists and takes a lot of skill to do well.

Despite my better judgement, World of Warcraft and Blizzard in general. I know Blizzard isn’t Blizzard anymore, and they are constantly releasing patches that have clearly ignored bug reports (for example they had a content patch that included a “hide and seek mode”. Hunters were able to use their ‘track humanoids’ ability during it, and hiding players would get disqualified for “being idle”. These issues where reported by people playing on the beta test servers yet somehow still made it into production) and sound like they are having AI make decisions for them. But I still read articles about what they’re upto next out of some bizarre curiosity that stops me from looking away from the train wrek.

If that’s not the very definition of a categorically unsustainable business model, I don’t know what the fuck is.

So is expecting infinite growth in a finite system and they’ve been doing that for years.

They want Trump to create the guardrails (the exact guardrails they tell him to create) before the midterms and the Republicans lose a bunch of seats.

Netflix had a different type of license they negotiated with the rights holder. They didn’t just buy DVDs retail and start mailing them around.

You take on the risks.

It’s easier to take on the risks when you’re already rich from inherited wealth.

If we’re lucky Flock can be the catalyst for people turning against all of the other surveillance systems as well

Something easy to take off and stash in my bag.

And the zombies said “all we want to do is eat your brains, maybe we can compromise…”

It’s about being able to easily demonstrate harm to their brand by making it difficult to find them with a normal search.
