There are universes where he’s more of a scientist.
- Comment on How much more progressive are European views as compared to progressives in America? 6 days ago:
I question whether that can occur in a good way. I don’t see human greed going away, better to cage it under heavy control and not get complacent.

Millennium as in 2000-2100 not millennial as the generation.

We do both. The problem is corporations and stupid people. See Monsanto, the non-GMO push and the results of golden rice or similar.
- Comment on Famicom Disk Writer Kiosk Advert 2 weeks ago:
Because while cool it is quite likely it didn’t seem that the sales were good enough to bother translating and patenting. Tbh American/European culture is very different so they probably didn’t think it would succeed when it wasn’t very successful at home.

Eventually we’ll make agi instead of this llm bullshit. Assuming we don’t destroy ourselves first.

These types of roles are extremely limited in modern news. They often involve reporting from within active war zones e.g. all the journalists killed by Israel. You don’t just say you’re going somewhere and fuck off the org will want to know where you are and what work you’re doing so they’re not just paying you to fuck about the countryside.

Probably somewhat yeah. How much is a harder question.

I didn’t say anything about safety considerations just that everything can be unisex if you’re brave enough.

That’s the current trajectory for corporate internet in general.
- Comment on If you are in the US, and a karen threatens to call ICE on you, what's the best course of action? 4 weeks ago:
Still similar advice, get away, have a manager or ally deal with them. The point is to try and deescalate by removing yourself from the situation. If they prevent that and continue escalating then you escalate to the level needed to get away and call the cops on them.

Act like you can’t hear and get away. If she grabs or tries to block moving away then escalate to what is required to get away.

No one is rich enough to not suffer from authoritarian rule. Ask Jack Ma how that went. China also regularly seems to replace high level officials when Xi wants. There’s no meaningful court if an authoritarian government decides you’re guilty because they’re also the ones appointing the judges.
- Comment on I get texting and driving being a danger. But back in my day you could eat drink change radio stations etc. Why weren't laws implemented back then? 5 weeks ago:
I’d rather die than deal with the ads thats cabs play nowadays.
I report and low rate shitty drivers, no real option for that for cabs.

A mix of 3 and 2.
They already made modified red wolves and called them dire wolves and named them after GoT.

There’s a fair bit of humor you miss out on if you’ve only seen clips and memes. Most of my irl friends have seen it and blazing saddles, though that could be my fault…

If you look into it an amazing amount of them are further funded by Russia. Not solely but enough to make them bigger than they’d be otherwise.

Why you putting poptarts on pizza?

The filling is like a bad taxidermy. You know what it is but it’s just not right. Icing is more of the same. The biscuit(?) part is cake flavored cardboard.
- Comment on Brad buys a house 1 month ago:
Yeah, basically what happened to Florida and a part of why it went from swing state to Red.
- Comment on Brad buys a house 1 month ago:
Yeah, moving to lower cost of living will make you relatively rich. It’s a reason people sometimes retire to rural (lower tax-red) areas. However, If you’re still working the usual problem is that the jobs also pay less and “amenities” are also less. Fewer good restaurants, less option for entertainment, worse schools, etc.

Honestly, me and wife on that one. Sure we’ve tried it but neither of us really enjoyed it. So we haven’t done it again…doesn’t stop me from making the jokes though.
- Comment on Do you think he'll respond? 1 month ago:
Specifically for medical stuff, they swipe your number and email when you take the MCAT. I was debating an MD/PhD so I took it and even never applying or getting into med school they’d randomly email me, for like 5y after.

Neither grandpa knows guns and ironically enough would likely be against actually owning them. I already know how to use a gun since I’m from SC and had friends take me skeet/target shooting. However, I’m currently in NY where ownership is a major pain and personally dont trust a gun in my home.
