Like a really shitty, dumb version of The Last Question. The prompt goes in now, AI brings it to fruition centuries from now.

Yup!

The only reason I started to enjoy the prequels was because of r/prequelmemes

How can you not enjoy the classic cinematics of III?!

Prodeus is a fun multiplayer DOOM-like with old school vibes
- Comment on I look forward to the day AI becomes sentient and takes over. It can't be dumber than the people currently in charge. If it starts destroying everything I'm comforted by the fact we dont share genes. 1 week ago:
If it means we can take psychedelics and hallucinate with them, I’m in as long as it fully takes over technology and I can hide in the woods

E&A are legit, for sure. One of the best lyricists.
Some unfortunate news, though… Eyedea died in his sleep in 2010. The 3 albums we have are all we’ll get. We lost a good one.

Wish I had some clever anecdote that helped. All I can do is summit as many mountains as I can until the air is unbreathable and do my best to force myself to take the long way down.

I’ll add Factorio to the list of games that deserve the $80 tag. $40 for base, $40 for Space Age expansion. Or don’t get Space Age and go with the mod that spawned Space Age (although not exactly the same).
I get it’s a bit of a niche genre, though. The factory thing the way Factorio does it isn’t for everybody.

Better, even. Much easier to use the porcelain throne this way.

Y’all taking these showerthoughts way too seriously. It’s just a dumb number coincidence that happens to really only work with a particular age group at the current point in time. In a few years it’ll be different, and it isn’t true for every single data point, but this isn’t a philosophical revelation community.
The joke is I said 60s and 70s twice and it mostly works out.
And yea, I’m not relating it to your birth year, but the formative years. My mother is in her mid 60s, born near the end of the '50s, but the childhood years she remembers fondly are all in the '60s.

From sidebar, emphasis mine:
A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming.

As far as I can tell, the other 3 comments are agreeable. Yours was the only one that came off as somewhat antagonistic.
Also, I’m a 90’s kid, so you lost me there, too.
Besides, Simple Math is a decent tune.
- Comment on People currently in their 60s and 70s grew up in the '60s and '70s 2 weeks ago:
Ok, but you missed the point.
I’m in my 30’s, but I didn’t grow up in the '30s.
My grandpa is 90, but he didn’t grow up in the '90s.

Considering Mastodon has been around for a while, but people still flocked to another corporate-structured platform after Twitter, yea. It probably will never not be niche.

Not sure if agreeing with me, but yea that’s pretty much what I was getting at.
Reddit was niche, but I don’t think so anymore. Fidelity bank, Logitech, Microsoft, and many many more have official accounts and support subs on there, and have for many years.

Likely true. On a surface level I just find it interesting how this split up can be used as a summary of the state of the world powers.
- Comment on Best option for hosting ebooks and audiobooks? 2 weeks ago:
I think specific solutions for each type of content would be better in the long term if you have a lot of stuff to host, and management/organization will be better since they are catered to whatever the content type is.
Others have already said it, Audiobookshelf is a good one. For EBooks though, I would highly recommend Calibre Content server. Calibre is pretty much the defacto open source EBook manager out there, a lot of features and abilities specific to ereaders and ebooks of all formats.

Of course! Don’t you know the US applies electoral college to everything? Popular vote doesn’t matter.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
The split up of votes is crazy accurate. 2 shithole countries doing vile things want to keep oppressing another, Ukraine is too busy with their own shit, and everyone else is just trying to keep the peace.
