Oh, okay. I’ve never had that happen before. I do know Simple Wikipedia, though; it’s handy!

Why did you give me Simple Wiki? lol en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle
- Comment on Nanobots will be used to attack people, rendering guns obsolete 1 week ago:
Well, I’m thinking along the lines of Sun Tzu’s general philosophy of “Don’t kill needlessly.” It’s why China will never nuke Taiwan; they want its semiconductor factories and other resources, including human labor. Same with the US and Russia, perhaps… By the way, I am strictly in this scenario talking about military application, not merely home defense/individuals fighting. I could have clarified that from the start, I’m now realizing, so my mistake.

Don’t rain on my parade! 😭

Stupidity is a good-enough reason for that!
- Comment on Nanobots will be used to attack people, rendering guns obsolete 2 weeks ago:
Because converting your enemy to further do your bidding is way better than just killing them, of course!

Those are the ones that were still beneficial!

Well, they’re not mine and rather evil mega corps’ or PMCs’ from MGS, but yeah, that’s what I had in mind…

Thanks, that’s fine. I don’t think it’ll be a problem at all, since I read the entire plot summary to The Substance and was still floored upon watching it (though apparently some of the wording in the article was confusing so I didn’t even understand the whole plot lol).

What do you mean by “believe?” They’re already out there; do you not follow the news? inside.lk/…/microscopic-robots-offer-new-hope-for…

Or, again, injects nanobots through that stinger, which then take control of your body. Why let a perfectly fine slave body go to waste by dying?
- Comment on Nanobots will be used to attack people, rendering guns obsolete 2 weeks ago:
When I say, “their bodies are yours,” I’m talking about the nanobots being used to mind-control or pacify them, not kill them.

Gimme the spoiler tag! I wanna watch this!

Why would you destroy potentially useful human resources?
- Comment on Nanobots will be used to attack people, rendering guns obsolete 2 weeks ago:
I’ve actually never seen that! I guess I’ve gotta, now!

- Comment on U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday 3 weeks ago:
Um, they absolutely do. Stop by /r/churning if you’d like evidence; it’s one of the main reasons BNPL services aside from credit cards are not used much there.

For the
amounts and time scales**hard inquiries of BNPL, though, I don’t entirely see the point.FTFY

Wait, you keep temporarily allowing then over and over again? Why temporary?

… for which all solutions are pitifully incapable, relatively speaking.
- Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright 2 months ago:
The easiest way to implement this is to avoid the IoT entirely. I strive to avoid any smart products that cannot be perpetually used offline (a.k.a. most of them).

- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 2 months ago:
Well, I’m not a dev and did that just for SideQuest access, so it’s easy enough… but yeah, for those wishing (near-)total anonymity, I see what you mean…
- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 2 months ago:
Right, so the issue is how many devs will stay motivated to keep developing knowing that staying unregistered may significantly reduce users’ draw…
