  There is a sci fi series called the Damned Trilogy where warring space aliens stumble across humans and one faction enlists them because they are the most terrifyingly violent species they have ever stumbled upon.

  Then you get back to every other response on this thread, it probably did happen more than once.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Very true, the websites are usually pretty good about detailing what level of information is needed.

  The no proof ones are usually like 5-$25, but if adds up. I just point it out because most people don’t realize that there is always a couple class actions that they can add their name to for payouts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There are websites where you can sign up for class actions (a lot of them require no proof) and they make like a hundred or hundreds each year.

  I would lose the checks before I cashed them probably.

  Your comment reads as if you don’t want them to offer AI, but if they do offer it then you want it to be either Opt-out or no opt out, and that you would prefer it to be a resource hungry AI at that. Is that what you meant to say? Because otherwise I don’t understand.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨monthly challenge⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This makes me think of a really neat business idea… DoorCook! Where your neighbor is your personal cook! You put in an order and a price range and any “neighbors” within the area can bid on the price.

  We synergize our business by avoiding all those pesky regulations like food licenses and let your meal come directly from your loving neighbor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If there's a sort of "apocalyptic" event but there are still surviving communities, will people be able to make eyeglasses again, or are people with vision issues gonna be fucked?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If people survive the “apocalypse” then glasses will survive too. You just likely won’t be lucky enough to get lenses that are a perfect match for your prescription.

  6 out of 7 houses on my street have at least one person with vision problems. Between the six of the houses we probably conservatively have over 50 pairs of lenses if you count all the old pairs people tend to hang on to. My house has at least 10 just by itself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If there's a sort of "apocalyptic" event but there are still surviving communities, will people be able to make eyeglasses again, or are people with vision issues gonna be fucked?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s how it would work in a post apocalypse too. People who wear glasses right now are typically on vision plans that allow for a new pair every year. I have like 5 old pairs, 4 of which no longer are really strong enough.

  So depending on how far down the road post apocalypse you either randomly go through houses until you find a pair good enough, or if enough time has passed there were almost certainly be people specializing in selling glasses and medical things.

  Now if you are far sighted all you have to do is walk into any abandoned CVS and go look through the huge rack of cheater lenses they have.

  I wouldn’t use first appearance in the movie as the character age, that’s silly. Most of them would be an infant or toddler in that case.

  Tangled starts as a baby, Moana starts as a grow up montage, most of the movies have some flashback to early childhood at the very beginning.

  She is 16 which seems to be the statistical mode of Disney Princesses… Most are 16, a few are 18 I think one is 19 and Elsa is the only one of drinking age.

  Then reduce amount off during sales and give people bonus credits whenever they buy something. Bonus credits can be used wherever…

  Or… They can create their own crypto coin and people can buy that with dollars.

  We can get even more convoluted if we need to.
