I love to learn, but mostly I come to imgur to chill. I'm open to chatting about anything, but my favorite subjects are programming, economics, psychology, history, physics, and woodworking.

Also, AI will take any jobs they can do comfortably. So basically, they need to start cleaning houses again... as the judeo-christian god intended

I loved Ilyukhina in the book. She was funny and down-to-earth, and the reason there was heroin on the ship, which is its own funny plot line. I was sad she didn't make it into the movie as much

No, the two biology team members got caught in the blast. She was one of the mummies that Ryland woke up next to.

Oh. i just noticed, the head covers the whole disk, and reads from all the grooves simultaneously... so this fisher price toy doesn't work that way. (doh)

On a record, aren't the grooves in a spiral? so the head slowly progresses from the outside of the disk to the inside?

I would imagine this would be great over calm water or flat ground... but completely stupid over the open ocean...

When "Lines of code" = "output" then yes... AI can help your workforce 10x their "output"... Good luck maintaining your 10x AI slop codebases

I'm sure it was from previous toss attempts. Perhaps the tosser had spread some liquid on the suction cup to help it stick? Man... pretending to be innocent is hard...

The drone tagged the truck, and now they're frolicking happily on a farm a little out of the city. Now instead of war, the truck and drone get to play with lots of old dogs, and ponds full of goldfish!

After some skeptical googling, looks like tradition is for the trophy to be presented by the FIFA president and the head of state of the host country. Looking at pictures of the last few decades of winning teams, there are occasionally some guys not on the teams (possibly coaches/managers by their dress, not politicians) so it still seems like Donut Turd photobombed, but him being there wasn't super weird...

If we prevent AI DCs from being built in the US, they will build them overseas! Then, when the AI bubble pops, who's going to bail them out? CHINA!?!?!

Inspecting the troops is an essential function of a totalitarian dictator. The troops need to feel validated and valued so they can ignore any misgivings they might have while performing their extortion / suppression duties. The leader's presence gives the troops the impression that he will have their back if public opinion turns against them.

FWIW, in 2016 I was still a republican, but I refused to vote for DT, and my dad got upset with me and said "Primaries are where you express your preference! In the main election, you vote with the party!" So the same issue exists on team red as well...

Listen here you little... Obama's last turn ended in January 2016, it's currently July 2026, that's 10 years, and ~6 months... We feel old enough without having to do math to defend how young we are.... which definitely defeats the purpose

Well (some) Christians appropriated it. It's a story about having something that tempts you constantly, and you can be slowly taken over by evil if you give into it... Purity culture youth pastors had a field day with that....

Tolkien almost certainly didn't have that in mind, but Christians aren't super careful when it comes to interpreting... just about anything.,..

Haha. My christian parents made me throw away Pokemon cards, and forget about Harry Potter... but LOTR was fine... and CS Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia was encouraged. I guess only the bad guys used magic though.. huh

My 6th grade christian school teacher wouldn't let me read LOTR in between classes, because (and i quote) "Dungeons and dragons is satanic, and was based on Lord of the Rings"... So at least your mom's reason made some kinda goddamn sense.

I'm not informed enough to hold grudges against individual representatives... but I do generally wish for the average age of our representatives to decline drastically and quickly... Does that count?
