So the purpose is to protect them if someone overclocks and fries it, meaning they know if you take it in under warranty and say you want this faulty part replaced?

A plagiarism machine is as sentient as a dummy is in a ventriloquist act.

Could we have sentient AI in the future if we don’t slip into neo-fascism while char-broiling the planet?

Yes, but not yet.

During the Iraq War, Kurt Vonnegut was asked about the anti-war protests… His response was that, during Vietnam, he was part of anti-war protests firing on all cylinders and laser-focused and going to stop that war. He said it was ultimately about as effective as climbing to the top of a ladder and tossing a pie on the ground. This time will be no different.

So I don’t know what you’re hoping to gain. The ‘Ima take my ball and go home’ approach didn’t work out so well in 2016. Threatening not to vote isn’t going to phase anyone in a country where more than half the population doesn’t vote anyway. Maybe instead of threats you should work with other people trying to help the people you want elected get elected.

Ate a platter of 3 different fried insects. I think it was wood worms, bees, and crickets. The bees were the best.

None of them were horrible. Would do it again.

Moodle is.

Out of those 3 options, I would prefer the flashlight.

Even if you already have a flashlight, you can always find another place that would benefit from one nearby.

I also just say that I don’t buy in at all to Darn Tough socks. This person can’t where any other brand of socks? Bullshit. You can just buy new generic socks before you get anywhere close to the price you’ll pay for gourmet socks.

Also depending on the person’s interests, getting them a boardgame could be nice.

OMFG, my fucking nose is gone!

Chrome is feeling its numbers drop, so they’re backing off until people stop paying attention. Then they’ll go right ahead with the plan.

The original Twilight Zone.

Look at what you’re defending.

Finished Divinity Original Sin 2.

Now trying MW5.

LOL

They birthed and normalized shitty internet behavior: rickrolling on the lighter end, trolling, doxxing, and swatting.

They would also do shit like make fun of mentally handicapped people, which would lead goons to harassing the victims IRL and teaching kids that this was all OK.

And they would go after people who talked shit about about them, criticized them, or otherwise attacked them. The 4chan army would come out in force and try to ruin people’s online existence.

Before Q-Anon showed up, they had started calling Trump God Emperor during the election. I think they may just have chose him as the candidate who would cause the most chaos, but it’s easy to see how others others would take their goals more seriously and want Trump as president.

And the cycles of shitty behavior over decades attracted more and more rightwingers. I used to think of them as a chaos collective, but the politics swung hard right.

And then they spread to other platforms with r/the_donald, pepe the frog, and calling each other pedes.

Wow, I stand corrected. Then Legends and Lore is is the Elric-less Deities and Demigods.

TSR had permission from author Michael Moorcock to include Elric but I think the publisher was unaware. And so there was a legal stink that resulted in Elric and Lovecraft being removed in a later edition of Deities and Demigods.

Legends and Lore was 2e.

If that Deities and Demigods has Elric and HP Lovecraft in it, it’s worth something.

Elric is called Elric (obviously). Look for Hastur the Unspeakable. That’s part of Lovecraft. I guess Cthulu was in there, but I don’t remember.

We need bullet trains, not more passenger jets.

People who die while driving are almost all die by accident.

People who get shot are far more likely to be killed intentionally.
