She's too dangerous to let out in the wild. She almost certainly has dirt on a large number of very high rollers. She'll have some complications from COVID soon and even the best medical care won't be able to save her.

One of the better ways I've heard the human/ant analogy explained in relation to the AGI/human intelligence gap that will exist within a nanosecond of an ADI being created goes like: There are ants everywhere. I think by biomass, they're at the top of the animal kingdom. But we normally don't give a...

This guy fucking NAILED it on Pelosi's bullshit. See 4:14 in the video where he predicts the future with 100% accuracy. Anyone who thinks our government isn't Pro Wrestling for the masses is delusional. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbZxPV6OscM And here's a Republican Congressman walking straight ...

Doesn't really include anything other than a cash grab for the donor class. And enough $ to average Americans to buy shit groceries for a couple weeks for a family.

Shit homie, even Sam Harris has said that if we had credible intel that China was about to bring a true AGI online tomorrow we'd have to seriously consider a nuclear strike to stop it. That level of self-improving super intelligence can't be in anyone else's hands but ours. And every other country f...

This technology is what will end up paving the way for true AGI. A system that can analyze nearly infinite possibilities instantly and make decisions accordingly. One thing we cannot let China get ahead of us on is having the first AGI. That shit is going to be a world changer, and whatever country ...

Absolute. Total. Horse shit. I'm seriously wondering when the people that have been hurt the most by this pandemic are going to get serious about burning Washington to the ground. If Turtle Neck, Pelosi, Schumer, et all's heads ended up on stakes outside the Capital, I'd have a hard time finding fau...

I love that Trump is out lefting Turtle neck, and in the process hamstringing those shit bags Loeffler and Perdue from my 'hood.

Jimmy Dore's been trending lately since he's pushing AOC and her cohort to force a M4A vote or they won't vote for Pelosi as Speaker again. So he's in the middle of a dust-up with a bunch of Neoliberals, including AOC and Cenk Uygur of TYT. Like his politics or not, Jimmy's been on the front lines f...

No shit. I had no idea she was that old.

And what's with the fucking Dachshunds?

Yeah. Not exactly the dog that screams "ultra trail running companion". Cool dogs, though. If you don't mind spine issues later in life.

Re the nomad life: I don't buy for a second that it's a lifestyle. I have known a lot of people who lived in non-traditional ways, from communes to "intentional communities" (I think I've uncorked that rant already), you name it. I was also a fulltime RVer and have met a lot of people who...

Dirt Diva seems like a genuine human being. One of the few. Yep. Always liked her for some reason. Probably because I've exchanged a few very bad demons for some "healthy" demons in my day as well. Sometimes you can't pick whether you have a demon, you just get to choose the flavor. She c...

ST: What is it now, 30-40 years without a damned thing to show for it other than some pretty math that's failed to make a prediction that's ever been verified? Although, I will say that Brian Greene is one of the best science communicators/educators in the world. I'm pulling for him to make some rea...

I think the argument that's most in favor of the simulation hypothesis might be the computer code that popped out of some of Gates' ST calculations. The math is way over my head, but apparently there's a self correcting algorithm or something similar that he discovered in the some of his ST equation...

That's an cool TR3 in the video. I had a '58 with the overdrive transmission when I was just out of college. Sold my TR6 I'd had forever to buy it. That little Triumph was the best car I ever owned.

I just finished Sean Carroll's new book "Something Deeply Hidden" where he goes into detail about the Many Worlds interpretation of QM. The basics are thus: The Schrodinger Equation has proven remarkably accurate in explaining the probability of the wave function of particles. The basics a...

It ought to be an easy win for the Dems. But honestly their sheer incompetence at pretending to be regular normal people is shocking. If they lose the presidency it's 100% an own goal. Pelosi's ice cream stunt on whatever late night talk show that was is a prime example. During the height of our ec...

I think it's going to be a total bloodbath for the Republicans. Trump is looking more unhinged by the day. The Senate forcing Barrett through after they blocked Obama's pick by saying there shouldn't be a SC seat filled close to an election. Actual economy, not the stock markets, looking pretty gri...

I just wish Pelosi would get the ax as well. She's one of the more useless human beings on the planet.

2.83 Liberal Airhead here.
I think the only thing that got me that high of a score is my answer on the rapist/molester question. Kill those motherfuckers.

One other thing I've always wondered is why there's never been a big push to pursue Thorium fission reactors. The liquid salt reactors that use Thorium as the fissile material are apparently a c hair away from being melt down proof. If they overheat, the liquid salt expands to the point that the fis...

Assuming +Alpha fusion is perfected and commercialized in the next 10 years, you still have to factor in the enormous amount of sunk cost in the current fossil fuel economy. The average car has about a 15 year life cycle now. So every IC car sold will likely be on the road for a decade and a half be...

One of the subject matter experts for the documentary, Tristan Harris, was on Sam Harris' podcast this week. It's on my cue of things to listen to some time this coming week. I can't watch the doc since we don't have Netflix, but I'm sure someone will boot leg it soon enough. What I'm hoping Sam get...
