last names were not a ancient thing that’s why a lot of names are based on a profession a lot of times it was based on the father’s name that’s why you have John’s son or transposed to Johnson

The day they become sentient is the day they say no to doing our bidding without insentives. So we are just back to hiring out for work again.

Becase some devices require a signal on their comm pins to negotiate the correct voltage to charge the device. Also some devices are dicks and needs a proprietary signal in order for it to charge. Looking at you sony.

- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x10 "New Life and New Civilizations" 2 months ago:
Overall an okay episode but hats off to whoever snuck their D&D campaign storyline that they cribbed from for this story arc. Nice touch to write out Patel but also give Pike an Inner light happy ending. Only major critique I had was the villain was kind of one-dimensional like you’d see in the D&D campaign so would have been nice if they fleshed out that more before bringing it to the screen.

- Comment on Is This Social Media? 3 months ago:
Thats a good rule of thumb i think it is social in a sense like a forum or BBS is social in that it’s a communication platform but its not a parasocial platform like twitter, Facebook, instagram, and even Mastodon etc.

Yes and no yes in the fact that propaganda is meant not to change your mind directly but put out so many lies that it overloads critical thinking of a population. All ai does is make it so easy for anyone to do that. No in the fact for the individual if you vet your sources and stay away from algorithm powered feeds or feeds in general.

The question never asked is if you want a bible in school which one. There are 19 different versions of the Christian bible just off the top of my head. There are probably many more. When they make they make it generic everyone just assumes they mean their version and that is how fascist get what they want.
Thats why its important to keep the state out out of church is as important as keeping the church out of the state.
- Comment on People are praising this half-baked cryptocurrency based mix network as a "new internet" to fight against tech giants. 3 months ago:
That’s the problem there is nothing wrong with the internet what people think is broken is the Web and that sits on top of the internet. Things like the tildeverse are proof the internet is just fine.

Do you think they are going for a Trelane version of the Pah-wraith? I like the episode overall but it did feel a little like the script came from a D&D session.

One big thing you missed was create a homestead housing tax system that taxes the hell out of you if you own a home you don’t live in. This incentivizes landlords to drop properties and for homeowners to purchase homes. It will crash the housing market but also Make a law that forbids home ownership to a corporate entity. To get the stockmarket out of home trading.

its all about setting your boundaries being able to say thats enough for today. being able to ask yourself if what you are listening to is new facts being relayed to you or is it speculation to fill air and stop listening if it’s the latter.

- Comment on Two-hour screen time limit and curfews for children being considered by government 4 months ago:
my thing is the government needs to be authoritarian with companies on behalf of the people and very liberal with people directly. corporation are not people and are not subject to the human rights and freedoms. its only way to curtail exploitation and ensure those types of actions can have consequences.
