Is this the guy that swatted the granny?

So Minority Report, but with A.I. Great… what could go wrong with that.

Oh sorry. Reading comprehension is not my strong point… 😀 Carry on.

Which is why I said neither of these should be acceptable.

I understand how creepy this is but why is this any different than the 1000s of cameras on poles literally everywhere these days. Neither of these should be acceptable

Autistic people I’ve come into contact with have been some of the smartest people I’ve ever met. Sometime weird or socially awkward but generally really smart.

But I like weird. You don’t remember the normal people.

I lost an entire semester of college due to UFO: Enemy Unknown (a.k.a. X-COM: UFO Defense). This was in ‘94. I really need to go look at the later games. But man I loved that game.

Well in his defense, that language was sorta AI generated. Very glad the project isn’t. This looks like something I’m very interested in.

Or since this was only in a month, 60000 employees for that same month.

But imagine having a software studio with 1000 skilled developers to work on a project for 5 years. I have several good game ideas I could have created in that time frame. Some might even have made money. Likely not half a billion dollars but still….

This just screams money laundering though.

Yeah that does sound scary. I guess by golf cart I mean a very small simple car. I have some interstate driving to get to work so doing only 45 would likely get me killed.

I just want a 70 mph enclosed golf cart that can go 150M, charge at home in a few hours, has a tablet size screen that does CarPlay and some speakers, and won’t kill me in a fender bender. I don’t need giant screens, self driving, door latches that won’t work without power, butt warming seats, integrated entertainment system, etc. Oh and maybe have it cost less than my first house (I had a cheap house)

I’m 55 and I share the sentiment. The difference is I’ve been in IT for 30+ years and I still get giddy when I’m setting somewhere and can access my own servers that I run.

I live in rural NC so right now I have either spectrum, which I hate because spectrum, 3Mbps DSL, or Starlink. I want fiber so bad I can taste it. I’d kill for a fiber co-op in my neighborhood… seriously… who you want offed?

Yeah eventually they will figure out to nullify the old cheap lifetime subscriptions.

Isn’t that the good thing about a laptop … essentially built in UPS?

It’s all about time management. I have lots of requests from family/friends that I don’t want to have to do lots of work on. My stuff I want I tinker with. I’ll transcode and optimize and make sure the naming is what I want. Other stuff… don’t care. If it’s watchable it’s fine.

Isn’t this the dead internet theory

Those tires are much larger so you could just tax them more. Plus a pneumatic tire can only hold so much weight which is why they are 18 of them on a huge truck. Not to mention more load causes more wear on the tire so they go through them quicker. I mean it’s not perfect, lots of things affect tire wear like road surface, road smoothness, alignment, etc. Maybe you keep the diesel fuel taxes and just tax tires on passenger cars. Maybe give a tax break to small diesel cars to offset the double tax. Just brainstorming…

Probably an unpopular opinion but this is to offset a federal fuel tax they aren’t getting since it’s an EV. It could be calculated better based on miles but that opens up a privacy issue.

My solution is due away with all fuel taxes and tax tires. They have a know wear rate based on miles, and don’t have any privacy issues like location tracking.

How much longer before the yearly/monthly goes up this much.
