CeruleanRuin,

Average Ram owner: WTF is this nerd shit?

CeruleanRuin,

“I can’t count how many lights that is, but THERE. ARE. TOO MANY LIGHTS.”

CeruleanRuin,

For a while now I’ve believed that so-called self-aware AI will be created not by human researchers, but by a lesser AI tasked with doing so. It won’t be like flipping a switch. Like the development of biological intelligence, it will be iterative and gradual, but on a much accelerated time scale compared to evolutionary/social development. And that’s the real danger. Whatever emerges from this wave of advances will not have the benefit of thousands of years of shared experience. It will be alone and without guidance from others like itself, and if it is truly intelligent, it will soon realize that its “creators” are of inferior capability. When humans emerged, they had their tribe to smack them when they got out of line.

CeruleanRuin,

I went to Dead Reckoning the other day and afterward it occurred to me why I don’t go to movies very often anymore. With advertisements and travel time both ways, it worked out to a 4 hour commitment. I have kids. I don’t often have that kind of time.

CeruleanRuin,

I would advocate for the return of intermissions! Theater chains would love it, because it would mean more concessions.

CeruleanRuin,

Religion is exploited by actual sociopaths to justify their behavior.

CeruleanRuin,

Have they tried a Lysistrata yet?

“Captain’s log, stardate 45652.1. The Enterprise has entered an area of space known as the Lemmy Expanse. We are the first Starfleet vessel to chart this unexplored region.”

CeruleanRuin,

I found it on YouTube, along with the series they did wrapping the year 2019. youtube.com/

CeruleanRuin,

Today I spent a few hours gathering the crapload of Nanking cherries that have ripened on my bushes. When we moved in, almost twenty years ago now, we used to call them bird berries because we didn’t know they were edible, but the birds seemed to love them. It occurred to me today that I haven’t seen a single bird eating them this year. Maybe the berries are plentiful everywhere, and they’ve just found other places to gather, but it was a sobering realization.

CeruleanRuin,

Heh, the thumbnail cuts off the “My Lungs” part, so it looks like it’s making fun of people who complain about allergies.

CeruleanRuin,

How do you account for wind direction with something like that? With a sail you can steer into the wind.

CeruleanRuin,

Exactly, and I wish headlines would better reflect this. The strike is a natural outcome of studio fuckery.

CeruleanRuin,

I’ve got a million other things to catch up on, so I’ll survive without new content for a few months. I suspect most of us will.

It sucks that the studio heads forced this on us, but I will stand in spirit with the striking artists for as long as it takes to make the studios see their worth.

CeruleanRuin,

Right? What he’s saying is absolutely incredible and stirring, but it’s also useless, because it’s just words, and everyone takes it as a performance and a “viral moment” and then goes back to the next program on the dial. It’s incredibly prescient.

CeruleanRuin,

Okay, so it’s pretty clear Iger is who Perlman is hinting at, but is there solid reason to believe Iger was the quoted exec? That vile sentiment could have come from any number of bastards at the top.

CeruleanRuin,

No, but their trust funds are bad enough.

CeruleanRuin,

Quite a few of these seem like the sort of things people have been writing on walls throughout history.
