yeah i think so, too. i think that automation should count.

irobot as of 2024 sold 50 million roomba says bing

i would prefer not to use auction style estimates

I’m going to count that as (11*t)*1,000,000,000 and use it as a statistical bumper in the final analisis

Player’s choice. That idea is eschewed for hopes of an finding a community first estimate. Then either parring or adding from there.

I’m not convinced that there might not be more robots now than humans.

Did you know that fascist regimes generally prefer audio dubbing films and tv shows instead of subtitles because then they get to control what the dialog says to their captive citizens ? And if most citizens can’t speak the foreign language and can’t read lips they never find any changes because how could they ?

Google is doing the same thing here. But with your own content.

funny way to express the sentiment “death to xians”

make a reservation at a fancy restaurant and show up in flannel pajamas, jacket, necktie, shoes heck throw and in spats and a monocle and i’ll watch this space

Cities are such a blight on the landscape. Better to let the land grow wild!

I’d had to think that The Harpers would frown upon such machinations against nature.

How many zvin ads do i have to sit through so that Sergey can be that much richer ?

What a fucking joke that would be on US American networks.

We are ranked like 30th in the world for bandwidth. No fiber dropped to the curb but the billionaires. And shit slow 20th century wireless speeds with technical acumen that we see today in Verizon’s ongoing 8 hour outage.

Bezos is so out of touch it is clown-like.

They want a data center heavy world but have no fucking pipeline to get data in and out for the rest of us.

What a human dildo.

Verizon tried to charge me a dollar for an emailed version of some instructions their CSR was flubbing on the phone.

Glad to see that they seemed to have found their dollar somewhere else.

I’d prefer you lost your internet privileges instead.

The beholder (eye tyrant, sphere of many eyes) is most frequently found underground, although it infrequently will lair in desolate wildernesses. The globular body of this monster is supported by levitation, and it floats slowly about as it wills. Atop the sphere are 10 eyestalks, while in its central area are a great eleventh eye and a large mouth filled with pointed teeth. The body is protected by a hard chitinous covering. The creature’s eyestalks and eyes are also protected, although less well. […] Because of its particular nature the beholder is able to withstand the loss of its eyestalks, these members are not computed as part of its hit point damage potential, and lost eyestalkswill eventually grow back (1 week per lost member). The body of the monster can withstand two-thirds of its total damage potential, while the great central eye can withstand one-third this total …

added for context not to be argumentative … it came out in '75 … my copy of the MM is from 1977

the same way that they were dealt with in WW2 seems to be the only way to deal with fascists at all

they don’t care about laws, courts, Congress, guidelines, ethos, ethics, morality, the Constitution, or promises … they got nothing but violence to offer … remember “it will be bloodless if the left let’s it be bloodless” ?

well that was bullshit. they brought the bullets; we brought the blood.

and now because of that only violence can beat violence at this point.

One last chance might be a general strike and hope to starve them out. But I’ve lost faith in that happening.

adobe lost market because of adobe’s eternal game of fuck the customer just a little bit more each year

jehan saw that gap and utilized labor and status to make a useful tool for humanity.

be like jehan not like adobe

i think that i’ve seen some “historical battle” videos of some sort of acronym where the bigger guy in armour just body slammed the smaller guy in armour regardless of weapons.

mass equals a lot in fighting giving equal fighting abilities

fancytalk for a double standard

will you want version control ?
