But which group of people is consistently for unchecked immigration everywhere except Israel?

And which group of people have been driving the leftist train since they invented communism?

We're not in the post-abundance age. You'll know when we are.

I don't know if it's true, but if it were, they're not saying it replenishes locally as fast as you pump it up right there, but that the global rate of oil generation is larger than the global rate of consumption.

At this level of tech, passing the Turing test is mostly about the gullibility of the human.

If people included image links in their posts, it wouldn't be too difficult to add a Greasemonkey/tampermonkey script that converted it to an image. But yeah, ideally the board itself would support it, probably with it being opt-in so people had to click some icon next to the link to expand it into an inline image.

They keep raising the stakes, assuming their own real roles will never become mainstream knowledge.

I'm going to lose several hours to this now. Thanks, man :-)

Mature AI would be able to produce a post-scarcity world for everyone, not just the currently rich. Anyone claiming it'll only be for the rich is either naive, i.e. not knowing better, or cynical, thinking the rich want to kill everyone, or evil, thinking this is their own chance to screw everyone over.

Edit: This guy seems to fall into the third category...

Exactly, and if you turn of the tv,. the smallhatted people are still coming out of the newspapers, magazines, radio and internet.

Neither side has it right, in my opinion.

For weeks after conception, the fetus really is just a clump of cells, not much different from an unfertilized egg or a sperm cell. A woman should absolutely be free to abort it, with the only concern being the medical and emotional toll it takes on her. Sure, it's a sign of being irresponsible if she does it for most other reasons than for example if she was raped - but as an adult that is her problem.

At some point neurons begin to form and link up, when that's gone on for long enough, the fetus becomes able to feel pain and must be said to have some level of consciousness. I don't know exactly when this is, and believe nobody really does. It could be 7 weeks, or it could be 15, but it's a question that ultimately has an answer. After that the fetus should have human rights, and it's no longer an abortion but a killing. Sometimes it might not be unethical to kill it, for example to save the life of the mother, but it would then be the same kind of decision as being in a falling plane with two people and one parachute.

It sounds odd that a bank would be legally allowed to remove that recent a history.

Talking about the corrupt government and the trends that are playing out is in no way "shitting on its generous people".

He was on a youtube livestream only a few weeks back, where someone was spamming the comments offering cryptocurrency to anyone who would give up his location.

Stealing server resources isn't the way to go if it is to become anything more than a shortlived gimmick. If you need servers, someone will need to provide them legally.

I don't see an obvious way for a regular searchengine to be distributed/p2p; both the indexing and search execution aspects would have to be extremely redundant (i.e. inefficient) if the were to withstand the inevitable attempts at sabotage.

We need some kind of opensource community searchengine. It won't be cheap to run though, and I wonder if people would actually pay to support it.

Using documents issued essentially from the government, to confirm the story from the government. It's not a very strong proof.

Underwater archaeology is incredibly interesting! It's high on my list of "things to do if I suddenly had a lot of money" :-) There's almost certainly something to be done by advancing the state of underwater drones a bit, and then automating the bulk of the survey work.

They also leave out the pyramid in Bosnia, which is supposedly also 20.000+ years old.

One thing strikes me here. He offers $10.000 as reward for the information and "all" people have to do is bring him $100.000 that'll he'll hold for however long it takes to investigate the info, and then they'll get it back along with the reward. I'd be suspicious of this, even if I had any information.

This was so crazy I didn't believe it, but there we go. "perinatal death related to a failure to act" - so it'll be legal to let the child die from neglect for a period after birth.

Does this cross anyone's line in the sand?
