Oh yes, please protect ducks and kittens from Trump. That creep assaults everyone

I miss LAN parties... Duke Nukem 3D, Doom, CS, Diablo, Alien vs Predator 2, Quake and the successors of those games. Good times. Online is nice and all, but nothing compares to playing the night away with friends in one room

This opening move is called "The Russian Statesman". Very traditional.

Even if done "right" privatization is the wrong choice for a lot of things. Like everything that should be a service for all citizens: postal service, health care, water, electricity, ...

When greed is introduced into these services people will suffer for it. Just look at all the examples of privatizations and show me where the outcome was positive for the people.

  1. Labor
  2. There are a lot of improvements in the making. Agents, memory, self-improvement. It's a young technology.
  3. Currently AI is not good enough to replace people. It's good enough to improve productivity and will probably get better at that. This will be the reason why many people loose their jobs - there might be human level AI in the future but that's hard to predict.
  4. Build more power plants. This is already happening. A problem but not a impossible one.
  5. That is just plain wrong. Try different models and get different results. What the future will bring is hard to predict but artificial data or self improving models might be the solution to the data problem. Time will tell.

Never experienced something like that, especially with metal fans who - in my opinion - are some of the most welcoming bunch.

Perhaps it's different in the US, but here in Germany that scenario seems unlikely.

Better then Trump is a low bar and you know it.

No one sane said that he was a bad president (although he could have been a lot better) just that he is too old for the job.

I would say that anyone younger and progressive would do better than him.

Bernie would have won (according to polls) if the DNC hadn't sabotaged him at every turn. Too polarizing? No, just too left for the Democrats.

They have been researching this since the 80s and the only thing that they sell is their dog drone? No humanoid drones for sale?

And it seems like the AI robot research groups are speed running the whole process.

Still, interesting stuff.

Well, the only thing that could reasonably help us would be to demolish the 1% and the corrupt politicians who support them. And yes, that would include an armed uprising.

Not that that I see that happening unless it gets much worse. We still have (some) bread and games left to pacify the masses.
