The community mods were banning anyone challenging their misinformation and deleting the comments. This is precisely the type of behavior that admins should curtail. It wasnt done in the best way but to call it abuse is a stretch.

We shouldn’t let anti-vaxers have free reign just because they make a community, it’s the same for people that champion animal abuse.

If you aren’t able to decouple your personal beliefs from what is right for your cat, and purposely harm him so he isn’t a “bad mean carnivore”, you don’t deserve to keep him.

If you can’t feed a cat a proper diet reflecting their needs, don’t keep one.

But why wouldn’t you want to help big corporation with their tax returns, you heartless bastard.

I agree, that is why I didn’t bring up the possibility of enslavement or colonization. I’d even say the chances are higher of a civ being benign than not when reaching a space faring stage. I base this on mostly nothing.

I do believe an intelligent creature is probably at least mildly curious. Couple that with the likely hood of an advance civ having enough resources to build whatever projects they want, only a small subset of their population would need to be curious enough to make it a reality.

So their whole argument is that tectonic plates are needed for complex life to emerge. There isn’t much proof for it either way obviously but I find the argument flawed.

In any case, here is why I think aliens are here, either waiting for us to divest ourselves of our economic system and destructive ways (capitalism breaks when you mix in easy space exploration and heavy automation) or observing us and how changes emerge in our society like we do with secluded tribes.

1. Any advanced civ can tell a planet has life on it from a great distance. If simple life is rare, they would of had a probe here a long long time ago.

2. We started modifying the climate over 3000 years ago. Any civ within an 1000 light year range would have had enough time to notice and make it here. That is around 7 million star systems.

3. An advanced civ would have covered every single solar system with Von Newman probes.

I think the fernie paradox is more of a test than a rule. Any civ that can’t pull itself out of the muck is probably bad news for galactic society, so they wait and see.

This is manipulation to sell more copies and nothing more.

In any case, AI voices are empowering to the Indie scene. Fully voiced games used to be exclusive to triple A gaming, indie gevs just simply can’t afford it.

I feel for the voice actors just like I feel for the translators that all had to change domaine ten years ago, but progress is progress and it’s dumb to stifle innovation to save a few jobs.

Well now you can pull one out whenever it starts getting yellow and regrow it. It won’t take many for him to start brushing.

If it’s about having your blog serve as AI training, it doesn’t really matter where you host it, it’s going to get scrapped and included in the data.

The picture is a bit misleading, they are super tiny! Very cool thought.

Now I’m imagining how good of a game I could run with a 3d food printer

Its clearly a rhetorical question and therefore a statement. You were saying “no politician does enough” implying it’s okay for Biden to do the same.

Does that mean we shouldn’t call them out on it and demand more?

Can a Lynx kill four dogs? Seems like a hunt gone wrong.

You line up the apple and cut both at the same time

You would lose ownership the moment they found out about it. I’m not really sure I understand your point and it comes off as a huge false comparison. There is a difference between the laws that are there to protect the general population and the ones meant to protect corporate profits.

The first paragraph alone is gold, this is great

But they didn’t know him like I did

Lmao

Bro, you had near misses because you were using your phone while driving. Don’t do that.

If you have to type in a destination, pull over or wait for a light

It’s a joke, and a good one
