Not sure either of these counts fully as what OP is looking for, but -

The idea of the technological singularity feels right to me. There’s a whole section on the wikipedia page about scientific objections to it, and I get that, but if we don’t kill ourselves before then, it seems like an event that almost has to occur at some point, to me. And maybe it zigs instead of zags and we get star trek. Or maybe it zags and we get terminator. But probably neither of those I’m guessing, and these days it’s hard to imagine that it would put humanity on a worse trajectory than we seem to be on today.

Similarly, but less seriously (for me) I like to consider the whole “maybe we’re in a simulation” theory.

For the record I wasn’t disagreeing with your point or criticizing it at all. Just trying to give some context that might explain what you were observing.

This would indicate its not a cut and dry as the youtuber suggests and also I would assume he is not a historian(no clue who he is) so its unclear why his opinion or definition of computer program should usurp that of most historians who would recognise a term may change over time and be less well defined initially when inspiring a new technology?

He’s a long-standing member of the tech pundit community (dare I say the Linux community), and in recent years has been exposed as antivax, anti-woke, and a bigot. Before that he was just a confident sounding asshole with sometimes interesting opinions.

Been there, had that conversation.

People are right generally about billionaires.

But she’s constantly in the news doing nice things with her money. Certainly she’s doing more good with it than other billionaires I could name.

Maybe the answer to your question is that she already has.

Do with that info what you will. It’s very helpful sometimes when folks claim mod abuse.

Trans rights are human rights.

So are all other LGBTQ+ rights.

You will never make me believe that Picard would have felt differently, and if you think he would have, I really don’t know how you missed so many of the fundamental messages across all Trek properties.

I didn’t see your comment before the mods removed it, but the beauty of Lemmy is it’s in the modlog.

You’re a disgrace to the fictional character you have chosen for your pfp.

Processing your words is how I determined that you don’t consider us human

Well, goodbye now, and good luck. You can reply if you like, but I won’t see it.

Objectively incorrect

And no, Isreal is not killing nearly as many people,

so far

I’ve had to listen to a year of you shitlibs bleating endlessly about how important it was to vote blue because they’re the lesser evil, now that it turns out Trump was actually the lesser evil, suddenly you’re abandoning that.

You’ll find plenty of comments where I acknowledge that Biden and Harris were bad on this issue, so please, don’t put words into my mouth. My position has been the same. Biden/Harris bad on this issue, Trump worse.

You people genuinely don’t believe foreigners are human, do you? That’s why you care less about saving thousands of lives than you do about whether Trump looks good or not.

Maybe in a few months or years you’ll have a better grasp of cause and effect. Those lives aren’t pawns to me, they are pawns to Trump. You’ve seen his opener so far.

No, I’m not capable of looking two weeks into the future, and neither are you.

I’m capable of knowing how Trump operates though through past experience. And so are you, but you have taken the cake he gave you so you have stopped looking.

I already showed you how meaningless his action was - Israel is just killing the same folks but in a different area now. And I guarantee you it’s only the beginning.

You people genuinely don’t believe foreigners are human, do you?

You’re wrong, but it’s a great way to avoid processing any of my words if you insist that’s the case.

How much do you blame the people who voted for Trump or other fascists?

Every one who can be dead to me is dead to me.

Those who are unfortunately tied to me by blood or marriage get the minimum of interaction that family dynamics require me to give.

That’s how it will stay.

he’s already objectively done more than the Democrats did to reign in Israel

How is it not possible for you (all of you who parrot this) to see that Trump tossed you a brief reprieve so you can make EXACTLY this argument? Are you only capable of looking two weeks into the future or something?

As I say every time: Biden was awful for Gaza. Trump is also awful for Gaza, and then he’ll take down as much of the rest of the world and the US with it as he can.

You are literally and transparently doing exactly what Trump wants you to be doing right now, because it legitimizes him.

Israel Invades Jenin Days After Signing Gaza “Ceasefire”

Israeli leaders suggest the operation was plotted during a backroom deal made during Gaza ceasefire vote

Among those killed by Israeli forces on Tuesday was a civilian named Abed Alwahhab Saadi. In footage posted online, he can be seen walking unarmed along an empty road as he suddenly comes under fire and begins to run before being shot and falling face down in the ground. Another shocking video shows a family repeatedly being targeted by gunfire while driving in their car, reportedly killing another civilian, Ahmed Nimer Obeidi.

Medics also came under attack, with at least three doctors and two nurses injured by Israeli gunfire within the first two hours of the invasion. Israeli forces also besieged Al-Amal hospital near the camp and fired live ammunition from its vicinity while obstructing medics from reaching the injured. At the same time, residents described Israeli troops forcibly taking over civilian homes across the city and turning them into makeshift military positions.

Tuesday’s operation came just two days after the start of the “ceasefire” in Gaza, whose first phase is supposed to last for six weeks. Israeli ministers and media reports have suggested the military operations in Jenin and other areas of the West Bank are part of a deal Netanyahu made with his cabinet ahead of the ceasefire in Gaza.

Trump: ‘I Need the Kind of Generals That Hitler Had’

Well I must have misread the context of your comment because I didn’t need that explained and agree with you.

No I’m saying Dems moved to the right and aren’t representing the people who historically have voted for them because they’re chasing the corporate donors and right wingers

Well on this specific detail we agree entirely!

Not who you replied to, but how so?
