600 miles? Call me when they make one small enough to fit in a car

heyooooo

IDK but scroll through the list of instances and I’m sure you’ll find a few

To be honest, that’s me too! (And I also might be autistic.) But I’m capable of thinking things out verbally, something I do particularly in regard to programming and architecture problems, or figuring out what to say to someone else. So it’s a tool that’s available to me. I don’t think it’s available to my dog, but I’ll bet he’s doing virtual paws.

But they can make plans, they have goal-oriented behavior that drives them to seek out a goal that exists beyond their senses. If I leave the house through the front door without giving my dog his customary distraction, he goes out the back door and around the side because he knows that, if I haven’t properly secured the fence, he can get out through the fence to reach me. Nothing about that involves his senses, it’s just something he’s figured out.

Now, I doubt any part of that involves an internal monologue because they don’t use language (even though they can, in fact, understand limited language). If they don’t use it themselves, they probably don’t figure things out in their heads that way, it simply wouldn’t be very efficient. But they certainly possess more complex internal cognition than just “I smell food” or whatever.

ARM looking pretty good too these days

Actually makes me wonder whether they’ll try to pressure Trump to quit, for these same reasons.

I mean, he definitely won’t quit, but they might try.

Weird, I can see the thumbnail (too small to really appreciate this description) but when I click through there’s no image. Did my ad blocker remove it?

(edit: no, turning off the ad blocker didn’t help)

There’s a lesson here for lurkers looking at this conversation :-) Block people all you want. You don’t need a good reason. There’s no Socratic Method Fairy who’s gonna get mad at you for refusing to engage with bad faith arguments, lying, or abuse. Just click on the username, the block button is near the top and pretty big.

About to block a few accounts here myself.

They’re banned now, so somebody definitely found one.

What if you just reported them anyway without waiting for independent committee confirmation that someone is a piece of shit?

The ending of Furiosa really enhances the notion that these are folk tales. They describe but also film multiple depictions of the fate of one of the main characters, as if different tellings of the story give a different ending.

My thought is that it becomes a lot less scarce if 99% of the population is dead and the remaining oil only has to cover the needs of 1%. Even less than that, in fact, because you had to be an elite raider type to even have a working vehicle. Most of the remaining population just live in the dirt and get out of the way when cars go by.

Starting to think the reason Elon opposes the “woke mind virus” is not because his daughter is trans, but because he keeps getting owned so fucking hard by her

Honestly, same. That was scary as hell. Then she raised 81 million dollars immediately, started beating him in the polls immediately, started listening to Bernie Sanders, and I’m stoked.

Leaning into the “she’s a cop” thing, which, fine, might as well.

I probably will eventually.

Wouldn’t even take a month, just prepay for those reserved instances.
