Spirituality was explicitly part of the plot from day one. They never hid that. Your personal materialist views don’t change that fact.

Riker sits like a bisexual.

It depends on how you want to define “database” as to whether or not this already existed. Traditional database like a SQL database… Probably. But… Look into the Utah Data Center.

Tovala. Prevents me from having to go grocery shopping as often, easy to make the food and it reminds me when the food is ready and shuts off the oven.

Part of me wondered if the Akulas are even still in service because of how old they are, but then I remembered the state of the Russian Army in the Ukraine invasion and realized that of course they’re still using subs from the 90s.

Gooigi, actually.

Mario Mario and Luigi Mario.

I would imagine they’re more concerned with Australia than America, since that’s where they live.

The C-suite, board and stakeholders are draining the system dry in for profit prisons? Color me shocked! 😱

I mean… Being good at Googling is a pretty necessary prerequisite to working in IT. It’s like a sizeable portion of the job.

Ehhhh… He’s not wrong. AI is going to be a bigger deal than all of those. ASI has the potential to fix those other issues or be an even bigger problem than any of them. One way or another, the world won’t be the same after it arrives.

Unfortunately it looks like plenty of Europe wants to follow suit. Look at the rise of the AfD.
