I’ve met border collies capable of doing multiplication and spelling their name. I’ve also met bulldogs who struggled not to drown themselves in their water dish. There’s a massive variation in how smart dogs can be and its certainly higher than an infant.

Entirely depends on the breed and their upbringing.

They could also use geothermal for significantly cheaper and environmentally friendly long term climate control but they don’t want to pay the up front construction costs.

Much of which can be used in hospitals for life saving medical uses! Double dunk on AI failures.

You can probably name every major nuclear accident or incident that’s ever happened. Not because they were all major catastrophes that caused mass loss of life. But because they happen so infrequently and blown out of proportion.

Fukashima was the worst accident in the last 30 years with 0 fatalities. In the US alone over 100 people died due to wind turbines from things like falling ice or structural integrity failure. None of those people worked on turbines and happened to be bystanders to the incident.

Things like fossil fuels have thousands of deaths. But you’re trying to say nuclear is dangerous?

The 20+ year time to build is at best the direct result of lobbying and NIMBY and realistically just propoganda by antinuclear. The US mean for nuclear construction to production is 8 years. Japan has it down to under 5.

Because of all the red tape and overzealous safety regulations slapped on it because of fossil fuel lobbying. The fact that it can be profitable or exist at all today despite having a boot on its neck for the last 60+ years says a lot about its viability.

Same reason we don’t have wind powered cars.

Honestly those people are proven right every time there’s a data breach or service goes down for no discernable reason.

Completely frustrated when millions of people had numerous reasons to vote against him, but simply didn’t.

Technology isn’t there yet and frankly the overlap between people who want to drive supersized pickup trucks and the people who want to drive electric vehicles is so small you’d think the sliver is just the margin of error.

Honestly it’s amusing THAT is what Kirk is known for, Spock did more flirting and wooing of ladies in TOS than Kirk did, and Kirk only did it when it was in service to his current mission.

I don’t think a lot of newer or more casual fans understand that Roddenberry’s opinions on sex were “yes please” and he surrounded himself with like-minded people.

the self proclaimed terrorists are hobbits.

Man two towers would have gone WAAAY different had Merry and Pippin demonstrated their fondness of explosives for the Ents.

Sir please mark graphic and suggestive images nsfw!!

I would pay money to see Picard trying to make Riker cry in the middle of a senior staff meeting.

China would not tolerate Taiwan even talking about nuclear weapons being based on the island. They don’t even like North Korea having nuclear capabilities, such as they are.

Hey if you think I’m an AI, can I interest you in a subscription plan to read barely filtered bullshit for the low low price one 9.95 USD a month?

I just have a background in USAF and had to sanitize a lot of emails to tell an E-7 or O-3 to politely fuck off because their orders and directives clashed with standing orders from an O-7 or above. Always a fun time when the first shirt pulls you into his office unofficially to compliment how well you phrased it but also veil threats about the extra duty I’d be pulling if I indirectly told him to pound sand between the lines again.

As for the whole LLM thing… To be fair reddit was a massive free info source most LLMs used to develop their database to make their bots and communicate like humans and not a command prompt.

Let’s be real, she would dig that body up, put on a strap on and peg the corpse if she thought it’d make her more popular with his fragile white man baby audience.

He already did spew shit everywhere from his bloated ego. He got paid to do it in his podcast.
