I used to love Mitch Hedberg references. I still do, but I used to, too.

Comment I saw elsewhere was :

Banished meets city skylines meets total war.

All great games and this supposedly brings them together well

Agreed, but 2 important things in my eyes.

1 - renewable surpluses. As wind and solar keep ramping , hydrogen is a fantastic way to store that energy. Sure, there are efficiency losses but it's transportable, able to be stored long term, and able to be used from small scale to grid scale applications.

2 - total life cycle cost. There is an incredible amount of emissions embodied in evs. Haven't seen a comprehensive analysis of a h2 vehicle but I would imagine a few hundred kilos of missing lithium is a good thing.

Pakistan, not Palestine. The Muslim state that was established roughly around the same time and roughly the same manner.

Honest question, how do you feel about Pakistan?

Not having any issues understanding you, and you keep refusing to acknowledge my points.

Let's say we create a general AI. Let's say it's gone full skynet, and we've given it a billion years in the universe to grow, learn, expand, etc.

It will still end at the heat death of the universe right? It will still have to navigate within the forces of nature right?

Doesn't sound very God like. If the moment general AI dropped, gravity changed, the wave particle duality collapsed, etc, then I'd be a believer. But general AI is merely mirroring our own brains, but with the distinct advantage of having their brain be modular and scalable.

That makes sense if you assume we can make "God" (and such a thing is even feasible).

How in any way is a general AI an omnipresent all powerful force of the universe? A single mild solar flare would wipe it out. A blackhole would end it. Poorly configured DNS would end it. Etc. Unless this is some real weak sauce God in which case just call me God

What the fuck are you on about?

"if we can create God then God already exists" makes zero sense, and I believe most religious folk would say God needs to do more than know what humans are doing. That's santa. God supposedly created the entire universe which feels a little beyond the reach of GPT.

I mean, I haven't actually looked it up, but presumably "news" is information brought to you by a reputable source, so you have some confidence in its accuracy.

The concerning part for me is there's no way tik tok is regulated, or held to any kind of standard. I'm not sure if sources are regularly cited, or confirmed. It feels like gen z / alpha just taking everything at face value, even blatant propaganda, and assuming it as truth because "nobody would just go on the internet and lie"
