but I think (hope?) it’s a net positive.

Definitely a net positive. My friend and I were discussing something similar the other day. He rides motos and I ride downhill and we both learned via youtube. What used to be restricted to people who could afford private lessons or coaching are now available to people even in third world countries. It’s opened up a lot of new horizons for people.

Star Trek First Contact

Wait until you hear about bicycles.

Also Demeter. 3 sons and 3 daughters.

I love that Dionysus in the new Percy Jackson is played by Jason Mantzoukas. Dude screams Dionysus energy.

Sounds like someones forever DM wants to play a PC.

Demeter. Goddess of agriculture, harvests, and the earth. She seems really chill and a hippy.

Egypts internet infrastructure of 2011 does not equal US internet infrastructure of 2025. The US is too well connected to feasibly turn off the internet. With egypt in 2011 they only had to shut down five ISPs and that shut off the internet in their country.

The name of the AI is gospel? How can this possibly go wrong?

Not a science experiment person but i like Dr Becky and PBS space time for space youtubers. They go really in depth and i love it.

Also Nileblue and his other channel Nilered are great for chenistry experiments.

What happens in the scenario where a super-intelligence just uses social engineering and a human is his arms and legs?

There are several effects this could have on Earth and the atmosphere. The presence of these particles could affect how water freezes into ice in the stratosphere, and influence the size of stratospheric aerosol particles. They could also induce salt deposition on aerosol particles, and alter the stratospheric refraction of light.

These may seem like subtle changes, but they could have unintended consequences that we really ought to investigate, the researchers say.

Also vaporizing metals being added to the upper atmosphere isn’t exactly great.

The last one should be spelled beau if you mean your special guy.

8 inch legs? Eesh.

I would start by building a shelter and finding a moving water source. Next I would build a fire. Finally I would set up some snares or deadfalls to catch some food.

Now I’m king of the forest like Tom bombadil

Oh windows 2000 how I miss thee.

Sounds like Poland is going to have to nationalize a train manufacturer.

If you can’t find something on piracy trackers you just need better trackers.
