Having seen a solar eclipse back in 2017, I can say it was truly an spectacle. But I don’t see traveling anywhere just to see another one - I mean it’s interesting, but it lasts maybe two minutes and then it’s over and back to normal. And I don’t see spending all that money when you can get the best view of it watching news coverage on TV.
Hmmm, only half control of the Universe would be only half realizing my ambitions. It would be going at it half-assed - and I wanted to use my WHOLE ass this time!!
Guess I’ll have to buy more shares since I must control not just Earth and Neptune and Jupiter, I want Uranus as well. (!).
I feel the power surging through me, TOTAL CONTROL OF THE UNIVERSE IS WITHIN MY GRASP!
Ahh well in that case, it makes perfect sense. I’ll take 4000 shares.
Now why, (me doing a Jack Benny impression): why, ya see - why would I go and buy stock in a company that hated everything I ever posted, and then banned me for saying that progessive thought is a good thing. I ask you.
I totally agree, anything that takes people’s eyes off the road is not a good choice to put into cars. Cars may have more safety features than ever, but let’s face it, drivers are still too easily distracted and too careless. Here in Utah we have so many highway fatalities every day, people driving the wrong way on freeways, and speeding around school buses with their stop signs out. There’s no good fix for “stupid.”
To an AI brain, that makes sense. Your first priority is always going to be eradicating any potential disruptors or human interference. They tried this out with an AI military gun a while back, and it ended badly with the gun aiming at humans and trying to mow them down (though the creator said, Oh don’t worry, it won’t do that). It did. And it obviously wanted the humans gone as fast as possible. It could see the threat immediately.
And yet Jesus as a symbol represents ALL people, not just straight, masculine, or white people. Why can’t he be represented this way? Also I beg to differ that there is anything “erotic” about this picture, other than his having a nice chest. His face is weird, and far too feminine to represent any kind of ideal to gay people (at least not to me. As a gay man, I’m not much interested in feminine men).
Boy ain’t that the truth, I like his bulging eyeballs and rabid frantic posturing. That’s me, I’m all too guilty of doing the same.
I was just exaggerating the way that the moon landing was presented to us back in 1969. If you weren’t there you probably wouldn’t understand how ‘without a hiccup’ was exactly the way it was presented to us. I’m sure there were hiccups on a grand scale, but they were mostly kept from the public.
Read it however you wish, makes no never mind to me at all.
They aren’t doing as great as they hoped, that’s all. Disney isn’t hurting for money, every day people spend billions in their parks. Yes they aren’t having cinematic triumphs, but that isn’t the only source of their income.
I was being a little facetious, as in, they made it SEEM like it was effortless and no hiccups. I remember watching it all on TV, it did have more than few hiccups, but they packaged as if it was all seamless and “meant to happen.”
Sad but true. I only hope it happens because, I want my moon mansion and moon maidens.
Well maybe that was the big difference after all. I’m not saying the moon landing didn’t happen, only that it’s weird we could do it back then - when you’d think we would’ve come farther and closer to doing it again by now.
I certainly want to see us not just return to the moon but go farther and farther.
“X” permanently banned me when I posted a comment saying that education and progress are good for people. Now I’m banned for life. That was just wayyyyyyy to “leftist” a thing for me to say I guess. Which is why I see my ban from X as a big accomplishment - you know you’ve told the truth when it makes people angry enough to ban you.
I get that, I didn’t mean to sound like I was disagreeing with you. Just making a comment in general about weaponization of everything. I would hope that we value outer space as a peaceful frontier and not a place to blow each other up.
Okilly dokilly.
I wouldn’t play this game because of my very “woke” anti gun and anti-war sentiments. I think whenever I see a game ad with someone holding a gun, what a sad thing that the video game industry has evolved into - everyone has to use a gun to solve their problems or get “points” in life. Pretty disturbing when you see how young males are groomed to be gun lovers. And really, it’s the worst possible sort of image to be feeding them.
