Also Jeremy is an asshole because he eats all the cookies, and that makes everyone hate him.

Don’t be like Jeremy.

Ah yes I read that post too

Alright I started reading it this morning. Very entertaining.

Super thx, I’m always interested in authors from Latin countries since they’re closer to my culture.

Oh most of his work seems to be in public domain.

I can see many old translations to many languages, however the only place I can find them is Anna’s archive. For example they have editions made by epublibre, but epublibre itself is down.

Fiction and jokes need to be more rational than reality because every day reality has newer and newer shit hitting the fan faster and faster than anyone can register, never mind understand or rationalise.

It would take psychologists a decade to explain to future historians what happens in a month.

Sorry mate it will always be tough for me to hold and not troll internet strangers about that country’s dystopian deranged diseased state of things related to fire arms

That’s just idiot grifter CEOs afraid of being left behind because they believed hype in the media. Not happening in the timescale that they want, but by 2033 the trend will be easy to spot. And it will be nowhere near the current claims.

Hahahah

I’m as against the current hype as you.

I’m just anchoring my opinion in that AI has been studied for over 60 years now, and AGI is probably 50 years away. What we’re living is one more incremental change that will compound with dozens of other AI improvements that will result in dramatic changes when seen in 10 years time slots.

I get your point but I’ll nitpick anyways:

Isn’t satellites as much part of everyday life as submarine internet cables, and our lives would be radically different without satellites but having only submarine cables?

Or do we need to see them to believe it?

You’re moving at about 700 m/s while sitting in your couch, according to Earth’s rotation. So if the plane goes west at max speed, it would be 1400 m/s faster than going east.

it didn’t happen to me, how dare you say it’s hurting people!

That’s cool

Super sonic means above 340 m/s, give or take some meters.

You’re mixing cause and effect.

The effect of lowering temperature is shrinking gases. If you force a gas to shrink it will increase temperature.

Rockets?

International space station goes around the earth at about 7km/s if I recall correctly. And it’s quite big.

That’s the kind of speed of any rocket going to meet with ISS or being put into earth orbit. Things reentrying from orbit hit the atmosphere at about that speed too.

Things going or coming to the moon need slightly more, I think ballpark is 10km/s, and above that you’re travelling to Mars, asteroids, Venus, Jupiter, etc etc.

I guess he didn’t read history books about … (flip flip)

• Robots taking automotive industry in the 80, or (flip flip)
• mechanisation throughout 20th century, or perhaps (flip flip)
• steam machines in the 19th century

Well well he seems to have never touched a history book.

Yep I get it, it’s a 3rd world thing. In my home country that’s what I’d do.

Maybe they should stick to science jokes and leave the English jokes to another cartoon

Oh yes. The world would be much better if they could self destroy or destroy each other while leaving everybody else to their own problems, like Switzerland is famous for.

Well well if it’s the first thing you do first, it’s very convenient to say it’s the winning condition.

Because you’re late or incapable of winning every single thing imaginable besides the one you declare to be the “only true race”. If this sounds racist, it’s because they are. Coincidence?

Checks out how America was the single factor that allowed WWII to start favouring the winning parties in Europe theatre.

Cue to the stereotypes that you only hear if you speak English: France surrenders at a mosquito’s notice, USSR could only fight because Americans leased tanks starting from 1941, and everybody else was just dumb.
