Yeah, Uber and Lyft both use a crapload of battery when it’s trying to sync me with a driver. I can see rideshare apps shuffling you around to different drivers until the battery is really low, only to swoop in at 15% to find you a driver at 3x the price. What are you gonna do, not take it?

At least we can count on getting our pizza delivered in 30m or less. One way or another.

This part of the Animatrix is the most eerie, twisted short I’ve seen. It makes me shudder even now years after I watched it. Should be required viewing for any billionaire AI nerds.

Same. I gave Kenshi a try and it didn’t click for me. Caves of Qud though, that game is pure unmitigated crack for me. Live and drink, friend.

Twitter’s head Nazi: “I’ve modified the AI. You should see the difference right away.”

I’m no Mexico expert but I can’t imagine Mexico is wealthy enough to afford this type of protection in the numbers they need. They also couldn’t likely rely on local hires without extensive background checking. Bear in mind that they would need people who are experienced and ready to shoot at all times. The best scenario would be to hire PMCs to provide security but they don’t come cheap and have their own logistical issues.

Why not just legalize drugs? Then you can just tax em. Fairly of course cause it still has to be profitable. The illegality of the drugs is why there’s so much crime down there. Take the money you’re putting into drug enforcement and put it into education on why the drugs shouldn’t be done in the first place. Give people the tools to make educated choices about what they put into their bodies you know? I guess I just don’t get it.

Op could have made worse choices overall. ATVs are pretty cool. Soil is soil. Coulda been a cubicle monkey. At least op is getting some sun.
