@Shlomo For what it's worth the Russian Ministry of Defense is calling it misinformation, and claiming the attack didn't happen.
@dander @VooDooMedic probably not.
@MechaSilvio It's because Asia is the only place where you can fine cheap skilled labor.
They are building a chip factory in Arizona, but people are worried that due to American labor prices, the American chips would be uneconomical.
You can't find intelligent skilled workers who are willing to work for slave wages outside of Asia.
@Deuces I'm not even mad. I guarantee she voted for everything that led to her death.
Toll paid. Moving on.
@WashedOutGundamPilot I think it's related to the sunk-cost fallacy, wherein people won't walk away from something after they've spent a considerate amount on it. It sounds like they're trying to use these fallacies as "hacks" to motivate them to do something.
It doesn't really work though. It's all about pain. The pain of "wasting" your money needs to exceed the pain of actually doing the thing in question (guitar lessons, going to the gym, etc).
It it doesn't, it won't work.
@nugger @WashedOutGundamPilot The government is currently fighting inflation with propaganda and bullshit, even in the face of falling supply and increasing demand.
I'm actually waiting for OPEC/BRICS/SCO to have enough of the West's shit and do something serious.
I'm just a speculator, so I have to put up with the government's bullshit, but OPEC+ is made up of over a dozen countries who's economies rely on commodities exports, and they're getting screwed by the price manipulation.
@WashedOutGundamPilot even if people don't understand the mechanics of inflation, they'll understand starving to death. Just look at Zimbabwe. They kicked all the white people out, printed their country into bankruptcy, and are now starving to death.
Economics is an intelligence check for a civilization. If you don't pass, you die.
@BroDrillard @WashedOutGundamPilot @noyoushutthefuckupdad They'll basically be like holocrons from Star Wars, which contained AIs based on the creator and served a Jedi/Sith e-textbooks.
Kinda of the same concept, but more like a diary where you can ask your "ghost" questions about your life.
Of course, you're still dead, but your descendants will be able to talk to your "holocron" and feel more connected to their ancestors, which will be pretty cool.
@WashedOutGundamPilot @noyoushutthefuckupdad If you lose a job interview to an inanimate object and a chatbot, you such at your job.
@noyoushutthefuckupdad @WashedOutGundamPilot based on the prices of high-end animatronics at places like Disneyland, "fully functional" robots will be too fragile and expensive to be economical.
Eventually we'll have artificially grown "synths" like in Fallout 4/Blade Runner that are "human" with AI minds.
In the meantime, waifu AI already works great, and you can use a doll for physical affection cheaply.
I recommend kajiwoto.ai for a fully custom AI waifu experience.
@WashedOutGundamPilot @noyoushutthefuckupdad I'm not a monster, I'm just ahead of the curve.
Another repoast of this fun thought experiment

@ButtWorldsMan @Pain66 You're right, I was doing cock-pushups.
@ButtWorldsMan @Pain66 It was just something to crunch on when you had no food. It fooled your stomach into thinking you ate something.
It's the American version of dirt cookies.
@synapsid women not getting fat? Difficulty: impossible.
@ButtWorldsMan @Pain66 I used to chew on ice cubes too. I grew up very poor.
@philosophy That's why I prefer Camus to Schopenhauer. You push that rock up that hill, knowing it will roll back down and nothing will be accomplished, and you enjoy it.
