  • The positive is that lasers are undodgable by any means other than random jinking at distances where the light travel delay is significant which can force your enemy to waste all their fuel or die.

  • Dependso n the area, in remote areas amazon can be WAY cheaper so long as you pass the free shipping threshold even if the items themselves are more expensive.

  • Hell no, that setup describes nazi germany too depending on the ideology. You'd live in permament fear of accidentally breaking some rule you didn't even know about or that the regime came up with yesterday.

  • To be fair on those:

    • Most people can't afford to move so if you live in the desert then you're stuck in the desert even if the living cost would be lower somewhere else post initial moving cost, doubly so if its the only place near your job.
    • No the car lobby and US city design did.
    • No yeh fuck these people
    • Doubly fuck these people.
  • The shadowrun 5e rulebook actually allows someone to live in a small one bedroom appartment on a part time job, we are so far past what used to be considered dystopia.

  • Honestly kind of huge? 3D printing can allow for really complex geometries that just can't be practically produced via other methods which could result in more efficient motors or designs with new and desireable torque curves.

  • The idea is there is no difference, if its a copy they are both validly you. Or to put it another way there is nothing to transfer beyond the data.

  • I'd argue that the Trumps implication that the US can disable many of these weapons remotely is already a perfectly valid free market reason to not buy them, I mean who wants a back door built into your self defence apparatus?

  • The idea is that your conciousness isn't magical or special or something that needs to jump anywhere, I save a game, I turn off my pc for a few million years, move the save file to a different computer, start it up and the game continues.

  • Well if you're just data all someone would need to do is re-create that data within some unknown (but presumably within the range of what gets inflicted by head trauma) error margin. Depending on how the universe works that could inevitably happen someday if it goes on forever (along with shakespear), alternatively some future civilization might run an ancestor simulation or maybe they just have an immense quantity of resources and decide to try and simulate every possible human conciousness.

    All of these are highly unlikely or far future but you don't have to experience the intervening time.

  • From the reviews I saw it didn't help that starfield looked and played like a skyrim sci-fi mod that leaned into the Bethesda loading screen meme on purpose.

  • "We are 20 years away from Fusion if we get X amount of money"– Scientists right before recieving less than 1% of X amount of money.

  • I assume the most basic scenario that we're just complex patterns of self referencing data (electrical activity), your conciousness can cease during anethstetic or some types of coma or rare cases of temporary brain death and start right up again no problem, if someone replicates a close enough copy of you then that's got an equal claim to your continuity as the you that wakes up in the morning, even if you're still alive both of the yous are you, the yous could even be merged again so long as no data is destroyed the new hybrid you would have a completely valid claim to both continuities that emerged following the intitial seperation.

    TLDR: You're no more special than a videogame save file and that's fantastic because it makes it really easy to be immortal or get resurected.

  • Also the Human brain is still on par with some of the worlds best supercomputers, I doubt a Tesla has that much onboard processing power.

  • 46.58, first try (not even joking that's the number)

  • I mean the end goal of AI is to monetize access to information while obsfucating the pre-existing free information so there's no real conflict there?

  • That's kinda scary honestly, but I guess feeling like I have no intrinsic self worth and thus being extremely skeptical about any entity thats nice to me all the time finally has an upside!.

  • HOW though? I periodically check if an LLM can run a passable one on one D&D esque game and they can't even remember who is who or what they said a few paragraphs ago.

  • Nah the horrific part will it at first doing erratic but vaguely in character posts of people you actually liked which will then slowly mutate into shilling for whichever political party or company paid facebook the most.
