  • Who approved AI in operating rooms? AI has not been around long enough for testing to have been completed. Are people just insane?

  • These leader do not have the skillset necessary to rewrite the structure of the US government or the desire to do so to the benefit of most Americans. Any attempt would be a power giveaway to the wealthy, the well connected and the corporate.

  • The only way to stop it from normalizing is by stopping it from happening. People can't negate the normalizing process by sheer will.

  • ...tear down his accomplishments, but to dig in with petty insults like the autopen photograph he put in Biden’s spot in the “Presidential Walk of Fame” installed at the White House.

    Yeah cuz those are the important things to be concerned with.

  • That doesn't sound like my concern. Ads, everywhere, all the time, for everything, does sound like my concern.

  • What the absolute fuck are these people doing!? An OS does not require age verification for anything but totalitarian intents. Fuck this timeline.

  • You're missing the corporate arm of fascism, probably the most important part.

  • Geordi basically got super vision from his choice to integrate technology. He did not simply stay blind. What are you talking about?

    If you could offer an effective, affordable and safe tech solution to people's disabilities, the vast majority would use it. Nobody is out here 'accepting myself' if a fix exists. We know this because we already fix disabilities when able and nobody is choosing no. All of medicine is fixing disabilities or preventing them, from a broken finger to avoiding diabetes.

    The modern process for overcoming trauma is the best we have right now. That it's the same in 1000 years is bad science fiction, especially when medical science in the same world is lightyears more advanced. Why is mental health processes and treatment no better than 2025?

    'Taking a happy pill' is, again, the modern equivalent of technology in mental health treatment. People in 3100 might, I don't know, have advanced since now? The point of science in the fiction is to envision how it might have advanced. If you think mental health treatment is going to be talk therapy or CBT for the next thousand years, that seems pretty unlikely, particularly for severe trauma which has physiological affects on the brain that could potentially be modified.

  • Was the 2020 coup attempt too tough to figure out?

  • Alright, you clearly can't understand anything i said so theres no point.

  • Sure. Being useless is better than being malicious but democrat leader's unwillingness to do anything to stop this shit is complicity. They aren't doing nothing though, they're siphoning people's outrage and energy into a void of complacency. They're a lightning rod for investment that could be going toward doing something about what's happening.

  • Its almost like the conclusions reached don't work.

  • Democrat leadership can never get there while they are beholden to corporate donors. They're still at the table trying to convince you not to leave your home, that they'll go get you what you need from the store yet they never actually leave the house either. They just keep you both at the table talking about what could be at the store.

  • It really isn't.

  • That's a pretty common part of science fiction, particularly cyberpunk, though. What does it mean to be human in a world of advanced technology? Data from TNG was this very question, that character existed to explore what it meant to be human and confront the realities of our relationship to technology. This hologram character could have been similar. If little to no part of the story is the relationship between human beings, technology, and scientific knowledge, it isn't science -fiction.

    I think that's the crux of the hate for this series and discovery, of this Kurtzman era of trek. It's isn't science-fiction at all, it's drama set in a techno-fantasy world. Those are two very different things and neither is Star Trek.

  • Why?

    That's the perfect scenario for science-fiction. It's theoretically possible to do so, trauma has a physiological footprint, it manifests in physical reality that can be altered by technologies. It's entirely plausible for some effects of trauma to be healed medically instead of solely through something like talk therapy, or in this case, theatre therapy.

    *I had deleted my comment prior to your post, as it was intended for the poster one level up in the thread.

  • That's what the law says. But they can just say different and we're in conflict. Even if the courts decide against Trump, there no way to actually enforce that judgement.

  • If they choose to follow Trump, there isn't, no. They have to convince people to refuse Trump's orders if they're illegal or when he has no authority. Re-committing to the system of government and the rules of the distribution of power is necessary. Its hearts and minds right now. Follow Trump or follow the Constitution and its founding doctrines. You can't serve both because Trump and the GOP have abandoned the constitution already. They can't coexist.

  • And the dem majority will accomplish nothing because their donors don't want them to resist fascism enough to be effective.

    Edit: Here is your democrats, beholden to Israel, trying to shutter reigning in Trump's new war with Iran. This is the democratic behavior that is so fucking reviled. Dems get bribed and they sell America down the damn river.
