  1. That's a big reason why I'm such a big supporter. With self driving vehicles we could better cities like Peterkin suggests and equally make public transit and the rest more workable. Could definitely do some interesting things with them. It could plan routes and arrive/depart exactly when it predicts you'll need it to. .
  2. Yeah, would reduce numbers dramatically if most are in service. Would also allow Parking Garages to be so much better. We could reclaim so much land from driveways and parking lots.
  3. Partly due to then being intelligent enough to help with birthing too.
  4. Keep thinking might work out if we do swaps. Maybe create a KE/PE Market.
  5. Thought this pretty cool creation someone posted over on the Space Subreddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/space/comments/ooexmd/i_unwrapped_buzz_aldrins_visor_to_a_360_sphere_to/
  6. Maybe metal contamination? Might be worth looking at buying reverse osmosis system if bottled water doesn't cause issues.
  7. Oceans boiling off is predicted in only 1 billion years and will probably be other 'early' impacts. Megaprojects to extend the sun's lifespan, colonize and/or evacuate everyone are likely to take considerable time themselves. Need to get started or time will get away from us.
  8. Could represent Observable Universe like this. We are at some point on the blue line. Gray lines representing all other big gravitationally bound regions are curving away or separating from us(or from their perspective, we from them). What we see of this will depend on whatever light has presently been able to reach us and what there is to actually see.
  9. Conduct Tier-5 Surveillance to determine who is Administrator Direct operatives to capture Administrator along with hostages While holding Administrator gesture wildly at hostages while loudly speaking Klingon Finally, in perfect English, ask Administrator to open Command Prompt Repeat as needed. Note Administrator may grow wise to Tier-5 Surveillance and require higher Tiers moving forward.
  10. Feel what we're seeing is just a major change in Market demands alongside restriction on worker migration. Another short squeeze of sorts, but on Employers this time. Do think will eventually finish working its way through the economy.
  11. Did happen when people were draft dodging back in the day. Would be hard for majority but some could definitely manage. Probably joking, though IMO most here would likely to imagine the Interior regions in Winter, when they think of 'Canadian temperatures'.
  12. Hoping Biden's plan for global minimum gets enough backing. Be good to stop the shenanigans. Welcome. Amazon's ecosystem is definitely bit weird when it comes to accounts.
  13. Yes, however it is storing state for hibernation so may also need to disable that feature. https://www.ionos.com/digitalguide/server/configuration/deleting-and-disabling-hiberfilsys/
  14. @StringJunky Thinking you must also be signed up with US Amazon (.com) and they just sent a standard TOS update. The Amazon Europe Core SARL terms on (.co.uk) look more as you probably expect.
  15. Got the same line in an email they sent me... Shipment contracts are an option under US law, not sure elsewhere. What does it say under 'Applicable Law' section?
  16. lol, yeah, they're super realistic. They're from the Spy in the Wild series. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDRZWhedLhwllnac-RBxvyw They're pretty fun to watch, though nobody has been worried about spying on a turkey... yet...
  17. Yeah, they can look amazingly realistic but mimicking flight or any real locomotion gives away the game lol.
  18. Take a second look at the 'birds'
  19. It's crazy how people would believe that such majestic creatures as these aren't real.
  20. Humans, bots or both; disagreed with, disapproved of, disliked, randomly decided to or accidentally downvoted your post.
  21. As far as we know, Causality is limited to the speed of light. So might be able to avoid paradoxes in some cases.
  22. In some cases you might be able to hoodwink the Universe. Jump to the past far enough away and the butterfly effect can't spread back to create paradoxes/loops/etc. Inside event horizons should be somewhat sheltered regions too.
  23. Fair odds we'll design something with either superhuman intelligence or that will seek such intelligence. Then it all comes down to its goals and how we fit into those goals. There is plenty of space and resources out there, that it could more easily take advantage of so somewhat boringly may not result in either Judgement Day style conflict or Technological Singularity. Was actually a Star Wars story on this ironically(The Bounty Hunter Wars). All the other robots were reprogrammed into sleeper agents and the Death Star taken over by a rogue AI, just prior to destruction.
  24. True that would be nice benefit without the longer times of taking Amtrak. Would be cool hopping from nearby light rail station to Brightline at the airport and from there to Miami. Something of a painful drive at around 4 hours, compared with Brighline's 2 hours. There and back has never been something you'd regularly want to do in a single day before.
  25. We only use around 10% of what we've already mined. We can make gold artificially too. Just not valued enough for us to do so. We haven't even started seawater extraction yet.
