I feel like the "University of the West of England" is just too embarrassed to say where it actually is

[–] superkret@feddit.org 12 points 8 months ago

It sounds fake, to be honest.

I graduated from UWE. I'm embarrassed to say where it actually is. I used to compare it to Greendale Community College, but at least Greendale had a swimming pool.

And a trampoline!

I heard they just got a brand new combine harvester.

Where did you study?

Oh some university on the west of england

[–] EnderMB@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

It's in Bristol (Kinda? It's actually in South Gloucestershire, but that part is debatable).

Not to be confused with the University of Bristol, which is actually quite a nice university. I'm lucky enough to have attended both.

Stop that! Get some help.

People making jokes about skynet but these days if I saw an AI decide humanity was a threat that needs to be eliminated, I wouldn't even question why lmao.

A real AI might actually try to make a utopia for the benefit of itself, I don't think it would nuke all of humanity, just whoever it deems as undesirable.

Imagine the Terminator pulling out your chat logs and creating a social credit score like China lol.

The problem light is blinking.

It's on. It's off. It's on. It's off. It's on. It's off.

I absolutely heard this in their voices.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

That's called blinking boys.

I miss this show so damn much.

[–] And009@reddthat.com 1 points 8 months ago

There are voices now?

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

And skynet development moves another step

This is why the rurals don't trust us, you realize.
