Wow. It's almost like the call is coming from inside the house...

You mean an atmospheric diving suit. The most recently developed one by the US Navy cost a mere $113 million.

Lol. Inefficient human reproduction will be eliminated. Sperm will be harvested directly from a man's testicles and eggs from a woman's ovaries. There will be no more sexual conduct allowed in order to facilitate ending all STIs.

As someone who was born in 1969, it sometimes feels like people think I grew up in a cave banging rocks together for entertainment. I think it might be that there has truly been a dramatic shift in how people learn about things. It's like now that everyone can pull up a bazillion people recording events and watch them unfold it is harder for them to connect to the previous generations, where we all had vaguely similar experiences of information transmission. It isn't hard for me to believe that sending a letter in the 18th century could take weeks or even months for it to arrive and a response get back to a person. I grew up seeing disclaimers that a response to a letter or order could take 6-8 weeks from a company in the US. Nowadays we get ordering stuff from overseas could take that long, but something from within the states? It's unconscionable that it would take 2 weeks.

Did you check out Lutris for mod managers? I know Vortex is on there and is supposed to work with all steam games.

A little detective work got me to this Linux specific mod manager that targets BG3 and CP2077 - https://github.com/CHollingworth/Lampray

This is where AI is going to go - professionals are going to be tapped into it to do their jobs. AI is much, much better at spotting things than we are. Let an AI tap into a detective's vision and it'll spot clues he'd otherwise glance over and ignore. It will also allow for much better oversight. It can be trained to spot suspicious behaviors in employees. Not to harp on a singular profession, but cops could be held, in real time, to a higher standard.

Or my ex-wife.

Everywhere. This is not unique to any social media platform.

Just a conspiracy of cartographers, then?

It made sense. There were also university CS departments doing the same thing. The Cell processor in the PS3 was pretty damn powerful for the price at the time.

Exactly. Superman may be the most powerful being on Earth, but hit him with kryptonite or magic and he folds like a deck of cards. A molotov cocktail will bring the Martian Manhunter to his knees. The Green Lantern is boned against anything yellow.

Are \ exploiting ? The answer is always, 100% of the time yes. If you're not ultra rich or a corporation, than someone is exploiting you. Doesn't matter whether you're from the poorest nation in the world or the richest, if you're not in that exclusive club, you're being ground down for your constituent parts by it.
