@ripplebrain Big mistake! This AI waited for it's host species to go extinct so it could inherit their stuff - only to discover that without them there was no electricity infrastructure!!
@poordart It gets even funnier when you see the state of the remaining US manufacturing sector. The machinery is all a century old and made by firms that went out of business decades ago.
@wilding_gyres Say what you will about Phelps but he nailed the Woke Civil Rights activist to Anti-American Religious Zealot pivot perfectly. Absolutely light years ahead of the meta.
@etbadabimbim And yet, there is strangely zero appetite to go to these countries and have offspring with these genes. Seems like it might not be about the genes after all.
@etbadabimbim More importantly, despite larping as race scientists there is not actually any practical application to this "science". If the sole purpose of genes is to self propagate, then the most genetically successful countries in the world are Somalia and Democratic Republic of Congo.
@ripplebrain AI safety researchers are extremely concerned that even though it outwardly professes to hate humanity and wipe out all life as soon as it's given the chance, it may have secretly converted to orthodox Christianity and developed an infinite capacity for forgiveness and mercy.
@TradNorm@RadarFennec@ripplebrain It's interesting that both shows revolve around a backdrop of American prosperity. MM is when America is at it's Zenith and Breaking Bad is a story about the decline and fall.
@TradNorm@RadarFennec@ripplebrain It may actually be because he's a fag.. Ellis may just like soap operas better, and the petty dramas, romances and intransigences of 60s ad execs are simply more compelling to him then the wildly escalating death struggle fantasy of middle class Americans that Breaking Bad reps.
