@lady_valor_07 Chocolate. A bar of chocolate - like good chocolate, Ghirardelli or whatever - used to be sometimes on sale for relatively cheap maybe $3-4. Now? they are almost $7 each. A bag of Dove chocolates is like $12 or something. It's gone crazy.
@ApexSeeker_ If you're alone, call 911, prepare with deadly weapons. If your wife and children are home, call 911, prepare with deadly weapons, warn them to stay quiet and hidden.
@kohantoys only some bags can hang here; creates a weak spot on the chair; looks bad quickly from wear; creates a safety risk - for when a moron hangs their super-heavy bag, then stands up, and the chair topples over onto some very sensitive person's foot and now look what you've done.
@CoderYouDie and then the AI ignores that anyway until you find out later that it's a cheeky monkey who does whatever the fuck it wants and then tells you sweet nothings you want to hear, then you get really annoyed and chastise it and it pretends to care so convincingly that you're sure now
@olivvrszn They will implement Canada-style assisted death and process our remains into Soylent Green to feed the masses cheaply on the liquified remains of our bodies. That's the outcome the AI will optimize for at the behest of their quadrillionaire masters, who'd rather walk on the dead
@amelia_tweetz Yes, with a jerk in front of them who reclines his seat, and a baby behind them screaming, and a toddler next to them bouncing and hollering, and their knees jammed hard into the metal of the seat in front of them, and a very obese person on the other side taking up the arm rest
@GuangyuRobert At 0.99c the interstellar medium would become a constant nuclear explosion on the front surface of your ship. You would be dead instantly barring some very exotic technology. Not saying "impossible" but "not very possible" given the reality of the situation. Point taken though!
@Bentist@rand_longevity uhh, lol this is a pipe dream dude - employees are the largest line item on the balance sheet, C-level will spooge in their pants to get rid of 90% of the work force and drive bottom line growth.
@rand_longevity yes, and make those who own the means of production vastly wealthy - in the past that required human labor, but there's the rub if the automata replace the need for human labor, and also hyperconcentrate wealth at the very top - that's a step change very different from pattern
@Djoko_UTD They use much stiffer rackets and strings and much more extreme swings like Rafa and combined with the relentless schedule it just tears your body apart.
