Superman is in the building.

Reg, how long before your superpowers will be executed by AI without need for a human?

They are trying to follow Arthur C. Clarke’s dictum that “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”…But they only have the grandiosity of magic without yet any of the omnific benevolence or competence.

Have a great week! Too sunny to be be indoors today so the post is a bit shorter that normal.

A person has dignity, legal protection, bodily safety, freedom of conscience, and freedom of expression. A belief has no skin to bruise, no liberty to imprison, no mouth to silence, and no claim to immunity from scrutiny.

Enco,

I did not know. Figures though. Screw up a wet dream…

Have a great week!

Fellow Unbelievers:

Yet another distraction from a poorly-executed war, an economy in the crapper, the Epstein Files, and a Hantavirus outbreak that could be worse than COVID-19. The pictures aren’t even as good as past ones:

Any SETI programs on other worlds is surely up for a ton of let-down…[Read more]

Simon,

Different chimpanzee communities across Africa possess unique traditions—such as specific tool usage, grooming techniques, and c…[Read more]

@Enco

”We Homo Sapiens just surround our wars with ideology and religion” is quite a profound statement.

This fits in with the behaviours of some of the far flung tribal groups I’ve lived with. For them, religion is a comfort, not a cause. They still have aggression, but the dividers between ‘them’ and ‘us’ are more commonly tribal root orientat…[Read more]

World of Woo: Facilitated communication.

Funny, influencers try to do that with the non-autistic.

Just because today is Zombie Jesus’ Re-Birthday doesn’t mean you have to emulate him.🧟‍♀️😁

Above all, please don’t emulate all the Leftie “Liberation Theology” concern trolls who like to say how un-Christian Trump is. We get enough Theocratic politics from the Right and Trump is a delusional destructive asshole with or without…[Read more]
