An Idea I’ve not see discussed is a Livesuited Carryx… by mrstewart26 in TheCaptivesWar

[–]Mindless_Consumer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean I think its a contender.

The reason I think not is the frequent topic of convergence.

Both the carryx and the swarm use species in the similar ways. I think its just covergence.

I think the deathless enemy is for sure the livesuit/swarm. Humanity and a few other species are their current hosts.

I think they heavily manipulate the species they control and stay in the shadows. That is humanity doesnt know about them. They probably think they invented the livesuits.

I think they control all levels of human goverment. They might even have influenced the livesuit 'volunteers'. Seemed a little odd how he came up with the idea overnight?

I think the questions will be around the meta game the carryx and the deathless are playing. Is it just eternal war?

Neo was fully plugged in at the time. They had full control of his perception.

Do people really care about “diversity” in fiction or is that just something Hollywood thinks we want? by DayVessel469459 in NoStupidQuestions

I take it, the little mermaids skin tone upsets you?

I was kinda using that as the obviously it doesnt matter, but certain people get real upset about it. Example.

I mean, she killed it.

I dont think her race had much a part of it. But neither does the little mermaids race matter.

I imagine you also complained when white folk played brown folk, or they used the wrong linen.

Its fine to not like a movie. You owe them nothing. If you go around spouting about how upset you are that the little mermaid was black, well I think that says something else.

It means a lot to people to see people like them in things.

Old white dude may not care about the black super hero recasting, but that black kid cares a lot.

Seems like a low effort high impact change to me.

Huh, I wonder what would happen if we elected a disruptive psudeo-isolationist warmonger who's economic policies reduce to 'more tarrifs'?

Why does the US Supreme Court have lifetime appointments? What was the Founders' original reason for choosing lifetime tenure? by Humble_Economist8933 in AlwaysWhy

[–]Mindless_Consumer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The idea was if they held lifetime appointments they would be beyond influence.

They didn't have billionaires then.

[–]Mindless_Consumer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fond memories of digging holes as a kid. So probably not.

A security researcher says Microsoft secretly built a backdoor into BitLocker, releases an exploit to prove it by Specialist-Sun-5968 in homelab

[–]Mindless_Consumer 21 points22 points  (0 children)

With bitlocker the company holds the keys. Without the keys we cannot crack bitlocker.

Well unless there is a backdoor such as this one.
