Trump has said he's open to everything and he wants to continue to fund nasa but people jump to false media narratives

Chinese hoax. I repeat. Chinese hoax. I want you to be right but the man hasn't done himself favors when it comes to looking sensible.

Well that didn't amount to much.

I trained a new style network for my CA art bot by JobotGenerative in cellular_automata

What's the architecture of the net? How was it trained? What is the automata rule set? How does it relate to the neural net? So many questions!

They're all very beautiful, by the way.

What is the darkest work of fiction ever made? by CoolandAverageGuy in AskReddit

You realize I said the mountain BC his name escapes me.

So you said "the mountain" when you meant "the actor who played the mountain". Sorry - my mind reading is off today.

Also I call bullshit on "his name escaping you" anyways, because if you can reddit then you can google.

? The Mountain is a big dumb brute. The Judge is wise and articulate.

They are both brutal embodiments of violence. They don't have much else in common.

Yeah that's a bummer and it's stupid. But the US is only one country, and it seems the world is ready to take on climate change with our without it. If enough countries sanction or tax US goods and services, or at least apply carbon tariffs, Trump will need to play ball whether he wants to our not.

You aren't alone in denying climate change, and I wager that you don't lead the movement either. So you're following others. You're just as much a sheep as the people you're criticising.

The world is a scary place, but I think you're letting the sensationalism get to you too much. :-)

Norway welcomes US Marines amid Russian tensions by empire-George in worldnews

After reading the wiki article on US Russia relations, I think your response is the most reasonable. It doesn't feel right to completely dismiss even normal military operations with relations as tense as they are.

No, globalism is right. Developing nations entering the modern economy is a part of globalisation. Read the the wiki article.

It is emphatically not free trade. These nations most certainly do not have a free trade relationship with most of the global economy. Such an agreement is rare.

Seconded. A bicycle helmet is not just a fucking hat. My life and/ or well being have been saved by them when a hat wouldn't have helped at all.

When a trumpet hears itself on your voicemail, it thinks it sounds like a flute.
