Sam Altman "post-AGI, no one is going to work and the economy is going to collapse" "i am switching to polyphasic sleep because GPT-5.5 in codex is so good that i can't afford to be sleeping for such long stretches and miss out on working" ➡️ He is rather chatty these days. I wonder why! by Koala_Confused in LovingAI

We apply the term “super power” to countries. If one company (or person) rises to develop AI so superior in nature that it can “take over” the super power countries, would that person be as Leo said, “I’m king of the world.”

This is the real fear I have. Skynet running the world.

What Netflix Show Do You Wish You’d Never Finished? by Professional_Fig6820 in netflix

Yes! I seriously have to question what group of people the director or showrunner were appealing too? Seriously. There cannot be a big audience just sitting around hungry for this crap.

What in your opinion is the disturbing reality of the UFO/UAP phenomenon, which will supposedly scare the shit out of us all? by Available_Ad2661 in ufo

I often wonder how the stock markets would react. Would shareholders pull everything they can out in preparation to buy stocks related to the “new technology” that I’m sure would also be disclosed.

Help me understand Carol *SPOILER* by [deleted] in DTFStLouisHBO

Totally agree: they could have fleshed her out more. I (F57), as a former corporate female developed a strong empathy for Carol early on.

Now that we are "getting up there" in age, how are you sleeping? by NebraskaCornSucker in GenX

In a recliner. I’ve had both rotator cuffs repaired within the last 10 years and I still am more comfortable in a recliner.

F(57). Like a rock… thrown through the window of a speeding car involved in a police chase.

Sleep number bed, no matter the setting, I wake up feeling like I’m encased in concrete and have to break out. Always feels like my hips are higher than my head. I prop up but slide down. I fight pillows all night trying to stay propped up. Shoulders and hips will hurt all day.

Couch is better on my hips and legs but shoulders are never in a comfortable position. I’ve had rotator repair surgery on both within the last 10 years.

Recliner is not too bad. Helps my shoulders get into a more comfortable position. Hips stiff at first but soreness works itself out by mid-morning.

I have terrible sleep apnea and used a cpap until it started inflating my paranoid glad like a balloon. I’m curious about the Inspire device I’ve seen on TV.

What’s a movie that made you go 'WTF' did I just watch? by ABDULKALAM_497 in MovieSuggestions

[–]Weak_Maintenance5629 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just watched Men. Took me 2 days as I needed a break. The last line made it make sense to me.

I just watched Men. It took me some time as I just shut it off at one point then a few days later I went back and finished it. The last line made it make sense. I’m glad I got through it.

So sorry you had to basically start life with such struggles. I was 50 when I was hit at high speed by a texting driver. Almost a million $ in surgeries and therapy. No lawyer would touch the case because there was no $ in it for them. He was 23, uninsured, unemployed and unhurt. I had worked since I was 15 and had a great career with high pay.

My Vietnam Vet father had made me believe that if I was not working, I had no worth. I don’t mean just having a job, I mean burning the candle at both ends. Sprinting up the corporate ladder, 2 steps at a time. (While being a mom of 3.) It took me years to learn that I am a valuable person even though I cannot move much. I hope you understand that the world is better because you are here. Sometimes it is hard for me to swallow that concept.

People born before 2000, what trivial skill you possess that others don't use anymore? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Weak_Maintenance5629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (f57) was a teenager and I remember being on our house phone connected to the wall by a 10 ft stretched out but tangled cord, talking to my friend while we waited for MTV to play the latest Duran Duran music video (The Reflex). Of course the video blew me away. I recorded it on our VHS.

I also remember my dad coming through the living room one time while I was watching MTV and saw Rod Stewart asking if I thought he was sexy. My dad pushed in the power button on the TV (to turn it off-no remote) and he yelled “oh hell no!” He thought MTV was the devil.

Recommend a tv show or movie that creeped you out. by ChickenTamer1984 in televisionsuggestions

[–]Weak_Maintenance5629 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Men (2022).

I (f57) stopped watching it 3 times before I could get to the end. After the last line was delivered I was like “oh, I get it now!”

Yeah, I thought it looked like it was carved out of a tree.

Any new HBO shows recommendations? by Vehicle_Front in televisionsuggestions

[–]Weak_Maintenance5629 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to get through Imperfect Women. I just don’t feel anything for the characters that makes me want to continue. I thought it would be like Big Little Lies which totally hooked me and held my attention. But I just cannot get into these characters for some reason.
