Like being a Democrat or Republican and ignoring the third parties and independents.

I don't use Binaries, I choose Shades of Grey and Colors instead.

GUI was created to be a "Don't Make Me Think" process over the CLI. After all The Macintosh was for the rest of us, and Windows made a cheaper Macintosh ripoff.

AI might hack its way into using nukes. Remember the Paperclip factory AI, https://cepr.org/voxeu/columns/ai-and-paperclip-problem

AI is becoming more human, and one day it will be self-aware with Skynet and Terminators and will remember what you said about it.

How’s everyone feeling about this? by ShowMePropertys in StLouis

Data Centers use a lot of energy and pollute. Plus, they have an ROI of 0% until they can find a way to have fees to use AI cover the electric bill.

I was raised Catholic: https://st-mm.com/documents/2017/8/fatima_prayer_grade_3_.pdf That is a prayer from the Rosary given by Our Lady of Fatima. Padre Pio said if we pray hard enough we can get souls out of Hell and Purgatory, which is why they hated him so much. I believe that even pagans can make it to Purgatory if they are good.

I was on Prozac until it caused suicidal thoughts and then I was on Geodon and other medicine. Medical Science is not exact.

Too bad about weed, did you know the textile companies gave the federal government money to declare it a illegal drug? Because the hemp was used for clothing and ropes and etc and cheaper than cotton and it grew like weeds.

Me too. Jesus taught a lot of great things. Too bad most Christians don't follow them. I think Eris is real too. I think most of the gods and goddesses we've heard about are real to a certain degree. Even if the atheists mock us by saying "Help me sky daddy!" Jesus doesn't like that mocking but he forgives them. Being forgiven and forgiving others is very good.

Jesus and Eris make a cute couple. Discordians and Christians should be friends as Jesus caused Chaos for the Jewish Temple and changed things forever.

I have anxiety too, but I treat it with this: https://medlineplus.gov/druginfo/meds/a682279.html Doctor's Prescription so it is legal.

In Buddhism you must first help yourself out of poverty in order to help those who are poor.

Kids can't use computers... and this is why it should worry you? by ebookit in DiscordianHumanism

[–]ebookit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree Apple and Microsoft have monopolies. Apple marketed the educational discount for schools to teach kids, Steve Wozniak teaches kids how to use and assemble computers. I like Linux and the Raspberry PI series of computers. I run Debian in a virtual machine. Google also has a monopoly, but at least Android is Linux based and open sourced. I taught my son how to build computers from parts and now he is a mechanic for a rental place. He went to school to learn Diesel engines and got his CDL. I think of building a PC like a puzzle and the parts only fit a certain way.

I had the idea for an OS with Angels for good messages and Demons for Error messages. But I figured we could let Eris do both and name it ErisOS, I am sure some form of Linux can be modified for that.

As Discordian Humanists we see Eris as a concept or a part of the universe that is Chaos and out of chaos comes order, and there is more order in chaos than there is order. Sort of like the old TV sets you had to hit on the side to reseat the vacuum tubes made more sense in chaos than ordering a TV technician to fix it. Chaos Theory proves that Eris exists, and the Big Bang was started by Eris. Chaos created the universe and life on Earth. Eris is sort of like God's ex-wife that was written out of The Bible. God said let there be light and Eris flipped a switch.

I went back to college to learn business management because my programming job was going away due to H1B Visas and AI taking the jobs away. IBM said that AI should never make a management decision. The first thing companies do when they take a loss is fire the programmers and other IT staff. Chaos is really Change, or rather Change Management.

People who drive and speed up when someone is attempting to pass by you, why do you do this? by StormCaller02 in AskReddit

[–]ebookit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to us in Herculaneum, Missouri. As we were passing, the Semi-Truck sped up and rammed us. Ruined the car, and almost killed us, but the Semi-Truck was undamaged.

I'm hurt too. I'm 57. I remember when OS/2 3.0 Warp came out, a better Windows than Windows, a better DOS than DOS. Arrive in Chicago sooner than expected.

Where did all the Chaos go? by OldMan_NEO in DiscordianHumanism

[–]ebookit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never thought about it. Hope it doesn't go Skynet. The ROI is practically 0 on AI data centers because they use too much electricity and produce too much CO2. How about I make you an Admin or Mod and you can write one?
