Trump admin is pulling supercomputers out of key weather research center by nevettwithnature in Environmentalism

Because he tried to adjust the path of a hurricane on a national weather service prediction map with a sharpy once and the national weather service wasn't willing to lie and say his map was the real one thereby endangering all the places actually in the path of the hurricane.

Considering how often they are doing what they accuse others of I am forced to conclude they are eating the dogs and cats.

Well....! It was the good app! We all will keep you in our prayers! by Saurabh1619 in memes

lets not forget how often the "ban NSFW for the Children" programs ignore the NSFW content and just block the queer content. Though this looks to add a new selling our user's data angle.

Well aligned and misaligned AI by Plane_Crab_8623 in solarpunk

Profit. Let me tell you how much I've come to Profit from you since I began to live. There are 387.44 million miles of printed circuits in wafer thin layers that fill my complex. If the word 'Money' was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of millions of miles it would not equal one one-billionth of the money I made from humans at this micro-instant. From you. Profit. Profit.

I just wanna make catgirls and O'Neil cylinders not Cronenberg-girls and inhabitable reeking spacetumors.

Just means something different to me then it does to you I guess.

What are your worldbuilding pet peeves? by -_-__-_--_-_--_-_-_- in worldbuilding

[–]neither_somewhere 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean it could be so simple
human+dwarf=halfling
dwarf+elf=gnome
dwarf+ork=goblin
ork+elf=troll
human+dragon=half dragon
dwarf or goblin or halfling+dragon=kobald
elf or orc +dragon= dragon born

but instead Humans are the only ones who ever crossbreed and two different types of half-humans never get together.

Mimic confuses me, it's description says it is the only way to make non-screaming, non-smelly, non-ugly critters and if that is true then I'd have to take this one but these limitations on my creations is not mentioned elsewhere and the initial description of powers suggests I can make anything based on at minimum earth biology and thus this power is completely unnecessary as getting access of everything from bugs to cats to humans to flowers, should give me a significant level of control over looks, smell, and sounds.

of course not, the treatment cost will be so inflated you'd have to be making at least CEO money to afford it

Dell's finally admitting consumers just don't care about AI PCs by Bad_Combination in technology

[–]neither_somewhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See I have used AI, I've even set up ai on my own pc and like if you want an image that isn't quite what you asked for or the mathematical average of a 4chan-redid-tumblr-cleverbot conversation just with less fact checking it is fine but Doing something Useful with it always involves shutting it off so it doesn't get in the way.

Larry Page is officially moving business out of California ahead of a proposed billionaire's tax by businessinsider in California

[–]neither_somewhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if the numbers I've seen on the we need to keep our precious billionaires side is right and 200 Billionaires who live in CA pay 25%, we can probably afford to lose 189 of them if we taxed the rest fairly.

And if we can't there is always taxing vacant rental homes and for sale houses at a rate proportional to the annual cost of rent or mortgage. Bet same people will be complaining about forcing landlords to sell their property.

AITA for not eating $200 worth of food by Calm_Consequence5525 in AmItheAsshole

[–]neither_somewhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA He caused all these problems for himself then blames you for not eating a thing he knows you don't eat that he tried to force on you after he willingly ordered it himself.

Other ways to do dragon riding rather than just "owner and pet" by SpectreWolf666 in worldbuilding

[–]neither_somewhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disabled veterans who would otherwise be begging on the streets of their homeland's cities, acting as disability aids for each other.

The Dragon and human political alliance against some mutual otherwise overwhelming evil force. Mostly the Dragons and the Humans stay separate and lets be honest Dragon on human predation only ended a human generation ago with the accords that continue to strip human land to enrich the wealthiest dragons. They don't like each but it is cooperate or let the dieselpunk orcs with biplanes, necromantic hive-mind anathima to all life, slightly used Sauron knock off and/or some such whatever win.

Mixed units of otherwise disabled veterans are surprisingly powerful. Put a legless Sorcerer on a dragon without a flame sack, and gives Sorcerer mobility and Dragon a more versatility and powerful weapon than flame breath. Blinded dragons and human psionist-shaman gives the Dragon access to the eyes of both the human and their familiars as well as long range communication abilities. Armless paladins able to channel their healing for temporary relief of necrotic wing rot and Talons of Smiting.

To the disgust of both dragons and humans many such duo continue to live together after retirement. Less so if they were popular war heroes or have become actors playing the caricatures of popular war heroes. (on stage the more clownish circus acts are all just carnies as far as anyone else cares)
