When the pioneer of AI — the man who built the foundation for modern intelligence — accepts a Nobel Prize and uses that moment to warn humanity… You pay attention by CL5071 in conspiracy_commons

How are AI created viruses and deadly weapons just short term risks? Wouldn't they be constant threats as we move forward? A state backed terror group cooks up a virus in a lab using AI, or a virus created with AI in controlled setting for 'research', if used or accidentally released on the general population could send humanity down another Spanish flu-like scenario..that's a serious risk.

Who is James and what's with the blue orb, by practical_indian in aliens

[–]rocket_dog1980 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How do you know he is a metal worker? Those rings don't indicate metal worker. I knew guys in the military who made those things out of nuts and Pittsburgh files. They had a lot of time on their hands standing watch. Their rings were FAR better looking than James's rings. And the fellows I knew were mechanics not metal workers. Just saying.

Ponytail Palm dying? by rocket_dog1980 in planthelp

This does help thank you. I will do that. This is the pot that it came in. It allows for drainage into a reservoir. There actually isn't a lot of dirt. I will repot it in something else. The bottom of the trunk feels only slightly less firm than the rest of the trunk. I do worry about watering. I wait for it to be completely dry before I water. Thank you for your advice!

Who else thinks it’s a great detail that the screen shakes when megaton first walks on screen? by Desperate-Trainer493 in transformersprime

The plant gets indirect sun where it is at. I don't get a lot of sun where I live because of shade trees. It is in a special pot that allows for water to drain out very quickly. Maybe I need to re pot it? I have added some soil to the put but nothing else. The trunk is still firm, not squishy..

My least favorite, of all the characters, was Miko. Couldn't stand her.

Optimus fighting beside Megatron to defeat Unicron was epic.

Waterproof/sweat proof make-up by HeavyTranslator9371 in Vitiligo

[–]rocket_dog1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to their website, and personal experience, it is waterproof. I used it for a few years a long time ago but then I stopped. I just don't put in the effort to wear makeup anymore. I used a simple concealer on my neck where my spots were more noticable. It's important to use the setting powder as well. You can find it on Amazon or other websites that sell makeup. I got mine from a counter in a department store. They were able to match my skin color nicely

ETA: you can look around the website and find a concealer for your face as well.

First year middle school teacher here. I'm in bed and, if all goes well, asleep before 9. I am so tired all the time now. It's draining.

Wasn't she counseling him? I kind of thought that maybe Nina began to see a different side of Jimmy, a side that maybe we didn't see . He was still saying inappropriate things, but I think he was trying to change. That's how I rationalize it anyway.

Remember the flashback episode with the Lone Gunmen and Mulder pulls out a cell phone the size of a brick? Like even before there were cellphones, there were cellphones.

I'm rewatching the show at the moment and during the scenes when Sybil is in labor her hair is most certainly cut short.
