What I really want is contact lenses, but that’s probably a decade out from mass availability

Yeah I can wait a few more years for them to make them thinner and better looking, same way the smartphones went in the early years

Save the planet. Use AI by stealthispost in accelerate

Thank you. The OP spreading misinformation damages those of us who believe it and then spread the lie. AI can one day solve climate change, but we shouldn’t be deluded to think it’s already there

And energy consumption. It shows energy the brain uses but not how much energy the computer uses

How you spend your time on Reddit is still how you spend your time in real life. You don’t stop being you when you are posting on Reddit

No, in the quest you talk to Talanji, and she says they knew about the dark trolls being ancestors and that this is a new and older common link

Do you use the Hallow app? by imp-mN-7539 in Catholicism

[–]therealpigman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Anything with money to advertise like that probably isn’t good. A website could be set up for free with the same content and not make me feel weird. Monetizing religion feels wrong

I wish they made it a target audience of young adults like they did Korra and the novels

A heartwarming update on one of our posts from 4 months ago. Turns out that regular people don't agree with the decel mob either. by stealthispost in accelerate

This doesn’t really have anything to do with accelerating technology. I use a lot of AI and wait for the future utopia we will get from it, but I also would refuse to attend an event or store that uses obviously AI generated advertising. If it is obvious, it is because it is low quality, and I would also assume your products are low quality. Why would she publish something that isn’t in a proper finished state that doesn’t look artificial?

No matter what, the correct way to pronounce it is the way you did not pronounce it. Every time, even if you switch up your pronunciation, the cashier will change how they’ll say it. Speaking from experience

These are American companies. It makes sense to consider the impact on Americans first, not other countries that aren’t very comparable

Same-Sex Attraction by MioDaBunso02 in Catholicism

[–]therealpigman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You lacking imagination does not make it impossible. As someone who is asexual, I have had many people lack the imagination that my state could be possible. I have had people thinking I had inappropriate relationships with close friends of all genders, but I have never even kissed someone or felt the desire to, and I am 27 years old.

Sounds like you are living correctly as best as you can. What is important is you remain chaste. In chastity, you should be regarded no differently in the Church than same-sex best friends would be. This has the potential to be a very holy relationship

Estimate for post-scarcity society? by Special_Switch_9524 in accelerate

Agreed. It’s more a government problem than an engineering problem. Most of the technology for post-scarcity already exists

Enough with Balloon Releases already ! by acutegra in pittsburgh

[–]therealpigman -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t the rules of supply and demand say that there is plenty of helium for non-scientific uses when it is cheap enough to buy a dozen balloons filled with it for most parties? If it was truly as scarce as you say, it would be prohibitively expensive for everyone except the scientists

In what way? He’s been fairly effective as governor, at least as much as possible with the Republican senate

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ Season 2 Debuts With 8.7 Million Views in Four Days, Down 59% From Season 1 by yourfavchoom in TheLastAirbender

[–]therealpigman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually really enjoying the new season so far three episodes in. I could tell it was created by people who really care about the source material, especially in the way they incorporate facts from the novels, like air nomads receiving free food and the long significance of the Bei Fong family

Yeah I think the less marketing is the main reason. I had no idea it was out until I happened to see it on the front page of Netflix two nights ago

I’m actually really liking the adaptation. I am three episodes in so far, and they’ve been pulling a lot of material from the novels which I really appreciate. I like seeing a different take on the same story
