Lmao that's not how any of this works

TIL about Roko's Basilisk, a thought experiment considered by some to be an "information hazard" - a concept or idea that can cause you harm by you simply knowing/understanding it ( en.wikipedia.org )

Roko's basilisk is a thought experiment which states that an otherwise benevolent artificial superintelligence (AI) in the future would be incentivized to create a virtual reality simulation to torture anyone who knew of its potential existence but did not directly contribute to its advancement or development, in order to...

Point 1: this thing will definitely exist because we already see parallels to it

Point 2: this thing won't exist because there's no reason for it to

YSK: Using dairy milk after being tear gassed or pepper sprayed doesn't provide more relief and has slightly increased infection risk. Use water or saline instead

Generally medical professionals do not vouch for using milk for tear gas despite it often being touted. The research seems to suggest they are largely the same in providing relief...

My uncle went to job core to become a security guard and they oc sprayed him.

Are istari the creations of the Miar? I kinda thought gandlaf was a Miar, but I might have been getting the two swapped

Scubus ,

Yeah, I would definitely be down with that. The only thing I really want out of a relationship is snuggles because sleeping alone feels so... empty.

Only minor note is that I've been in relationships before where, for reasons beyond my control, I was unable to make an income. It doesn't matter to me whether I'm the "breadwinner", but not being able to financially support my other at all was horrible. I don't know if that's universal for guys but I would imagine mostly yes.

He won't and probably not. The only way he will order a nuclear strike is if Russia is about to be dissolved or if he is about to be overthrown. Unless Russians financial situation gets a LOT worse, there is no risk of Russia dissolving, as Ukraine is not seeking to invade. Putin will not be overthrown unless he dramatically steps up conscription and starts targeting oligarchs families as conscription possibilities. He knows that to do so would be suicide.

In either scenario, once it has reached that point Putin will have pissed off literally every single person that matters and they would have no reason to listen to him.

I don't smoke anymore but when I did id smoke in the morning to wake me up and then smoke at night to put me to bed. I really have no idea how it worked but it did.

Not different strains either, the exact same bag.

Massively convoluted plan to get bodily autonomy

Scubus ,

I mean it's better than working 7.50/h also with no benefits. I might not live long, but I'd have three times the money I otherwise would've.

Scubus ,

Fair enough, but, uh, y'all guys need some immigrants?

What band or music group would you not have minded if they didn't have a certain band member? ( kbin.social )

My pick is Five Finger Death Punch and the obvious answer is Ivan Moody. The guy radiates that alpha-male wannabe energy and it definitely rings through all of the songs he has written and performed with this band. The guy is just a prick and a self-victimizing asshole....

Far from home is above and beyond their best song imo, followed by coming down

I can't think of a single time in the last decade where someone has called my name without me responding "that's not my name tss tss"

I just add a user note to trolls and then anytime I see them I make sure to let people know not to interact with them

It just takes some time

They're referring to the alignment issue, which is an ongoing issue only slightly smaller in scale then warp drive. It's basically impossible to solve. Google "alignment issue machine learning" for more info.

For the record, there have been several advancements in warp drive precursors even just this year.

The Beast 1988? Haven't seen it but that's what Google seems to think.

Fail safe 1964?

How old is the oldest building in the town you live in?

To those from the Western hemisphere, it's always fascinating to hear that some homes and businesses from the times of the Greek philosophers still have inhabitants, and then you remember that the Western hemisphere is itself not without its own examples, for example some Mexican villages still have temples from the times of the...

I believe the first building here was contracted around 1920-40

US paused weapons shipment to Israel amid concern over Rafah, senior US official says ( www.theguardian.com )

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that as Israeli leaders seemed to approach a decision on a Rafah incursion, “we began to carefully review proposed transfers of particular weapons to Israel that might be used in Rafah” beginning in April....

Israel uses US white phosphorus on civilians like day 3 of the genocide: I sleep

Is it really spelled farily? For that typo to be present twice that makes me think I might not know how it was spelled

Scubus ,

Afaik it canonically can. We've had people rebuilt from the buffer, so it literally has done most of those things. The downside to most of those is that you would lose your memories of everything that happened since you were last scanned. Also, it's illegal to rebuild people from buffer. Also, the body is implied to be so complex that you can't just edit one, like curing their cancer. You have to rely on a scam, so you would need a scam of that person without cancer. For simpler things, you can just edit them without needing an original scan, and that's how their food makers things I can't remember the name of work. It's literally the exact same tech as the transporter.

Lmao, so you're not a programmer, are you?

But how does the encryption work if you have the public key? Since your computer knows how to encrypt the data with the public key, couldn't you use that same public key to run that algorithm in reverse? If not, since the public and private keys are not the same, how does the private key go about decrypting that data?

Scubus ,

I don't get it

Scubus ,

Not if they have a blade. Sticking anything sharp inside the bag tears it.

Also, I would much rather suffocate over 10 minutes(which would suck horribly) than live out the rest of my natural life floating alone in the astral plane.

Scubus ,

Bike trailer? Are you joking or is that actually a thing?
