Re: World War III speculation
And when will we learn nothing Russians say is to be taken seriously? In all my days on this forum never have I written off an entire ethnicity like this. Blatant racism like this being accepted in liberal circles really sucks. Perhaps the words you mean are “nothing the Russian oligarchy says is t...

Re: Aging & Longevity News and Discussions
Something I’ve thought about is that simply removing senescent cells won’t be enough. It will probably double or even triple our lifespans but eventually all the cells in our bodies will become dysfunctional and removal won’t work anymore. We have to actually rejuvenate cell division proper too. Doe...

Re: CES 2024
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22wlLy7hKP4 I don't really understand the appeal of a device like this. Personally I'm not using a lot of these apps demonstrated to begin with, and when I do do something more complex like planning a trip I want to see details like a satellite view of the hotel to ch...

Re: Society & Demographics News and Discussions
Very likely, given that AI ends up analyzing people better than people. I hope but none of these apps that exist today are incentivized to matchmake properly. They deliberately feed users people that aren’t good matches for months and months on end deliberately to drag out their subscription models...

Re: Pension running out in a country.
The Teamster's central state pension fund was going to run out in 2025 and the federal agency responsible for backstopping pensions like it also was going to run out of funds by then. The federal government did bail out the fund though through 2051 I think? There's a great incentive for the federal ...

Re: Your 2024 Predictions thread
Also another "quick" post, I will write a larger thing eventually, perhaps while I'm on my coming trip to the far north in a few days. I'd give more details, but honestly I don't want to reveal too much personal information online these days. I'm one of those rare few who isn't photographe...

Re: Israel's conflict with its neighbours
I'm having the horrible realization that if Israel is existentially threatened given it's controlled by a fascist government it will likely launch nuclear weapons. I hate to be rooting for any outcome in a war besides peace, but at bear minimum if Israel invades Lebanon I hope that Hezbollah knows a...

Re: Your 2024 Predictions thread
Just want to say on the AI lawsuit prediction. Copyright law is one of the few things (ironically) that might actually be able to break corporate strangle over the courts. Copyright law is backed by so many vested interests and monopolies in its own right that if they feel threatened are possibly ca...
