Our governing system is increasingly illegitimate.

I recall he ordered it from the replicator center. I imagine they had large replicators for furnature, then beamed it to his quarters.

I would assume they were placed on a bedside table pointed in the general direction of the fucking.

But still.

It means I think everyone else is an asshole.

I might be too, but I don't think I am.

Depends. If the chief murdered the guy, then that's the restaurant's responsibility for not keeping the chef secured.

At least I understand the words in the explanation.

But who the duck dislike being called a good boy?

Sir, how dare you say something so accurate.

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 3 points 3 weeks ago

Of course I did.

Right, but that's not to protect them from AI. It's to protect them from us, once we come to our senses.

Because the people with money know they don't have to listen to the little people.

We don't even need overblown fears about AI killing everyone. AI is ruining students, ruining artists, causing massive layoffs, being used to monitor and judge our behavior, and is attempting to influence our behavior. It seems there are attempts to give these glorified auto-complete programs increasing amounts of resources and authority.

This is bad for most people. And those of us born after 1980 or so have no illusions that anyone in power is going to care about the welfare of the little people. They only recognize money and power. We don't have money, but there are many kinds of power. I hope someone recognizes the signs, and changes course before it gets bloody.

Seems an odd thing to do. I rather liked it.

Ah, the Wicked Bible, first brought to my attention while reading Good Omens.

Can't argue with the word of god.
