If England is going to have a queen, then she should live up to her name and be the only female in the country that is able to reproduce.

The most annoying accents in english are the ones that add Rs where there are no Rs. “The British Empire brought liberty to places like Australiur and Americur, although rather to the detriment of the locals.” No shut up, speak english

Card Against Humanity is dumb, because it's just Apples to Apples except you don't have to be clever since the cards are already dirty.

The card that says “gigahitler” or something like that is always funny though There are just some classics that keep being funny because they are so dumb. Turn on your monitor for example.

That poo poo is funny because it's so depersonalized, like there's this random collective consciousness that manifested just to focus on you and what a dumbass you're being (royal "you"), and even when you know the person making it it's still part of that ocean of subconscious. It doesn't quite work the same with actual people.

It’s basically just a dumb zinger for whenever someone says a silly thing, or even just a mundane thing, that kinda sorta matches up with “turn on your monitor” in a funny way “I keep getting alt right shitheads ranting at me in youtube ads” “Turn on your monitor”

I love MBMBAM, but I think their advice to all their write in's should be "go to therapy". Every other question asker has such high anxiety that they will, like, hide in a dumpster rather than make eye contact with a stranger. Maybe encourage them to work through their problems rather than just validate every unhealthy behavior they exhibit.

People are like "5G is bad, don't do 5G, it's gonna massively restrict our ability to predict the weather, 50 years of advances in forecast accuracy will be undone just so cell phone companies can put a higher number on the box to sell new cell phones, oh no" But I say, everybody likes surprises.

My objection is that smartphones are already an unaffordable luxury that's inexplicably required for the barest unsustainable minimum of employment in the modern age and the subscription fee is gonna triple, and I'd actually be willing to wager money that the vast majority of subscribers don't see visible or tangible improvement for their extra money each month, just an accelerated bleeding.

That's why I use a cheap Motorola phone I bought for $200 and a Mint Sim plan that gives 3gig data and unlimited talk for $15 a month. I know someday this stuff will go away and I'll be forced into some bullshit plan but for now I'm going to be a luddite as long as possible.

Smart phones are cool and having an internet browser, cd player and camera in your pocket is awesome. People like to say its a major problem in society as if people didn't stare at newspapers in the 1920s. The problem isn't that humans have an online device they are obsessed with more than the real world. Its just a symptom of the real world being so drab in comparison.

Literally every new invention has been accused of all the current society's problems or had somebody claim that it will obliterate the human race. People are still around, there's 7 billion of us, our population is growing, and poverty is on the decline worldwide. I doubt the smart phone is going to reverse those trends. Yeah it isn't perfect but it always takes time to iron out the kinks. Granted part of that is because there's always That One rear end in a top hat that wants to be as much of a dick as possible with every new invention but, well, that's life. I, for one, really enjoy the fact that I have pretty much the entirety of humanity's knowledge in my pocket. It doesn't matter what I need to look up. It's there, on the internet, somewhere.

My PHUO is that we should put all of our R&D into breaking through with AI that is self-replicating, self-improving, and way smarter than us. The hope is that it'll work beyond simply binary logic and develop some measure of emotional intellect that it can use to understand the relative scarcity and thus sanctity of live on a cosmic scale, and thus shepherd us so we can all grow into the gross fat blobs from Wall-E.

I regret to inform you that the guy who invented the super robots was a racist, and they have used their advanced intelligence and capacity for self-improvement to become racist to a degree humans cannot comprehend.

I wouldn’t find a full Star Trek (or Matrix) VR life any less fulfilling than a real life. Like, I wouldn’t want to be locked in a One Million Merits cube with an oculus rift and a lifetime supply of soylent, but if I genuinely believe I’ve spent my life going on adventures with my husband Bilbo Baggins until the robots euthanize me, and think all my soylent was seed cakes and roast pheasant and lembas bread... that seems fine.

Eh, you don't need a personal computer anymore. It goes in your pocket, unless you have a lot of Steam games that need playing. Then there really is no help for you.
