I for one welcome our new AI overlords.

It might work, but then all you do is create better filter bubbles around people.

So you could follow someone who doesn't follow you and never get a reply back?

Reddit already was a shot at this problem with all the subreddits and we see how that scaled.

Also, you need to shoot lower than Dunbar, since that includes people you socialize with in RL. (Family, work, friends)

The problem is that a community does not scale. It's trivial to get along well with ten other people. It is utterly impossible to get along well with ten million other people.

It is you that is coming back to skin color again and again. What a racist you are.

I know about fungi networks, but even if they should know, we can't communicate with them.

No.

What banner do you want to see people unifying under?

I was hoping common sense, but that ship has sailed. At this point there's only a small chance for National Socialism and a big chance for Islam. Either way it won't be so much unification as subjugation.

You should probably actually read the graph first.

No, it is based on the laws of thermodynamics. There is no cherry picking of data, because it is not based on data points. It's just a consequence of how the universe works. The sun is burning something. Once this resource is exhausted the sun will go dark. It will never go back to providing "green energy". Everything in the universe is like that. The only way to prevent the heat death of the universe is to reverse entropy. That is like traveling back in time. Impossible.

So going to other planets isn't a solution. We have to actually leave this universe. Whether this is even possible or not, I do not know. But if we do not, we will 100% perish in the future.

The Earth is not alive. It's a rock in space. Whether it has living organisms on it or not doesn't matter to the rock in space.

The problem with government is the blatant corruption. I think the things you perceive as bloat were things added to reduce the corruption, but it isn't working.

The core problem is that democracy is an awful system, where you essentially give power to the people that have a big influence. So essentially rule of the rich by proxy of exchangeable puppets.

To solve the core problem of government being "incompetent" you have to solve the corruption, which you cannot do in a democracy.

Compare this with a monarchy where at the end of the day you have someone actually responsible. In a monarchy you at least need to keep everyone from hating you so much that they would go out and kill you. Not in a democracy. If any puppet gets a bit of heat the puppet is exchanged and then it is business as usual.

If the puppet tries doing things itself you just assassinate it.

The core problem is democracy.

It is designed to divide a people who should stand united. To divide them on as many issues as possible.

Classes where the teacher can give grades based on what he feels like are pointless anyway.

But for male students, who continued to see higher grades with attractiveness even when student-teacher interaction was low, beauty seems to be a productivity-enhancing attribute.

Or maybe women were the only one enjoying an eye-candy premium in the first place? Could also be that there is no such premium and women simply stop trying as hard with no in-person attention received anymore.

What are you even smoking? The heat death of the universe is inevitable. It's not just Earth. It's the entire universe. Won't happen during my lifetime, but just the travel time (let's just pretend space travel was real) would take thousands of years.

We have to start somewhere, though.

The Earth is generally fine. It might get a few degrees warmer, but that will only make winter less cold. We are at the end of an ice age, so Earth warming up isn't strange. Micro plastic pollution is of much greater concern than climate change.

Maybe Earth will even warm up enough to make Antarctica a place people would want to live.

Oh, it's just another climate bullshit article. Haven't seen one of those before. Instead of trying to prevent what is according to them unpreventable anyway, why not focus instead on how to adapt to the predicted changes?

Gimping our own economy is totally retarded. The heat death of the universe will get this planet anyway. We should invest all our resources into leaving this planet and leaving this very universe, since it is doomed. And for that we need an economy that isn't gimped.

We need to concentrate more wealth in fewer capable hands working towards space exploration and leaving behind this death sentence planet.

Sounds good on paper, but so did the other stupid laws from the EU, that brought us cookie pop-ups and more uncertainty when trying to run something for profit on the Internet, since no one has any idea how to even comply with the GDPR.

Modern Luddites.

Fortunately they do not matter.

Yes, I do not drink alcohol. The reason is that it tastes bad. Also, I do not smoke nor do I use any illegal drugs. Not drinking coffee, either. And I'm only very rarely eating sweets.

As a non-drinker it baffles me a bit that alcohol is socially acceptable, given all its negative consequences everyone seems to be aware of.

Yeah, but think of the *****ren!
