We'll eventually break up into walled gardens with identity restricted webs where anonymity isn't allowed.

The left has been going on about GMO food for years, now the right is doing their version with lab grown meat. Not sure what they are so afraid of, it isn't like it is in any position to surpass natural meat anytime soon. It is anti business also.

The epitomy of a "first world problem". Nothing more pathetic than whiny gamers.

How is facial recognition an "invasion of privacy" when it comes to TSA screening? You are already required to present IDs and be body scanned. Checking your identity is their job. This isn't like it is being run on a street and checking random pedestrians.

Meanwhile I can't get my goddamn bluetooth to connect from my phone to my car from 2 inches away.

Even if they could extend life for hundreds of years it would be terrible for society. Usually the only relief people get from dictators or business moguls is they eventually have to die. Society would stagnate as people clung to wealth and positions seemingly forever.

Harvard's record with unscientific and bogus claim making staff isn't looking good. First they have Avi Loeb who is one step away from the "Alien did it" big hair guy, now they have this guy. Seems Harvard will let you do or say anything as long as it makes them money or gets them attention.

Just a reminder, the margin of error for a laser to drift off target in a system failure is great enough that having radio as a backup is still needed. You'd at the very least need it to be able to send commands. In the meantime, when everything is working, this would be a huge boost in transmission rates.

I have yet to run into a person anywhere on earth who didn't want more money.

Just don't do it during my lifetime. Let someone else deal with that shitstorm.

Just say something is "to protect children" and you can ban anything

What is the point to this? You better ban all pens, pencils, crayons, paints, etc because they can all be used to create a nude of anyone you want.

So that explains why now I'm seeing Sponge Kim Leader Pants, Party Guy, Kim and Morty, North Park, etc

The pandemic and working from home have probably been the biggest effect during that period.

Reminds me of the DMV (dept of motor vehicles) sites that I kept getting when I was searching for the real state DMV. They were offering a service that was basically them doing what was already free. The site was so sneakily named and designed that I was a totally confused and about to enter my info before I dug in more deeply and realized the scam.
