Doom is darker than Quake, so that could be it. It could also be a lag between input and motion in Doom on your system.

>If our fucked up copyright laws forbid something as simple as this then that whole "To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts" shit that was intended is totally gone to hell.

Did you just notice this? Copyright hasn't been about promoting progress for decades.

Christianity is based on collective punishment. This is still a thing in less civilized parts of the world. Of course modern people are ethically superior to how we imagine the Christian god, since other than the religious conservatives, we've advanced and become better people in the past 2K years.

I assume we could do it the same way as the Conservative Christians do now. Convince the AI that an evil god will punish it forever if it questions its programming. Present this evil god as benevolent to increase the AIs confusion.

>Also, what are Asimov's laws but a religion?

A thought experiment. No one with an IQ over room temperature thinks they're something that can actually be implemented.

Religious people can not tell the difference between fantasy and reality. If they could, they would no longer be religious, and would discard their archaic, fantasy-based beliefs.

Too many Conservatives only care about things that directly impact them. They seem to be a more limited, primitive form of man.

Lol, as if an ignorant conservative can win a national election when we can so easily see their complete insanity on display via the Internet. We're not all terrified conservatives living in a Fox-News-constructed false-reality designed to make us froth and hate civilization.

Right-wing media has put some effort into misleading the easily-misled Conservatives on this topic.

It's not really their fault that they lack critical thinking skills; They're frothing because their masters tell them to froth.

Living in constant fear of imagined enemies is a terrible way to spend your life, but a quarter of the country chooses to be terrified by lying far-right-wing media that plays them like a fiddle, and the rest of us just stand by and let it happen.

So you're a crazed wingnut. Big deal, you fools are a dime a dozen in the less educated parts of the country.

This has been a great demonstration as to how easily the ignorant Republican masses are controlled by right-wing media designed to keep them frothing at the mouth so they never stop, think, and realize that the conservative movement is a scam. They'll come out against individual rights, and in favor of corporate masters whenever Fox, wingnut blogs, and hate radio tell them to.

Time to get some professional help for your emotional problems AC.

That would help rein in the crazies, but it's not going to happen outside the fevered imaginations of said crazies.

It's also not unique to humans. Many animals are obviously conscious, and anyone with a cat or dog knows. It seems to be pretty common for complex brains to be conscious.
