Bloom County was about as tendentious in their criticism as Doonesbury.
That comparison is really unfair to Bloom County, because:
a) Bloom County was actually funny, not just smug and pretentious.
b) Berkley Breathed, unlike Gary Trudeau, didn't spend all day just smelling the fragrant scents of his own liberal farts.
c) Berkley Breathed could draw well and write well.
I think the bias comes from the fact that 100% of the expected audience is human. Which will be fine until aliens inevitably see it, and we know what happens then.
For those interested, the documentary Black Sky is a must-see on explaining how this concept (and SpaceShipOne in general) works.
If (H1B == true) then great
else bad
Good directors just use AI as a convenient literary device for exploring the HUMAN condition.
Real AI would be boring as fuck.
Cash isn't going anywhere.
Nonsense, I hear Greece has already adopted the cashless system in full.
Computer theft near shitty neighborhoods on the rise.
It took me forever to find, but there it is, right next to the freedom of the press clause, in a whole section about this, right at the top of the Bill of Rights. Very easy to gloss right over that.
In all fairness, the Bill of Rights is hard to read--since it's covered in Dick Cheney's and Barak Obama's shit after they wiped their asses with it for 14 years.
My dream is that I win the lottery.
(which is even more impressive considering that I'm not dumb enough to buy lottery tickets)
Was it tough going from being a journalist and politico to becoming a hard-working developer at a legendary game and media studio like Giant Spacekat?
What engine do you develop on? DO you have an on-site rendering farm that you work directly with, or do you outsource it?
How do you find the time for public speaking with all the 60+ hour weeks that you must put into developing Giant Spacekat's massive games and interactive media library?
Are you tired of ignorant people saying your "developer" title is just a joke and that your game company is just a sad front for your real job of gender hustling?
a county that is actively trying to spread Democracy in every country it has ever invaded?
What country would that be? Because you sure as shit aren't talking about the U.S. The U.S. has set up more puppet governments and banana republics (including one in Iran) than probably any country since the British Empire. And there was nothing remotely resembling "democracy" in any of them.
I have a tiger repelling rock to sell you. Very cheap.
I hear the Springfield Bear Patrol has been so successful that there hasn't been a single bear attack in all of Springfield this year.
No, I don't... That is Saudi Arabia's problem, let them spend their money and military on that one.
Oh, Saudis have already been spending their money on ISIS.
Nuking both is an option.
Oh yes, because that certainly won't start WWIII.
when there are always options beyond those.
No, there really aren't. Iran, the Assad government, and the Kurds are the only serious opposition to the ISIS caliphate right now. The only other option with any reasonable chance of success would be to reinstate the draft in the U.S. and send a massive U.S. invasion force into Iraq and Syria. And I'm pretty sure that ain't happening anytime soon.
Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.
