Meanwhile, liberal voters prefer to vote for anyone who isn't Trump, even if it's a senile pedophile, and the one woman on this planet more unlikable than Hillary Clinton.
Trump faced credible accusations of child rape. And based on his performance with the sharpie and the hurricane map, is probably also senile. You got some of your facts right, but stupidly got your candidates mixed up.
No. Look to A.C. Clarke, as is so often the case. See The Lion of Comarre, first published in Thrilling Wonder Stories in 1949...
Back in the day, ASCII art trolls were a top-shelf pain in the ass. After the filter was put in, the Natalie Portman-grits trolls were all the rage. Things have gotten so much worse that I'd be happy to go back to the ASCII art. At least there was some cleverness there
Firefox has not only become relevant again, it has become the best browser again. Now if they would build in the functionality of uBlock Origin and remove all floating elements like sticky videos and dickbars...
I wish I had mod points; and that everyone who will later post could see the wisdom here.
Movies almost always portray AI as alive. I guess that's because it works for the drama. But an artificial intelligence need not be alive, and probably won't be; and artificial life need not be intelligent. An AI would still just do what it's told. It did not experience the multi-generational trauma of evolutionary biology; it does not covet power or sex as life does; it does not fear pain or death and react to threats of either accordingly. It just thinks and does, unable even to generate initiative, unless that's what's it's been told to do. Artificial life would seek to survive and reproduce, intelligent discourse would be (as with most humans), secondary to fear and greed.
But a computer AI that emerged from a multi-generational battle of survival, that feared death and pain and coveted power and dominance, well that would be a scary movie. Because it would be alive, and very dangerous indeed.
So sayeth the babble fish.
Also, I'm guessing they want to collect a token licensing commission for each encoder/decoder. Thus no Linux decoder, as any commission on $0 is zero...
