Just sayin'

I'm not worried at all that machines will think like humans. I'm very worried that humans will think like machines.

Back in the 70's and 80's, Long Island Lighting Company built a complete 820 MW nuclear plant that never operated beyond some initial low-power testing.

That we should trust women to make their own choices? Was that it?

Yiannopoulos added this his philosophy as an owner "would be very simple: free-speech central, no ifs, no buts."

Let me know how that goes for you 5 seconds in when somebody posts child porn or makes a credible threat of violence.

So you're going to break out of the simulation and get into the real world. Best of luck to you, Neo. Problem is, once you're in the real world, you're right back to square one. Still only a 1 in a billion chance that it's actually real.

While we find Russia was extremely careless with their handling of information, we find that there was no ill-intent so we won't be taking any action against them.

When I saw how much weight he lost and how much more dignified he looked since LOTR, my hopes for the Hobbit movies fell drastically.

jigawatt's first rule of slashdot: Every scientific discussion on slashdot devolves into a heated argument about what science actually is.

Some people are. And some of them work for your local Planned Parenthood affiliate. See - http://liveaction.org/projects - for more details.

So offering true pertinet information to someone in an effort to help them make a more informed choice would be manipulating them? And I suppose things like lying about fetal development and covering up rape are not manipulative? Cause that's what Planned Parenthood does to help moms make their choice.

Some (not all) pro-choicers are de facto pro-abortion. Why does Planned Parenthood charge moms for ultrasounds while cpc's all over the country give them for free?

Interestingly, the quote at the bottom of slashdot right now is - "Everyone is entitled to an *informed* opinion." -- Harlan Ellison

This is exactly what an ultrasound does - it gives the mom more information and makes her more informed. Why do some Planned Parenthood clinics (like in New Jersey) not even do ultrasounds unless the mom already wants an abortion? Why do other PP clinics do ultrasounds but not let the mom see them, even if they ask? I'll go ahead and answer: when moms see an ultrasound they are way more likely to not abort. A more informed mother means less money for PP. Simple as that.

I expect to see opposition to this from some pro-choicers.

Moller doesn't have a flying car of any kind. He has a camera, some editing tools, and a hat turned upside down.

This complete waste of earthly resources would cause the actual doomsday scenario that it's ostensibly protecting us against.
