The Nerd Reich

Just need a third one for when the second one breaks while servicing the broken first robot.

I miss the pre-www world (but I was just a kid then, and being a kid was pretty great).

If we could go back to about 1994 tho when all I had was a mostly dumb cell phone, that'd be great. I do miss that world.

This seems ripe for a joke akin to "how was the food?" "bad, but at least the portions were big!"

Like, "how was the medical advice" "worse than a doc's, but at least it was cheaper!"

One statue of liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World, Liberty Island, NYC) is approximately 4 times the size of one statue of liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World replica, Île aux Cygnes, Paris).

Easy peasy.

I am sympathetic to your analogy. I think it works well enough.

But it falls a bit short in that encyclopedias, lossy or not, shouldn't affirmatively contain false information. The way I would picture a lossy encyclopedia is that it can misdirect by omission, but it would not change A to ¬A.

Maybe a truthy-roulette enclyclopedia?

I send texts via voice command/dictation all the time. How would this be distinguished?

Isn't a solution to assign vicarious liability to whomever approves the use of the decision-making machine?

Humans do like to fuck.

NB: "the only one that does[n't] make my finger pads feel sore is the macbook"

This is seriously the thing I like the most about my 2017 and 2023 macbooks. The trackpad feels so good. Every other manufacturer that I have tried, and no it is not all of them but a lot, they all make my fingers feel bad after using them. I don't know if they are rougher or textured somehow? The only one that does make my finger pads feel sore is the macbook.

Surely the hopes for Pope Pizzaballa is in part because of his name?
