- It tickles me that making Wall-E is possible with today’s technology, trivial even, but making Eva is essentially impossible.
this is not typical racism, but rather gaijin-sabetsu (xenophobia)- >Super Earth punishes soldiers for killing civilians
00:20 - You can write essays, books even, on why the best robot for a given job is not necessarily humanoid, but this video I think does a better job than any of hypothetical essay or book on why humanoid robots are absurd.In 5-6 years this will be real.
- There’s an XKCD for this
You could make an argument for some agricultural plants BECAUSE WHAT DO YOU MEAN LIKE HALF OF OUR VEGETABLES CAME FROM WILD MUSTARD This is botanical body horror - This reminds me of a paper which found out which gene got knocked out in snakes to make them limbless, and they proved it by knocking out the same genes in mice. Lo and behold, the mice had no limbs.
had this stuck in my head 🥲 - The vast majority of farms producing meat look like this actually
Replying to @RizomaSchoolonly a bug man would choose this over this - So in 2007 it was discovered that French civil servant was missing 90% of his brain tissue and he managed to still have an iq around 70-80. Much to think about.

This Post is from an account that no longer exists. Learn more- A lot of sci fi has the issue where the writers often don’t understand what the appropriate scale of their setting should be. Remember in Star Wars how the Kaminoans were only making a few million clones troopers for the war? HD2 on the other hand emergently gets numbers270 Million Helldivers have died on Oshaune
- Sometimes people try to highlight how cringe and bad weeaboos are by inverting it to be a Japanese guy aping American culture and it just never works since a foundational part of the U.S. is that nearly anyone can be an American. So a lot of Americans just think this is awesome.
