if i was going to be worried about anything it would be a "pole shift" caused by forces within our planets crust. that would be a pretty big problem, but not really something anyone could do anything about. or a meteor.

like if we got hit by a meteor that, yeah sure blew up some stuff and made it cloudy. but a bigger problem might be if it altered our axial tilt or altered our orbit slightly. that would probably be bad.

or like whatever happened to the planet that used to be between mars and jupiter that we refer to as "The asteroid belt" instead of "the planet that got destroyed for some reason"

I think we're all agreed here that the rich are going to use climate change to kill us all, we just differ on the method

i guess there are a lot of things to be worried about, but not a lot we can do about it so maybe we should spend more time trying help people and being kind to one another and put our faith in jesus christ to handle the rest.

dad gay. so what posted:or like whatever happened to the planet that used to be between mars and jupiter that we refer to as "The asteroid belt" instead of "the planet that got destroyed for some reason" tbqh i dont understand why people arent talking about this more. its kind of a big deal. i mean it was a whole frikken planet. it probably has something to do why all life on mars has been forced into underground ice caves as well.

you dont hear a lot talk about what will happen when our universe reaches a state of maximum entropy and succumbs to heat death on the news these days. it seems like that would be a pretty big deal that no one can do anything about as well.

why do we all talk about the robot future like they're going to be perfect replicating devices when you know drat well that people will be the ones making them and we're deeply flawed. robots dont fix errors they replicate them and multiply them. robots wont succumb to the normal laws of nature and improve. the 4th generation of robot built robots will be spinning in circles and randomly exploding because some nob who wrote the code for gen 1 200 years earlier had a bit out of place which has now spread all over the whole code because in the end a robot built robot would be a clone copying errors and not improving itself. i dont care either way as i fix robots for a living so i'll be set right up until i die. probably crushed by one because im an idiot on day and forgot to do something while fixing one.

remember when people in the 19th and 20th century predicted the future and they thought we'd all have flying cars by now lol seriously though don't even try to predict the future you'll just look dumb. i mean look at that diner scene from back to the future 2 or whatever

Hey, all I know is that my crap job can be replaced right now with existing tech, as with all of my friends and family. We all know someone whose company fired some people, and instead of filling in the gap with new hires, they dump more work onto the existing hires. Automation will mean more of that.

It'll probably be cheaper to just vacuum out the brains of third-world infants, replace the higher brain with a rudimentary AI and pump them up to premature adulthood with growth hormones. Walking, talking human biodrones, ready to replace every service industry job from executive assistant to door greeter to prostitute.

I've been doing robotics as a career for 10 years. I can't wait guaranteed job anywhere! Jump on board, you see the wave coming. Get some electronics, PLC, mechanic, computer repair type experience and run with it. Not everything is really technical. The kiosks used for ordering food are just a computer, touchscreen and some basic networking. If you are good with technology, can work on computers, and know a little networking than you can be a service tech on numerous machines (Red box, coinstar, vending machines, any touch screen kiosks, ATM's, etc. It's not as hard as it seems if you have an interest and already kinda into that stuff. Most people on something awful are pretty tech savvy or else you wouldn't even know about this place...
