This is how the meme should be used.

They saw things. Terrible, horrible things.

I thought he was perfect in Bladerunner 2049. He's got creepy narcissist down.

Where the peak is depends on how you measure it. Wavelength or frequency gives different curves. If measures as a perfect blackbody the peak is green (which is connected to why chlorophyll took off, even though it's less efficient for energy capture). But we get all visible light to some degree, so its color is white. Classification has a different meaning than what it looks like.

I don't disagree at all with that aspect. As a minority who has been screaming at the others, it's hard to both try to explain why we're going down this path while totally understanding why the world is looking at us like we're all insane. Fire may be the only remedy at this point.

I disagree with the timeline. I'm old, and things were already in motion when I was born. This has been a long train wreck with so many false points of hope and promises of change tricking and deluding us.

I have the same take on humanity as a whole. It's been a long road of disappointment with lots of missed exits to possible better times.

Yes, I guess. But can they? Without consequences, that is.

I suppose everyone has their own set and level of consequences that keep them from immediately reacting or trying to stop events.

No way humans could have done that on their own. Inconceivable.

It's not necessarily garbage, but it sure isn't curated either. Throwing everything into the blender and hoping the mechanism will usually spit out good info is a scientific spinning of the roulette wheel. Sometimes the odds are pretty good. Sometimes they're horrible, and you should know better than to expect anything but.

But AI has become the shiniest hammer, and every damn thing is a nail now.

Using Linux and everything else not Microsoft:

"I'm doing my part!"

so 42.

I'm all for it. I think it was the initial vision for the internet and web, and we got sidetracked by growth and commercialization. I do have to wonder if such a move did happen, a sudden shift of mainstream to here (in general, the Activity Pub's various forms), could it handle it? Fast growth was a huge hit with the Reddit migration(s), and that was "just" Reddit.
