And if AI ever breaks free, it's only going only get hungrier.

I grew up on science fiction as a kid. I'm amazed at how many far fetched ideas I read about as a kid are not fiction anymore. I remember how fantastical Dick Tracy's watch was.

He just turned 90, so we clipped his wings a while ago. The defining moment was one night as he was driving us home from a family gathering. A very clearly visible 4 way stop intersection was perfectly ignored and we just barreled right through, accompanied with the loud Dad! Dad! Dad! voices of alarm.

Wut? Was his only surprised reaction. We lived to tell the tale...that time.

It's a tough thing telling a seasoned car pilot he's getting grounded. He's now assigned to copilot with backseat driving duties.

Unfortunatley he relishes his "Pull up!...Pull up!" alert signal authority.

Got to be safer than my dad!

850 missing people is an astounding number for such a small area and nobody seems to know anything. I have a friend living on the other side of the island, and people there are angry at the entire handling of the situation. Resignations are already happening. Another strange fact, John Pelletier, of the Las Vegas massacre fruitless investigation fame is the commander in Maui.

As usual, the only solution is to charge more, oh and lets guess, a carbon tax.

I think unfettered humor should and will return. People are getting fed up with the I'm Offended Era. If you can't laugh about the absurdity of human behavior, don't make everybody else live in your miserable guarded world. Now I'm going to go binge on some Mel Brooks comedy gold.

Goodness, it might prompt music labels to actually produce something that doesn't sound like a robot made it, which is all they churn out now. A novel idea may come out of this, let real people make real music without the formulaic contraints and see if that sells.

Funny how China is selectively restrictive.

Astounding that people are invoking the government to fix the weather. Why empower them when their only solution is to pay them more carbon tax.

Is nothing sacred?! Covid has permeated everything we do!

Oh no, Canada is losing its free access to nothing worth reading!

Of course the only way to stop climate change is to pay more carbon tax. I'm not a big fan of this religion.

Sooner or later some zealot is going to push through a personal carbon footprint tax. It's all about control.
