  • You’re right, material matters. If it’s not a biological organism with cell/s, it’s not sentiant or intelligent.

    If humans just disapeared right now, ai would sit and do nothing. It wouldn’t “take over” or “break out” it would sit idle until a human (well I guess another living organism was capable of using keyboards and mouse) interacted with it.

    All those elements you listed plus all from the periodic table of elements do not define a living, intelligent, sentiant organism. If they did, soil and cow paddies would be living.

    I highly recommend going back to middle school science class again.




  • I would say playing pokemon. I spent countless hours with friend and family battling and trading through out the generations. One would be ny parents took my brother, best friend, and I to a Pokemon Black & White promo pre-release demo release in a mall a few hours away.

    The mall had a few pokemon inflatables scattered around the mall (like Zekrom and Reshiram) and an area with DS to play for X anount of minutes. We waited in line (the mall was fairly empty due to a bad snow storm heading in the area) for a short time and got to play.

    I was excited due to the new seasonal changes (which was unique mechanic) and battles. I took a couple of photos (with my sliding pre smartphone and got a pin of one of tje flagship pokemon.

    I do wish I had my old phone because my parents took a photo of my friend, my brother, and I standing in front of one of the inflatables.

    After losing my brother to suicide last year and unable to stay in contact with my long time best friend due to reasons, I cherish going to expos and gaming events.

    Looking back now just shows how video games have a huge impact growing up for everyone.

    Awesome post OP and romhacks are fun to play. I played a lot of pokemon romhacks and I feel gamers now don’t have that experience we had.



  • So tell me how am I going to track down scammers with VOIP and fake numbers? Do you think the tax payers will fund hundreds of thousands of dollars to fly to third world countriee to arrest their citizens? Do you even think other countries even give a shit about our warrants from some podunk rural county?

    And no local or county agency has the manpower, technology, or ability to track those scammers. You have no clue even the slightest about these scams.

    Most of the scam companies run their calls through a VPN or VPS wih constant number changes and VOIP, sometimes stolen numbers. It’s incredibly hard to trace it just through the phone. Even if you do, the scammer’s country isn’t going to do jack shit about it.

    I just find it bullshit people who tell public servants how to do their job when they have no clue about any of it. eDgEy
