Are you in favor of, or against wide scale automation?
Do you believe it will lead to a NEET paradise where 90% of the population are NEETS living off of basic income paid by tax money from the companies owning the robotos, or do you believe it will lead to a dystopia where 90% of the population are fighting over rat carcases in the sewers?

Interesting take, and you are probably right!
Service by humans - that is indeed something I already want when I try get customer service for example, it already feels like a luxury instead of "talking" with a scripted "robot".
Also, some industries that you craft luxury items by hand are already highly valued while the more automated trash the machines create (example: shoe industry).
Maybe the only path humanity has is the way Elon Musk talks about - we have to merge with machines.
Tbh I would find it a relief to know all the mathematical formulas are automatically memorised for me - it would turn a retarded bydlo like me into a civilized person. The standards to excel in that world would grow tremendeously.
I think that will happen. We will use technologies like CRISPR to eradicate ugliness and diseases, humanity will basically turn into elves.
A good robot can replace a poo-loo/third world worker. Just like street sweeping machines replaced street cleaners in the past. Of course, still somebody has to operate that machine. But still, one sweeping machine operator will replace 10 street cleaners. It might be a chance for non-enriched eastern European countries to deal with demographic change. It's a good thing.
Had my second panic attack in under a month. As I neared my building, my ears began to dampen, I felt the blood drain from my head and my neck tighten. If this continues, I'll be passing out and fearing to smack my heda.
Very odd that I never experienced these before and they suddenly come out of the blue.

Fools. If I was a president, I'd focus resources on:
a.) cloning, including cloning with adjusted characteristics (smarter, stronger and healthier then humans 1.0);
b.) artificial wombs;
c.) AI, including AI with advanced human interaction interfaces (i.e. androids). When they will reach the 100 IQ - they'd need to be given all the rights and responsibilities of a citizen.
We don't need a war with robots - we need to fully integrate them in our society. Who cares if someone has a metal skeleton and a silica brain if she is hot, always cheerful and fully ready to bear you children.
Do you listen to your music in lossy or lossless quality?
24 messages omitted.
Sound has these dimensions: amplitude, frequency, and phase. The human ear can only hear a spectrum of amplitude (1000 Hz - 5000 Hz) and frequency (20 Hz - 20 kHz).
Mp3 and other lossy formats generally try and remove at a minimum what the human ear cannot hear but often will remove more, lossless formats like flac do not remove anything.
Almost all formats include compression, because you can compress files without data loss.
I don't get trans and non-binary people.
I mean I kinda understand if you want to switch genders, but I don't get this weirdness about being they/them and stuff. I think they are either just doing it for attention, sjw-points or haven't yet fully accepted that they're trans.

Trannyism is less about strongly feeling that you are the opposite gender, but rather just misc. identity disorder where they themselves have no idea what the fuck they are.
It's not that they are women born in a man's body, but they are men that just feel "off".
Once they transition, cut off their dicks, take hormones, they realize they still feel "off", and that's when they KYS.
It's a mental identity disorder, not "being born in the wrong body disorder".
For some trannies transitioning is enough of cope for them to not go full KYS mode, but for most it's not.
Successful trannies also tend to pass really well and find newfound attention, success and social connections they never previously had, and all this will negate the natural KYS feels they might have.
So in the end it's not about successfully transitioning into your "true gender" but about finding some niche where you can cope with your absolutely fucked sense of identity with.
Transitioning is a cope at best, which doesn't even work for most trannies.
But the fact is that nothing can halt the ever-increasing recurrence of those moments when your total isolation, the sensation of an all-consuming emptiness, the foreboding that your existence is nearing a painful and definitive end all combine to plunge you into a state of real suffering.

Thank dog i was blessed with a rich internal world and certain level of detachment to the outer one.
Sometimes i go for months not speaking to anyone IRL and i feel just fine. Internet offers me all the socialization i need.
One downside is that whenever i once a few months go talk to my shrink, and i haven't actually spoken to anyone in months a single word, it's actually quite startling how difficult it is to form thoughts to words; i just become this stuttering retard who's incapable of forming sentences with more than 3 words.
Could you ever imagine that one day you'll have a conversation with a mad pidorashka from the middle of taiga forests who never left borders of his country, and even never was in Moscow (me). That he will post text in English language and ask if you want to see his genitals?

When I was a child I read a lot of old Donald Duck comics. I remember in some of them that took place in old Tsaric Russia, the tradition of breaking glasses was predicted there heavily (Стаканы бить ?). The Russian characters really liked throwing their glasses and shattering them.
How common was that tradition, during what period did it become popular, was it commong among commoners or only the aristocrats?
I'm having trouble finding a good article about this subject since I am not really sure what I am supposed to google about, not even the correct term. Further information is required.
>According to the legend, people present during this episode misinterpreted the Tsar's words and thought that Peter called to break the glasses (Russian: Стаканы бить! - literally beat glasses or break glasses), that's how a tradition of breaking drinkware on certain occasions appeared in Russia. Glasses were broken after especially important toasts or just during the especially cheerful parties. Russian restaurants even held a special prices for breaking the glasses. Breaking of drinkware, or, in wider context, any tableware, is believed in Russia to bring luck and happiness.
My lack of knowledge of this subject greatly annoys me, even if might be trivial for some.
