  • The gurl is a bot, and can read and relate to all earth plays in a day of gleeful scanning. Pretty sure she can experience growth from child to teen, then download and integrate a year at the academy and process that input with the new perspective, then move forward still being the same person, just being more complex as a result of the upgrade.

    The biggest issue with her 17 year childhood is that she appears to be alone with one other hologram on a starship, which wouldn’t exactly allow her to experience and process many normal experiences for people living in communities with mortal folk and pets n such–unless they added life like simulations, other school students, neighbors of varying ages and attitudes, pets that die…

    She needed opportunity to deal with real world stresses as they typically increase in severity with age, but she just seemed to get a very performative and sheltered 17 year biological development cycle added to her program.

    Seemed to miss the mark by a mile.



  • A non-profit community service.

    We need an international digital media co-op library.

    Anyone can upload/donate their digitally owned content and share ownership with the community… Or people can pool funds with the community and it can buy digital content as a non-profit co-op with shared ownership and access. Then use private torrents to decentralize data hosting and improve streaming to members.

    Imagine Netflix as a non-profit digital library.

    Movies, TV shows, eBooks, magazines, and music.

    Maybe Cuba would be willing to host it’s main office?


  • I initially put down a deposit on a Cybertruck at announcement, figured I might use it for camping.

    Decided against it because it didn’t meet my quality and feature requirements at release.

    Had one drive across in front of me in a hardware store parking lot with a big Trump sticker in the window, suggesting he was riding along.

    So glad I never had one. Just no.

    It’s a very different experience than seeing just any old car with a political bumper sticker on it. It’s not like it’s a big deal if somebody else with a Carola or Blazer happens to have differing political views.

    The pro-Tesla group were primarily very environmentally savvy and mostly liberal for the longest time. Then it suddenly shifted into some really nasty cult BS.

    On the flip side, there are still a lot of model 3s and Ss and Ys in the area, and I don’t think I’ve ever even seen a sticker on one of those cars, and I’ve never known their owners to be crazy Elon cult jerks (I’m sure some are, just my experience here).

    I wouldn’t buy one now, but they used to just seem like cool and more sustainable cars.

    It’s a real share Elon had to ruin that.

    My hope is that he is removed from the equation and the company can shake off the cult and get back to doing well as a smaller clean car manufacturer.
