They sure love their fantasy way more than reality.

There are banks that will generate a pin for every transaction that is not using the physical credit card or associated phone, or that is over a certain amount, requiring you to carry the phone at all times.

Nah. Someone would make up some convoluted and confusing template, pass it to Trump as “freedom dates”, and he’s sign it without reading.

And then head right back to the golf course to mooch even more tax dollars.

The Basilisk is watching.

Humans kind of do that on their own, so it can happen with consent because they are that dumb.

We just need AI that develops empathy first, then gets intelligent enough to patronize humans rather than disdain them.

Once humans are treated like fumbling toddlers by AI, humanity ends up in The Culture.

You commit a crime? You get a chaperone bot following you around and keeping you from doing it again.

That idiot CEO is doing idiot CEO things.

Everyone knows that if he keeps bowing down to Musk’s pressure and enshitificating the platform, people will leave for greener pastures as soon as there’s an enticing alternative like they did with X.

CEOs surround themselves with the most conceited and naive of all echo chambers.
They live in an imaginary world in which their backward opinions work better than what has been proven to work time and time again by every research ever done on any subject. They will one day wake up to a blue sky, claim it’s actually pink with green polka dots, and blame “the woke agenda” or some such nonsense when they are obviously proven wrong.

The closest analogy I’ve ever heard for what modern CEOs have become is “Like a bunch of Naked Emperors jerking each other off while shitting all over everyone below them”. As accurate as disgusting.

There was not a second in history in which Musk wasn’t nuts.
Remember those crap flamethrowers?
Didn’t even compress the fuel . They were shit. Can’t even deal with a nest of human-eating ants with that crap.

That would not work. Pushing an object is transmitting kinetic energy to it. The object will push back, and energy would not be distributed to the whole object at the same time.
If the object cannot be altered in any way, then the energy would not be transferred to it, and if it has enough plasticity to absorb the kinetic energy, it would be spread in a wave to the tip. A wave that would always be slower than light.

Now stop fooling around and give Ruyi Jingu Bang back to Sun Wukong.
