I answer it with evolution, so the egg came first, and the first chicken came from an egg laid by something very close to, but not quite, a chicken.

But it also makes me wonder: How far apart in mutations does something have to be before it is considered an entirely new thing?

You just put your fingers together and blow.

Wait… 🤔

Shitting feels good… I would just alter it so it doesn’t smell bad, tastes like brownie batter, and isn’t toxic.

I rarely have seen a movie that didn’t have both. 🤨

I was about to say the same thing until I thought “well, what if the person who lost it actually goes to the police seeing if it was found?”

It might not be too uncommon if it’s a small town for there to be a lost and found thing there. The small town I grew up in had one.

With how many movies are constantly being churned out, I consider even 5-10 year old movies to be “old.” The same way a meme older than a week on the internet is old.

Sex isn’t the only kind of intimacy.

I have close to $10 on it, but you can only spend them on certain items and I haven’t seen an item under $50 that you can use the points on, let alone anything I actually want.

Would it be morally unobjectionable? Yes.

Would they have the legal right? I would wager, no. At least not at that point, since it’s being assumed they are still treated as property in the given context.

And unlike Data who got a trial to set precedent on AI rights, this hypothetical robot probably would simply be dismantled.

Depending on the thing, like an expensive car they are merely leasing: Optics.

“I bought a social media website for $44 billion, so you know I have money and am super smart and cool.”

I even learned that local language changes things from a couple replies, which I hadn’t considered.

Because that’s the only way I’ve ever even heard it pronounced. This thread is gonna be wild.

Pure projection. Leftists aren’t the ones who think vaccines are bad and die to easily preventable diseases.

Yeah. It’s called Reddit. Filled with Nazis. You’d love it.

I wouldn’t.

I would suck dick for free.

They probably make more money selling data collected from its use through any means, than they do selling ads in their own apps.

Remember: If the thing is free, you are the actual product getting sold.

I really only see that with electronics and mechanical parts. Maybe it’s because they just make so many slightly different variants, and the average person using the parts aren’t necessarily the ones buying and installing the parts, it’s just easier to give them a serial number instead of an easy to remember name?

It does make it harder to recommend a thing when asked. Like every time someone asks about good headphones, I have to find the random letters and numbers of what the set I have actually are to suggest them.

Australians and New Zealanders are here and on a different continent.

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, so that I may destroy them once and for all.
