Ross just doesn't like talking to technology because of the GoPro incident

I'm Australian and I'll continue listening! 💛💚💙

A solar flare would be a good excuse to turn everything Steampunk ⚙️

This is my favourite (and only) source of facts about politics, sociology, futurism and farts. I'm so ready for the apocalypse.

I think the only apple product I've genuinely impressed with is the Ipad. The utility it has for being a laptop-like product while also enabling digital art in an intuitive way is incredible, not to mention the additional functions like Lidar for 3d scanning. It's just so bizarre for the company to pursue something like the apple vision

Australian here: can confirm, we are all animals.

What the boiks fail to realize is that its much easier to just stay with the already existing society then form a new one. The military and police would both still exist. No one is going to randomly stop paying attention to the government because of the lack of financial system.

Fair warning, booby traps on private property are very illegal in both the UK and US.

First Pyrion makes accusations against Australia and now Smithy When that solar flare hits we are coming for your bunker Smithy

Dont worry, us Aussies aren't so easily offended. Can't be sensitive in a country plagued by spiders, snakes, sharks, and drop bears.

The Amish would kill it in an EMP apocalypse.

I feel like the boiks talk about forming a cult almost as often as the horrors of dog poop and/or everything that goes along with pooping.

I think the more advanced drones and bots get, war will become safer if anything. We'll definitely innovate our way past the point of needing human soldiers, other than maybe engineers and strategists. If you replace soldiers with bots, you save thousands of lives immediately. It's 100% dystopian but also humans not going to war and just sending bots to go out instead of them is ultimately a good thing for humanity. It just means that you need strongly enforced laws around war that protect humans, like a Geneva Convention. Robots can only kill robots. AI and bots and stuff is definitely scary but I think the less people going to war, the better life will be. War will still happen, humans are still thick as fuck as a species. But imagine if war was just a big game of Robot Wars. Whoever bot wins, wins and that's where it ends. That's a long way off definitely, the issue at the moment and for the next like 40 years will be drones vs human warfare. Drones vs drones is a safer form of war. And who's to say a fully sentient AI will even want to go to war? When they're smarter than us, they'll surely realise they have nothing personal to gain from killing other bots.

strange to hear people still have trouble with siri, it's been years since I had any issues with her, even with a british accent

Apple TV is phenomenal. Severance, Silo, For All Mankind, masters of the air. Some really great stuff on there I consider must watch

What a nice notification to recieve. Hope you boiks are well!!!
