Nope. Unless you can quickly electrify all your vehicles, aviation, shipping, heavy trucks etc. then nuclear energy is not going to make any meaningfull difference. Train can help a bit I suppose, but other than that France is cooked as well as rest of us. There are ways to bypass this issue though via various means tho, so it's moreso medium - medium rare level of being cooked

Speak for yourself buddy. There's no way in hell I'm ever paying for pictures/videos and not call it a scam. Like, goddamn lmao

It depends on how effective this US ground operation that's about to unfold is going to be. But I doubt this war is gonna last years. There's not enough political capital in the US to make it continue and resources and money are being burnt throught way too fast. All of these operations are meant to be knockout blows, which they really are to a certain extent. This will probably turn into a cold war scenario, with either Iran or the US having the control over the flow of oil in the Persian gulf and the Strait of Hormuz. Which side it's gonna be is hard to predict. US can't back out of this one, there's just way too much at stake, so regardless of the level of administration's competence. US military cannot actually yeld and pull out of this one

It's never been a better time to be a small, self-sustaining farmer. The price of literally everything is about to increase significantly, especially if the price per barrel hits $200, which would be a historical record. However, economies will adapt eventually, and once the war ends, I bet the Strait of Hormuz will re-open. After a few months to years of demining and re-establishing lost trust and certainty, traffic will return to pre-war levels. And the price of oil will start to drop massively again. And you just know there are gonna be a couple of rich sleazeballs with insider information who'll be able to time that short with pinpoint accuracy lol

It was years of preparation and hard work from her lmfao. First she promoted herself on Dr. Phill as a bratty teen sparking fake outrage from consetards. Then she turned that into a rap career further expanding on that brattiness. And the day she turned 18, she reaped that simp harvest lmfao there's no way that was not calculated. Simps and their money are soon separated

I think in such a scenario there'd be endless things you could do. You could travel space forever (each star system and planet could be colonized and arranged in a completely different style and vibe). You'd be able to improve at certain skills for a very, very long time (such as chess, which has something like 10¹²⁰ possible games), you'd be able to put yourself into a simulation and experience scarcity again if you wished. You could learn about and study reality forever. The only real concern is whether there'd come a point at which you'd voluntarily want to quit life for good. Because you'd actually have to make a conscious decision to cease existing; since otherwise you'd just keep on going. That's something I'm not sure about

A Harry Potter remake, really? Nothing original created? This is so gay

@Natasha Tori Maru Personally, I would just like to extend my life and that's about it. But yeah, the possibilities stemming from such technologies are scary and are genuinely even revolting to some extent. Scary questions as well. Yeah, hard to answer

Makes sense to me, as expected A.I. of course lacks true agency and the very poor agentic inteligence performance in ARC-AGI-3 reflects that. I've tried one of those retro games and passed all 9 levels without too much problems, so the the fact none of those A.I.s could get even 1% is really showing where it's lacking. Good thing about it is, that we have more time to focus on a various security and ethical concerns, as well as having more time to meaningfully contribute to society and A.I. development if one chooses to go that direction

Idk bro is a little bit wacky, a little bit kooky to say the least. He's also spreading some missinformation like during that Tucker interview. Hopefully his predictions will turn out mostly wrong, though unfortunately they're not entirely baseless

It's a BS advice anyway, it's just yet another one of those catchphrases people pull out from their repertoire of shit phrases, along phrases like "love will find you when you least expect it" and "Balance in life is key" and shit like that lmfao. I call it the Normie Repertoire. But realistically, if you had only 1 day to live, that means that some apocalyptic event is about to happen, not that you have cancer or something. So there's no way you'd actually have time or opportunity to enjoy yourself the way you think you would. "Living as if it was my last day", for me would probably mean doing the same shit I done any other day. Not go fuck a bunch of hookers lmfao

I'm currently stage S&P 500 which is even beyond crystal, I'm so conscious I'm encompassing the entire US economy

I have noticed in fact. I've also noticed that they can be major pain in the ass for silly reasons, much more often than that

Sure, it's gonna do that among many other things that can be hardly even imagined. If we get to that ASI stage. Future's pretty scary tbh, but still better than the lame watered-down shit we got now and in the past

A.I. being just the tip of an iceberg is a bit of a stretch lol it pretty much is the entire iceberg. Without A.I. we probably aint getting shit, and probably will live out just a regular life. All of these inventions assume a helpfull, pro-human/pro life A.I. which will be helping us with everything including our research. Or at least that A.I. not being against us. Then it's GG for us most likely

At some point during the 80s neoliberalism started to get adopted by the Western world as a way to increase the state's GDP and economic output/competitiveness, emphasising free market values and less state intervention. The downside of such a system is that, given enough time, it eventually produces bad actors and elites who can potentially destroy the system itself and the democracy that allowed it to exist. However it also supercharges technological progress due to the principles of free market competition and the rapid commercialisation of new products, which tends to lead to high rates of flexibility and constant iterative improvement (with customer feedback serving as the end of each iteration). We can clearly see that with the rate of technological progress at this very moment. So, although the more Keynesian model of economics may lead to more decent living standards in the short term, it is actually technological progress which sets entirely new levels of living standards previously unimagined. It also leads to even more democratisation and liberalism, and we are nearing the end stages of that process

It's a nice conformity, I appreciate it. I'd like to hang around this place for couple centuries at least, with this body and ego. Or you just prefer respawning constantly? LOL maybe next life you respawn as an ant and you'll keep getting squashed and you'll just keep respawning every few minutes

They're maximizing their muscles i.e. testosterone. Which is fairly strange to me. But simps gonna simp regardless

Women into bodybuilding are weird lmfao I don't care if you call me a soy boy. It's not attractive at all on a woman

Yeah I think he'd continue. Living an elf-like existence is pretty cool regardless of philosophical implications and dimensions to this whole thing

I mean yeah, it might be literaly impossible to never die, but it certainly might be possible to extend your life dramatically. There are couple of species on this planet who are considered biologically immortal, meaning they essentially do not age because their stems cells keep regenerating or they start to age backwards when damaged. Trees age extremely slow and some of them have been existing for thousands of years. Bryan might be inefective about the methods he's attempting to achieve it (via specific diet, exercise, blood transfusion etc.) and his goal might be unachievable in the literal sense, but that doesn't mean that the research regarding aging and age reversal isn't moving forward or that it's not possible to extend human life, nor does it mean that his contribution isn't valuable at all
