    Westworld

    No one. This was done purely for the hosts--it was the only way to program them to make it absolutely believable so their consciousness would be kick started and they would react as hostile machines wary of humans. Everything will now be absolutely authentic for the guests. MIB was a beta...

    Westworld

    All hosts, programmed to appear human (Remember they specifically say they have the ability to do this). Why? Because a back story and corner stone memory is important to make the hosts believable and build their personality. This entire thing was the corner stone memory for a park built off of...

    Westworld

    The hosts didn't gain consciousness guys. Ford unlocked a new park--future world. Where the challenge is real, and the fight against the machines has begun.

    Moonlight (2016)

    Black people are over-represented for their population in movie roles. Do you believe to be NOT racist we should skew toward people of color absent merit or other considerations (Because if you believe all people are equal, then only 1 out of every 12-14 mainline actors should be black, when we...

    Moonlight (2016)

    Lets say MBJ was snubbed. How many massive snubs have happened over the years? You bring like 2 anecdotes of POSSIBLE opinions on snubs and use that to justify a blanket statement about potentially the most liberal place ON EARTH. If you can believe Hollywood is racist, at this point, what the...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Which is the irony, because it goes to prove the majority of white people are actually not racist, sexist jerk offs; they care more about the content of the movie than the races and sexes of people in it. Trying to make them mad with that won't work--because your belief doesn't match reality...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Yes, everyone knows Imperials were a metaphor for Nazis, and non-humans species not being represented in the Empire was a form of racism/supremacy (The whole BH scene they were commenting on more than their profession), while the Rebels had tons of aliens, which was a metaphor for different...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    The difference was, before? "White males" also helped oppose them--these last few iterations we kind of got confirmation they specifically are using women and people of color to defeat the evil white males. First writer posted this. Second writer posted this. “Opposed by a multicultural...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    Cooperatives that used American machinery, American built infrastructure, American trade contacts and contracts, and American human capital that showed best practices given the technology used. When the U.S. was warning Cuba? It was 'warning' them in the sense that it believed Cuba wouldn't...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    Well, that's what private industry does, right? The Cuban people wanted their mines working and the infrastructure built on their land (Rather than letting the U.S. process it), the Americans wanted a stockpile of Cobalt and Nickel because WW2 shortages scared the shit out of them. They both got...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    It's amazing--people often use the reaction to that manifesto to argue AGAINST Lend's point. I have never seen someone bring it up in defense of the U.S. wanting to annex Cuba. You'd think a country which literally killed the people who supported that kind of policy making wouldn't be accused of...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    A segment that literally lost a war and was crushed politically, and physically under the boots of the people who opposed this? Do you think this proves your point? (And beyond that...how are you not embarrassed yet? That was a major debate mistep, which clearly showed you don't know your...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    I'll respond to the above too, later when I have time to shit on it--but this one I think is a great example of how Castro preyed on people not understand what the hell was going on. The U.S. at the time was luke warm on continuing its nickle mining operations that it had begun all the way back...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    You mean the manifesto we rejected politically, and even ended in American bloodshed to ensure it would never happen, and instead chose to fight for your freedom therefore crystallizing our intent as not being colonizers and slave holders? Uhh, I think it does illustrate how the U.S. was really...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    Good job reading a Wiki Page Lend--again, you realize in context the U.S. at the time was working to try and get rid of your own corruption--which is what JFK was directly addressing. American businesses pumped billions of dollars into your economy, and when corruption began to rampantly take...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    I'm going to use this example to show you how fucking dumb you are--and I want you to take it to heart. This little blurb? Is from JFK--here is it in context. Mr. Nixon could not see then what should have been obvious - and which should have been even more obvious when he made his ill-fated...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    Lend, of course, leaves out a lot of history--the reason we wanted the amendment was because that was already our third (Sizable) excursion into the country due to instability and European powers affecting it. It should be noted, all of these were ASKED for by the Cuban people after decades of...

    Fidel Castro is dead

    As I pointed out to Lend (And he's obviously still buthurt I knew more about his history than him)--the actual history behind this is a lot more complex. The U.S. was on the losing end of many of these arrangements, spending far more and getting less than the Cubans. Every time we went to Cuba...

    Game recommendations

    The only other game not mentioned yet but kind of like the one's you're playing? Metal Gear Phantom Pain. Also, people mentioned Assassins Creed? Black Flag is the best. Bioshock infinite is more of a shooter but excellent story and great game, too. Not action adventure, its an RPG, but its...

    Westworld

    I'm pretty convinced Bernard is Arnold remade. For two reasons. 1.) The Meetings with Dolores are clearly in the room that now has the big machine, indicating it might be another time period. 2.) "Bernard" in these meetings tells Dolores about the Maze--this one has bugged the shit out of me...

    Westworld

    The AI pyramid picture too. Remember Bernad saw the top of the pyramid as empty, and Ford said "because know one knows the missing piece". When someone floated the Bernard is a robot theory on Reddit in that episode they said the answer to consciousness was there, but Bernard simply wasn't...

    Westworld

    Well, I think Ford is a bot, not sure about Arnold making him. I think part of the core of the park is human singularity. I think that's what Davos is really interested in, some break through in AI that lets human consciousness be transferred. The whole Lazzerus comment in the first episode and...

    Westworld

    Right? At this point a robot is actively saying she's going to kill you. I get they fear for their jobs, but they know they are going up against a super powerful company and it will end up with them being fired anyway. At this point WHY the fuck wouldn't you call the security team and have her...

    Google politics or welcome to a Dystopia

    So given every poll was off by a greater degree than any point in modern times, to the point where most likely it was tampering and fabrication....and all the MSM built narratives off these clearly fake numbers. I guess they will go first? Or let me guess, the only News sites who have...

    Recent media issue I found, all the podcasts I listen to are liberal cucks, probably b/c

    Is the Democratic party still a relevant political party?

    Yeah, everyone thinks like this--then they grow up. As people get older and get more life experience, as they watch failure after failure from the government, and how the "Elite" who say they are your friends shit on you time and time again--the pessimism and skepticism begins to set in. The...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    If we can buy just 200 years we'll be good, with the energy technology. Energy is the big limiter on all human production, it all goes back to energy and how much it costs. We've been making enormous leaps in energy storage, production and efficiency in the last 40 years. A few hundred and it...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I don't know, but I do know Algae are pretty easy to farm, especially given they don't need fresh water--it's why, outside of their very high efficiency for photosynthesis, they are used for Biofuels. I've always wondered by the billionaires who talk about the environment non-stop and who have...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I think light truck weight I think under 3 tons? Pick ups, SUVs ect. Other trucks are SUV's or large 2 axle commercial. Yeah but they also break down CO2, and water to make carbohydrates, and oxygen as a waste, right? The carbohydrates should be able to be sequestered in mass, I think, but I...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Yep, it is, but the thing is, even if we swapped over to nuclear, and solar/wind for intermittent day time spikes? We'd still need a lot of oil; there are elements of transportation that won't be able to run on batteries within the foreseeable future. So even if we swapped over electrical...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Well, that's kind of how the oil got there in the first place, except it was plant mass/algae in marshes sinking down I believe. But we have ways we could yank it out of the atmosphere and sequester it; if we dedicated resources to it. Algae and Photosynthetic Bacteria can process CO2 at...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Yeah, lacking energy storage medium is probably the number 1 things that makes solar/wind less viable than others. The second you add molten salt or gravity storage; the price of a solar plant skyrockets well beyond anything else. (And they already have issues with large plants even without...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Yeah, but a pause button would be really helpful on its own. Its like livestock, it's bad, but partially not as bad because its part of a cycle that will draw the green house gases back out of the atmosphere and into the vegetation needed for the livestock. Regardless of us that cycle continues...

    What makes your skin crawl?

    The sound someone with long nails makes itching their skin, especially if its through some kind of tight clothing. Drives me nuts, like I'm waiting for their nails to fly off.
