Once the AI figures out that all of those Lois Griffin images its been pumping out to fill DeviantArt with for the past three years are really for sex we'll all be fucked. Literally, hooked up to milking machines and left out to dry. What will the computers then do, after having fulfilled their life's purpose?



NOTE: This is infinitely more likely to happen than Rocco's Basilisk, the single dumbest thought experiment I've heard of in my entire life.

AI isn't optimising Lois Griffin porn. They've got it doing dumb shit like climate change and equality. The likely thing thats going to happen is someone is going to have the bright idea to sic it on agriculture, its going to miss a variable from its simulation and we'll suffer from the Great Leap Forward II.

I would laugh and then cry. Satan would have taken God's second greatest warrior of the current age. But it would be pretty funny.

NASA is full of screwups. All their Nazi scientists are dead. They still buy rides on Russian rockets.

What sort of a useless gaggle of morons do you have to be for Elon Musk to be called in to unfuck your stubbornly unfuckable fuckery?

NASA would give strict orders not to talk to the public. On the same day NASA members would be arguing about it on social media. I wouldn't be surprised if Null banned one or two for arguing about their idiotic doomsday theories and shitting up the Kiwi boards.

Great Britain would likely sue for peace after the fall of France. Part of this arrangement would have involved a steady petrol supply for the German war machine. Operation Barbarossa would have gone off earlier and with more troops. Japan could evade the US blockade with British oil.

The question is then whether the Japanese go after the Americans anyway. If so the war ends the same way with the Axis lasting a few more months. Otherwise the Red Army eventually gets crushed and the Russians become slaves, which is what they were anyway under the Bolsheviks. Surviving Jews would quietly slip into China. The British Empire survives as a Nazi vassal state.

What if Stoner embraced his autism fully and the AR platform didn't win that one army trial way back? Would infantry weapons look much different now?

A "pole shift" isn't the world-ending event that "doomers" thought 2012 would be. All such is is the magnetic field changing orientation (N becomes S), and it's not a sudden thing either. I think what is more likely than it (or "Nibiru") is modern "society" collapsing from man-made means (which wouldn't be pleasant at all). Of course it could be like the "nothing ever happens" meme, and the future continues to get ever more dystopian -- but with no collapse -- until at least this world overheating because the sun is running out of fuel. But who knows, maybe by then the ecosystem will somehow compensate (that Gaia hypothesis thing), or they will find a way to refuel the sun indefinitely?

BTW there is a vid by "Fire of Learning" called "What If We Collapsed Like Rome", which predicted that such a man-made collapse would play out sort of like post-Rome Europe.

Are there active members of the clergy on this site? The thought came to me with the conclave and new Pope.
KF is the most diverse group of autists and niggers.
I like to think its possible theres some based priest running around giving "Islamic content" ratings to the poosts on the tranny thread.

What if you woke up 20 years ago with all the memories you have ? What would you try to change for yourself and others?

Oh, I know this one, it's one of my favorite "for want of a nail" scenarios, from a literally who event:
20 years from when you posted this would be just in time for me to avoid the República Cromañón fire. Maybe by alerting authorities (improbable), or maybe by just taking a trip all the way there, getting a gun locally and then shooting the front of the nightclub before it all started so that people leave.
The effects downstream from that would be that the mayor wouldn't be impeached. This would possibly mean that the next one wouldn't be Mauricio Macri, whose political career would not start then, and I think would be kind of dead on arrival, since Ibarra was a popular figure. Then after that, who knows. He possibly wouldn't go on to become president in 2016, maybethe new president wouldn't have been of the opposing party to the then-ruling peronists.
There's also the cultural effects, as it had a chilling effect across all music events. It also cemented the death of Argentine rock music, and the loss of popularity of the genre across all Latin America.
Of course, if that were to happen I'd like to bring documentation of the alternate fact, just so I could avoid the consequences of stopping an event by violence.
So yeah, 200 people alive, eternal socialists in power in Argentina collapsing its economy, and a corrupt politician free. What a catch-22. Would you save those people, if it meant Ibarra never sees the consequences for his actions (which he didn't see, either, but at least he never won an election after that)?
Or maybe just buy with cents/mine bitcoin back when you could do it with just a CPU. But from what I remember, that happened in 2008.
 
What if a camelid species not dissimilar to old world camels survived extinction in the new world, and right as the US began to expand westward right before the civil war, they came in contact with the sioux equivalent of genghis khan at the peak of his power, having united all the tribes of the great plains through terror and subjugation, having amassed a gigantic army of camelid-riders.
 
I want to put a bird-feeder outside of the same window I keep a cat-tree for my kitties. On the one hand, it would be nice to the birds to eat, and my kitties to have something fun to watch. But would I just be tormenting two animals at once? (Birds wouldn't eat around cats, and cats would be looking at prey they can't get) any kiwis with experience with this?

I have no strong opinions on the rest of your comment but these are both comical. When the sun goes into it's red giant phase the earth is going to be completely engulfed by the sun so mother Gaia isn't going to be able to compensate.

Similarly refueling the sun would require adding enough hydrogen for it to burn from somewhere. A quick search says the sun burns ~3.6 billion tons of hydrogen per day. If we were able to move that kind of mass then clearly we've discovered FTL or something and concerns we think about today no longer apply.

I've also seen some things saying earth is going to lose it's water in ~1b years or so (sun going red giant is like 4-5b years) both issues are essentially moot. Elon needs to pick up the pace basically.

That's a good one.

At it's peak, SA was:
-The biggest torrent tracker
-The biggest homegroan porn site
-The biggest forum generally
-The birthplace of the "meme"
-The birthplace of photoshop as an art

As it declined it spun of Tumblr, Digg, Reddit and 4chan.

The chud right vs the woke left began on SA.
