Reply to comment by bigbeautifulsquare in This concept needs a name if it doesn't have one! AGI either leads to utopia or kills us all. by flexaplext

Well let me introduce you to a little book called. "The Bible". I'm by no means Christian but I get it. Advanced civilizations would have used us as Guinea pigs. Call them oh, idk CEOs. Of their Conpanies, R&D department. And they said, let's see what you would need, in order to live forever and be happy, or die and never want to come back ever again.

What side of the ♾️ spectrum of possibilities that exist in any given universe have you aligned yourself with?

And.

Would you be ok, living in a world that fully embraces those values?

Do you claim to worship a Judeo Christian God?

Who talks to him for you? Who are your representatives? Who's names have you invoked? Who did you call? Did you report straight to Jesus? Or did you have to take it all through several different chains of command? You tell a preacher who said he'd tell God about it later, ask for your forgiveness? How much do you trust him? How well do you know him?

If you fucked up, and he knows about it? How much do you know about this person to say. I trust him with my darkest secrets? Because when we stand in front of God. Put our hand on his holiest chosen symbol, book, whatever the case may be. And swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, so help me, the entity that saw it all. I swore an oath, I said that I knew that you were still watching it all. I swore I knew your commandments, I swore I know your code.

Do you trust the man who you told tour secrets to vouch for you? What if God genuinely gave us our privacy? So that we would not feel shame? What if you had a problem then? Who would you turn to? Just go down the rabbit hole I think it already happend.

So what I guess I'm saying. Is would you be proud to stand in front of the crowd and be judged by a court of your peers? Or are you too embarrassed? Where can you go to feel accepted? Do you personally feel that that is a possibility?

Ore are your sins so great, that you would rather sink than swim, fight or fly, whatever the case may be.

Reply to Spotted in my neighborhood. Be kind to yourself! [image] by ChampagneCity

One of the first things I tell people who are depressed is to stop talking bad about yourself. A lot of people do it as a joke or not too serious, I don't care, stop it! You're not an idiot for making a small mistake. You're not dumb because you forgot your keys. You're smart, you're talented, and you should treat yourself like you deserve.

Reply to RI voted worst roads in the nation by Ektaliptka

It's not a vote, it's data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics sorted into a table so the company doing the ranking can flog insurance. Although, it looks like they've used two different years for the roads and bridges, as the number for the roads is the most recent available, 2020, but the number for the bridges seems to be from 2021, even though 2020 would be the proper comparison and 2022 is the most recent year.
