Bro. You can’t sign a petition on change.org.

Just move on with your life.

Here comes a whooping million dollar fine in five years

What the hell are you talking about about? Who is out there “scoffing” at those who save?

Sometimes I wonder how awesome the Internet would be if people didn’t constantly spout some made up bullshit as fact.

I would guess not. Any authentication scheme would just be another risk point to not be able to talk to the thing from earth.

But I’m just guessing.

I would doubt they would have encrypted anything on the probe back in 1977 when it launched.

Humankind could have been living in blissful peace for centuries.

Nah. This is a unique moment in history - access to objective truth has never been so widespread. In theory, it’s a lot easier to lead people to war if you can convince them that their neighbors’ customs and culture are causing your crops to fail or some shit.

But it turns out that people simply prefer to reject objective truth. So they’ll blame gays for hurricanes and tell people that homelessness is punishment for sin.

Everything is definitely shittier now.

100 years ago there were more things that just happened to us that we couldn’t do anything about. It’s hard to eradicate a virus when you don’t even know what a virus is.

Nowadays we are plagued with completely solvable problems. We could eliminate measles, but dumbasses are afraid of vaccines. We could feed everyone, but we got billionaires to maintain. We could stop destroying the earth, but then who will burn all this oil? We could cooperate on a global scale, but then we might have to talk to brown people, ew. We could stop bombing each other, but then how would we prove to our gods that we’re good people?

So yeah “things” are shittier, because nowadays we have the ability to live in a nearly post-scarcity society but we just don’t wanna.

Tesla single handedly showed an alternative to oil-based vehicles with an absolutely superior machine.

Keep drinking the koolaide, though!

lol

I remember that fucking bronco car chase interrupted my cartoons and I was like, “get this car off the screen, I want to watch Batman the animated series.”

Go for it, I believe in you

All right smart guy, explain to me how else I’d know if I’m out of ketchup if I can’t use an app to access the remote camera in my fridge? Can’t do it can ya? Yeah that’s what I thought

I thought it was boring as fuck.

Uh, why?

The concept of surge pricing for something that was supposed to be a side job for drivers makes sense. During a blizzard, if driving Uber is my side hustle, there’s no way I’m getting in the car to pick up some schmuck after he drank too much at Applebee’s. But if I can charge more for that ride, I will start to consider it.

But then the “gig” job became people’s full time job and everything, as it must, went to shit.

But for Wendy’s? The meat is there. The employee is there. Everything is already there, ready and waiting to make burgers. So surge pricing isn’t correcting a supply/demand imbalance - it’s just on-demand price gouging.

Does anyone know at what point run-on sentences became synonymous with comedy?

“why do so many people believe in conspiracies”

“Well, to understand that, you have let me tell you about how The System is designed to replace education with propaganda.”

Rocksteady took the game entirely offline to fix a devastating bug that would lead to new players receiving 100% completion of the entire game without having done anything.

This will somehow result in increased bag fees.

“unfortunately”?
