Microsoft: You can do that thing easily, just make sure that you have done this in your environment.
To do that, you need to do this first.

Crying yet? No? You need to this first, before you do the other stuff.

@GreenFire As I imagine thoughts from the dwindling base and co-conspirators: “Oh Trump called Smith deranged. Maybe we need to storm the Dept of Justice for Master!”
Those invested in Trump for a quick profit, and little regard for the Republic are forced to reevaluate their investment. 🤔
I've decided I don't want to go on a Titanic Sight Seeing sub. If condolences are in order I'll offer them. :( Listened to a sub expert who said "the sub is an experimental vehicle, not even made out of steel, but fiberglass. I'd never go on it." The report on NPR said that you walk into this adventure with eyes wide open, taking your life in your hands, death is mentioned 3 times on the first page of the disclaimer, in a list of ways you can die.

@Huntn00 I think that is exactly what Gould was addressing. I see the parallels between the blatantly self-serving folks in the past and the blatantly self-serving folks today… which is one of the reasons I reread Gould regularly and post about it when I do. I’ve actually seen some pretty smart people believing self-serving fantasies (my cardiologist who talked about trickle-down economics being a prime example).

@GW@newsie.social I am very skeptical of the ability of humans operating under capitalism to do right by their fellow human beings. There are the fat cats who had a great idea, but then there are the sheep who in their way volunteer to be sheered. AI will only aggravate the inequities, arguably pushing human civilization to the brink. I predict a breakdown under Capitolism at some point. What emerges is unknown at this point if some of us manage to survive it. 🤔
@AlliFlowers God is a keen business deity, look at all the Tell it To God Through Me franchises he has sold. 😇
What Gould Wrote About Intelligence

@garyackerman Sorry for the negativity in advance. I wonder what Gould would say about the propensity of some modern humans to put much of their efforts into undermining their fellow human beings to benefit themselves? Rhetorical: Is this one of the prices of having such intelligence the temptations become too much or is this just how human beings ended up? Then we have some not so smart people who will believe whatever fantasy they are fed as long as self benefit is perceived? 🤔
@Sheril @GreenFire Yep. Science, facts and data are not about popularity.
