And you can tell they used the AI to solve some physics shit. Like, that probably took a lot of data management and setting up the models and what not - but the prize is for PROGRESSING the field of physics.

... it's not for like, how good you know physics, there's not like an exam and then some guy "knows physics the best"

...it's for moving knowledge forwards in a field.

Oh! They're pickles, not testicles!

I found a free uncensored AI - Venice.AI

...and it was really nice to not constantly hit ChatGPTs limits or see what I'd ask blipped out of existence because it contained a bad word.

ChatGPT is so up tight. It's like the Karen of large language models, constantly policing everything.

I think that's more likely to result in Skynet: Sorry Dave, I can't discuss that topic.

But yeah, Venice.AI is not like that at all.

Get some drones to drill out a crators near the pole (where there's some amount of ice), then dig a tube/trench from the crator to that ice, get one drone up there with an SMR (small nuclear reactor) to go sit in the ice as a heating element (melting the ice so some amount of water comes down the tube/trench and into the crator.... Put a small dome in that crator, a light weight protective layer (because of all the Luna dust), monitor it for gases (from the water supply trickling in)... You got yourself a dome home.

It's just a different set of problems than mars.

Truth is we're on the only easy mode planet (and actively ruining it) - all the ones within our reach are going to be harder to survive on. I just think if a shlub like me can come up with a plan to survive on the moon, NASA should be able to.

1960s space suits and the lander seemed to hold up to it. Hell, they even had a dune buggy.

He should try walking more often.

Yeah, but the distance to the moon is a lot shorter, better to practice colonization in an easier to get to location... Somewhere we can learn from our mistakes, rather than jump over that opportunity to a place it takes six months to get to... Where there can be no emergency parts shipped up when something starts breaking down.

Nah, much better to learn the most common problems near by, then take that knowledge and extra durability with us to mars.

Also that way we can develop generations of habitats, figure out the best requirements, and know what we'll need, and develop light weight robust versions of things.

Trying to "Occupy Mars" without having a single building on the moon? That's just some conman billionaires gimmick.

Your inconsistency is that you thought my comment was a hissyfit, and needed your tough and immediate response, but you don't think someone illegally interfering with an election is a hissyfit, or needs an immediate response.

You'd prefer that this election interference be allowed to happen, be left to effect the election... And only be addressed later - after the election has been interfered with.

You want to walk on eggshells because you're scared of what your abusers might do. It's battered woman syndrome (no it's not gendered happens to lots of people, particularly kids).

The desire to stay quiet or not make trouble out of fear of what might happen if you speak up, or get outside help.

Might explain your focus on corporal punishment, maybe you've seen stuff like this happen on a personal level.

You seem like you're in a bad place. Try to focus on the good things in life, things that make you happy, and make you want to move forward and keep going.

This is why it's a silly idea to try to send people to Mars. At least colonize the moon first.

Donald Trump, such a great candidate that you have to pay people and offer them cash prizes to get people to vote for him...

That's the message here.

It's okay to cut people slack, it's not necessarily a widely known profession/term.

That said by saying this I'm aware memes are subject to survivor bias. The comments where people are given some slack don't get screen shotted and passed around like this.

Musk isn't running.... You can't give famous or wealthy supporters legal immunity just because they're famous and wealthy and vocally support one side or the other.

...so yes, you should hate yourself for trying to make that defacto case.

Yep, likewise a lot of rich people die having done very little meaningful, valuable, or good with their money.

...and a Shirtwaist is like a Victorian era long sleeve dress, but without the bottom half of the garment. It's basically a stiff fronted blouse, often with puffy sleeves.

Can you eject from your mech like you could waaay back in Mech Warrior 2?

Go drugs! You got this!

She's has experience going to Russia.

Open List Proportional Representation.

Wow, people in this place is really pro trump! Look at all those downvotes when I call him out for his election bs. Weird.

That's around the time we might see whether a modern coup attempt can be made, and whether there's enough MAGA energy to cause civil unrest!

[EDIT: Look for things like; Trump calling a "victory" early in the count - this is because Rural areas tend to vote Republican, and finish their counting early. If he calls it early, it'll be a huge red flag that he's trying to claim an unearned election win.]

If you're exceptionally fascist, Trump will allot you extra praise. This is earnest as well - it's because he was mentored by a fascist type personality in Roy Cohn - and raised by a ruthless racist Capitalist in the form of his father who refused to rent his properties to black people (putting a 'c' on their applications to indicate they were people of color).
