Hard to say. It depends on what kind of programs/robots we were. It might be that certain percentage of us are our creaters, it might be that we got rid of our creators, it might be that there’s only one creator…

Too many possibilities.

1. Are you AI/bot?
2. Wall of text = incomprehensible, would not read/5.
3. It’s rarely about how good the devices are, but how much they cost + Apple’s two-faced moral model that makes people oppose/reject it.

The entire showerthought must be in the title

Your question belongs more to Ask Lemmy or No Stupid Questions I think.

In addition: what appeared earlier on this planet? Kids or cartoons?

There are no relevant studies concerning the topic. What might seem like a widespread trend, might as well be merely a local peculiarity.

Thank you, goodnight.

Oh, I wouldn’t ever suggest that the method does everything its author says it does - the claims of helping in cancer cases and such are wee bit too “optimistic”.

But the question was concerning the possibility to build up cold immunity. And the answer is “yes”. The method I mentioned absolutely will build up cold’s immunity (or resistance, or tolerance if language purism is a factor) in everyone who will attempt it.

There’s no magic hocus-pocus in it. It’s very simple concept used in many “methods” - Buteyko comes to mind, so does Russian Siberia.

Do you think it is overpriced?

Given its capabilities and the fact that you can buy used MS notebook/360 device for such a price? Of course.

Yes.

optional keyboard cover for an extra $101.

Ah, I understand. It’s an attempt to replicate Steve “unwashed” Jobs’ strategy, where buying overpriced stuff makes you BETTER, DIFFERENT and UNIQUE. Am I right?

Truth is dramatic.

Threat to Public Safety

Dude, you forgot which of two worlds is the real one. Hint: it’s not the Internet.

And that’s how I know that voting should be a privilege, not a right.

I have no idea whom I’m talking to in the 'Net.

Neither have you. Nor anybody else…

Can you give me an example?

Of course, but bear in mind it’s going to be a crude, primitive example.

Imagine me talking to - unknown fact to me - a pedophile over the Internet. For reasons unknown I made him angry. Angry enough to stalk me, invade the privacy of my home and steal my child, just to make me suffer because he felt I did him wrong.

My anonymity protects me against such an occurrence.

Advertisement. Malware. Scams. Abuse of trust. Current and future exploits that I have no knowledge, or understanding of.

No. I don’t enjoy being anonymous, but the problem lies in bodies, organizations, and people abusing the non-anonymity.

It’s like

• so you enjoy wearing a space-suit
• not really, I’d rather run around butt-naked, but given that the environment is so deadly, I’d die if I were to strip off of my space-suit

Do you understand the difference?

Because we do not enjoy the invasion on our privacy.

Weren’t they right? I mean, the people wildly gesturing at everything around?

And they were right.
