Yea, Kenneth Copeland is the closest to a demon walking this earth I can think of. and that is including the dictators and mass murderers… Dude’s the perfect example of the subterfuge and corruption a demon as described in literature would bring to Christianity. An absolute corrupting force wearing the guise of good intentions.
That’s an insane exaggeration of consequences, but that game is still uniquely boring.
Anything above 0 is already entering unethical territory, so…
Slowly? Those things would ‘die’ in under 24 hours!
Not really. It’s not nearly enough cells to have any kind of consciousness as we know it. A few neurons learning to play a game is a far cry from tying a being into a simulation of hell.
In fairness to him, most politicians are both stupid and paid to make bad decisions, so he’s sadly probably still right…
Nope. I grew up a Christian. I know exactly how those ‘nice’ Christians think.
They might be nice to people they like and understand, but their ignorance is profound and troubling to anyone with an actusl broad understanding of the world.
Your experience is rare and you should cherish it, then.
Every Christian and most any Islam sect is also guilty of building a highly judgmental and insanely insular “community”, too.
It begs the question why the key carts even exist.
lol they aren’t going to pay you for your service either, turncoat.
This isn’t an ID push (yet). Seems more like a vapid announcement to appease the corpos paying them for ads.
I mean, “falling into” is a funny thing to say considering how the company was doing in the 30’s and 40’s…
They aren’t lowering cart prices, so see the rest of my post as to why they’ll still be paying for their decisions.
They’re damned if they do because it’s too little too late and most of their carts are just a keyed license to the game and not the game itself anyways, which kinda’ begs the question why they’ll remain higher priced. They’re damned if they don’t because people don’t have as much disposable income as they used to and Nintendo is wonderful at not enticing anyone with new IPs these days anyways.
They’ve hoarded their wealth too long, and now they get to pay the price, one way or the other.
Not ‘just’ throw away. They provide a very nice convenience of bundling a bunch of trash together and make it all easier to transport to the bin.
That’s a bit silly. Many animals have far better vision than humans, such as birds of prey. Even many mammals have far better night vision. I’m positive even dogs and cats without eyesight problems can see stars.
Whether they fully comprehend what they’re looking at is a different question, as if humans are any good at truly comprehending the scale of space, either…
Why would you trade them in to GS? If they’re sealed you could probably even get better prices just selling it to your friends or even ebay…
Then allow me to refine my point to specify organized religion’s teachings. Sure, many develop a community, but they develop a community that specifically judges and ostracizes anyone not conforming to their extremely narrow belief system.
Most of organized religions leverage those negative aspects to further control their ‘flock’. There are many aspects that are outright horrible for individuals, not the least of which is believing things for the simple fact that an authority said so.
I’m not against people building community. I am very against people building insular, hierarchical, tyrranical systems that brainwash people into foolish or down right horrible behavior.
It is definitely their entire world, but the point is it takes far more than a few cells to create actual human-relatable sentience.
That’s coming from someone who fully understands and knows that many more animals than most humans care to admit also have sentience.
Those petri dishes are not sentient nor conscious.
