I don't think it's a scam or a conspiracy. It's human nature to worry and when given a reasonably sounding, but scary, idea we tend to spread it to others.

Even if that was true, do you think it would be hard to hook it up to a Boston Dynamics robot and potentially add a few sensors? I reckon that could be done in an afternoon (by humans), or a few seconds (by the AGI). I feel like I'm mi

I'd argue they are the closest to AGI (how far off that is no one knows). That would make them a strong contender for the most important company in the world in my book.

May I ask which headsets you've tried? I was stunned by the visual clarity of even a Pico 4, and I expect the vision pro to be far clearer.

Isn’t impassable dams/hydro stations a huge issue for them?

No, not that I recall. I've only heard about it being discussed in an objective manner. Who is maintaining this "status quo" according to you? The media? The monarchs?

History and tradition plays a major role in those opinions. No one is saying it is fair, but most are willing to overlook it. Why do you, so confidently, state that the reason is the school system/indoctrination? I've gone to scho

There’s always something that sets us apart, isn’t there? Something that makes “us” better than “them”. Or so we tell ourselves as we continue to rape the planet and kill our cohabitants. The mind can be quite resourceful when faced with co

Yeah, I apologize. I see this "fact" being brought up all the time and it frustrates me because it seems so disingenuous.

No. Bored engineers pick it because it’s more fun to build complex systems being able to handle a wider array of scenarios.

I think his point might have been to show what's currently possible in an off-grid setting. The reasons for wanting to live off-grid will vary from person to person - some might appreciate the disconnect from the modern world, others m

I don't know what the nazis thought (or think) about Atlantis, but who cares? If it ever existed, and Graham is 100% correct, how is that fact not infinitely more interesting than what race they were? I certainly don't think about

Something about Atlanteans being white (I don't recall this ever being a point of Graham, and I don't think Plato mentioned it either) and bringing civilization to brown folk (who later brought it to white folk), implying that bro

Some claim he's supporting racist conspiracy theories in their headlines. I'd say that's an attempt at canceling him. He's good at taking on the victim role though, I'll give you that.

People think he's a racist because they think he implies non-whites are stupid because they got their knowledge of civilization from survivors from Atlantis. They don't really touch upon the fact that literally all civilizations w
