Brave Little Hitachi Wand

Only a ~2% chance 4 years from now. And it’s an order of magnitude smaller than the one that hit Chicxulub. Yawn

You can’t change the machines, but try not to let them change you.

While I love that scenario, I think the likelier outcome in this case is that a lot of taxpayer money goes straight towards energising brownshirts.

I too felt the compulsion

Reject tech, return to mechanical Turk

I heard a positive remark on Lemmy about https://www.languagetransfer.org/ recently and have been meaning to have a look

Remember when they used to at least pretend to let us pick?

Connect with local resistance

I dunno Keybase?

Hard to even read that without needing to joke and/or bitch

All good points can I join

Why you need so many homies though

Spot is small though, scaling up to rideable size won’t be cheap.

One site gave an estimate of £3k/yr in annual upkeep to keep one in basic grass livery. A horse costs about £3-4k as well. A lifetime of, let’s say 25 years? That’s a total lifetime spend of £78k.

Let’s also remember that we’re talking this seriously about an AI generated video of a concept vehicle. No robot horse exists and none will in the near future.

But, it’s boring to just say “thing no happen”, so in the interest of conversation, what do you speculate the robot horse would cost, if they eventually managed to make a production model? Do you think it’d last as long as a real horse?

It eats grass and uh

I think it craps there too

All of this faff, expense, and heartache and you’d still have something less effective, less green, less yours, and more expensive than an actual horse.

Not thrilled about that book excerpt.
