Can’t we just, you know, commandeer someone else’s bits?

Nah, too old

Those damn big-milkers!

There will be if they decide to invade our era tomorrow

The source of all human misery? Oh man, as if I didn’t feel the pressure enough already…

At the very least spaciesist.

Boss, I can’t make it to work today. There’s a cat on my car.

Well don’t leave us hanging! Did you die?

Woohoo! Bucket list complete!

But what if something happens to you and you don’t want your PC to check-in for you? Easy! That’s when you use a dead man’s switch tool to turn off your PC!

Could also be the fumes from the batteries burning and all that.

It’s a common misconception that it was even called Ev to begin with. In reality, it used to be named Mt. Eh due to how underwhelming it is.

“Constant average query time” is not that hard to understand. It means that sometimes access time is e.g. linear, and sometimes you get your content before executing the code. With a hash table large enough and full enough, this can be used to fetch content seconds, minutes, days, potentially years before the program even exists. That’s one hell of a breakthrough.

That’s how you get Skynet

See Overton Window [Wikipedia]. It’s something to keep in mind in the face of extreme discourse (like, say, a Nazi salute on live TV) before dismissing it as irrelevant.

Little guy living its 9 lives all at once

I take it you’re being sarcastic?

I for one am not that comfortable about it. Breeding and slaughtering rats to feed zoo animals, sure. I do enjoy burgers myself, so who am I to judge? Plus the zoo animals can’t all go vegan. But these are just bred and killed, probably living the shortest life possible, to serve as novelty decoration items. A plush would serve the purpose equally well, but of course the novelty aspect would not be there any longer.

Yeah not a big fan. I can understand taxidermy when done to a loved pet, or even to hunted game as a trophy. But the breeding-straight-to-taxidermy process sounds super wrong to me.
