The perfect dust

Another weird UHT enjoyer here. If it weren’t so expensive where I’m at then I’d be having it more often

:(

One month ago: ~$3.29

Yesterday ~$5.49

For 18 eggs: ~$7.19

They only have grade A eggs that come in the fancy compressed paper boxes so that’s what I normally get. Though eggs have been getting harder and harder to find since they’ve been struggling to restock them.

I know it’s not much compared to everyone else’s stuff here but it’s the easiest to post since I actually have picture of it.

Made some ginger chicken after experimenting with making the chicken tender and crunchy without deep frying. Turned out very good.

What does being a person mean to you? Could a sufficiently advanced AI become a person and if so, at what point would it become a person that deserves to be treated the same a human? If a machine can be a person, would it be plausible for a person to become a machine? For example, with transhumanism being possible, would a human that has ship of theseus’d with machine components instead of biological components become a machine instead of a person?

I was born in the current millenia so I wasn’t around during the aerospace boom but it makes me kinda sad that looking back, there was so much innovation and hope for a future. I remember talking with some older people in how they thought we’d be living on the moon or Mars by now after seeing the Apollo missions and seeing commercial supersonic flight. I still remember going to the library and checking out books about how technology was developed and reading in awe about the insane engineering behind each thing.

It’s just sad that all of the potential and movement was just shutdown by politicians and the rich just so they could get that extra little bit more wealth and power year after year.

Comrades fit better in this phrase but it makes you sound like a communist which is either a positive or negative depending on who you’re saying it to.

The ball rolls for a bit then stops

1. Colorless ball
2. Didn’t image a gender, just the concept of a person
3. They didn’t look like anything
4. I guess a perfect colorless sphere roughly the size of a tennis ball
5. Pretty much just a rectangular flat surface. There’s no color or material

I didn’t know much about it except the size of the ball being roughly proportional to the size of a human hand
