Progressives also disappoint me. The public not being Social Democrats is my main issue.

These guys look like they wanna eat each other’s skin clean off. I ain’t trusting anything coming from them.

They could do a whole series set after DS9 about these types of questions. Maybe something that alludes to questions around Russia and China but still aims for peaceful outcomes?
… mixing in philosophy sci-fi questions?
… You know the sort of stuff Gene Roddenberry was doing from the beginning?
“Nibbles chew through my ball sack” -Skinner talking to the class hamster.
Stalin did apparently love cowboy movies, and made party members stay up every night drinking and watching them.
“ya see George, the modern PC left wouldn’t allow this kind of joke to be made anymore. Worlds would collide.”
It’s more likely remote controlled. There’s probably a guy with a controller near by. They’ve been around for a couple of decades now, but are generally only used where an angle is too steep or too close to a highway or cliff face.
Santa keeps a race of slave labourers hostage throughout the year, he ain’t caring about no finger.
FoxConn? Or that Bangladeshi factory that rioted? Where is Apple Vision made?
I can see developers working on Vision Pro apps and games if they’re more expensive on that particular platform.
So I think it will be like the iPhone app store compared to Google Play store, with iPhone having more paid apps, and Google having more free apps… Only in the VR space Meta is the competitor, and already has a wide selection of apps and games.
The vast majority of things the Apple vision pro does have already been done better on the Quest platform… Including porn.
But the Quest also has a wide selection of games… And is much cheaper.
All that stuff sounds very smashable for instagram likes. Of course, “it’s just a prank bro”.
I suspect that’s not a mission critical function for someone stuck on another planet with no internet.
Scan death star, beam photon torpedoes into reactor core.
The Borg’s first move is often to just beam drones over and start trying to assimilate people and technology.
I’d love to see the Jedi response to this. Who wins, borg personal modulating shields or lightsabers and force push?
…and what happens to the force when a Jedi is assimilated? Does the borg colective suddenly find out they had a lot of high midichlorian count drones in storage?
Probably because Putin just found out the population sucks at flying drones.
So the main task would be writing the custom OS, which with enough coders and a coherent plan could theoretically be done.
The hardware will just be a small form factor computer or gaming laptop in a box, with a controller attached.
It will be deconstructed day one, and what hardware they went with will be revealed.
Relative to much of the world yes.
In terms of economics and neoliberalism mostly.
You’re more right than wrong.
In terms of social liberalism, the differences between the two parties are more noticeable.
This is because structural politics is defined by undemocratic means, interests, and forces.
So we vote on more superficial aspects, such as the culture war and social rights.
Which can be important, but most of the time aren’t the real meat of the world’s problems.
