Robots are people too.
big hugs
Life can be hard. Letās robot together.
aha fucking brilliant. maybe they baked him into a cake
I have a problem
- Itās coming into Winter at home
- But Iām currently in tropical Bali
Thats not the problem
-
Itās now about 31ā°C with 90% humidity (for the Americans amonsgt you, itās Hot and sticky like Florida)
-
But I step out of my door and into a swimming pool
Thats not the problem
-
Iām surronded by beaches, but they are about 3kms away (approx 27 grid iron fields away)
-
I have a moped to get around
Thats not the problem
-
Traffic is madness, cars and mopeds everywhere following a very loose set of road ārulesā
-
This is not my first rodeo, I have been to Southeast Asia A LOT, its managed chaos AND they also drive on the left like Iām used to.
Thats not the problem
- I have keys for my room and moped
How the fuck do I read and write them to an implant?
Iām moving locations in a couple of days, so hopefully I get an RFID lock at the next accommodation.
I see no problems and only pleasant conveniences
Clearly, he is bummed out by the prospect of missing out on all the lovely snow
Sir, your words offend me
A key is NOT a convenienceā¦
You clearly dont understand, I HAVE TO CARRY A KEYā¦Like a Neanderthal !!!
Hahahahahahahaā¦
Nope, Its very temperate and it has never snowed where I live.
Its actualy still around 18ā°C (around the lowest of an AC in your car) cool but not uncomfortableā¦
Currently here if anybody was wondering
And on that note, its time to feed the Neanderthal
Love it
How do you find Bali?
I have never been. All I hear is stories about drunken fuckwit Australians and donāt want to associate with them, especially given m strong accent.
Also I hate the heatā¦
But that all looks pretty good and obviously it would be much cooler in Winter.
it was easy, It was right infront of me when I hopped off a plane.
It really depends in what you want from a holiday.
It caters to most things and most budgets.
You can go the adventure route, or the relaxing route or anything in between.
Equally NZ, UK and others.
They are generally in predictable areas and are all easy enough to avoid
Not really.
Its so close to the equator, the temperature doesnt vary too much.
What does change is the humidity and rainfall.
In theory Bali should be at the end of the rainy season about now.
I happen to hate Colombians, hate their culture, and donāt want to associate with them⦠Now guess where my mother went into labor.
Now that I left that country, I wish that I could change my accent. Provided, I still donāt know if I want to stay where I currently am. Iād like to have more distance from my family and an individualistic culture. And maybe a place that doesnāt speak spanish for a change.
Hopefully, Iām not the only one who hates the place and culture where theyāre from.
Throughout my childhood, the more I learned about the US the more I thought this country was filled with egotistical, ethnocentric nationalists.
The more I learn about other places, I see that every place has their flaws, but I am probably not alone in saying that right now it feels pretty embarrassing to be āan Americanā.
Youāre right about āindividualistic cultureā. I have always longed for a place where we can see and act globally. The Borg look more and more appealing.
I think that I wasnāt clear about individualism. Latin America is as collectivist as it gets⦠And itās annoying.
So everyone in your friend group got a Blink 182 tattoo? Youāre going to get pressured into getting one even if you donāt want it or you get ostracized. Your friends like dressing formally? Donāt you dare wear a t shirt. Your friends like t shirts? Donāt you dare wear a suit. Everyone is saying homophobic nonsense? You better do the same, regardless of what you think⦠In-group vs out-group dynamics suckā¦
Thatās Colombia⦠And to a slightly lesser extent, thatās Latin Americaā¦
Ironically, thereās still a weird petty competitiveness in these cultures. So youāre expected to conform to a lot of rules that serve no purpose other than to signal a willingness to conform, and then youāre expected to use the little freedom that you have left to one-up everyone else, but not too much as it makes others uncomfortable.
Iād rather be an individual, and be surrounded by people who are also individuals, but have a willingness to cooperate while respecting individual differences. But I donāt know if such a place exists.
Same goes for being āa Colombianā TBHā¦
Get well soon!
Ever read the Troy Rising series?
Thatās basically one of the major plot lines of book three.
Also A damn good read.
I was expecting this and would have been disappointed if you didnāt.
I fear such places are shrinking as the masses sit in front of recommend feeds all day and get sorted into clusters.
So Iām eating candy that my kids received on Easter that my wife rejected because it has dyes in it. And Iām wondering.
Those of you that donāt use freedom units.
What the hell are these called in your country.
Or do you just not have them because youāre not far gluttonous turds like us?
