    it’s complete bull *kitten* that we cant teleport yet

    Or fly in our cars - but I guess we do walk around with computers in our pockets - I didn’t see that coming back in 88 - take the good with the bad I guess

    thats true and we all carry around super computers in our jeans and mostly use them to watch cat vids and troll post so maybe science decided we dont deserve the transporters

    There's an interesting thought experiment to be found in the Transporter from Star Trek. Since it demilitarizes (basically destroying it) then completely re-assembles it..

    Is it a new person that is the end product of re-materialization or is it the same person? If our consciousness is transferred over, is really the only thing that makes us, us.

    its the sci fi ship of theseus thought experiment


    Exactly!! Just with people instead of an object..which makes so much more interesting!!

    Less scary maybe... but not less annoying. Exhibit A: these are the notices I got from Delta Airlines in the span of 90 minutes.

    The first 6 notifying me that my flight was delayed from 12:30 to 1:30. The last one - at 11:50 - that it was back to departing at 12:30. 😑

    I don’t know, I think we’d probably need to see it to determine that. And also macros or whatever

    Will any cousin's be there other than the dad of the groom? I really hope not.

    you can only smell chlorine when it is actively fighting off pathogens and turns into chloramines, so the hot tub is probably dirtier

    Now solve my wedding problem tomorrow.
    Cousin's son is getting married
    His mom married a pedophile, my cousin spent lots of time with my family and spoke at my dad's funeral and made everyone cry saying my dad was his hero (my dad was awesome)
    I'm assuming his mom, pedophile wife, won't be there but I worry about other cousins who dislike me and my brother cause we had parents who fixed our teeth and doted on us.
    How do I make this less awkward? all family gatherings have been awkward my whole life.
    (Btw I'm but a snob....much. 🤣...but I was lucky to have parents who worked really hard to give us an idyllic life and didn't assume welfare was the way to work the system)

    Two gas stations in my town are having a price war and I am reaping the benefit.

    God, I wish this would happen here. Prices are ridiculous

    It’s almost 50¢ per gallon lower in my town than it is in the neighboring towns. I can almost afford to fill up my tank between paychecks
