I don't think it'd help. Even if their anatomy is the DNA-shooting variety (aka male) they're still the same DNA. They have no genetic diversity, they can't adapt, still extreme inbreeding. It's better than extinction, but it's a stalling technique.
I thought it was stranger s/he's making a 400mile road trip across states on an every-week basis. Willfully. Whatever the scenario, it's hardly one I'd inflict on myself.
Using it as a vague yet fact-consistent length of measurement rather than something you're able to pedant.
You're right, it was dull, predictable, expected, common concepts you see frequently when everyone knows that humor is built on juxtaposition, shock, novelty, by prompting a unexpected and foreign conception in the mind, ideally disruptive.
Or maybe this is all just my opinion and I shouldn't state this stuff like it's fact, right?
They must have a machine on the front line. As ghastly as the idea of an army of proles in the trenches may be for first contact, the real reason they'll (probably) be shielded is that automation is cheaper. They'll put a message up front meant to hopefully process generic scenarios fully or partially.
The work is dead. The automation is the work. Long live the work.
They'll start with the low hanging fruit. Driving industry is looking juicy.

I figure mine will last me a couple decades. Enough. I'll make it.

Here's Billy Brown. He's heard that everyone needs to be in the top 10% of the educated (does ANYONE see the bad math?) and needs to find a way to pay for hyperinflated education costs for his niche, specialized, exclusive skill that's still human "work". He's heard he desperately needs to avoid the predatory loan system, or he's just as fucked. Fortunately, Billy here is a healthy 18yo male. He's an earnest, eager, able-bodied, smart, young fellow.
He's also in the year 2150. What in God's name do you do with a healthy 18yo to pay for a million dollar education? Dig ditches? Oh wait, we've had robot shovels for centuries. We have robot everything, bitch. Go suck dicks, Billy. Fortunately one of the 0.0000001%'ers who's a family member of one of the last three merged ultracorporations lives about 150 miles east of here. Unfortunately the end of the cocksucking applicant line is about 155 miles east.
Music? 160.
Art? 170. It takes like five minutes for one of you to give me a blowjob, while I only need like, two or three poets a day. Half the time I can't hear you from in the shower, but I pay you the hour anyway.
I'm just that generous. Trying to show 2150 how to be thoughtful, y'know?
I want to like pencil and paper d20, but whenever I see more than 30 seconds of it I just sit and think of things that could be automated.
I tried to read some of Lovecraft's writings but found it more dutiful than recreational.
I think steampunk is silly sometimes. I think furries are silly most times. I think dubstep is silly all times.
I wonder if it's best that the anime fandom stays stereotyped and ostracized, by the tireless efforts of the narutogaia tier. I don't want to see SAO on burger king cups. I don't want to see half-assed cash grabs. I don't want to see normals diluting the demographic and thus market efforts. Their demographic can have all the Kardashians they want, just keep them quarantined on your side of the internet. I'll try to keep Bebop on mine. Hidden from Corporate more than you.
>Or we've seen new characters created with a trait like their gender, race, or sexual preference as their main defining characteristic, solely so focus can be put on it
Solely so you make an hour of headlines with "X IS NOW Y".

Then, surprise surprise, the moment of fame recedes to the same level of notoriety the series, character, artist, writer, etc. had previously.
It's hardly just Apple. The way "we" (more accurate word: "they") have built the imaginary property system insanely incentivizes the idea of blasting territory-claim flags as fast as you can shotgun them.
It's basically the grown-up version of calling dibs. And it's pay-to-play.
K12s often liked the increased homogeneity (even when the same model isn't the same model), they tend to be more resilient, Apple used to be quite education-friendly ages ago, sheer incumbent govt inertia, etc
Less of their gear in mid/hi schools, where instead of Math With Animals you need software for beginner's coding robots CAD autoshop animation etcetera.
And much less true after 2014, when chromebooks starting getting hype. Lots of curriculum is now a cloud website, not software, and it's been a gold rush towards CBs with half the price tag of ipads (neither has great repairability) and superior MDM. The ipad is a consumer device, enterprise/education is an afterthought at best.
We had to keep reminding schools/principals that CBs are perfect for all the youtube/website/officedocs usage, but they don't replace a full-feature computer.
You call it "sad", I call it the next twitch fad of the month. Hey, let's not integrate it, have it output to a physical robot that presses keys. It's painfully circuitous, yet that's the sort of circus act and personality that attracts eyeballs. Dress it up like Johnny Five or some shit.
Wait, no, let's do integrate it, and write up a box for it, so you can sell the program to players!
Now you have something to call sad: People who use a bot to win their games. It's not really "theirs" anymore, is it now?
Anyway, time to ask if they'll loan me their deeplearning so I can attract buyers to my "perfect-playing, google-AI Hearthstone trainer".
Oh boy a point metrics ranking list highscore chart golf game.
Security bug 1) Erroneous password entry reveals critical details in the rejection prompt, like the confirmed existence of an account name.
Security bug 2) Throwing in a parentheses and semicolon allows mass queries and a full DB dump of cleartext passwords.
Specifics vary, but some games have interesting latency tolerances that they're willing to resolve without a Nope shrug (rejection). Mounted WoW players often glide past "no fly zone" triggers, sometimes remaining airborne long enough to reach the unreachable. Usually inconsequential places, by design.
PoGo players (and Ingress, I'd guess) have been known to capture indoor critters by dashing at building walls in the meatspace, then huddling over their phone to block signal. The game extrapolates position, and they can trigger a now-in-range critter engagement client-side. They resume the signal, and the server resolves it accepted.
These are amusing examples, but if I was big on FPSs or fighters I'd probably be more bitchy and whining about gritty specifics. I know I didn't enjoy having to run in front of people to cast Backstab in WoW.
OT: I've heard that, on the whole, these by-hand NTP solutions actually end up working out pretty good all around. I'm too ignorant to have my own opinion.
Death By Construction Accident or Poorly-Maintained Machinery "Explodes" In Coal Mine doesn't get people drooling over the media. Or people demanding equal industry metrics, but that's not the cheap shot I came to make:
Journalists only want eyeballs; specifically, the end financial effect of eyeballs. Informing you isn't even a tertiary domino.
I'm sorry to hear wikipedia has never been useful to you.
So much so, so amazingly and overwhelmingly so, that it somehow dragged the collective's experience down to an average value that still fits the qualifier "failed".

"Justice is whatever the judge ate for lunch." goes double for causality.
Truth is we won't hesitate to drag in the "gun manufacturer" of a scenario, if our betters feel like it.

Your taste a shit.
Now let's do it again but with sports. I'll pretend to like one, for the sake of educating.
Breakthroughs aren't "real", they're anomalies in a reality of incremental scientific advancement.
Can't get clicks and eyeballs with that, so the headlines pretend EXCITING SHIT GOING DOWN YO.
Your subconscious probably figured it all out already and said don't bother, it's a wise cynic that knows how money works.
I would concede that as dumb-but-true more a year ago than today. Being an old loyalist in a crisis of faith seems downright fashionable lately.

I do kind of expect them to "turn up" somehow, honestly. Whether incompetence or malice (ie intentional) is another story.

This is about as insightful as Sturgeon's Law, aka observation of the definitions of words.
Then again, it's a Thing because we admittedly don't always realize it.
This is one of those times I hear "We can't X problem Y because problem Z."
People usually rebut this with the (perhaps overly concise) "Then you have two problems."
Hammer X ought go ahead as planned, and a second hammer be found for Z.
Oh boy a point metrics ranking list highscore chart golf game.

One point each, equally vulnerable.
