Perhaps this ties everything together. He’s trying to preempt the creation of self-aware bricklaying robots by applying David Benatar’s arguments: the happiness of a self-aware bricklaying robot that does not exist cannot outweigh the misery of a self-aware bricklaying robot that exists.
Nm, double post.
ETA I see Shut up Lutz has been banned! Yay!
You know you’re doing something right when this happens.
See, now I’m imagining **Marcus Flavius **as a whiny, half-assed John Henry, constantly losing professional competitions to machines.
Lord, Lord.
HamptonsLax sounds like a recent trock. Anyone remember who? Like maybe a month ago?
The water allergy guy, maybe?
I’m thinking Epic’s footwear for that one.
I’m no good at detecting socks, but I’m pretty sure I’ve correctly pegged EscAlaMike as a troll. He’s brand-new, and his posts in the Kavanaugh thread are definitely trollish.
