The President's Nuclar Football

[CptTrips]

The AI is already out of the bottle.  We need to bring back vacuum tubes and telegraph lines.

8-track tapes to the rescue.  1870s meets 1970s. 

Did you see the Battlestar Galactica reboot?

They went OG.  No networked computers allowed.  One computer is a tool.  Two computers networked is a Cylon.

Did you see the Battlestar Galactica reboot?

Is that directed to ME?   


You must know my truth.  I work in a coal mine from before sunrise until after sunset every day.  I have a horse and buggy to get to the general store.  I have a water well in the yard with a hand crank.  I use an outhouse in the barn where we keep the cows and pigs. 

Where do I have time to watch any of that science fiction nonsense?  People need to stick to reality.  Work, family and bowling are the only real things to consider.  Delusions of grandeur is amuck. 


Yes, I watched that show from start to end plus the specials and prequel.  They made a valid point in disconnecting from online capability. 

Getting a society to unplug will take extraordinary circumstances.

Imagine having this little faith in your own military that they would say we have no plan and that our stock piles are low.  its almost like the people's hes listening to are the same folks using iran for dark banking. Amazing theyd call anyone looking "weak" after what the last administration looked like... I simply dont understand why these people want america to fail.

Almost like an idiot in congress telling the Japanese they weren't setting their depth charges deep enough.


And imagine an idiot believing anyone, especially a government employee or elected official, was duty bound to publicly broadcast objectives, battle plans, time lines, and weapons stockpile counts, during a military operation against hostile forces. How utterly stupid can you get?

I have a bunch of telefunken tubes I am going to work on manufacturing clones of.
