Even those in the west who hate religion often have a very Christian outlook on life.

I think about this all the time.

You can see it in what passes for politics – people are only interested in judging who is Good and who is Bad.

It's part of the reason I've been using the internet a lot less; it is overrun with Puritan hordes.

Jesus is common to Christianity+Islam, but not Juadaism.

Spanish and English are only kinda-sorta 'different languages'

Is it really true that in the West rich people are less skeptical of psychic things than poor people?

I've heard this once before on Hexbear.

Most places it's the opposite – poor people are comfortable ideas like ghosts, telepathy, astrology, and the rich people look down their noses at that with a sort of 'Western scientific' attitude.

I saw one that's steam-powered. You put 10% of the wood in the furnace and that chips the other 90% of the wood. No electricity is generated.

Oh yeah, looks like a follow-up to Gomorrah, which I watched years ago

the writer forgot to say which society it is

That's getting a bit too vague for me.

How is giving people a chatbot like giving paraplegics pedals? Nobody has explained it yet.

'fundamental' would mean it applies to good analogies, not just wrong ones

The meme is "giving a chatbot to an email user is like giving pedals to a paraplegic"

Why are email users comparable to paraplegics. What are they unable to do that everyone else can?

In a pedal wheelchair? Come on

This feels like clarifying with mud.

Real thing

I don't get it.

Why are people who use email or something unable to operate a chatbot?
