    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    I've seen the video. It does a crap job and is way slower than the organic/analog options.

    Yeah, but is alexa going to relentlessly chase me while bounding up stairs and doing backflips down stairs, with the help of it's robot dog, intent on killing me after it becomes aware and sick of me asking it what the weather is like outside?????

    This is a really scary idea that I can see happening. Just when I can start getting ready to have my own personal robot slave, someone has to get all real about, and fuck it all up.

    Dammit.

    I'm unfamiliar with that movie, Irving. Don't think I've ever even heard about it.

    It's a funny zombie movie that touches on what you're talking about. Not sure if you'd like it though.
