So they want to know what porn and videogames I've been looking at? Will they help with my source list problem? I have too many and could use some help.

Isn't that the road they did the audi car flip scene?

There are a lot of grey driving roads in California, but none are worth dying in.

I expect the same. If they put Bloodborne on other consoles as well, I don't think Sony has an actual console anymore. It will be the steam machine vs Switch.

On the other hand, I've seen some people use Gaussian Splats hooked up to a driving simulator to make some great looking driving games. It's all new, so who knows if the controls will work, but it looks nice.

Ok, I have a different answer. Let's say AI is a big change. It rarely goes in the direction the people in charge want. They want a closed group they control and Lord over everyone else.

Imagine 100 years ago. The Model T is just coming out and it's starting to sell well. Movies are starting to make it big. What does everyone base things on? That's right, what they're accustomed to. So, cars are for upper class and maybe upper middle class people. Movies are a spectacle and that's it. The masses don't need it. There is industry entirely aimed at the markets for this. People were paid to dig up the crap off the street.

If you told an industrialist from that era what society looked like, would he understand? If you understood that the change is happening, how would you help move it? How would you help those that need help? As a boy scout I was paid to dig crap out of barns and streets. It did not pay well since so little was needed.

Everything is aimed at industries that won't matter, or won't be used the way everyone thinks. Money is being used to prop up businesses and industries being hit, but no one knows what to do beyond that.

The guy who came up with the term Disruption said that Silicon Valley and tech central cities would become the next Detroit. Seattle has a lot of rich industrialists who want centralized power, but no real idea where anything is pointing. Meanwhile the area itself grows poorer and more insane.

Get this, Detroit still has steel mills. In fact they make more steel than they had before. The technology itself needs way less people. The city was designed for the jobs to be permanent.

Are we seeing Billions and even trillions going into a direction that may or may not be the future? Let me correct myself. Let's say AI really is the future. Is the money being spent right now for it to happen where AI will actually end up? We saw people aim VR in the worst direction. It's not that it is bad, it's that the very same people promoting AI right now did not understand what they were aiming for. They built a city for jobs that didn't exist.

The best answer is to figure out how AI and automation will actually be used. Elon Musk tends to be a big industrialist. I think the space data centers are just his excuse to get us into space. His aim is space, AI and all that are just a means to get there. I've had a lot of people tell me to do things in a specific way because it's just what they did beforehand with AI. Sort of like how the early movies were just Broadway plays with cameras. The early cars were just the wagon without a horse and then placed an engine. Model T didn't have foot pedals the way you know them. The original pinball table looks sort of like a boardgame. It was placed in an industry the way most would expect to work, but isn't what it will end up being.

Theme Parks are very expensive and teaching their limits. Conventions are cheaper and change faster. Pop up Experinces can be anywhere and don't need the cost and insanity of the convention. Make a YouTube show and other stuff and you have the modern entertainment. Does anyone who designs theme parks know this? Yeah, I know a few. None of them want it to hurry up because they're out of a job and their skill set is not as needed.

So, I think the money is aimed at people trying to get power or keep an industry going. No one in power knows where it is going, and those that so will try to stop it if they can. All this money is for keeping jobs and power.

Man, I was just discussing this with a friend. He and I grew up in Seattle and watched as the world said all white straight people were evil. So our options given were be gay, be evil, or go hardcore fake traditionalist. It's not an actual tradition, just the concept of it that we think works. None of the options worked and Seattle fell.

Why did they reject Elijah? Elisha? Isaiah? The judges? Joseph? Abraham? Why did David fall so greatly and write psalms so amazingly?

Pontius Pilot was told by his wife not to like Joshua of Mary, and yet the politics said he had to. Every legend they had placed the prophets as these great men who had powers like the gods. Who would reject Moses? Yet he was rejected several times. A normal looking man who does have great power, but chooses to be human like us is hard to accept. They want Hercules and the stories of Elijah to be constantly happening. Isaiah was performing miracles and was sawed in half. Daniel performed miracles and yet the people did not care. The only reason why Joshua wasn't rejected was he had no problems with beating people to death.

Basically, they wanted the Aang from the last episode of Avatar the Last Airbender, and not the actual kid who did it all. We know the stories, but that's the highlights, not the normal boring days.

When we only look at the human, we often reject the idea of all that could be done by one. Even greater, what God can do with them. I feel the same way about technology and art.

Makes me wonder if they use the giant rats or dogs if it plays Wolfenstein 3D.

The problem is that the bird brain does not work the same as the rat one. So comparisons are like potatoes and oranges.

Robin Hood was a common name for criminals. Just means guy with a hood. Most original stories have him as a bit of a drunken low life. He would gain and lose a kingdom at cards and then end up asleep on the curb in the same story.

Then the midlands festivals began to include him. A lot of the great legends came form them. Marion was actually the main character from a previous one, so they had Robin marry her eventually. This was awkward because he had a girlfriend before that.

In fact, many of the characters from the story are actually from those fairs. Friar tuck was one year, and Little Jon was another. The evil Sheriff was a villain to a few of them.

The suit we associate with him is the uniform for archers in that time. The colors represent the actual army he belonged to.

Was he real? The people who believe he was do not think there was a Lord Robin of Locksely. There was a Robin Hood who became the basis of the story. The royal fanfare was placed to make him sound better to the upper class types who funded the faires.

The very original stories were written in patois and middle English because those were the major languages for common folk at the time. So Robyn Hode ded want and fue is a line you might find.
