You misspelled "capitalism"

Just another celebrity talking about stuff they don't really know that much about. Jimmy's witty and all, but his "physics is real and everything else is just stamp collecting"... sigh.

"Speed of thought"... hmmm... We can call it "Impulse Driven Development" I'm sure it'll be great.

Our ability to rapidly ingest the opinions and experiences of others through language, media, demonstrations, etc. has given us as a species, an incredible advantage, along with some risks you noted.

For an example species following the "learn it for yourself" approach, see the very intelligent but very limited octopus.

Fair enough, but one person's "basic" may be another person's fancy tool/workflow. As far as I know most popular distros either come with a browser or install it from a GUI-based "software store" with pretty minimal effort, and then it "just works" to get on the internet. However, did your distro detect your machine's Wi-Fi card correctly? Maybe... so I concede your point.

Stop all the cherry picking, this isn't Reddit. Engage the argument in good faith.

Linux IS easier to install and use than ever before. If you stay within the FOSS ecosystem, the DE does usually work fine for what it's made for.

But people are complaining they can't flawlessly run Windows games in Linux. Come on. Most computer users aren't even gamers.

Oh no! You'll arrive 5 minutes later while reducing pedestrian fatalties! How will Murica survive?

Click bait worked on me.

Holy Shit. And not for a profit. If it were like a single lifetime-effective shot, this would be impossibly good. Still, very cool of this pharma co.

"...identifying with our sinful emotions and desires" Don't they also say that's why he was fucking sent to Earth in the first place?

And the US evangelical team has won the gold in mental gymnastics once again.

Compromises on principles, not compromises with people.

This is kinda sad, since I am genuinely worried that we're relying on AI tools to assist with comprehending what I thought was pretty straightforward allegory.

I phrased it the way I did in case it was actually ME that was getting trolled. Hopefully that's all it is, and I'm just underestimating the depth of trolling here.
