Ok weird head cannon time:
Watching alien earth has really convinced me that blade runner and alien are in the same timeline. I mean Kirsh and Roy Batty look like they are a few generations apart at most.
It is. One day I may expand out into other VR systems. :)
Not yet. Iโm kinda digging the VR setup I have right now.

Stop using X/Xai products. Just donโt give them *any* attention. Anything else is basically bad for humanity. Donโt go to that site, def donโt log in, donโt have an account. Donโt even click links to it. There is no FOMO. Make it irrelevant and it will be.
Is there really any other way to have a hot dog? I mean the pinky up, fancy ones with relish are ok I guess but mustard is where itโs at.
If you see this, quote post with a robot that isn't from Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr. Who or Transformers.
