Based on mine, I'd say about 900 additional books. :-/

I do adore the dynamic between her and Chavez. Excellent writing!

Eh, people get emotionally attached to computer game NPCs and various fictional characters. So I'm not surprised at all about people doing the same with chatbots.

As I understand it, AI processing burns through GPUs pretty quickly, so even if there is no expansion, just keeping the existing data centers going would keep the chips in high demand.

Sunsmoke the smog monster from the novel of the same name. A mad wizard/scientist brings the LA smog to life.

Oh, they know. This vote was carefully staged so that they could pretend that they weren't all going against the will of their constituents.

It would dislocate your shoulders, that's what it would do.

Shoot, you can even make that a plot point- "He can't be the real Bond, can he?" Have the characters themselves uncertain whether or not he's the "real" Bond- final conclusion, it doesn't matter.

It definitely helps in the standalone pic- you might wonder what the gizmo attached to his brain actually does, but not if it's called SEANCE.

It's even worse when you look at the details- the votes were all from Senators who AREN'T up for reelection anytime soon and included the Minority Whip.

Only happens when the Senators get together and go, "We've decided not to do what our constituents want, how can we avoid them punishing us?"

My story is called PARTISAN

43 pages of eviscerated androids, clicky buttons, CRT displays, airlocks, memories downloaded to VHS tapes via RCA cable ports embedded in a brain, and burst skulls inside of a cryogenic sleep chamber!

The brain-reader being called S.E.A.N.C.E. is hilarious.

It could also be loose audio cables, so make sure to unplug/replug them all if you haven't. No advice on drivers, but you could check to see if anyone of them were updated around the time that things started going bad.

I thought that's what Survivor was?

It's about time phrenology made a comeback.

The administration hires a TON of authoritarian types who would rather gargle glass than concede defeat. To them, to fight to the ridiculous, futile, bitter end is a mark of strength-- and admitting you were wrong is showing pathetic weakness.

I know it would set a bad precedent, but I would really, really love it if the next President says "Yeah, the Trump administration used an outdated form for those pardons, so they're all invalid. Back to jail for everyone he pardoned!"

Unfortunately, shitty politicians tend to be really good liars, otherwise they wouldn't have made it anywhere. So instead you have a party that enacts shitty policies, then convinces most of the voting public that it's someone else's fault.

I have, sadly, but I used to live in Texas.
