Please tell me, when it says "Transportation" on that chart, what exactly do you think is being transported, and where?

smallest part of the problem

This is what I'm trying to get across to you here. You've posted the same notion multiple times in this thread. The consumer share isn't the smallest part, it's most of it. All the oil we extract serves to make products, transport products, sell products to the consumer - you. It's not being being burnt for fun.

When you engage in consumption, any amount of it, you're pulling a string connected to a million other strings that mostly end up in an oil well one way or another. The luxury you speak of is in that consumption, not the lack of it.

And if you think otherwise, compare your lifestyle, your lifelong level of comfort to that of someone who spent their whole life living in a hut in Mali, whose lifelong emissions equal a few months worth of yours. Now try to tell that person that you're not responsible for the gas you burn, it's the fault of those that provided you with the option to do it. It's insulting.

If the providers are to blame for all emissions and the consumers are free of responsibility, then all consumption is equal. If Exxon is the responsible party, then the guy buying the gas guzzler to stick it to the libs is the same as the guy driving a hybrid, as neither is to blame for their emissions.

I understand choosing comfort over living in a cave or dying, obviously, but that doesn't mean we're free of any and all blame. Any time a new climate report comes and it's worse than the one before I understand that my existence and choice of comfort played a part in it . I don't just go "oh that Exxon, smh" and carry on guilt free.

You can hide chat and you'll barely even notice it's online. And I don't see how it's grindy - in fact they made the base game so easy your companion can kill everyone for you.

If you just play the base game content from 2011, it's 8 completely voice acted stories that are interconnected into one big story. And it's free.

Well Matthew Perry did invent sarcasm, so it tracks.

Well I believe if someone is benefiting from a common good, they should contribute to that good, but maybe I'm not Laissez-faire enough for this world, or "leftymemes".

so OPs original question remains: why is it called "AI", when it plainly is not?

Because a bunch of professors defined it like that 70 years ago, before the AI winter set in. Why is that so hard to grasp? Not everything is a conspiracy.

I had a class at uni called AI, and no one thought we were gonna be learning how to make thinking machines. In fact, compared to most of the stuff we did learn to make then, modern AI looks godlike.

Honestly you all sound like the people that snidely complain how it's called "global warming" when it's freezing outside.
