*IF an asteroid the size of Mount Everest slams into the Earth during
the next year then that will stop the Singularity, but there is only
about one chance in 100 million of that happening. The war in Ukraine,
global warming, the threat to Taiwan, and decaying US infrastructure
will NOT stop, or even significantly delay, the arrival of the
Singularity. But none of the dangers I mentioned in the previous two
sentences will decide the November 5th election, the American people
believe that the most significant dangers facing the nation today are
excessive wokeness, the "invasion" from Mexico, and transsexuals. *
*I'm an "American people" and I think the election of Donald Trump is
the most significant danger facing the nation, and I'm pretty sure I'm
in the majority....I'm just not sure I'm not in the Electoral College
majority.
