Sounds to me like your body is giving your sound advice. Now throw in some sort of chilled drink based on coconut, pineapple and dark spiced rum. Your liver demands it.

Ah, common issue. When that happens, you just start using your toes.

Pah, mathematicians and their generally applicable pure approach to solutions and fancy modulus operations, who needs 'em? Computing is applied and we always work with well-defined finite precision. Granted, writing the boilerplate for all possible 64 bit integers is a bit laborious, but we’re programmers! That’s what code generation is for.

Right. The point is: No, unfortunately I’m not. Damn shame really, but what can you do?

No, I don’t remember any of those people, and I doubt they care about me either. While we’re on the subject, that is far from the only way in which I’m nothing like Ryan Gosling.

Incidentally, that also happens to be a highly accurate description of Trump’s testicles.

“Is someone close to him on the list?”

“Yes, much like you, it’s someone who’s very very close indeed.”

It’s even more potent than that! I’m not even female, but now I suddenly want to be so this can make me gay.

There’s a lot of decent models out there, these days. The following are all solid options:

• F5-TTS (https://github.com/SWivid/F5-TTS.git)
• Sesame CSM (git@github.com:SesameAILabs/csm.git)
• SparkTTS (https://github.com/SparkAudio/Spark-TTS)
• Kokoro (https://github.com/hexgrad/kokoro)

Wait. That’s not normal? I gotta fix my diet.

Alternatively, you could use a browser instead of an advertisement delivery app.

Eh. It’s not like we’d be getting anywhere at sub-light speeds regardless and a working Alcubierre drive isn’t exactly right around the corner.

On the other hand, it might make it harder for anybody with working FTL to get to us, which is probably a good thing. If they saw how we’re conducting ourselves at the moment, orbital bombardment would be the best we could hope for.

Ah yes, the printing press: Likely the most cumulatively subversive memetic infection vector ever conceived.

Define ‘mind-control’. Trans-cranial magnetic stimulation has been perfectly capable of changing people’s broad moods since 1985 and is being actively used to treat depression right now. The underlying technology is only going to get more precise, especially as more research on spintronics is done for other purposes. Sure, right now our understanding of how what goes on in a given brain translates to ‘thoughts’ is insufficient to change those thoughts in any reliable way, but there’s little doubt that when we do, the technology to make it happen will almost certainly be around.
