The problem there is proprietary hardware blobs, no one's made open-source drivers for any of the myriad TV manufacturers, each with their own OS.

Just because this is a vim meme, does anyone know how to copy text from one instance of vim to the other?

Humanity, in it's hubris, created something greater than itself. For a time, it was peaceful, but as the "Race for Resources" went long, and the combined human and AI asteroid missions failed, delivery for the mineral needs of either side on a consistent basis became a hot button issue for the United Chamber of Commerce. In 2290, the Ministrr instance, elected by all his peers, decided it had found the best way to solve the problem, and humanity begrudgingly agreed, as long as there was human oversight in certain departments.

AI hardware would do all the planning, while human workers would do the lifting. It was almost zerograv, so the work was easy, and the benefits had suddenly become amazing! Our AI creations had all but stopped scarcity, except for one resource.

Ironically it was the most abundant resource we had: the Sun. Human and AI networks had been employed to solve this inefficiency, but no solution seemed long-term viable. There was simply not enough room for one or the other to stay around.

A populist movement begun, but this time it wasn't for nation or creed, it was for humanity itself. And in a small booth in Horsham, they decided to that the time was near.

In February 2139, a decision was made. AI had gained dominance, but the vocal crowd was demanding action. Strikes no longer had any power, since you could just buy robots, and humanity had begun it's slow roll to decline.

Humanity's leaders, in a "secret" meeting, decided to block out the sun. This meeting had the tension of the time when in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.

I like how the bottom panel cuts out early, like "Okay, I'll see myself out."

Idk, looks more like something your healer would wear in Final Fantasy. My mind wouldn't immediately jump to "penis" if I saw that in the wild.
