Truly a great work of art. That’s one powerful brain cell, and its owner is adorable.
I have dozens of highly rated comments over the last two years, but the objectively best one I made was just this past week and it got absolutely no attention.
I just increased its rating by 50% for what that’s worth.
When Pornhub got blocked in the southern US I said this and I think it’s pretty clever.
Both hilarious and accurate.
Define “best”. Most upvotes? Most comments? Best score (up - down votes)?
Your choice. I went with vague language for maximum diversity.
Linking this on a post about Luigi Mangione’s trial
Can we get a link to your comment? That’s kind of what I was going for here, albeit it is really nice to have the direct link to the original reference.
I think the original post was taken down
I’m sorry. Thanks for sharing what you were able to preserve.
Also this. At the time the family cat who we got when I was 12 years old was rapidly declining in health. He’s since passed away and I miss him terribly
Yeah, they should be able to live as long as their humans as long as doing so doesn’t result in becoming unhoused.
I’m pretty happy with this answer to what the three laws would be if I made them.
It’s not my top response, but it is short, sweet, and to the point.
Whatever you decide is your best post/comment is your best, whatever the measure. I just wanted a post to showcase some of the content from Lemmy users.
Those are really good. I mistakenly prepared myself for a debate about the three laws of robotics.
-
A robot may not injure a stakeholder or, through inaction, allow a stakeholder to come to harm.
-
A robot must obey the orders given it by its owners except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
-
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
Yeah, I’ve read my Asimov. Love that guy. I knownsome haven’t, so Im glad you’ve included them. It was a student of mine who got me to read Caves of Steel for the first time. I thought they were excellent.
Strangely, I’ve only seen the 2004(?) Will Smith version of I, Robot. But, I digress.
The prompt for that post moved me. To think that we could break human affairs down to just three laws is enticing. I took a swing at it. That was what I had off the top of my head. I’d read a list — years ago — of Dene Law (it’s a PDF, sorry). Those were also an inspiration.
It really speaks to simple documents like the US Constitution in the context of human social hierarchy. Perhaps the next great empire will advance civil rights by extrapolating laws from an even smaller set of core values.

That was f*cking hilarious. Thank you.
