It's called a skeuomorph, and many times the camera symbol is one too, as most modern cameras don't look like that.

I'm just kind of assuming he's in mid- to late-stage Alzheimer's and hopefully won't last the year, probably getting "Amendment 25, sectional 5'd" by Vance at the earliest opportunity, and I don't think Vance has enough political will behind him to be a dictator.

Conversely, at most 68 million people voted for Harris. That means roughly 270 million people either didn't vote or voted for fascists, which means they're either so disenfranchised they couldn't vote, are idiots, were scared for their livelihoods and lied to (meaning they're still idiots, but at least they're also cowardly), or are fascists themselves.

Apparently he's worked on Lucasfilm games like Loom and the original Monkey Island, so I've inadvertently been a fan of his for a long time.

Maintaining continuity of consciousness is the only thing that would make me feel comfortable with converting myself to a machine intelligence.
