Society Announcements
Ladies and Gentlemen, I wanted to make a few announcements and updates about our Society. First of all, In the interest of making everything as legitimate and transparent as possible, I wanted to let everyone know that we have officially created a business bank account under the name, “The Society of Ordinary Gentlemen”. I had a personal account that was designated only for the Society funds but since it was a personal account it couldn’t not be in the Society’s name and I would be the only one on the account. One of my requirements for a business account is that it accepted Zelle so that donation lines would not get cut off. I have also started a business Venmo account for the same reason. That being said, it you are going to donate this Gentlemen’s Patronage Day through Zelle or Venmo, please check linktree since the QR code and the Venmo handle have changed. There have also been a couple of additions to the classroom. “A Gentleman's Personal Care” course has been added thanks to @David Zandar and a history course entitled “The Downfall of the Gentleman” has been added explaining the history behind the loss of the gentlemen concept and how the Society wants to combat that. This course came from a suggestion from @Nicholas Logan . Thank you for that. I put out a couple of links for Movie Recommendations which was a suggestion of @Jo Henderson and will be compiling that in the next few days and adding that to the course list that that everyone can reference that. We will also be changing some of the categories and the level names to more align with a gentlemen’s society. I ask that the categories that are more serious and contain post that have deep thought that should be taken seriously not have any comical comments as that will take away from the seriousness of the post. Thank you for your attention to these matters
The Rise of Robots
Apparently, China just created "Moya" - the most realistic robot/android so far. Features? - Cameras in the eyes - Most accurate expressions so far - Biometric human-temp warm skin - Walking gait 90% accurate to human Proposed uses? - Healthcare - Therapy - Customer service (general) - "Companion" While some consider it creepy in the uncanny valley between human and machine and fear the singularity, and others fear loss of jobs, some praise it as a step toward necessary replacement when it comes to the more challenging aspects of human interaction (especially since social media, let alone the sheer number of predicted geriatric population to need care in the coming 10-20 years). What are your thoughts?
The decline of the suit explained
https://www.facebook.com/share/v/16hU3REJFe/ I feel like I saw this post from someone on this site and if so, I apologize for the duplication. Such a sad reality here. Dignity culture is absolutely the right word, but when our society is filled with hopelessness for the future that cannot be possible to revive again. I very much feel like a relic from the past...we all are.
