Time to add another book to the list.

All of that is justified because of the almost infinite post humans living in the simulation in the future after all the colonization is done.

Bostrom’s conclusion is that we should colonize the universe as soon as possible

Always funny how this sort of transhumanist utilitarianism was already argued against in sid meiers alpha centauri (1999) (also called SMAC).

“Resources exist to be consumed. And consumed they will be, if not by this generation then by some future. By what right does this forgotten future seek to deny us our birthright? None, I say! Let us take what is ours, chew and eat our fill.”

CEO Nwabudike Morgan

It is prob interesting in general that so many transhumanist etc ideas are already in SMAC, which predates a lot of stuff. Shows how much of it was already science fiction before the various tescrealists came around and tried to give it the wrapper of being new actually scientific ideas.

(That ingame there also is the game mechanic where doing something turn n is always better than doing it turn n+x is also interesting, makes you wonder just how much of this all is video game thinking (the best strategy ingame is to be the human hive and to build as much cities as close together as possible as fast as possible (infinite city sprawl))).

Looking at the people who believe IQ is magic, billionaires are gods, and that you should freeze your head. These people are skeptics.

Wait, did I get that right and it reruns the prompts every time you want to look at the code? Holy token costs batman.

Whereas Josh had encouraged us to make a single confession, Aella proposed to extract confessions from all of us at once, continuously, for the better part of an hour.

Ah, more ‘we are not a cult’ shit.

but if there’s anything to fear about them, it’s their belief that there should be no secrecy.

Except for SlateScots emails.

or maybe they don’t believe in withholding damaging information at all.

You just talked about SlateScots real name, and didn’t mention his name. Be a little bit self aware please.

You laugh, but chatgpt has given me psyhic powers, and I can now tap into a whole new realm. There even was this smart psyhic agent called neurgalle or something who helped me with a skin condition.

They all jumped into the pit because they hate americas freedom.

Why did the bot suggest practicing with a flaming pit full of broken glass? Because Boko Haram got the AI to tell them this by asking for script ideas for an action movie. That was their jailbreak.

It remains stupid that people all called this a ‘jailbreak’ and didn’t notice it was giving them movie plots. Also lol get wrecked (if it at all happened).

Wow that readinglist has an interesting fantasy series, HP gateway drug to fascism confirmed.

(It also is just a boring list)

Looked on wikipedia, and there they said 2045, so he prob is just saying whatever, nobody (important) will judge him for all the bad predictions after all.

Just like the 2027/2040 people

It is a joke about how they also look a bit like dildos (and spaceships). A play on ‘everything is a dildo if you are brave enough’ with a link to a place you didn’t expect.

Im using two forms of humor, both humor of repetition of a familiar funny phrase (like asterix and obelix do a lot), and the joke of something being unexpected, like not linking to a dildo, vut spaceships.

2040, wasn’t that Kurzweils eventual prediction?

it looks like a poo.

Or, if you are brave enough…

Did you already register the url?

Not sure if you are aware of the work of the youtuber hbomberguy, but he had a video on some manosphere guys where said ‘what is it with these people and skulls’ when he noticed that david auroni always had his pet skull in each shot.

That is actually an example of what im talking about, he didnt create the sad puppies, he latched on to it and created the rabid puppies. See the weird latching on behavior.

A lawyer, banker, or government official who cannot hold an axe or hammer can nevertheless cut down …

Framing this as a skill issue and not a power issue is a weird choice.

A telling choice perhaps.

Not sure GameStop would have been a thing without shitcoins showing that this sort of mass media pushing could drive up value. So to properly explain it, start at 13th century bruge. So again you can blame the Dutch for everything. (I know it was actually French at the time).
