it was sad to learn that there are more neonazis sympathisers than i thought, but it was even sadder to realize that their opponents arent exactly opposing them on the principles they pretend to

imagine if worker strikes still existed.... the things tech workers could do... lucky for Capital, they've been groomed well

Game design is very political, it's an art of manipulation of people's perceptions, some sort of attentional prestidigitation

AI WARS A 5 HOUR SERIES IN TWO PARTS PART 1 OUT TOMORROW youtu.be/gEsJTqxacFM?...

software engineering is a blessed niche for capitalism. in order to keep the same code working through the years you basically have to work on it full time to keep up with all the updates in libraries (and fashion) and so on

how far is the West willing to go to avoid thinking? turns out very, very far.

remember when you wanted to watch the world burn? how does it feel now XD

dear people who think politics is a pendulum that will one day swing back, this may or may not be true, but we are in a new geological epoch and that doesnt really "swing back"

fair enough visual artists, drawers, actors, get all the eyeballs of mankind for all I care, the writers will have the last laugh cause everything all the AIs will ever know about thinking they'll learn from them!

cant believe the hype about the wildfires lasted only one day before they went back to bombing humanitarian aid ships

loving doctor who is not an excuse to condone eurovision, please try to not pinkwash genocide too much in your fandom activities, thanks in advance

Parental relationship are kinda parasocial. How many parents actually know their children

its only censorship if it comes from the censorship part of china otherwise its sparkling invisibilisation

contemporary politics is a reminder that medieval (even prehistorical) time was not so long ago and brains are still thinking this way. in this blip of time we managed to fuck up the ecosystem on geological scale though

on the one hand its tragic cause i can feel my own cognitive decline, on the other hand i just have to turn on the news to reassure me that im still in the top percentile of mankind lol

yes, making aligned AI is near impossible. on the other hand, making anything more aligned than current humans is probably pretty easy. A banana probably has more ethics than the average voter

is this... Chat? in the room with us right now?

Technofeodalism is the privatization and capitalization of the public (albeit digital) sphere

real time is an underexploited mechanic in videogame

I think we don't talk enough about how capitalism is an extremely inefficient and wasteful production system

Can I gamify making people sue amazon or like get unionized

Llms can simulate linguistically (ie semantically) every possible functionalist description of the human brain, that's not nothing. anything you can describe.

all things considered its kinda genius for fascism to have latched on their last victims and merge with zionism its a very, very effective PR shield

"Losing your job" was basically invented 2 centuries ago. It's literally nothing

the problem with animal tales for human morality is that humans actually dont have a biological need to eat each other

the world needs a cronenberg musical

i bet orwell would be pretty impressed to know that we can remove meaning from words and depleting language without actually removing words lol

The world changes way faster than your beliefs about it

i might believe that wokeness was invented by the cia in 2016 to prevent bernie sanders from becoming president though now https://youtu.be/oIzuTabyLS8

The archetype of the crackpot jungian

Isn't it about time we start calling out zionists as antisemites since they defend that Judaism is necessarily genocidal which doesn't seem very respectful to me

theres a lot of commonalities between neuro-sama and lain

I genuinely think people don't comprehend how few not-nazis there are in mankind

the amount of cognitive dissonance required to function in today's far right dystopia is staggering to me

a significant fraction of the human race believes spinach is a strong source of iron because a single goofus fucked up in writing his decimals. that alone should be a warning that epistemology is a constant active struggle

something lacanian about colonialism and "sang blanc" "semblant"

why arent wind turbines made out of solar panels

fingered by the invisible hand of the market ? a chuck tingle fanfic

its sad and ironic cause jordan peterson's whole schtik was at some point "accept that you're a potential nazi" banality of evil yada yada yada and the net result was instead of making humans more careful it made nazis more banal XD

It feels like the main contribution from most politicians in my lifetime was to make neoliberal capitalism and far right neo fascism literally indistinguishable

this is very important, "extremism" is not the opposite of "majority", its very possible for the majority of people to adopt an extreme ideology

Hypnosis is just prompt engineering for humans

i cant believe it happened again
