To borrow a term from the podcast "Scam Goddess", a "serial entrepreneur", which in turn is just a scam artist.

Apple fanboys: "Apple has a singular, perfect vision for how people should interact with technology. I would get all my sensory organs replaced by Apple peripherals if I could. They should be allowed to trample us."
NB: apple has trampled over me but not my spirit
Truly a gift that shall keep on giving
This is fundamentally a part of any kind of race science or racism.
And fascism! Or any discriminatory -ism, up to and including capitalism.
In this article I’ll be making a distinction between what I call Hard WN and Soft WN.
In this article I will mostly be describing why I left Soft WN.

10^27 future lives
Ok here’s my Rat fermi-time traveller party paradox, in short, the Rat FTTP paradox.
- According to Rat doctrine, many worlds is true and science is amazing and will solve all problems eventually.
- Lack of time travel is a problem, meaning in some world, eventually there will be time travel, by 1.
- Lack of 10^27 people is a problem*, so we will also have that, also by 1.
The paradox: If time travel is so easy and there will be so many future lives, where are all the future rats?
No seriously, where are they? This FTTP orgy was supposed to start 24 hours ago.
Years ago a friend of mine asked me if I was interested in IoT/smart devices and I said I didn’t want to be locked out of my house if the wifi was out. His reaction indicated to me that he lost some amount of respect for me, and in turn I lost respect for him.
Since then I’ve only really seen IoT stuff in the homes of tech people, everyone else just DGAF. I think AI is following that same trajectory.
PS Years later pretty much the same exchange happened with brain simulated “immortality”, with the same mutual loss of respect.
PPS I currently have some smart lights installed. Once the initial novelty of having a bunch of RGB lights wore off, I pretty much just use them as normal bulbs, except with their brightness turned all the way down.
PPPS I also have some google speakers. None of them are in use.
the new thing, well nobody can tell you that you’re doing things wrong if nobody knows for sure what are you doing. to even tell whether it’s working or not you’d need to sit in heads of israeli military planners and know what are their exact objectives and acceptable collateral damage
Yeah, and I don’t think they are ever going to be explicit about how their “AI” works.
I mean I either want no fingers or all the fingers for my pizza
I’ve tried various face creams of different levels of prestige and not really noticed a difference, so, no, I guess.
I 100% really did not intend for the name to work so well with that context but am once again thankful for all the gifts it brings.
