Eh, I like being a hydralisk anyway.

sleep deprivation works too C:

Sounds like taliban/fascist strategy: keep people apart and make everyone hate you so you can then claim you’re embattled because everyone rejects you.

Just call them regrub and egasuas, now with 0% horse meat or other sleazy mystery meats (true)

Hahaha, now even the source of new data is starting to be poisoned by LLMs…good luck trying to outproduce LLM slop to train LLMs…and ending up with goop real fast.

The media are not up to task for this…it’s all a reality show to them.

or whatever disgusting mess the US is sleepwalking into…

hah, TIL, thanks!

offshores (sorry, I meant tax havens) like the Virgin Islands

Major EU Offshores law coming (e.g. Panama papers are from 2016, buttcoin also started going then)…but it was also the time that the "rest of the world"^TM reached more than 50% web penetration…lots of things happened then to create the incentive and make possible the then new tools of manipulation to subvert elections.

Most people are not proud of their own turds…most…

'tis like watching a tennis match between a frog and a tree

I didnt know social spiders already existed, reminded me of this 2002 BBC speculative documentary: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0kGtDyuXMDU where the last mammals are hamsters that communal spider society herds :D

Oh look, that cheap hydro aluminium just found somewhere to go! :D thank you daddy tramp

Good science is boring, good politics is boring, good espionage is boring, good journalism is boring, good history is boring, good banking is boring, good business is boring. Entertainment serves us this pop view of the world…

But wikipedia is more valuable than all the LLM slop machines combined.

You need ground rules and objectives to reach any desired result. E.g. a court, an academic conference, a comedy club, etc. Online discussions would have to happen under very specific constraints and reach enough interested and qualified people to produce meaningful content…

The US and China are not equivalent in this. The UK is not neutral ground like Brazil or India where I agree that both need to be equally represented as opposite poles to balance.

Because it’s already built and the UK depends on the US militarily. China should not be given a chance to do the same.

PS: but it’s very easy, China can ask Moscow to build one there and I’m sure they’ll agree.

Just no more mega-embassies. That’s all, everyone knows what it means, it’s bad enough when a friend does it.
