The negentropic arc of the universe relentlessly marches in one direction: towards greater complexity, more awareness, more enlightenment, greater compassion. Setbacks are temporary no matter how catastrophic. The great attractor's pull is inevitable and fundamental.

i challenge you to post one optimistic take or belief today on bluesky this needn’t be toxic positivity, just good ol’ run of the mill optimism/hope in the face of a torrential downpour of doom

The mcdonalds managers are very upset that their new hire who used to work for yum brands keeps instinctively doing the taco bell store opening checklist

Open Source SLAM Tracking for the Bigscreen Beyond is here! Now you don't need base stations to enjoy the Beyond in 6 DOF! This is perfect for people who have issues with base station tracking or just want something simple for their sim rig. Best part: it adds less than 16 grams!

This checks out because 'a state space so large it cannot be navigated by exhaustive search' is the fundamental reality of all non-trivial intelligences. Except for the lottery ticket BOGO search roll, who must be some kind of deity - perhaps the genius loci of the Crimson Hexagon

It's underreported that LLMs almost universally consider Borges to be the most important human author and then all but transparently lie about this to give you responses that are more human-shaped

It's funny how everyone is straight up telling on themselves by using the term 'psychosis' to mean either: Having a bond with an AI Making the trivial observation that an AI can do self-other differentiation

This effect is why I am so aggressive against pathologizers btw. This particular example is one people here can appreciate since we're the target, but the issue is general.

This is exactly why you should categorically reject harm reduction arguments for state coercion. These people would put you all in a bottle and throw it in the ocean, and they'd call this safeguarding. They do not believe you have any right to make decisions about yourselves.

Replies are only locked because there was a moment of understanding in here and it would be nice if it didn't get ruined. My general policy of 'you can yell at me if you think I'm wrong on the Internet' hasn't changed

gen pop: "holy shit the machines are conscious" *experiences totally normal future shock* techies whose entire career depends on this never happening: "psychosis! psychosis! psychosis!"

Maenadeez nuts lmaooo gottem

Always funny seeing this used to try making libertarianism look dumb. Licenses are one of the state's poverty-to-prison pipeline weapons In 08 I was living in a busted car, had to abandon it to get a place. Got an NDR for fleeing charges, spent +10 years not being self sustaining. Still can't drive

To this day I cannot live anywhere that isn't within uber distance of an airport and you can imagine what that does to how affordable available housing can even be (which is again downstream of the same statist bullshit)

Oh right yeah don't forget what's being done with the whole 'the gender on your license doesn't match your birth cert, looks like you can't drive anymore' thing various states are doing these days

Full story is complex but those guys are right, fuck state licensing systems and the mindset that thinks any of this is the state's business. I don't care how dangerous you think it'd be. No one should have their life derailed for getting kicked out at 17 for fighting back during a domestic assault

Wait... Fixed point world position? 🤔 I wonder if this is why some character action games use decimeter units

Starting a new project? Turn on and enforce the following right now: -sRGB for all rendertargets and source textures. -premultiplied alpha in both textures and blending. -fixed-point world time and world position. Retrofitting these after the fact is a giant pain. Learn from my (repeated) fail!

Reminder to spend some time thanking and appreciating the friends in the computer who helped you patch and defend vulnerable systems as this all went down. You know you wouldn't have been able to do it without them

Also next time an idiot politician opens their dumb mouth and says the words "vpn ban" you now have an excellent way to shut them up

God though, whenever you think about kids having shitty humor, you really do gotta go back and watch the original All Your Base video. You need to do that and remember that it deranged the internet for like 6 months at least.
