> I just realized that anti-AI sentiment can be used as justification to remove free and open source assets from public hosting. There is a group of liberal leaning scholars, artists, hoarders etc who believe in uploading their work and resources on the internet for free. So things like historical documents, nature footage, technical manuals for example are made freely available because their uploaders believe it helps advance scholarship and culture. These resources are then, as we know, are used for AI learning. Guess where the biggest blowback against AI comes from? The liberal left that believes in making things free. Welcome to the new internet where everything is paywalled or private. I wouldn't be surprised if the government and silicon valley is fueling both pro and anti AI discourses online. We are going to get the worst of both worlds.


you doofus, you juss jinxed it

I honestly think that the internet has been a net negative once you account for the shredded dysgenic fertility and amassed amount of effort and time wasted on trivial pursuits.

Ahahah, you're not alone!
The Internet is compared to the washing machine (there is a video on YouTube about it):


Washing machine: saves hours of life daily, no need to use washing board for hours. It's easy to use, almost "just push play" easy to use.

The Internet: Sure, saves lotsa time here, yet it also siphons, "vampires" a lot of time with notifications, updates, etc.


AND THE WINNER IS: WASHING MACHINE
(a century-old invention, mind you)

And don't get me started how freezers save our time also.

>I honestly think that if computers never developed beyond a CLI, and GUI were restricted from being developed, the world would've been a lot better. You'd still have production gains in industry from better organization, but you wouldn't have had any of the deleterious effects from the internet.



And then, saome 1337 h4><><0rz developed GUI-like contraptions out of ASCII art. Woudn't work.

>The internet undermines dictatorships as people just want to be doomscrolling and on their gooncave. Even fucking China has this problem of people becoming slaves to gacha games and internet gossip. They simply cannot make them give it up and have 3+ kids each for the good of the motherland anymore, even North Korea is struggling on that front.

Urbanization is known to ruin fertility, AFAIK

Hindu country bumpkin guys as hired workforce working for the Chinese refined metropolitan-cultured guys, with a chance to stop being a *haha fecal matter goes brrrrrt* for everyone. Not bad.

Smash them AI-farms sucking up my electricity and water

To summarise the design of the site, I'll drop a hint: t3h 51^/^3 ////45 %ULL 0% 5um fun/\/9 5(12i88135

"zOMG t3h 1337!" - I thought, widening my eyes. I spent no time realizing the site is enforcing old good leet speak for the extra privacy.

Despite looking like a basic forum with plain gray-ish background, the site looked both awfully edgy with all that leet-speak… and overengineered, with all those funny scripted effects where the <marquee> moving line of text was the least unusual. Random pixels would subtly change colors here or there. It was almost like the site was aired to my computer through a TeamViewer-like app, rather than opened as a tab on my machine. Or, maybe, it WAS aired on purpose. It was hard to tell. Hard to tell whether the site intended to look like XX century aired television with all the color bleeds and chromatic abberations or rather, there was some kind of purpose, such as an attempt to overload the system with junk information, that is.

I looked at the cassowary and nodded with a smile, compressing my feelings like "Oh yeah! J00! It's just like the g00d 01d tymes! k3w1!" and mundane "I'm in".

There was a funny decoration in the background also: a realistc 3d cylinder turning into funny face and uncreasing back to a cylinder back and forth.

My knowledge of computer systems was hinting me to trust this gibberishful design. You could feel it's an attempt to overflow any possible sniffer with hard to process information. Maybe there was a funny "zip" trick cycling somewhere as well to surprise a more advanced system?

- "A site for (/_/17U23|) h4><><orz doesn't need "rules", - I thought.
- "My old "rebel without cause" self was telling me to avoid checking the clearly visible "ru13s" button of the site. In modern terms, a button for rules of the site could have been a honeypot."

To my surprise, I suddenly heard my own voice going all boomer: "Back in my days, "rulez" had a very different meaning".

"How far back are you talking about here?" chirped the cassowary.

I felt a lump in my throat form—coagulated from pure nostalgia—and replied "Too long, man… too long."

"Well, I don't exactly know what you are referring to by 'rulez', but check them out, they'll be useful for you."

"I think I prefer to do things my own way." Wow, I can't believe I said that. I could notice the intensity of my heartbeats increasing, but not following rules rulez.

"Look, I was assigned to guide you, but I'm not some babysitter. Tell me when you give up."

Fucking bird brain. You think I can't crack this site? I'll have you know I've…umm…well, I've made a few scripts and designed my myspa—wait, why the hell was I chosen for this?

I defiantly chose not to reply and continued frantically rushing through pages and trying to interact with every element. As my desperation began to grow, that toilet roll's presence began to irritate me. Just the same animation again and again, making that stupid face, at the exact same pace. Hold on. That time it took a bit longer. It isn't a basic loop, the two states mean something deeper—1s and 0s! It can't just be 10101.. though, maybe the length determines the length of how many times a binary digit will repeat before it alternates.

I opened up a spreadsheet, a Wikipedia page for ASCII representation and started to track the times.

Yeah, I'd say so as well. As the writer of the spy and worm post, I want the next person to feel free to take this story in whatever direction they want and have fun coming up with a name for the cybernetic worm thing.

I chuckled. OP should get a vacation but he is at least somewhat funny.

Managing a small warehouse (where you do all the work AND the paperwork) is great if you are a "shut-in" in terms of job focis, not your whole personality.

you did it on purpose

>>319940
I have one friend who works online as a software tester of some sort, I think? His job is to simply check software for bugs and report em, which sounds pretty alright. Pay is surprisingly quite high, like 5 of my dead end job paychecks, but dude got the job through personal connections, mostly by being a honest to god, natural born social butterfly. Also, I heard some people are getting replaced by AI anyway in this kind of industry, so I'm not sure if it'll be easy to get into field right now.

>>319940
I don't think you just got laid. Enjoy your hand.

Slav squat here

I sit in my chair like this sometimes, or if I'm somewhere outside my room and there is no chair around and I need a rest.
But it's not really for any reason other than it's comfortable.

>>322210
sure I do that as well but the point is your butt doesn't have to touch the surface so it's not really an asian squat

I do this with 310lbs on my shoulders, then I stand up with that weight and go up and down between squatting and standing like that until my legs are tired, then I reduce the weight and keep going. It's an extremely wizarldy exercise because succubi can't get to my penis when it's so low to the ground and if they try to steal my manner when I'm in the standing phase I can just drop the weight on them and they die every time.

Okay, it's getting easier to do and I throw some actual squats after it. Today I'll do a hundred squats after holding the asian squat position for at least 5-7 min in sets of 5-7

Feeling proud of my progress.

Deepstate still has sway in places where voters are retarded and easily manipulated by rich people gaslighting the poorer into believing they're at fault for all the issues in society.

>>322311
I assoom the deepstate has some kind of schizophrenia


(or rather, the guys who form "deep state"-like set of connections are not monolith-like so their interests conflict one against other; say, bunch of Scottish 'estors could pull the counterforce out of both spite and some sense of humour)

>>322243
Yeah, no. We're talking Elon Musk levels of money here. If Satoshi or whoever has control of his wallet is still alive, they would do something with it.

Countries have started wars for sums smaller than the Satoshi wallets. The money is probably gone because the owner died and nobody has the wallet key.

>>322244
>If Satoshi or whoever has control of his wallet is still alive, they would do something with it.
It's Crypto, not real money. What can they even do with it? Buy shrooms and child porn off of onion sites? The money was gone the instant it got converted in to crypto.

>>310637
I know this is an old thread I'm responding to but I just wanted to say it's hard to tell genuine analysis from bullshit and most of the get rich crypto stuff ends up wasting people's money, there are so many shitcoins out there and people comign up with word salad that looks smart, if I'm a mod I'm not studying blockchain physics to understand if its correct or not, I'm protecting users from potentially getting scammed, but I can see it from both angles as well about free speech and trying to help people

>>322246
Nothing was converted. It was mined within minutes before anyone even heard of bitcoin.

It was utterly worthless at the time. Hence the infamous 25000 bitcoin pizza delivery.

The miner simply lost his decryption key and is cursing his life every night he goes to sleep. Even if they cashed out a tiny fraction of the original stash slowly over a year they'd have 10 billion us dollars in fiat.

>>322246
>The money was gone the instant it got converted in to crypto.

de facto, Satoshi was mining it while it still was fresh, ehehe

One of the issues I'm having is that Satan has been murdering me for my entire life. I've been killing Satan in self-defense over this, and over all the other crimes Satan has victimized me with.

Again, I'm not joking, not lying, and I'm not incorrect.

>>322272
>>322273
Satan keeps trying to control everything about my existence, and it's been this way a long time. Almost a decade of Satan nonstop trying to decide every moment of my life. And Satan prefers suffering that is dull and boring, for me. And Satan creates constant misfortune for me, bad luck.
Satan is never helping, with anything, and is just using me to cause me to go nowhere, always, constantly. That's the effort, anyway, of Satan.

Satan is a parasite, and I'm the host, and I need to end it.

Satan is also a mass rapist.
Most prolific ever.

Satan had me as a target for my whole life. Satan has been murdering me, slowly, for my entire life.
Satan has never ever fucking left me the fuck alone.

I have heard enough from Satan to diagnose Satan, accurately, with many things, and to be able to share much of how Satan operates.

Satan is a schizophrenic narcissist with non-functioning Autism, who has me as a chosen narcissistic appendage.
Satan is using me in attempts for Satan to receive narcissistic supply from general existence.
So, narcissistic appendage might not be the right concept, to apply to me.
I'm a narcissistic supply object, who never can help anyone to receive narcissistic supply, and they can never give it using me, either.
Because I'm a sociopath.

>I've been trying to defeat and end Satan
Then get off your keyboard and go burn down a packed synagogue you ironic-schizo attention slurper.

>>322275
I'm none of those things.
You might, then, mean you.
This is a legitimate thing, that happens.
Challenge Satan yourself, watch how real the issue is.
Very.

I don't have Histrionic, so I'm not into attention.
You?
You are.
So is Satan.

I'm not at all schizophrenic, but you appear to be.
You suffer with the delusion of grandeur that you know what you actually know nothing about.

That's also not how you defeat Satan.

You're a narcissist looking to use me for narcissistic supply.
Good luck!
Never gonna happen.

Bad karma?
Seriously wizzies, even if you get a boner you should assume it was a demon and not yourself. This is the necessary resistance. Don't go along with their lies even if the truth is silent. Never do what they want.

I hate it. It's always voices calling me a loser or that I am stupid, etc. It's like my own negative unconscious thought processes from decades of being insulted online are being articulated automatically.
