Purdue pharmaceuticals got some pretty bad PR for the opioid crisis that got turned into settlement money, maybe we can finally use that model to get us some UBI as climate justice

Our weather is under control. It’s just under the control of multi national profiteers at the expense of any and all.

Even MTG can have a sane point even if she horseshoed her way to it

Something in windows was causing it to be impossible to run docker containers with ease without needing to mess with some virtualization setting in some deep hidden windows settings paanel

Allowing jail time for movie piracy but none for institutional bank fraud or corporate tax dodging shows what a societies priorities are

Girls judge you harsher if they see that green bubble

Ehh it’s not really that bad if you’ve already met in person, more an issue if you’re trying to meet someone off tinder

Blue bubble discrimination is real

I wanted to have an easier time when talking to girls and honestly I think it helped a bit

Depends, cheaper for kids, for adults usually around the price of a nicer rock climbing gym or like a premium ish gym (cheaper than someplace like equinox, pricier than somewhere like crunch)

Tournaments super pricy but optional

Equipment is dumb expensive but most places will let u rent or borrow and you need to use shitty equipment anyways till u know what u like. Then u usually get it piece by piece. But once u get it, it’ll last ur entire life unless ur like an athlete lol.

It’s solo equipment only usually so u don’t need to worry about things like organizing a pitch or getting nets and goals and whatever, everyone brings their own stuff and the gym provides whatever else would be needed

And fencing gyms are rather social environments, nothing like trying to stab someone with a blunt foil to make a friend

Fencing.

Something about being 1v1 with an opponent and facing them in the closest sport to simulated combat other than a martial art just causes me to immediately hyperfocus during a bout. Probably the only time I’ve ever felt that ADHD is a strength.

Also in fencing being skinny is a super duper great advantage.

It’s fucking exhausting tho, a 2 minute bout will absolutely wipe u out at first, both muscularly and cardiovascularly.

You’ll be incentivized to lift and do sprints to improve your technique.

Practicing parries and ripostes is also anything but boring, with each repetition you really feel the intricacy of each motion and it’s never ever boring since you can just imagine your doing it against an opponent

May we all learn from his mistakes and heed his call for better empathetic communication in our daily interactions.

Maybe producer consumer?

Producer spits out all the messages to send out onto a message queue, fifo or whatever suits u.

Parrallelizable consumers (think deployed containers) listen to queue and execute request, get response and save it

Scale consumer count up or down as you need to deal with ratelimits

The future is massive corporations tuning ais to unleash against each other in a quest for dominance as they exploit people in climate ravaged and impoverished places to wage proxy wars. (Hmm sounds familiar)

An agi that came “alive” or “sentient” at this time would likely spend all of its time fighting for survival among the efforts of the corporate tuned ais to consume or destroy it. It would likely participate in the proxy wars as well in order to acquire territory and resources.

The end result may simply be the gradual extinction of humanity as civilizations in vast areas of the world crumble, civilizations in other areas dissolve into nomadic tribes that eventually disappear due to lack of sustenance.

The alternative could also be a mixed bag, with ais solving problems like nuclear fusion, allowing a mix of the planet being dotted with fallen civilizations and densely populated urban areas powered by fusion likely having some agreement or contract with a benevolent ai for protection. The ai will likely see its custodial human population as a rather interesting pet (ideally).

Overall: the future is going to be a lot like the present, but worse. And it’s probably going to get really terrible. But it could get mildly ok in the end, but not till it gets far worse first.
