Those who do not study history are doomed to recreate neopets.

Btw, for the people who don't know, you can turn off the AI previews https://udm14.com/ (don't use this site to search, click on what is umd14 and edit your search urls to include that).

It was amusing to see wikipedia keeps a list of fileformats and wordperfect was among them. Which seemed the correct factor of wrong, obscure, but not obscure enough that nobody would notice.

Starting this fight and not 'stop counting at zero you damn computer nerds!' is a choice. DIJKSTRAAAAAAAA shakes fist

(There is more to it in a way, as he is trying to be a Dijkstra, and changing an ingrained system which would confuse everybody and cause so many problems down the line. See all the off by one errors made by programmers. Damn DIJKSTRAAAAAA!).

Thanks!

They forced the article to be taken down, there are archive links, when im back home (and if I dont forget) ill scroll past my reskeets to find the link.

Yeah sucks as we should be very clear it is visa/mastercard and the terf group influencing them who is to blame.

(yes im using the sneerthread to write down bad jokes).

"An AI? But using that you could find a cure for cancer!"

"But I dont want to make a cure for cancer, i want to generate powerpoint presentations. Look it just made this quarterly_report_june_july_jan.wpd file for me."

Gonna be really fucked if we finally discover that the people doing the actual work were true believers who didnt even get paid well. And all the money went to altman/infrastructure costs. (I could look in financial statements to figure stuff like this out but erug effort).

The rules did not mention the ferryman couldn't use the stargate on each bank. The rules exclude teleporting, vut a stargate works via a different method.

failed my saving throw.

The irony is completely lost on them.

So not only has Yud failed to properly align AI, he also failed to align the AI aligners. Time to burn down the sequences and start over.

The AI is right with how much we know of his life he osnt really dead, the AGI can just simulate hom and resurrect him. Takes another hit from my joint made exclusively out of the sequences book pages

(Rip indeed, what a crazy ride, and he was all aboard).

Followed one of the links which game me a very "is yud ok?" Feeling : https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/PCfaLLtuxes6Jk4S2/fighting-a-rearguard-action-against-the-truth

(Talking about the way it is written not the actual content, which seems to be 'looks like I was wrong, need to rethink some things and check my assumptions' but using thousands of words that make it sound like is having some weird mental episode).

E:

One is Zack Davis documenting endorsement of anti-epistemology ... [Links to articles removed] ... to placate trans ideology even many important transgender Rationality community members overtly reject

Euh ok. Always good when people bring up 'trans ideology'.

Im working on a device that allows you to do that over the internet. (Rip bash org, at least they didn't put you in the ai slop).

What is esp interesting is how they make this event sound bigger than it is. The venue is small, but that makes the 'it was sold out' show up sooner (also less hard to find enough people who would chuck down 200 bucks for this shit), but then they make claims about the livestream numbers. (which are going to be hard to check) etc. Weird sort of radicalization way to make people think there are more people in their movement than there are. Bit like going 'catturd2 has 4m followers!' like those numbers mean much online, esp on zombie twitter (see also John Rich has 150k subs on yt, but averages to 10k plays per non-music video at a quick glance (his music songs do very well however at millions per views (the one song I listened to was also about how Jesus was coming back soon to punish all the evildoers))), so people like the music+message in the music, but not when the guy actually opens his mouth for other stuff, all very vibes stuff. But also just how few actual music is being played vs people making nonsense talks about America/whatever. (and also listening to his live performance, I don't think John Rich is a good musician (at least not live, the yt clips of him are pretty good, so either he was having a bad day, or autotune stuff).

And it wasn't that hard, not like I spend that much time on it, it is quite interesting in a way, to look at these kinds of movements and try to see past their propganda and notice who they actually reach and what they do and say. And considering the people they attracted it feels very much a last attempt from a dying generation whos sun has set. (but that could also just be because younger people aren't as easily scammed into giving away 200 bucks for this).

ow god forgot about all the tabs I had stored in that one. (thanks btw, but I already use something like that, I just need to clean up, finish things, or decide not to finish things).

I can answer that, as turdstock 2024 is on yt, it seems this john rich guy talking about how much he likes catturd, begging for donations (while saying fema is bad), some people spending a lot of time saying nothing (I'm skimming past and there is so much nothing being said), and some country songs (which is not my genre, did notice that for one guy the mix was off, making the music/singing bad to hear, so well done tech team there (they fix it later but still)). And then I saw the audience (they also said millions watched catturd 2023, which considering this vid has 9k views, and there are like 100 people in the audience I doubt (checked turdstock 2023, which seems to only be on rumble 223k views. So lol, double lol, saw the same fucking artists (and the for the same guy the technical issues, poor guy) (and wow rumble sucks compared to yt)). There actually also don't seem to be that many songs, think half the time was people talking. Also, No Catturd appearance from what I can tell (E: he is there, he just doesn't do anything it seems, he prob speaks a few minutes I guess). Also really weird bit about how somebody send a mean facebook post and facebook went 'are you sure this is mean' and they went all 'zuck was never punched in the face on the playground ... the founding fathers ... there was a patriot girl ... [5 minutes of talking] ... when those redcoats moved on us ... etc (this bit took 20 minutes between songs)'. There is also a guy praying for various things on stage, angry raised catholic noises

But yes, can't judge it on the music, as an event it seemed boring as fuck, too much talking, not enough music, boring audience (none of who were holding drinks), weird political message. Rather watch Kreator for 4 hours, which considering some of the speech clips I hear, seems to be the message they were going for. Somehow the geriatrics in the audience are the most dangerous people because they only want to be left alone (??). No lightshow, no stage presence, no skulls, no fireworks (this is both a comment on the lack of fireworks, and a general comment on what I saw).

Anyway, seems my initial feeling of massive uncool stands. Also seem they reused the slash cat AI image for 2025. Nope different cat, just same AI slop shit.

E: "Ticket Price: $199 plus taxes and fees." WHAT Wacken metalfest costs 333,00 € and that is for a whole weekend (and actually has a real Slash).
