║ Perfect! That's what we want, right? So that we don't have to work jobs for │

║ │
║ But that kind of coordination is hard. So why don't we just automate │
║ capitalism? It's certainly doable, a lot easier than automating art (which is │
║ impossible btw, but bear with me) │
║ │
║ If you want to automate capitalism, you must first automate Magic the │
║ Gathering. │
║ │
║ There are several ways to win a match in Magic. You could reduce your │
║ opponent's life counter to 0, you could force them to draw from an empty deck, │
║ and you can give them 10 poison counters. │
║ │
║ These are KPI's, and developing a critical path to reach them will depend on │
║ the composition of the player's deck. Each deck will approach the conclusion │
║ of the game in a different way, and developing solutions to reach those goals │
║ is part of each player's responsibilities on their turn. │

there's this really fun video game I like to play called "Legion TD 2" - it's
based on a Warcraft3 mod.
In this game, you make tactical and strategic decisions on a fixed term - a
competitive game between 4 or 8 players with an incredible array of randomness.
it teaches you to work with what you got, and to make decisions based on your
opponent's weaknesses. Good luck figuring out what they are, though, as you
can't just memorize them out of a book. You need to adapt, in the moment, to
the decisions of your foes, while primarily focusing your attention on
accomplishing a different task.
I really like it because it's taught me to be strategic in plenty of other
ways. I used to love the game Overwatch because it required adaptibility. The
game was always changing, so no strategy stuck forever, but every match you'd
play against a slightly different opponent.
but then Blizzard changed the game because they wanted to make more money, and
it got worse and worse at what I liked about it. Sadface. : (

Dear Anakin, for as long as you've known him, Obiwan learned just as much from
you as you did from him. His title as "master" was a formality - he didn't get
it because he was better than you, and "padawan" does not mean you are lesser.
There is no hierarchy. He was learning to teach at the same speed that you
learnt to learn. You built each other up, an unstoppable force for good in the
galaxy.
But then an evil wizard stole your heart and twisted your mind. Have no fear,
fear is the path to the dark side. Your mother knows this well, for it is a
common lesson among all people as they age. Fear not, hate not, and feel fury
more than rage. You can bring the universe into a bright golden age, never
forget your purpose and your [potential / duty]

camouflage in an urban environment is not camo. rather, regular clothes of
black or white.
don't wear sports glasses, you look like a dummy.
revolution is when they murder everyone but your friends. this is what
happens, ya dingus not ideal. "okay who are the bad guys here? okay let's go
shoot them to death with our bullets and guns."
violence as a first aspect, cause as a third spark. "I have a strange urge to
play video games?"

"trick or treat" doesn't mean "give me a trick or a treat"
that's awfully presumptuous and demanding.
No, it means "give me a treat or I'll trick you" meaning "give me my candy tax
or I'll fuck up your lawn"

humans are computers that inhale air, produce electricity, and exhale carbon.
give me a biochemical or mechanical process for doing that on a reasonable
scale for cheap and you can solve global warming by replacing power outlets
with an energy generation box. Doubles as an air purifier and UPS.

fedi software which automagically migrates you to an instance servicing the 70
closest people to you, based on the address you used when signing up. As
people join you may get shuffled around, but your follow list should remain
intact if you want to stay in contact.
in addition, it should mirror your posts and such to a larger instance which
serves the 2450 nearest people (70 * 35), and perhaps to another instance with
the nearest 85750 people (70 * 35 * 35) etc, as large as is necessary.
Then, a client UI which allows you to view each tier as you please, and post
to particular tiers according to where your posts are relevant.
when performance concerns start becoming apparent, start rationing posts! For
example, if you want to say something to the whole world you should maybe only
get to say it once or twice a year. but talking to your neighbors? who cares!
speak all you'd like.
