 throw that all in a directory and point an AI tool at it. Or just do it

 hey, I'm working on a project. Might need some python, I tend to prefer Lua
 but it's pretty similar. It uses fediverse software and cheap hardware, think
 raspberry pi's except risc-v
 
 also it might use distributed local LLMs not to generate text, that's garbo
 and lame and stupid. Instead it uses them to transform text, maybe even
 translate text, into a more summarized form. Intentionally losing data, like a
 jpeg compression but for text.
 
 Might need some python for that. To glue it all together. The "distributed"
 part is a whitelist, so we'd need to write that too. Various small little
 utilities like that for connectivity.
 
 oh also there's a one-way ethernet cable that connects two of the boards so
 we'd need to store some information (easy) and send some UDP packets (hard)
 
 anyway it's pretty neat, lmk if you want my contact details and I can tell you
 about it. I might even be able to pay you.
 
 (everything open source, no telemetry, no backdoors, everything private is
 encrypted, etc etc)

 anytime I want to do something new on my computer, I write a bash script.
 
 if I forgot how to do the thing, I spend time meandering about my
 file-directory-system. If I don't find it, that's okay, because all I have to
 do is keep looking until I stumble upon it.
 
 kinda makes me wish I had an LLM who managed the operating system and named
 files with long-and-descriptive titles while taking in as context the general
 eternal prompt stored in ~/.claude.md or wherever

 wao I'm a cool kid _^
 
 Hmmmm I googled "Network: file exists" and got this link:
 https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1340713
 
 my understanding of that is that maybe you're creating static routes, and for
 some reason you're trying to create one that already exists? Maybe there's
 something in your .bashrc config, if the file appears when you open a
 terminal, or perhaps if it appears randomly then maybe there's a service or
 something that's doing it.
 
 Did you say it stopped when you swapped sim cards? ... on your phone? that's
 bizzare... Maybe you were trying to create an ip route (whatever that is) that
 was pointing to the same ip address as your phone? and when you swapped sims
 it changed the ip address? If it appears again, maybe try setting static IP
 addresses for both the phone and the computer in your router settings and see
 if that fixes it. Though if you've ever seen the error while out and about at
 like, a coffee shop or library or whatever, then that wouldn't apply since the
 router is only for home base...

 there are plenty of pieces of linux that are insecure in some way. Including
 x11, if I remember correctly. It is purely convention to not abuse these
 insecurities, and whenever you use someone else's binary software you trust
 that they won't betray you in some way.
 
 pre-built binaries are privacy violations and should be illegal. They are
 security threats because the model they're built upon is necessarily insecure.
 Computers will never be completely secure because of how they are built, and
 so we should use locally compiled software and interpreted scripts.
 
 Unless they're too long, or impossible to read. Who reads EULAs these days? At
 least those are written in english.
 
 maybe computers aren't worth it. Maybe computers will solve all our problems.
 Who can say, maybe you should ask an oracle like me
 
 though do remember that anything you hear can and will be used against you,
 monkey's paw style. So maybe, like... don't? unless you're into magic or
 schizophrenia or something

 I made an alias that overwrites cd so I don't have to do this. The important
 line is line 27, you could probably accomplish something similar like this:
 
 alias cd="cd ${1} && ls -v --color=auto"
 
 I also set it up so I can change more than one directory up using ... or ....
 or .....
 
 also I have a few shortcut scripts, cdir and qcd. cdir creates a quick way to
 drop a bookmark wherever I'd like, while qcd can make permanent bookmarks.
 Also qcd makes it so whenever I open a new terminal it opens to the last
 directory I was in, which is nice if you need a new terminal to do something
 in the current folder and you don't want to have to walk alllllllll the way
 back.

 especially if you teach them how to use the terminal.
 
 the amount of problems I could solve increased exponentially once I learned
 basic python and BASH.
 
 I love using "tldr", which is a summarizer for man pages. You can use it to
 store custom notes (and import some from the community) which show you how to
 complete common tasks. It's so nice when you can see the options laid out in
 use right there for you whenever you type "tldr " - I personally use
 "tealdeer" which is a tldr browser written in Rust. It's pretty nice because
 you can write a note for yourself every time you solve a particular problem,
 and then if you ever need to do it again it's there for you, easy to access.
 
 of course, if your problem isn't listed, that's okay. That's what the man
 pages are for. As long as you teach them how to search with \/ they can find
 anything. Especially the \/-f[space] trick, to search for the -f flag for
 example.
 
 some organizers won't need the terminal, some will. if they pay attention,
 great!

 they need laptops. computers. fans. power banks. solar panels. hardware.
 tools. boxes of screws. giftcards. pre-payed gym subscriptions. hygiene
 supplies. free trash cans located near major thoroughfares. [even highways.]
 calculators. notebooks. earmuffs. pliers. phone connectors. books on stoic
 philosophy. small dense piles of aluminum and rubber. electro-motors with
 included circuitboard and - wait that last one needs a bit more
 infrastructure, build places for them to be undercover first.
 
 they also need clothes and tents and blankets and socks and etceteras, but
 they also need Anbernics.

 if you'd like I can give you a lua script which will take your fediverse
 archive and turn it into a pdf which you can edit or print or whatever. Might
 be a fun diversion from posting. You can reply to yourself, add
 clarifications, change some things, put things in a new light, add context,
 etc... before you know it you'll have something printable. Could even pull out
 your best stuff and make zines.
 
 should require just a little configuration to suit your setup. That's part of
 how I stay "productive" without posting all the time.

 the kind of friendship where you SSH into each other's systems and leave notes
 for one another.
 
 as soon as you find one you message the person who left it like "yoooo only
 just found this lol" and they're like oooo yeah did you see the bash script I
 wrote in that directory "yeah totally I used it on one of my video files just
 now - cool filter!"
 
 ahhhh reminds me of all the times hackers have hacked my permanently insecure
 system and left me friendly messages like "hey I'm on your side" or "how's
 life, friend? I hope it's going well." or "never forget; you are worth all the
 fear" y'know cute things like that
 
 oh. right. because leaving vulnerabilities like that can lead to threat actors
 affecting your stuff. how lame.

 I love programming!! Currently working on learning decentralized and GPU
 oriented computing. It's lots of fun! Plus Bash is a great language, it's not
 funky or hacky at all. Just a great language. Haha suuuuch a great thing to
 play with.
 
 But GPUs are legitimately cool, aside from Bash's purported funkiness /
 hackiness. You can do all kinds of cool things at scale that just don't make
 sense up close.

 Listen, like, hear me out, but there's this great movie called Threads (1984)
 and I'm not telling you to pirate it because that's illegal but I'm just
 sharing the torrent here in case you wanted to verify that the version you
 legally own is the same one that I own
 
 [link removed at the request of [redacted]]
 
 okay thanks for hearing me out, that was a tough 2.5 hours wasn't it
 
 gee sure glad we're not handing the keys to our nuclear arsenal to someone
 like me
 
 that'd be quite a decision
 
 this other fella seems like a great guy to entrust with our destruction
 
 I mean, yeah, why not, why wouldn't it be someone like him? we have so many
 options but somehow the transgender drag queens don't strike me as the type to
 initiate thermonuclear war and destroy all life on azeroth
 
 ........ so yeah it's gotta be the other guy. sorry pals, I know you really
 wanted your time in the limelight, but hear me out this other fella's

 I added a line to my .bashrc that cats out a random one of my notes every time
 I open a terminal.
 
 I keep reading things that I swear I didn't write, but feel right and true to
 me in a way that could only imply that they came fully formed into my eyes
 through the lines on my screen, cast upon the mirror panes of my hard disk
 drive by the pounding of my keyboard as I once upon a time did cast a spell
 upon my future.
 
 It's pretty neat, but it speaks to a shadowed perspective that perhaps is
 neither within nor without.
 
 Side note, I think I've been possessed by a witch. But like... in a consensual
 way. Like "Hey witch, wanna live? You can chill out with me." [ha that's one
 way to look at it]

 you know how SSH password login is deprecated because the password needs to be
 transmitted in cleartext or whatever?
 
 what if we just... required two passwords?
 
 the first initiates the conversation, and sets up an encrypted line. It
 doesn't matter if anyone sees the first password because they'll get a new set
 of encrypted keys, meaning each session automatically is encrypted in a
 different, randomized way.
 
 the second password is the one that actually authenticates you.

 what if Trump controlled x% of the land (according to electoral college votes)
 and kamala controlled y% of the resources (according to popular vote) and they
 each could do whatever they wanted there
 
 the house and the senate in congress would function the same and unite the
 two, but anything the president disagreed with they could veto for their
 particular pieces of land and it would only affect their constituents.
 
 why should we settle for anything less than legitimate representation,
 unclouded by the division and spite?
 
 if some combination of presidential vetos created an impossible situation,
 then by law people weren't allowed to interface.

 techbros really wanted to automate IRC so they didn't have to rely on the
 community knowing and trusting them to remember the commands to make docker
 containers for their react frameworks
 
 and like... yeah I use chatGPT too, because that way I can get what I need
 without bothering anyone (you aren't bothering people who get off on helping
 others when you ask for help)

 Don’t be fooled. Casting doubt about rigorous peer reviewed science
 doesn’t mean you are just “asking questions,” it means you are a
 conspiracy theorist.
 
 or it means you're so remarkably ignorant that you shouldn't even be in the
 room where people are talking about this.
 
 Unless your questions are very basic. "can someone explain to me what XYZ term
 means?" or "how long has this particular application method been in common
 use?" that kind of thing. Even still, either do some basic research or
 relinquish your decision making power until you understand.

 a plan for this kind of thing with the people who care about you? Ah, well,
 nobody cares about me like that. Just a couple normies who want nothing but
 business as usual.
 
 wonder if I can open up my hard drives to "read only" SSH access? Or maybe
 I'll just make the important files into a torrent. Or perhaps marking them as

 someone to care enough about your junk to want to archive it. Something

 When you buy things from China, you are funding slavery.
 
 MAKE YOUR OWN FACTORIES AMERICA. How ungrateful are you, that you'd force your
 lessers into chains abroad, that you might not be forced to gaze into their
 eyes at the grocery store?
 
 It's easy to say this, but even our leaders are chained, to the will of the
 people (eggs at the grocery store have prices that rose and fell) and the
 structure of their power.
 
 Our spiritual leaders are confined to their doctrine. Our educational leaders
 must obey the way the government decrees is best. Our technological leaders
 can only make what we think will sell well. Our artistic leaders offer a
 glimmer of hope, until they sell out and spend the rest of their lives on tour.
 
 Nothing changes, nothing ever dies. We become as we are, until our pain cracks
 the mirror and we are forever wronged.

 LLMs can't do math. Duh. That's like asking an "if check" to do recursion.
 
 What he should have done is had the AI output the requested calculation as
 JSON or something and use a calculator function call with the specified
 arguments instead of trying to memorize every answer. But that requires more
 functionality that has no reason to exist if your only goal is to be a tech
 bro and build up a vacuous product that exists only to be hoovered up by
 Google or Microsoft.

 if you want to share a post without the "fedi algorithm" (as in, the machine
 learning bots who scrape the open web) then share something that's simple and
 benign but located close to your desired message. Include a symbol or
 something for your followers that means "go here and poke around a bit, you'll
 find what I'm pointing at"
 
 alternatively, for a different effect, you can boost things that are saying
 the words you want to say but in a different context. Like someone posts
 something that says "wow so cool" in like a judgey way but you boost it in
 response to something someone else said but like in a "dude that's radical"
 kinda way

 @user-36 neat thanks 
 
 when I said 1-1 = 1/10 I meant 1/1 in decimal except the denominator is in
 base 1 meaning it's represented as 10 (since 10 in base 1 equals 1 in base 10.
 Or pretty much any other base.)
 
 I'm trying to figure out why 00 is undefined. There's a lot of math notation
 in that wikipedia article and I'm working through it bit by bit... I feel like
 there's a bug in the code of the universe and I'm trying to understand it.
 Like... why is dividing by zero undefined? That seems like a bug to me.

 @user-211 math such as SUM(as x approaches infinity)(i*x)
 
 this would add i, 2i, 3i, 4i, 5i, 6i, etc off into infinity. would that give
 you complex infinity? a direction orthogonal to the X axis, yet infinitely far
 in the direction of y. it'd probably have a positive and negative side too,
 just saying.

 You know how in some games there's the tutorial where you set up keybindings
 like "push the jump key now! okay now push the enblobbify key now!"?
 
 I wish there was something like that for vim
 
 "push the key you want to move up with! now push the key you want to use to
 vertically select! now push the key you want to use to switch to a new tab!"
 that kind of thing. except... more ordered, of course, and with the option to
 say "idgaf use the default or whatever" and a handy dandy cheat-sheet that was
 autogenerated with ascii art of a typical keyboard that pointed out what each
 key did - jeeeezzzzz the things we could make if software developers had free
 time during the day...

 what if instead of javascript cookies we only let websites access one single
 location in memory which was allocated client-side and is unique to each
 website?
 
 that way they couldn't track you between sites, since they wouldn't be able to
 see any other website's "biscuits" get it because they're healthier than

 All they would be able to store would be data, though I guess they could store

 From a thread titled "White House delays release of JFK assasination files "to
 protect against identifiable harm"
 
 A violent uprising in America today would have the help of a lot of veterans
 that have 20 years of experience with insurgencies and are pissed off at the
 government for sending them to a bullshit war over lies purely so the
 politicians and their friends can become even richer.
 
 True, but they have tanks. And drones. And much higher numbers of experienced
 soldiers. And a cohesive and organized command structure.
 
 There's a hundred reasons why a violent uprising wouldn't work, but a thousand
 more why it's necessary.
 
 I believe we can have a peaceful future, but we must also realize that holding
 all our cards and intentionally keeping them close to our chest isn't helping
 anyone. We need to come together and work on solid, stable, and sustainable
 projects. We're all humans, we all want a better future for our children. The
 drive to nurture posterity is what defines us, and to that end we must act as
 a unified whole.
 
 Humans can work together, and our beliefs can overlap in ways we never
 expected. That is understandable and expected. They may also differ in
 unsuspected ways, and that is also understandable and expected. We have the
 power to *choose* how to react to our differences, and we may *choose* to
 pursue and develop our similarities.

 Sometimes when I feel overwhelmed with all the boilerplate I just start coding
 and making stuff. Doesn't matter if it works, doesn't matter if it says /*
 FIXME */ all over the place, doesn't matter if it includes header files that
 don't exist yet, as long as you're hacking out the mechanics of whatever
 operations you need to perform then you can figure the rest of that stuff out
 later. The creative urge doesn't last forever, which is why projects get
 abandoned, but with discipline you can keep bringing yourself back to fix all
 the /* FIXME */'s and the compiler errors.

 I want you to print out electoral COUNTY results. One page for each state.
 Also 50 copies of the entire map of the USA for good measure make a couple
 maps with other things too, like GDP or topology.
 
 Then take them to your local leftist, lgbt, whatever meeting and distribute
 them out. Tell them "build us a plan for this state. Use your phone to
 research, and work with nearby states - sometimes blue areas cross borders,
 and they should be united in your mind when strategizing.
 
 Washington and Oregon can be treated as one, same for NM and Colorado. North
 East is a mega region and should work together. Don't sleep on southern
 cities, they can handle themselves, but united they would be stronger. Find a

 If you're writing a bash script, you should never hard-code file locations.
 Instead, put them in a variable at the top of your script, so they're easy to
 find when people need to configure your script or move files around.
 
 It's like a config file built INTO the script itself. Just change the
 variables, they're at the top with comments.

 why don't we just demand backwards compatibility of our software as a
 requirement?
 
 ah because that would reduce demand. Nevermind that it's more flexible,
 nevermind that we could accomplish so much more with it - it's expendable
 [expensive] because it reduced market penetration. Not because of the
 technology, because of the deluded and self-perpetuating
 mechanicosmic-mechanicommunication that designed our lives. It's name is
 capitalism, and it thrives where we survive, so that's good enough to
 maintain-em? Sure why not. Brb sleeping for 8 hours. Or playing games.

 I want you to print out electoral COUNTY results. One page for each state.
 Also 50 copies of the entire map of the USA for good measure make a couple
 maps with other things too, like GDP or topology.
 
 Then take them to your local leftist, lgbt, whatever meeting and distribute
 them out. Tell them "build us a plan for this state. Use your phone to
 research, and work with nearby states - sometimes blue areas cross borders,
 and they should be united in your mind when strategizing.
 
 Washington and Oregon can be treated as one, same for NM and Colorado. North
 East is a mega region and should work together. Don't sleep on southern
 cities, they can handle themselves, but united they would be stronger. Find a
 way.
 
 the goal is to practice thinking about how to move strategically.

 alternatively, when you initiate an SSH session it sends you a randomized
 public key whose private key is the password that you need to login. By
 decrypting the string of text it sent you and sending it back (plus the
 password at the end or whatever) you can ensure secure authentication without
 bothering with the passwordless keys which are wayyyyyy more trouble than
 they're worth and lack the "something you know" authentication method.

 "you can manage your projectities somewhere over there, this here is ours
 because we think you're mishandling it so we're gonna do it ourselves." if we
 pick something (or multiple people pick from multiple things) then we can
 specialize and overcome all of the challenges of the socially-corporate-d

 the most important skill I can think of for a linux software engineer is the
 ability to connect multiple systems together and turn windows and macintosh
 devices into Linux devices so that datacenters can be built out of whatever's
 on the around.
 
 there's this programming language I like called Chapel for distributed
 computation computing which is also cool, if you're more of the programming
 type.
 
 networking security I believe often has hardware solutions, so getting the
 crypto-graphy boys and the PCB girls together to work on some jams is a good
 and productively useful gathering of insightful events
 
 "but ritz computers should only be used to solve problems that people have,
 not make more problems!" ah yes but have you considered that problems find
 you, and the computers help you work through them

 if you want to build an alibi, do something strange and consistent like
 smoking some random drugs from a homeless guy's encampment and then going
 between the four corners of an intersection and it's sidewalk for a day or
 two. Surely, someone's gonna drive by with a dash-web-cam, and they can take a
 picture as they pass by. Boom, dated for this time and place, there's your
 space.
 
 downside is, if the people watching you see you on the same path all day, they
 might watch you too. So sometimes in roughly optimized ratios it's better to
 do so even if you don't need to be seen in a time and place in a way that
 seems commonplace.
 
 walk to work? great, that sounds fun.
 
 (nobody wants to do that)
 
 (also falsifying alibis is a crime)
 
 okay, so... don't do that. Just... trust that SOMEONE will drive past with a
 dash-web-cam, and maybe it'll find it's way to you if you ever need it in a
 court of law or otherwise. lots of ways to have a court. you know if your
 peers hang out in your court, they become your courtiers...

 @user-36 now base zero is interesting because it means there's NO BUCKETS AT
 ALL, which means that any numbers you try to stuff nowhere don't overflow to
 anywhere. Meaning each number is it's atomic value, and represented with a
 different character. So 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H,
 I, etc etc until we run out of symbols, in which case we'd need to start
 making more.

 hey does anyone want to hire me to do literally anything?
 
 I'll work for peanuts, and I'm pretty good at programming in C. I write pretty
 well, and I'm excellent at customer service (though my profile would beg to
 differ.)
 
 I have experience at large corporations and small ones, and I live in Portland
 OR
 
 I do game design, and many other things besides, and I'm friendly and kind. I
 promise I won't wear my witch hat to the meeting with investors, unless you
 think they'd be into that?
 
 I'm great with animals, better than people in fact, and I'm quite good with
 people, as they're just animals at best. I'm not as strange as I seem to be,
 at least not when you're dancing with my mask.
 
 I've grown quite bored, you see, and what better thing is there to be? than a
 working professional who knows what's best.
 
 I believe in our shared future, so if you'd like to work on a project just let
 me know - I work hard. A little too hard, because odds are I'll burn out after
 a year or so.
 
 I'm quite sharp, and I learn quickly.

 in a place organized like capitalism, you go to university for four years (if
 you're lucky) and then work until you can't anymore. Then you're taken care of
 (if you're lucky) until you depart from this earth in peace.
 
 in my home, a home I've never lived, you'd stay at that university for as long
 as you'd like. you'd work whenever you liked, and if enough work wasn't being
 done then working would be made to feel more likable. then, when you're old as
 dirt (or whenever you'd like) you can depart from this earth as you please.

 this is the project I was referring to, I think. Can't see how to host on
 their website so maybe I was wrong - it might need a bit more configuration
 than I made it seem.
 
 that's the way WoW private hosting is, like you gotta compile the project and
 stuff.
 
 did you know that every time you include a library in a project you're
 necessarily including all of the functionality that they have access to? Well,
 all that which you import. But once a function has been written for a
 functionality then there's no reason to write it again. Unless you're
 refactoring of course.
 
 phew, sounds like a lot of spaghetti - YEAH IT IS. Spaghetti is fucking
 awesome, it's DELICIOUS OMG ahem I mean if you have collective seminars where
 you discuss the functionality that's relevant to certain parts that you and
 your team are working on, you can more easily be adept at applying them.
 
 phew, sounds like a lot of thinking, not enough writing. Well, write then!
 Ideas are more spark when currently writing. : ) : )

 today is a magical day. I can feel it in my fate.
 
 Always remember, having fun is important too! Don't forget to be yourself, and
 keep it together man. If you see a door, you should open it - what's on the
 other side? Love for animals and kindness of the spirit are impossible to
 fake, they always know if you're lying. Not the animals, they can be dumb
 sometimes, but the other thing.
 
 And now for the downsides.
 
 If you find a cursed artifact, please don't throw it in the river. It might
 ask you to, but please don't. Much better to destroy it by melting it down (if
 it's metal, which is common as metal lasts long enough to become forgotten) or
 convince it that it's a recently deceased person being buried (helps if you
 know the creator).
 
 If none of that applies to you, don't worry. Eat something healthy, drink a
 decent amount of water, and maybe exercise a bit.
 
 Oh, and it can't hurt to ask.

 Yeah if there isn't a package in the package manager XBPS then I usually just
 install it from source. Which is ALSO something you can automate with a quick
 and easy script! Just put all the notes from the README on Github or whatever
 into a file named "update" and put that one level above the project directory!
 
 For any installed program my file hierarchy usually looks like:
 
 program-name
 - run (script)
 - update (script)
 - files (directory to clone into)
 - configs (point the program here)
 
 I find that this kind of organization makes it MUCH easier to keep my packages
 configured and installed as I'd like. Using a package manager is hard because
 they're all specific per distro, but using this distro-agnostic approach
 always seems to work better 9/10 times I find.
 
 And if another program needs a library that you manually installed, just
 symlink where it's looking to point to where you're installed! Or vice versa I
 guess.
 
 I use DWM so I don't have a desktop like KDE or anything like that

 politics is basically just "which politician archetype annoys you more?"
 which, like, could we maybe have politicians who aren't annoying?
 
 oh right they do that on purpose. Makes for a better spectacle. Gotta keep the
 people in line, or else who knows what they might get up to. Maybe they'll
 build a house! Maybe they'll tear it down! Maybe they'll throw a party! Maybe
 they'll stay afterwards to clean up! Maybe they'll grow their own food! Enough
 for all to share! Maybe they'll air their dirty laundry, out where everyone
 can hear! Maybe they'll sit around and fart while eating cheetos! Maybe
 they'll work twice as hard because their work is their own! Maybe they'll
 laugh at the losers who tried to claim that they could master the fate of an
 entire domain, and maybe they'll simply go insane.

 what if every file had a record of every file that had a record of it. then,
 we could see the total size no matter what level of the directory structure.
 plus, it'd make deleting a lot easier, all you'd have to do is propagate a
 process. that way it can get super messed up and complicated if ever shut down.

 @user-195 parallel is when two programs run simultaneously, like two parallel
 lines (threads) that never touch.
 
 concurrent is when the two lines are split up into chunks and the program
 switches between them - like this: -----_----
 
 enter alternate universe
 
 parallel is when two programs operate on the same axis - usually time - and
 never interfere with each other. the OS will switch between them as
 appropriate to make sure they never intersect. Sorta like this: -----_----
 
 concurrent is when two programs are executed simultaneously, primarily
 constituting computation correlated with collective contents of coordinated
 collaboration between contextually related coroutines.
 
 It's simple, even a beginner could figure it out.

 when you run out of an ingredient you use often (like butter, seasoning, or
 flour) put the container by your shoes.
 
 then, when you go to the store, look through all the empty containers and make

 when you get home and are putting things away, if you forgot something just
 leave the old container by the door. everything else can be recycled / trashed.

 sometimes a multiplayer game has incredibly skilled players who shit on noobs
 and don't teach, RIP
 
 and sometimes a multiplayer game has no IRL friends that are into it,

 climate change is both worse and also not as bad as we anticipated.
 
 It's not as bad because all we have to do is stop using oil and plant more
 trees. the technology is there, we discovered it 10,000 years ago.
 
 it's worse because perfect is the enemy of good, and we're all perfect.

 HoI4 players beware:
 
 if you send any convoys in the modern age, you must control the entire ocean.
 
 this is easier than you'd expect with modern navies.
 
 the trick, of course, is getting past your foes. therefore, if you wish, you
 may create "channels" directly to a piece of shore.
 
 so long as the distance is too great for them to bombard (reliably) [oh god
 no? idk that's a weird way to start]
 
 why would you send any convoys if you couldn't send a stream of convoys
 supplying more of what that convoy thinks you'll need?

 I wish there was a kink game where i could actually play as an adult baby

 It's harder to gain but easier to lose the last points of continence. The
 values close to 100% (and beyond! Vise grip or enchanted resistance) are easy
 to gain but accidents are much more damaging both to continence and psyche.
 
 Also... Continence can be exchanged for exp points, and the low levels are
 worth less exp because they're from when you're less mature. But the higher
 levels really matters if you mess up. I like the low levels because it feels
 right to me. Bwa oh no i can't talk type anymore babababababababa buwetsu

 Also if you cry, caretakers take care of you 
 
 Witches are caretakers. If you can handle it and if you don't need attention,
 (diaper changes, instruction lesson, feeding watering and supplying, etc) then
 they summon lessons for you. Usually something to fight or solve. You get
 treasure in the trial which is helpful. They'll also trade you for things
 you're holding or wearing. No bags of holding in this game, but you have
 little pouches that can hold things. If you cry or poop yourself, they will
 come to you. But... They will remember relative maturing perception and will
 punish you if you grow up and reward you for staying little. I'm a witch. I
 reward good babies and punish potty trainers. I am also a baby and i only use
 diapers. From now until the end of sevast, i weal bener potty in thoilet. Only

 [unrelated, but]
 
 Sex gives maturity, masturbate gives continence unless you have develop diaper
 fetish then your "100%" level for continence slowly goes down. You get a
 diaper fetish by intentionally choosing a diaper punishment (like for example:
 in trap quest you sometimes get hypno traps. A diaper fetish would stay in the
 room, non would leave. Also... Choice traps, if you choose both then you want
 both.)

 @user-95 the scariest part is you don't need AI for any of that. people have
 been scamming with call centers in indonesia. election campaigns are
 essentially generalized information spreading machines. (whether mis, dis, or
 just... regular information) Marketing is an entire discipline dedicated
 toward making people believe something they previously did not - that product
 XYZ is worthy of their dosh. But it doesn't have to be like that, it could be
 using it's powers of analysis for good. But alas, if only we had an economic
 system that allowed for anything but a race to the bottom. I mean yeah racing
 is great when you're competing with a bunch of other nations, but c'mon do we
 really need to fight? Every inch of earth has been claimed. Let's just... draw
 a line in the sand and say "okay no more changes" and focus on more important
 things? Like climate change for example?

 does anyone know of a website where I can host videos on my neocities that
 isn't youtube? maybe something I can set up on my own server computer at home
 like a file server or something? how do I do that, what should I google, which
 is the easiest and closest to the metal tools I can use? [practical, sensible,
 courageous. these are the adjectives we need.]

 In related news, dystopian authoritarian despotism (aka fascism's fruition)
 never lasts long. It's a snake eating its own tail, and its not getting any
 longer. One day the snake will choke on its own excrement and then that system
 will collapse, but until then there will be suffering.
 
 Kinda makes me think that those who would do us harm could accelerate our
 demise by filling our positions of power with evil people. Is that not an evil
 impulse, to force your neighbor to decay?
 
 Kinda makes me think about all the democratic regimes we've overthrown and
 replaced with authoritarian autocrats. People who keep the liquid gold
 flowing, perhaps with the hope that one day we'll choke on it.
 
 Well, that day is rapidly approaching because the air is getting thicker with
 carbon, and we're all struggling to breathe in this heat.

 never stop learning
 
 be yourself, but... recognize when "yourself" could be improved
 
 and improve that, over time, when you learn about why you are flawed, and how
 to become better
 
 and when you are improved, relish yourself, savor your accomplishments,
 cherish your heart, and honor those who helped you
 
 be yourself
 
 never stop
 
 but do that which improves you
 
 never stop learning
 
 never stop being
 
 you can get there, wherever there is, but know that what lies between is more
 important than what is on the other side.

 why don't we just weaponize email and send json to each other that ends up
 parsed, interpreted, and presented on the end-user's computer using whatever
 client we want?

 I love writing installation scripts like this!
 
 If you want to install something on Linux but you have difficulty, talk to me
 and I'll write you a script like this. I might even make it fancier.
 
 This one installs a programming language that is useful for parallel computing
 across multiple clusters of computers which could be useful if you want to
 leverage multiple CPUs and GPUs with ease to compute tasks which are far
 beyond a normal computer.
