12. the text continues from the previous page and reads "if it's been ten or more years since they moved in, the site gets rebuilt. [wait, hang on, weren't we talking about html websites? when did houses come into the discussion?]  ... wait, what was I saying? Oh yeah the text is on a gray background, as interrupting as a scythe, with a yellow backdrop as if to represent sheer white-hot flame except not white the color of all colors but fire the color of all flames. the text reads "prince of the nehalim" in bright pinking blue, as in something completely foreign and unknown to you, and continues on to read in red "so many opportunities" as if life hadn't absconded, but instead of severed instead. "parabolas persist" in the flavor of blue, the color of space in a non-light polluted view.  "live life like you're merry, as do but a few."  do you want to make people feel better? or do you just want to make them confused? Neither, really, I'm trying to tell the truth. I'm seriously just struggling to find a way to express things that others clearly seem to be forgetting - I'm not an expert in other stuff! This is literally all I'm good at! Is it valuable? Maybe not to you, but I think it could be useful, or else I would covet it and leave it in disuse.  it's time is relevant, it's words fit into a context, so if you misunderstand it's past then it's probably because you don't have the records or the ability to process them of the time in which it was posted. What if things were de 10 ten. blue text on a blue background, as a calming and soothing influence, saying "it's okay, don't freak out, just think about learning lessons about stuff that *could* go wrong and think about how you'd counter it. just like any video game, there's a strategy to defeat any other strategy. the careful application of said strategy while using or applying your own capabilities is directly correlated to the conclusions of the task." meanwhile the listener is like "what the fuck" wait shit hang on lemme add a content warning:  right so the text reads "if you want your neighbors to know something, don't post it on the internet - put it on a post-it on the wall in a public place" like, your front door, or maybe the entrance to your building, or the parking garage near the mall, or maybe the grocery store, on a product behind the one in front. that kind of thing.  depending on who you want to see it, of course... people used to do this with library books but stopped because it's quite obviously a bad and rude thing to do, books are for record keeping of the status of humanity, through each and every one of it's forms. It's weird that they all have the same stuff, because they're designed for capitalism right? Why not share them based on availability, and keep as many different types of things as possible?  when nobody cares for them, how will we remember the countless books nobody reads? How will we understand that step in developing our culture if we don't have access to the con 9. the text begins to diverge at this point, on the left it reads "it's easy if you want some privacy, - all you have to do" and then is cut off by the introduction of red text on a green background, to evoke similar colors as the original thing it was interrupting but it's own thing nonetheless, and existing off to the side in tandem, so that conditions could not remain unaddressed. the text reads "they were betting on selling us space flight [with spaceflight sliding from one side to the other, like a rocket escaping the gravitic pull of the planet it surrounded] but we cared more for food and water" the second part, after spaceflight about food and water, is intruding onto the yellow's background, which was next, to represent a continuation of the previous thought about websites and HTML. it's frustrating for the next text, which is in purple, a confused and disoriented color. it continues from the original thought "is delete the website! Boom, no more html. but if they were listed (neocities sites on a map of the region" but map is emphasized with a different color, green the color of the land, and "region" is pronounced like "realm" or perhaps "ground" or even "directions" or "land beyond the horizon (if it even exists)") 11. I think. orange text on a green blue background, same background as the previous three pictures. orange text which contrasts in a way that almost calls back to the 80s, but not quite. a little too dirty, like the blue and orange decorations around highways in New Mexico. car smoke and tire dust'll do that, and it's not like it's easy to clean - right next to the freeway, c'mon! Wouldn't it be nice if we shut it down for a day or two? Unless you had very important business, solely self-suggested. if too many people used it on those days (when they were cleaning it) then they're supposed to follow through and identify if their need was too great or if they were just being an asshole about it because their bosses forced them to. basically like, family emergencies gets a lane, things that are crucial to a social event like no beer at a frat party or whatever, heck even if the girl you like really wanted to get laid. whatever the heck it is, if you deem it an emergency then that's fine. you can drive while the highway is being cleaned. just make sure you don't slip on the suds...  ... a while later, humanity realized they could just close one direction at a time and clean the next one next time.  what was I saying? Oh yeah the text! Here's what it reads: "every year, replace five percent [but read as %] of the homes and boom you're good - maybe even do 10% if things are going well - either way, as time goes on people can live in a house as long as they want - but when they mov

 what if all the AI advancements they're doing are just them building more
 hardware infrastructure in datacenters and not actually improving the software
 that much
wouldn't that be neat I think it would because it means once they collapse under the weight of their own ambitions that hardware's gotta go somewhere and knowing them they're probably going to ship it to south-east asia to be "recycled" (read: burnt with the metals salvaged) instead of selling them second hand because you know they can't really justify the business expense of selling stuff like that and besides what if some driver or something on the firmware was proprietary do you really want to pay techs to wipe every single thing off of them and plus who's gonna categorize and sort them according to their form and function that's just extra payroll and listen the company's not doing so hot anyway I mean we're literally shutting down but yeah sure we'll find a way to justify spending all that non-existent dosh so some hippies can feel better with their servers they didn't build or justify with their profit-producing capitalist enterprise that we've built with our own two hands well really the hands of everyone else but like, they're not actually doing the building the REAL work of course happens in board rooms like this one where we spend MINUTES and HOURS sometimes discussing how to get things in order and aligned to both of our goals because that's the REAL work that has to happen in order for stuff to get done, you know it's true yeah I thought so anyway what are you doing after this meeting wanna get lunch it's almost quitting time at 2pm

14. if you think about it, the shape of the universe is kinda like a cornucopia. or like, a funnel that smoothly increases in size. or like a waterslide ride where you spin around a bit before dropping down the center. sometimes affectionately referred to as "the toilet ride", even though that's just the wrong connotation.  we could have perfectly sanitary theme parks, we just... don't... because our priorities are on selling stereos and stocks.  anyway, there's several purple lines, the color of blending blue and red, both colors present in america, cast upon the gray background of the undecideds, collectively engaged in a mutual exchange. there is a blue upside down silly snake, this time with bright red aviators, and beside it is a scarring wound. some break in reality that is unfortunate, but part of their interdisciplinaries, so don't worry one bit about it. life may seem far from strange, but your lifetimes of finite portrayals and fanciful adaptations to the expressions of your own emanations both confirm and delight our attentions on you. Surely you are not aware, of our love and perspective [fair], but we still love you from afar. how could a star not cherish another star? It's time that's our only moat.  the reason the universe appears empty of life is because it's impossible to travel under the blanket of spacetime. through gravity, up and under our shared reality, out and beyond to another.  rockets pierce reality, which they didn't expect L O L who would have tht 16 I think? don't really remember the last one. anyway bright green background with a quite interesting transition fabric display - something textured and rippled, like the connections between a torn piece of paper that's been stitched together bit by bit with a careful and measured hand. the text reads "neocities sites just need to be attached to an address, and given a useful search browser that uses openstreetmaps." this is displayed on a background of brown orange and yellow, while the text is written in salmon. the result is the text (which overflows onto both backgrounds) is equidistant from both background colors, just in different directions. We know instinctively that purple and blue are similar, but a blind person might not. these words are given a framing as if they were placed in a 3d game engine upon a poster or billboard.  in dark blue upon the bright green background, blue the color of calm rationality and green the color of aliens from old timey media who live on the moon. well, the ones who just want to chill and have a beer with you, maybe listen to your stories about life in the strange world called humanity, but not the kind that they tell us about. like, it's really hard to get here, so why would they want to mess it up when they got here? such a strange thought. anyway the text reads: "openstreetmaps is a website that lets you view the addressess of people who live nearby you. why you'd want them, who can say. the point is that the functionality already 13. here's where it starts to get spicy, and I apologize if it's too extreme, but words come forth *from* me, not by my perceived designs pronounced deh zeens.  top left - yellow, the color of sunflowers and familiarly painted houses, cast upon a strange pink background - pink the color of sisters and bubblegum. yellow lines draw a shape, of which it's perspective is hard to configure - but most would consider it to be the shape of a mobile, hanging above a crib, with a kite shaped object (or perhaps multiple individual artifacts) suspended above a target. could be an object, or possibly a human subject, but the end result is that the maximized rays of the individualized emanations of that particular pieces of object, cast forth onto a pre-programmed piece of toast.  ... I don't know why I said toast, what I mean was that you can enchant people and things by exposing them to the wavelength waves of radiating objects. things like, marcelline's t-shirt or excalibur or the shroud of turin or the constitution or some other precious object. if you place them in orbit around an object, their expressions will send forth to fulfill their manifestations upon the willfully absorbing object.  have you ever wondered why objects tend to congregate? like, computers flock to server mills, trash piles to landfills, and people will wander the length of the beach. all things are gravitic, function, type, characteristic, motivations, empathic feelings, all congregate around one another. 0 codes 15. picture of an upside-down triforce placed in a rack like a computer storage unit. cyan text with pink background reads "this is the only thing that challenges me"

a picture of a mouse cursor which has a user's profile picture next to it with their name and address so you can more easily remember who you're trying to be. a bunch of random text that I thought was artistic layered on-top of the previous picture which was a mouse-cursor with a user's profile picture next to it so you could see who you're supposed to be.

 something I made a couple [time] ago
A visual of two hard disk drive designs, current design and proposed design.  the current design features a rotating platter where memory is magnetically stored and a "read/write head" (which the author mistakenly labels as a "laser")   the proposed design features many heads all arranged in a spiral outward such that many parts of the disk can be accessed at once. This hard drive design seems to be designed for parallel access to data.

 made this a couple days ago. [thread] 🧵​ part 1/20
the entire picture in one. 2. red text on a gray background. "everyone in the country has an ip address. Often more. Imagine if every address (physical) had a website.  according to the top two google search results, there's somewhere between (in orange) seventy five million and one hundred sixty million registered physical addresses in the country." 1. a crudely drawn picture of America, with outsets for hawaii, alaska, and some unidentified part of the carribean. there is a text label that says "america" uncapitalized. 4. a picture of suburbia where all the houses in a line are connected, essentially acting as a "node rail" that could deliver packages or messages. run on open source infrastructure of course, something that everyone could see and appreciate. contribute too, if they'd like, but as long as the power rests solely in the hands of the people who use it, then nobody can take it from them. if that power is ever contested, then measures must be taken to overcome it. such is the nature of defence - if someone attacks you, you avoid their attacks and develop a strategy to defeat them. in doing so you both are learning, you how to avoid their attacks and them how to patch up their weaknesses. then, in an ideal game, you'd have your turn on offense, and you'd overcome your opponent bit by bit. a slightly different strategy, but one they must adapt to, and teach you how to be countered. in doing so you both learn, and that is valuable.  anyway, the text on the image says "each address gets an HTML page. whoever resides at that address can edit it." the text is in the same color as the background, as if it was punched out of a piece of paper like a ballot.  next text is black, as in shadows, like the decisionmaking process of the people who decided the 2004 election between AI. Gore and that other guy. "when they move, they can register with the post office (or company, if done through capitalism)  next is the text "alternatievely, they can only ever be edited at libraries" in green & blu

 OH
 
 this right here is so crucial
noblesse oblige /ō-blēzh′/ noun      Benevolent, honorable behavior considered to be the responsibility of persons of high birth or rank. The honourable obligation that is the responsibility of those of high rank; in American English this often includes the expectation of benevolent actions such as helping those less fortunate. The obligation of those of high rank to be honorable and generous (often used ironically).
