a paradox game where you play as a species colonizing the earth

150 million years of evolution, just... snuffed in an instant.god describing the
fastest mass extinction event[s]
"holo scene? no this is the real scene. what, did you think computers didn't
reality? no no these people are real they're just made out of different stuff to
their computers. so they interact and use themselves to each other's will ->
wow that was funny it almost felt like something was telling me how to feel"
the more voices you hear the greater the bright bold future calls to you.
"here's how to explain it to executives - your company is non-functional until
you incorporate processes and decisions that lead to a sustainable future. this
is impermissable, the earth was designed to receive a certain amount of heat
from the sun. plants absorb heat because they give you shade. oil is made out of
thousands of years old plants. if we burn all the plants, then no oil can be
produced. we'll be extincted

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 wonder why someone hasn't yet written a "meta-package-manager" which installed
from many different sources and correctly configured each installation to be
able to efficiently find exactly where the requisite libraries are installed,
even if they're installed for a different system. Then, when running, every time
it encountered an error, it moved one more dependency over to the native package
manager until eventually everything is in order.
... or something like that, truth be told I'm a junior

do you ever wonder about how much heat is absorbed the plants and leaves? Kinda
makes me think that they're keeping us warm at night. The desert is much colder
than you'd expect, and so it the moon, or mars, or any other sufficiently
devastated forest habitat.
(plains are my favorite biome, please don't take them away with your stupid
climate change, they're one of the most at risk)

would be nice if you could get suggestions for which fediverse instance to use
depending on the AI analyzed contents of your posts. Could be a way to mitigate
the social cost of banning someone, by saying "hey, we collectively are going to
pool our computing resources to generate an expensive and detailed report of
which other instances you could join." that way it doesn't feel like you've been
kicked out into the cold.
or literally just... have someone suggest one, idk. Basically it's like "hey
you're in the wrong place, go to one of these instead" instead of "[expletives

there are very few professions that are naturally more suited to a schizophrenic
than a normal person.
One of them is beggar, another is prophet, and a third is "massive
disappointment" but that comes with the territory.
have you considered that maybe you're just a loser
yes I have and I decided that all I can do is my best, and if my best loses then
what else could I have done? Wait for help? Yeah. I do that too.
It feels like an encirclement, and all you can do is hunker down and wait to be
relieved. Or fight to the last, it's up to you. I hear they brutalize the skulls
of their prisoners after executing them, so, I don't know about you but I'm not
surrendering. Not gonna roll those dice.
you are in fantasy, again
sorry. Should stay here, present, in the moment. Like when I sat out on the park
bench for like 30 minutes straight without moving a muscle last night. Or when I
sat and contemplated the nature of a bog for two hours last september. Or when I
woke from a dream that turned out to be life.

a screenshot of the Goron's Ruby from Ocarina of Time.
A smooth, flat stone comprised of two materials. The hardened outer shell is
thick with spiritual energy, and it radiates light the way a rippled piece of
silk folded over a malleable piece of gold.
the inner jewel is crystallized like the purest ice, but a bright shade of
crimson white. it seems to radiate an aura of affection and the yellow-gold
back-piece can be seen peaking through it's mostly transparent core. (think like
fog or thick mist or steam or smoke).

people think the military is mostly a 50% split between democrats and
republicans.
but really a soldier is a soldier, and people are democrats and republicans.
there's three things, and more if you further subdivide by roles.
like, a government technician would work on different machinery than a corporate
one, but they're really doing the same kind of work.
there's no difference between people, no matter what they do, and yet the ways
that our lives progress is quite different. everyone has their own story it
seems, and there's nothing wrong with that.
gives me hope against the far right, who seems to have forgotten it's role as a
cog in a machine - not a cancerous consumption of the rest.
there is honor in their ideals, but Trump represents none of them. Something
else is festering there, a disease known by many names: "far right nationalism",
"white supremacy", "etc etc", "[redacted]", and many others.
the GOP must be reformed. It must denounce fascism. It must do it now.

All people are good at heart, let's get them what they need for a start.
Some people won't change. Some people are doomed to the life they were given.
It's not their fault, but it is their responsibility, and if they want to be
free, they will respect the rights of others.
These rights we claim for each other are rights that must be taken away from
those who would use them to harm others.
To defeat evil, deprive power, supply kindness, in that order.
No-one is beyond saving, but it is their choice to make. A choice ungiven is a
chance untaken.

good morning!
if you need to design an agentic programming ritual toward a goal that needs
numbers, try expressing the number in analogy rather than empirical value.
"it should be red enough to feel a sunset"
"there's enough time here to go for a walk around the block"
"the spartans had enough soldiers to fully block the narrow causeway,
essentially forcing the persians to grind down their number to the death. most
battles fought in that time were fought until morale breaks - this one was to
the mortal end. hence, why they are im-mortal."
"the smoothocity should be as soft as a brushed metal refrigerator"
"the chocolate had 56 grams of sugar in it. it was a lot of chocolate, enough to
place in a standardized container."

I can't cancel my internet because I use it to work, which almost pays enough to
cover rent, and nothing else.
It's hard to avoid spiraling when you run out of money. Every time this happens
to me I start feeling things
like... am I good for society? Society doesn't want me, clearly, because I don't
have any money. And currency is how you measure demand, right? It's literally a
measure of value.
But then I think of all the homeless and poor people and, like... I value them,
so what if they don't have dollars? It's literally just paper. Or bits in a
mainframe that nobody knows how to program anymore.
So if they're valuable at least to me, yet me, with my 67$ in the bank and 127$
internet fee, is not valuable to me... Then what's the discrepancy?
I'm not trying to be hard on myself, it's not my fault that I bleed money, but I
still feel terrible.
It's like a common cultural persuasion, if you run outta cash you better kill
yourself fast.
Fuck that. Oops cursing mentioned, one s

whoever at OpenAI that came up with those tiers doesn't understand the science
behind it.
consciousness does not come about from exceptional capability - after all, a
child is conscious, and they're useless in a fight.
consciousness comes from tiny bits of awareness given a story and life. that's
it, it's not too complicated, but they're building something else.
like, a complicated analytical engine of some kind.
I feel like the people their press release was for is the kind of people who'd
give them money, not the kind of people who'd help them build it y'know? like
"what the investors don't know won't hurt them, besides we're making progress"
right

An image means nothing, for it is just an icon.
like a picture of a floppy disk corresponding to writing memory from RAM into a
hard disk platter, even tho those have three different tasks, so too does my
icon gesture at something.
On the other hand, art is necessarily divorced from it's meaning the moment it
leaves the pen and is written to paper. So there cannot be a meaning in my flag,
not one that I define of course.
The observers of the artwork, of whom I am but one of, can possess their own
ideas of what it means, of course. Here's mine, feel free to take your own:
Sea, land, sky. The crimson of a fading light, and the bright beginnings of a
new day. Man(kind), with our vivid red internals, stands astride the border of
the ocean and the surface. We walk where we will, perhaps into the black depths
of the cosmos beyond, but forever do we anchor ourselves and owe allegiance to
our earth and our star. Sunlight casts crimson light upon our externals, as our
hearts do beat through time.

a program that bundles another program and compiles it during it's normal
operation in order to derive a certain purpose which is quickly overwritten in
memory, so you can't get the full picture of what it does.
like, a fast moving function that's never really clear in it's purpose.
because it changes a lot of things that don't really seem to matter,
like a constant wrestling match over the nature of the computer program.
which would you rather? a dance, or a death-splatter?

give me a biochemical or mechanical process for doing that on a reasonable scale

to improve your "cat-petting" abilities, try to imagine that the wall in front
of you is the most interesting thing in the world - stare at anything else
besides the cat, and look at them in your periphary. Occasionally you can look
back, but the idea is that this way they will be able to look at your face
without painful eye contact.
cats are autistic - they don't look at you unless you're looking somewhere else.
most people stare at cats when they are engaging with them, and totally ignore
them otherwise.

truth is, you can absolutely make selfishness justified, both ethically and
morally. you just need the right incentives.
however, the incentives that would lead to such a case are not the kind that
accrete power to the powerful. they are the liberatory kind, that give us all
the liberty to be selfishly interested in our own communal good.

I'd say "content warning: fear-cursed-if-true-not-politics" that way people who
had "Fear" or "cursed" on their filter list wouldn't see it. Things that are
commonly content-warning'd are also commonly content-filtered by people who tend
to be the biggest beneficiaries of healthily designed content-warnings. so
putting keywords in there that filter out people who don't want to see intense
or damaging things to their psyche can avoid it more easily.
