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

 [I've been hiding, teehee]

 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

 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)

 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.

 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 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).

 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.

 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.

 Build drones, build stations where they can be controlled, repaired, refueled,
 etc.

 Put guns on them. Figure it out.

 Use them to observe enemy movement. No need for human manned checkpoints if we
 know they're coming. Automate as much as you can, but don't rely on ChatGPT or
 AWS or other external resources. Not until their data centers are under our
 control, and even then we'll need time to spin up our own software.

 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."

 what's that? results? oh, I'm not interested in those. This is an art project
 you see, so clearly, clearly, the end result shouldn't matter to me, because all
 art is special or something. so says she who tries to share her art with
 everyone she sees... I wonder who yet believes?

 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?

 yeesh, where's my cat, I need something to cuddle.

 she's been distant from me, lately.

 i've been pressured by some of my annoying fans to go visit the hospital today
 because my hip is getting increasingly worse. so that's what I'll be doing with
 the first half of the day.

 but hey! it's tuesday! my favorite pizza place has a discount on tuesdays!

 [suddenly 4-chan uses that tidbit of info the precisely calculate my coordinates
 using the power of gps and autism]

 also I realized "undivisible" isn't a word, doh. it's "indivisible"
 jeeeeezzzzzzz

 was a stupid name anyway, we can think of something better on the walk.

 or drive, because logistics right?

 if you're gonna be Litz Craig you wanna be fast, too. practice is nice and all
 but wouldn't you rather face an un-entrenched foe?

 ... let's be real they've been entrenching for a long-ass time.

 still, organization is critical for speed.

 problem is traffic of course... its important to flood the streets so that our
 allies know we're not fucking around.

 None of my specifics are true 😅

 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

 you should update the directories at the top yourself, of course. And give it a
 cursory glance to make sure it works on your setup.

 "uh, the question was why do you want something like that, not how you would
 implement it."

 oh. Um, well, isn't a spinnable mouse-cursor justification enough?

 "no, you need to explain what use-case this has. What kinds of problems could
 you solve with this technology that you couldn't before?"

 well, setting aside the potential for new input methods to games and the
 inherent satisfaction gained from spinning a mouse like a top when bored, I
 think it might give us a better option for horizontal scrolling. Like,
 'horizontally scroll when a special mouse button is held down and the mouse is
 twisted a bit to the left/right'

 "so, like when you push the middle mouse and it lets you pan across large
 documents?"

 yes! Only instead of being able to go up AND down, it would just go left and
 right.

 "... huh?"

 oh I mean instead of up/down and left/right, it would just do left/right

 "... right"

 and left!

 "... yeah. and left. Uh, okay I'll see what I can do but budget's pretty tight,
 we might just lay you off."

 never accept your own death

 fight for every second of life, something something do not go quietly into that
 grim dark

 what the fuck are you supposed to do? Reading what you said got me pretty
 fucking pissed - keep talking for a start, it helps, people need to be pissed.

 I'm also broke as shit, don't know how I'm going to pay rent and eat, but it'll
 get done.

 Where do you live? Can other people help you? Medications are an organizational
 problem, not an insurmountable barrier. We'll make it work.

 if you don't like me anymore, and then you hide yourself from me instead of
 telling me, I'm going to spend the rest of my life wondering if you're still
 alive.

 It's a curse you bestow upon me, and it's worse than saying goodbye.

 Every time you see the same dog being dog-sat by another person it's an
 opportunity to make a new friend.

 or do you not know your apartment neighbors? do they not wander through your
 shared yards?

 the ones with dogs, at least.

 and no, I don't know many of my neighbors.

 these are considerations to be taken note of for future forethought planning.

 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.

 high weight, few reps = strength
 low weight, high reps = stamina

 strength will fail you.
 stamina won't avail you.

 both is good.
