That not so fresh feeling…
Hi guy
That not so fresh feeling…
The polonium goes in the tea.
The novichok goes on the door.
Vance is in the new evil empire crowd and has been for a very long time.

Thiel, Musk, Vance, Yarvin, Masters and a cast of the worst people on earth have plans.

Consider that Peter Thiel bankrolled JD Vance and that he, musk, zuck, et al have essentially established a technocratic state within the new admin. https://www.ft.com/content/408fb864-5831-4b1d-beef-fd1966b3beed

The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk might support that PAC to the tune of around $45 million per month. Musk has denied that specific claim since, but the America PAC, which is run by Lonsdale, appears to be created to support the “PayPal Mafia” worldview — which includes (and indeed depends on) the bankruptcy of the United States.

At least PayPal had a suitably grand mission—the kind that post-bubble skeptics would later describe as grandiose: we wanted to create a new internet currency to replace the U.S. dollar.

I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.

And one final, very important thought:
The CIA took care of that with drugs and gangs.
Well… Just saw a news blip that said the DOJ wants to meet with her.
So, I guess, yeah.
And they punch like a bitch.
Lol.
Guy was calm as could be and bitchcop suckers him for absolutely no reason.
Guy took it like it was a kiss from bitchcops’ mom.
This is exactly how I got into Linux .
Had some… Life troubles.
Started over.
Needed computer.
Local community employment/outreach/social support place had a volunteer run computer place in the basement (they also had a bike place, and a cafe or two, and some apartments, and they were the best community org ever…).
100$
I bought 2 over a couple years.
I’m pretty sure they had xubuntu.
Over 10 years later I still have both. And I just put mint 23xfce on one and use it as my living room media player - dvi to HDMI projector.
I have no need for a lot of stuff. I make work what I can. And I keep it working as long as I can however I can.
More than likely the app package that is irritating you is called:
com.android.wallpaper.livepicker
Or something similar.
Without knowing your android aversion though, I can’t say for certain.
To check for the package using ADB
adb shell pm list packages -a live
This will show you all packages which have the word ‘live’
You can disable it using ADB using the command:
adb shell pm disable <package name>
You can also use a GUI tool like Universal Android Debloater
As always, backup and use caution.
The only problem with destroying capitalism is deciding who gets all the nukes.
If there is an afterlife, I hope his eternity is as a female disabled minority lgbt poor slave and the devil fucks him daily and he is forced to give birth to himself - dying in labor. Remembering each time. And not just remembering, but reliving the suffering of the millions he joyfully decided should suffer.
No, it’s the right one.
It’s just there are so many evil old fucks these days he’s not the only right one.
Oddly, I’ve never read Fahrenheit 451.
Read the speech. Spot on. And i love the writing style. Found the pace of my internal audio sped up and down with the way he spoke. Reminded me of Harrison bergeron in a way.
Will definitely read the book.
Yep.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again (it almost seems obvious, if not completely insane):
All the media we have been presented in our lives, has been propaganda and prophecy.
Behavior modifications and warnings and desensitization of what the future was to be, now is.
Some of it dumbed down the masses and washed their minds free of thought - hello marvel cinematic universe, fast and furious, reality TV, Facebook, idiocracy, etc
Some sent signals through the fray - Vonnegut, Bradbury, pkdick, Asimov, Huxley, Orwell, idiocracy, etc. But especially SciFi/speculative fiction writers.
On the whole, it seems all the dystopian futures have merged.
I sometimes half jokingly comment to myself 'I wish people would stop writing our future like this. Maybe someone could write us a happy future."
Or maybe it’s our collective consciousness fulfilling its collectively accepted belief that the future can only be what we’ve been exposed to.
After all,
“One hundred repetitions three nights a week for four years.”
Thought Bernard Marx, who was a specialist on hypnopædia.
“Sixty-two thousand four hundred repetitions make one truth.”
Don’t forget brave new world.
Oooh, look at Mr fancy pants over here being able to afford marshmallows…
(Can you bring some hot cocoa too?)
“I’ve heard over and over the word ‘elite’ being used. I think sometime that that term gets overused. But if you’re familiar with our Special Enforcement Bureau, they’re the best of the best,” Luna said.
Well, it isn’t going to be overused anymore.
The deportation of democrats and lefties and undesirables and the deaths of those cut off medicaid/care and starving kids, oh, yeah, and the nuclear war.
Back of the mind worry/conspiracy theory:
You really thing trump suddenly changed his mind about putin after 40 years? Trump arms Ukraine, Putin gets mad, nukes a blue state trump fulfills his promise “blue states will disappear from the map”, Q gets their great solar flash of 2025, and welcome to hell.
Breaking news:
We got nothing.
While there are thousands of worthwhile scandals, corruption, evil, and actually important stories to cover, we’ll just give you a blank stare until you’re lulled to sleep so you don’t panic because you really should be fucking panicking.
If a program is given a set of instructions, it should produce that set of instructions.
If a program not only does not produce those instructions, but gives itself its own set of instructions, and the programmers don’t understand what’s actually happening, that may be cause for concern.
“Self aware” or not. (I’m sure an ai would pass the mirror test)
People seem to have no problem with the term machine learning. Or the intelligence in ai. We seem to be unwilling to consider a consciousness that is not anthrocentric. Drawing that big red line with semantics we create. It can learn. It can defend itself. It can manipulate and cause users harm. It wants to survive.
Sometimes we need to create new words or definition to explain new things.
Remember when animals were not conscious beings just driven by instinct or whatever we told ourselves to make us feel better?
Is a bee self aware? Is it conscious? Does it eat, learn, defend, attack? Does it matter what we say it is or isn’t?
There are humans we say have co conscience.
Maybe ai is just the sum of human psychopathy / psychosis.
Either way, semantics are semantics, and we ourselves might just be simulations in a holographic universe.
