It’s more surprising to me that lesswrongers either haven’t, or have seemingly taken nothing away from it
e: on second thought, they might hate it because it is too ‘deathist’ or whatever


no, those didn’t use ai, those were ai, silly
who are you gonna arrest, a chatbot?
didn’t think so
/s, obviously


you aren’t, you’re making a similar arguments to the doomers. The problem they have isn’t that their chatbots are “hacking people” or whatever, it’s that there isn’t a lot of room to either escalate or substantiate their claims left and not a lot of time to find a way to be profitable, somehow
In a just world it is, but it kinda depends. A lot of countries subsidise dairy products into the ground for example, which can make it cheaper to be vegan except for dairy. This is of course still better than not vegan at all


these “some randoms” are OP, fyi


what? there are tons of movies that share the same name, that’s why you usually include a date


maybe look at servo then? that one’s also not getting vibecoded
how is this not posted as straight satire? Why is every one of these images cooler than the last?


so really it’s just a very effective LLM chain email


yea you just don’t have enough experience, I do bath salts every week and I promise you productivity gets a huge boost after week 5


the night circus is one of my favourite books of all time ever, very much recommend. If you like that the magicians by Lev Grossman feels very similar in a way I cannot put my finger on, though it does not really fit into this list.


evola, peterson, rothbard and moldbug on the reading list sure is something
also who the fuck is “bronze age pervert”
e: right, life was slightly better before I looked that up


we used to call that Mickey


anyone got any recommendations for an alternative vpn?


There’s also massive heatwaves in the Netherlands and Germany, there might be more that I don’t know about
e: in France, Italy and Britain also. Not in eastern Europe yet, at least not where I am currently


They’re fucking awful. I clicked through the xitter thread to someone with a milady pfp and they seemed to be shilling a crypto trading/sports betting platform called ourbit, which gave me a bit of a shock. I haven’t dug deep into it because I am currently hiking in Estonia, so it might have no significance whatsoever, but I think remilia is somewhat connected to urbit so there might be a connection there
e: typo


I looked at their online congregation(because there are no chapters in my country unfortunately) and they seem to be doing a lot of work on prison abolition and making prisoners’ lives more bearable. I might actually try joining them, and I will at least join a few of their meetings and such.
yessss AJJ mentioned, one of my favorite bands
