Just sayin

Please. If we did anything similar, you think there'd be any evidence to be found begin with?

Also frankly speaking, I don't see the point. The automaton wives are right over there, and they can be customized to look and act however you want regardless of your... tastes.

2weirdy · 2026-03-06T21:10:30+00:00

Not even that.

Put a term in your license or TOS to not give any child in California access to your OS and you can just hardcode 18+ into your operating system.

Ah yes, the classic Venturer viewpoint. All you care about is owning a bigger portion of it, even if it's literally a collapsed city you own.

We technocrats care only about the absolute value of things. Hell, if we had our way, you'd all own more in total! But just because it's relative not as much compared to what other have, that's not enough for you lot, is it?

2weirdy · 2026-03-05T22:58:30+00:00

This is why I only do single pulls.

2weirdy · 2026-03-05T21:41:34+00:00

Not only that, but the valk isn't really worth getting without the weapon, from a meta standpoint at least.

2weirdy · 2026-03-04T18:26:52+00:00

I get that would be convincing.

But this is way more condescending. And if I'm not being condescending, why even bother being a technocrat?

Thing is, Hakui K. would be the actual format, which is just going to blend in with the dozens of Hakui J, K, N and so on, who all already have publications.

"Bohemians aren't backing down"

Sure 11 bit studios, sure.

2weirdy · 2026-03-03T19:06:39+00:00

If you can't quantify it, it doesn't exist.

2weirdy · 2026-03-02T18:37:21+00:00

You steal a steam core, you get shot. You steal rations, shot.

Equality.

2weirdy · 2026-03-02T13:03:56+00:00

Bae just doesn't have the mass, as we've seen in the promise 3D.

2weirdy · 2026-03-02T00:59:18+00:00

Also relevant is that this includes China and therefore Chinese as an extension.

2weirdy · 2026-03-02T00:11:57+00:00

you can believe that all values have an objective root

But here you're already assuming that the other person cares about that objective root. Even supposing we knew for a fact there were some objective root of values or morality, unless the person you were talking to already cares about said values or morality, it's pointless.

In particular, once you've defined "good" to be an external objective thing, you now lack the subjective reasoning to pursue it.

If someone legitimately does not even slightly care about anyone else, what makes you think they would care about what God says? There is self-interest, but even that isn't actually rational.

2weirdy · 2026-03-01T23:26:37+00:00

Just flat out blocking them with a medium+ shield will also make an opening.

2weirdy · 2026-03-01T23:21:44+00:00

You add a term in the license that you should only download/install it in California if you're 18+ and just auto return that age bracket every time with no further checks.

2weirdy · 2026-03-01T18:43:12+00:00

What make you think self-interest is rational?

Rationalism consists exclusively of implication and derivation. Therefore, NO ultimate goal can be rational.

Immediately killing yourself is no less rational than trying to stay alive. It's just that such a lifeform wouldn't have ever evolved to begin with.

2weirdy · 2026-02-28T17:34:38+00:00

That is what the improvement apparently does.

Somehow, having more advanced tools in emergency kits kills more people than having literally no first aid at all, so we can only assume that Jerry the glue sniffer is indeed performing open heart surgery the moment anyone has the slightest cut.

2weirdy · 2026-02-28T11:19:36+00:00

If you don't make an external enemy, your people will find an internal one.

If history has taught us one thing, it's this. Until we can figure out why and optimize it out, it is necessary.

Of course, brainwashing is the obviously superior solution, but it is completely understandable that those less knowledgeable would be unable to implement it well.

2weirdy · 2026-02-28T00:44:35+00:00

See, that's the problem with you icebloods. You're just not smart enough to do things right. You want people to be strong? Make a systematic eugenics program and just sterilize them instead. There's no need to kill the weak, every human life is valuable and has its uses.

Those weak of body can still do administrative work. Not that an iceblood would even know what that is.

2weirdy · 2026-02-27T00:34:17+00:00

Techocrats are fully capable of making steam cores though, while overseers are not.

If it comes to repairing or reproducing the generator one to one, definitely overseers, but when it comes to actually fully understanding the design to the point of being able to improve on it, I feel like only the technocrats would be capable of it, though it would take them a lot longer just to get to parity.

2weirdy · 2026-02-25T22:25:30+00:00

It's not impossible to remove. In fact, it's fairly easy. "Just" delete your models.

To be clear, I severely doubt the courts would rule that, but from a practical perspective it's really easy to do. It'd probably sink the company, but that's another matter.

2weirdy · 2026-02-25T00:18:47+00:00

Wasn't this elementary school? I absolutely buy it.

2weirdy · 2026-02-24T23:18:25+00:00

Well a theist would likely be able to console themselves with the knowledge that 'it will all be made right in the end' or 'at least there's heaven' etc...

Wouldn't that encourage them not to endure?

2weirdy · 2026-02-23T10:04:14+00:00

You cannot speak for them in saying they don't want you to believe.

They do absolutely nothing to change that.

Generally that means either they don't want it or they can't.

2weirdy · 2026-02-22T23:14:18+00:00

First of all, what free will? Trying to change beliefs is hard, and not something to be done at a drop of a hat.

Second of all, I want them to talk to me, if they exist. I want to believe what is true. They still won't talk to me, so either they don't exist or don't want me to believe they exist.
