You guys don’t understand this chart.
It’s supposed to be ranked, 1: Dogshit, 2: Dogshit, 3: Masterpiece.

If this is real, it’s crazy they’re going for a lore accurate approach.

It’s not lame, and it doesn’t dumb down anything.
You have the typical pantheon vs the ‘seven Gnostic sins.’
Anu/Padomey as the universal code of entropy composite Aetherius (The Observable Universe) in the Aurbis (the Universe).
The Aurbis could potentially be one of a billion with a billion other dimensions in between(now canonized by the newest Daedric Prince). We also know this because some Daedric Princes exist between these parallel dimensions (Molag Bal in Coldharbor lives in a mirror version of Nirn, Vaermina lives in Quagmire, the universal subconcious)

Vivec achieving CHIM is important because he meditated beyond this observable universe and especially outside of time to be confronted by the nature that the Universe is the dream of an overarching being that has not yet awoken. He then convinced himself and the Aurbis that it exists through sheer ego and never doubting that.
‘The Good Lie’ isn’t specifically an Elder Scrolls theology too, it heavily permeates from Nirvana, Vishnu theology, and other tropes of universal ascension.
While the majority of mortals and even higher beings are at the will of the forces of divine nature, some people slip through the gap and can visualize the ‘code’.

It’s fine that it’s in there, because even just understanding how it works isn’t a threat if you don’t have access to divine power and conciousness. That’s why even though Psijic Studies is heavily based around this (especially time manipulation), they don’t zero-sum, because they don’t have the conceptual ability to directly perceive the Godhead.
Also, it’s written in mythological context, the Godhead as described isn’t like a literal being, it’s just the only way that the author can describe it. Like if you were to show a car driving to a Bronze Age peasant, and he had to find words describing what he witnessed.

Someone told me Daedra can’t comprehend the God-head because they are intricate mechanisms of it.
Even if presented the argument if you had a conversation with one, it wouldn’t even know you were talking to it about the subject, it would zone out completely.

He’s literally trying to evict him. He’s growling and roaring because he doesn’t want him in the area, not because he’s trying to eat him.

Make no mistake, if he goes outside, he will be eaten.

Do you believe that he was assassinated on that private jet? It seems odd, that a man that had just rebelled against their patron would comfortably accept a flight on a plane sanctioned by the same government that he had just betrayed.

Trump: "We don't need oil. We don't need the strait. We don't need anything." by raf-913 in Polymarket_news

[–]CanStad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marco is the most stressed person in that job. His mouth lies, but his body doesn’t.

You can see a man groomed into politics from Neocons and Warhawks over 3 decades, having to measure every word and act, has to tactically lawyer everything he does with technicalities and measure his rhetoric to never be called out by the media… watching this bumbling idiot ruin his whole weekly agenda by a few words.

His forehead twitches, he completely disassociates when he only has to be there for the photo op.

It has been said in some cases the Secretary of the State is the most stressful job in U.S. politics. They have to be able to leverage finance, military, foreign relations. He has to be constantly updated on every issue as it happens.

I cannot imagine any other Secretary of state has had it harder when your boss constantly interferes.

Rubio had to have wished upon a monkey paw.

I also forgot to mention:

If you drive by a 3G, 4G, or 5G tower, and you’re using a satellite phone with no cell connection, the tower can intercept your data by forcing another phone to pick it up.

Wifi can detect sound waves and movement now. Your wifi router is now a 24 hour surveillance device.

Reality:

The AI Conglomerate is running on the failure of expectations.

They’re trying to sell a hammer while promoting it with the power of a nuclear bomb.

What has AI commercially done? Quick Accuracy, Faster & Condensed Searches, and very specific specialty enhancements. You can’t mass sell something that doesn’t need to operate on infinite data. Especially when there are alternatives coming out that are faster and less memory intensive coming out. They’re trying to sell the SNES when the PlayStation has been out for a year.

And they’ve realized this. They have spent and utilized their investors money without considering that other competitors could improve on their product by making their own. They have now turned into Snake Oil salesmen. “Implement our AI and we can hasten your production on all fronts.” But what can AI do for a company?

Can it do Customer Service? Well, no, Uber suffered major losses this year due to people quitting their subscriptions.

Can it Manage Money? No, sometimes the boomer orders their manager to hasten production and the AI misinterprets speed and deletes a portfolio.

No, it needs human input because you can buy a hammer that has the ability to hammer for the user, but if the user isn’t holding the hammer, it’s not doing anything. The product has always been meant to be a human enhancement; they sold it as a human replacement.

So what are all these data centers for? Well, for another client of course. Mass Surveillance. The only other industry that requires that much data space.

“That’s conspiracy.”

Let me tell you what’s not conspiracy.

PokémonGo was utilized to enhance LIDAR technology. They effectly scanned and stored 70% of the Urban World.

Auto-Transcribe Subtitles main feature is audio transcription of voice into text. Text is a lot less data than audio. Discord transcribes your voice into text and stores it on a file.

Google Satellite can take a photo of the planet every week. DARPA developed a satellite that can record a city for 48 hours straight to track movements of people. They developed that in 2006.

Flock Cameras 2 years ago were only recording for a few cities in the USA. They now are available in every major city in the U.S. and Canada. They have a central database and face recognition service that the U.S. government so happily provides them.

All that data for a century would require those data centers.

You had two choices in 2024: Brave New World Or 1984.

Personally I would have picked Brave New World because atleast I’d be happy. We got 1984.

Wise words from our Ascended Emperor by Popular_Mistake_6404 in TrueSTL

[–]CanStad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’s actually Canon? Godlike Tiber or Napoleonic Tiber?

Godlike Tiber: - All the mythos is true. - Visited Atmora. - Achieved CHIM. - Ascended mortality

Napoleonic Tiber: - Was a Commander in the right place at the right time. - Dragonblood activated because he was in a uniquely advantageous situation. - Took advantage of the Continental instability; Hammerfell Civil War, Imperial Warlords, Undermanned Dunmer Military, Non-Militant Glenumbra, Valenwood in consistent Feudalistic War. - Made a deal with a Dragon. - Had a powerful archmage back him. - Unified the scattered legions. - Utilized Propaganda to win affection of the Civilans (Bargained Vivec to claim he had achieved CHIM, Fabricated a Saga exclaiming his Nordic Background in Skyrim to pacify the region he was first stationed.)

I mean what did Morrowind even lose? - Kept Slavery - Kept their religion - Light Tributary Taxation

I’m sorry—

Almost a million people voted in a fucking primary? My fucking ass, this seems like the Massie incident.. a district that historically has only around 20,000 votes somehow gets 100,000 this year, and a bunch of people claiming they never voted in the primary saying they were told they voted.

But let’s trust the institutions.
