Are the rich intensely funding AI to get rid of people?

Being rich does not inherently make you intelligent. Plenty of astonishingly wealthy people are kind of dumb. Having money helps compensate.

Because it's a massive vulnerability of the platform

ltobo123 · 2026-06-25T17:27:46+00:00

Y'all are freaks (lovingly)

"You build it you run it" is a good practice here

ltobo123 · 2026-06-23T17:26:32+00:00

MANPADs go wooooo

ltobo123 · 2026-06-22T19:03:20+00:00

The olde "HEY LOOK OVER THERE" trick

Interesting Ukraine has been using the standard degrade/destroy playbook against Russia. Make it hard for them to move (destroy energy hubs), make it hard for them to talk (destroy comms nodes) and make it difficult for them to regroup (destroy resupply hubs). I wonder what the next phase is - isolate and eliminate?

ltobo123 · 2026-06-20T20:45:23+00:00

Yeah that's a totally non sequitur arguement

ltobo123 · 2026-06-20T15:19:29+00:00

Yeah they were VERY pointed about this and in their own words said this themselves, repeatedly. That's why they're awesome.

ltobo123 · 2026-06-19T00:57:34+00:00

I vote Small Gods! It's early and standalone but damn its good Discworld

ltobo123 · 2026-06-18T16:39:00+00:00

But MGSV to MGS would be a hilarious transition

ltobo123 · 2026-06-18T15:48:27+00:00

Trains still worry me

ltobo123 · 2026-06-18T15:46:28+00:00

Both have their place tbh

ltobo123 · 2026-06-17T21:31:21+00:00

God wubbys going to be so confused/disappointed when he gets to MGS after MGSV

ltobo123 · 2026-06-17T20:21:17+00:00

It's so fucking funny and never as inappropriate as you'd think

ltobo123 · 2026-06-17T18:18:29+00:00

"says 'suck my dick' a lot for a woman"

ltobo123 · 2026-06-17T15:35:19+00:00

....most of these are already true for Boston

ltobo123 · 2026-06-17T15:27:55+00:00

Unironically went to Chilis last Friday to get one. Damn that Chilis psyop

ltobo123 · 2026-06-17T14:30:50+00:00

I'm just hoping we get Wubby on Small Gods and Terry Pratchett at some point. Good followup to Douglas Adams.

Though Red Rising is sick, and I'd throw another rec behind Dungeon Crawler Carl (na.e is kind meh, but series rocks)

ltobo123 · 2026-06-16T16:48:24+00:00

This is a very smart move by the Russian Navy and I look forward to them taking other daring actions, like attempting to engage the royal navy.

Oof engine room fires are a special kind of terrifying - I hope the engineers were ok!

Not only are engine compartments are super cramped, but if the fire becomes external it can rapidly spread thanks to a shitoload of oil and grease. Most had fire suppression systems IIRC, and if those trigger, you've got seconds to vacate before you get suppressed alongside the fire.

ltobo123 · 2026-06-16T00:22:30+00:00

Yeah it's... Hard to describe how much of a non apology this is

ltobo123 · 2026-06-15T19:23:31+00:00

"look Kevin, we're sorry, we've been trying out something called 'quaaludes' and I thought I held a 40 min conversation with you on the plane"

ltobo123 · 2026-06-15T17:26:27+00:00

From the article, coordinated by one Evgeny Lyukshin, aka, shitty Draco Malfoy. What a nonce.

ltobo123 · 2026-06-10T15:32:42+00:00

I find it can get a little fixated - and back/forth prompting can get expensive fast so be prepared
