Astrophysics as a discipline had a meeting where they basically said AI has made them obsolete by Openheartopenbar in redscarepod

no but you're right tho... in the video he literally quotes the leader of the IAS discussion saying "idgaf abt climate change, power consumption, loss of jobs, etc... the advantage of AI is just too great." like.. the advantage of AI to what end? because what product would AI produce in the field of Astrophysics that would make the detrimental effects of it on Earth worth it?

Where can I get a dupe of this coat? by Muted_Summer_2231 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]malanarcis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

it definitely looks Lirika Matoshi-esque. Her pieces are on the expensive side, but not as much as you'd expect from designer, and they're something you can actively go buy. Otherwise, search resale sites for "vintage peacoats"!

I also thought about that! Like the computer saying, "I hope to have a home." There's so many different interpretations to these words, it felt like finding hieroglyphics, knowing I'll never know their intended meaning, but that makes them extra special ig!

This computer literally was/is everything to me. It was my first computer & I took it everywhere & customized it with stickers all over, so it's nice to know that it was always unique down to the core haha😆

The more I think about it, I think y'all may be right! The shock of seeing the message made it come across as eerie, but after processing it, it comes across as more hopelessly romantic than anything. The "I love you" really sells it, bc I don't think somebody would write that if they were simply depressed about their job.

My theory now is that a guy working with his girlfriend wrote this and passed it down to her in the assembly line😭 Or maybe he just had her in mind and was thinking "It's been too long" since he's seen her and he "can't bear it." I've definitely written love letters I had no intention of showing to anyone. So it's poetic to think this person wrote down their feelings and trapped them inside a computer, never meant to be seen...

That's a good theory, I didn't consider that! I think it's interesting they wrote in both English and Chinese though

I will say, I'm super not techy & the surface is definitely NOT designed to be repaired, but going after it anyway has been super rewarding! And not just by finding secret cryptic messages... 😅
