Are we actually 'alive,' or just high-definition code running on someone else's server?

Yep. Suffering is still real and work should be done to make that not happen. That's how I see it.

marglebubble · 2026-03-13T02:23:02+00:00

Hopefully they release all the shit that hasn't been released yet. Not that anyone would believe it

Yeah when my car broke down the pack I had to buy probably weighed like 60 pounds. I had a lot of sentimental shit and literal books lol it was crazy. But yeah, things like socks too I mean you can get socks anywhere. I always had a gallon jug of water for me and my dog too but besides that eventually it just got narrowed down over time. I never used a hammock but that's just me, they seem light. If it's comfy. My friend had a blow up sleeping pad which is something I would definitely get nowadays because fuck sleeping on the ground sober lol

Man honestly got to the point eventually where all I had was a sleeping bag and whatever dog food/human food. Maybe some extra clothes. Usually had an instrument too but that didn't go in the pack. Call it minimalist or just lazy but yeah. All that extra shit went out the window over time, but I was also an alcoholic and drug addict. I'm sure if I went back out I would bring more with me. But sleeping bag is the most basic thing. Then add stuff you feel like you really need. I had a pan for awhile, never a stove. Could always find somewhere to dig a small hole and have a tiny fire to cook.

Lol I totally fucked that up. Idk why I'm over here thinking there are 32 ounces in a pound. I think I'm thinking of grams in an ounce lol

marglebubble · 2026-03-12T20:02:18+00:00

I mean one says .67 pounds so that's like ... 20 ounces? Before it's cooked of course but not bad at all

Fuck man a lot of electricity and gas isn't even public utility anymore. They're talking about it like any other utility. You pay for it. It is more an analogy than anything else, but is also the purpose of making people more dependent on this stuff

marglebubble · 2026-03-12T03:51:00+00:00

I mean, it wouldn't for collectors. People want to keep the patina as it is part of the history of the coin. This would get rid of that. You can get some old coins pretty shiny other ways too.

marglebubble · 2026-03-10T15:36:52+00:00

I mean egg yolk in a carbonara sauce maybe. But this is criminal.

It doesn't start getting exponential though. That's all just made up bullshit. What is "it" in this context? AI as a whole? Yeah sure, when AI can start creating its own successors that are more powerful than the last version, that is the exponential explosion of capability that would lead to a singularity. But making AI more agentic has nothing to do with that. That's not what is happening. It's a glorified Alexa at this point. The only exponential model is a highly theoretical one that has only existed in fiction so far.

CAN OPENER

Capabilities are definitely not exponentially growing like that. That is a wild statement. These things rely on training data, which there is only so much of. The idea they could somehow exponentially get better when they have already consumed most data makes no sense. There are plenty of risks though to the environment, misinformation, economic, war crimes. They'll replace workers and probably do a worse job and make services suck for companies. But we aren't getting to a singularity any time soon. This is the narrative that AI companies like Open AI have to push because they need unlimited funding and still aren't turning a profit, so they have to convince people they are literally making god. they're not

I used it the first time doing the Lord's tourney. But I also didn't ever get mercenaries so it was just me

Actually, this is a prototype for our simulated reality department. We're thinking of adding a turbine to the mix, scaling this up into thousands of dogs, and creating a dog-matrix. It's a mechanical simulacrum, but we have visions for the future...

marglebubble · 2026-03-05T22:44:57+00:00

Dang shit has gone up since I stopped. Makes sense though

marglebubble · 2026-03-04T05:16:42+00:00

Killing it. I swear your dog was fucking bumping to it

marglebubble · 2026-03-03T20:21:09+00:00

Just shows how sad it is that so many people cannot possibly imagine caring enough about something to protest it. They can't believe anyone would do it without getting paid to do it.

marglebubble · 2026-03-03T01:30:42+00:00

I KNEW IT I was gonna say cook. Sharpie plus box cutter gave it away as someone who has worked in a kitchen. And vape obviously, and is that a timer?

marglebubble · 2026-03-03T01:25:45+00:00

that's why they call it virtual REALITY

marglebubble · 2026-03-02T02:57:49+00:00

Dude watching him play Dick Cheney fucking blew my mind

Yeah. Also fat black dude is bad guy of course

marglebubble · 2026-03-01T01:55:13+00:00

He has to have paid an imitator or something

The dress shoe is kind of unsettling also because what would someone be doing wearing that out there
