I’m not polite to chatbots because I don’t use them in the first place.

Hell yeah rule by dickgirls

Really manning that steel bro. It must have taken a lot of effort not to put the echo symbols on (((DEI shibboleths))). Out of spite, I’ll now proceed to somehow incorporate the idea that white people cause earthquakes into my worldview.

I dunno, how’s the “I’m not Donald Trump” platform been working out so far?

the hawk tuah teapot is actually hysterical which is how I knew the poster was taking the piss

Oh, but you see the axis powers only ever wanted to conquer most of Europe, North Africa, a bunch of islands in the Pacific, most of Southeast Asia, Korea and large parts of mainland China, which the allies would have been completely fine with. Nothing suggests they would actually go for full conquest victory. What is a “Lebensraum”? Is it a type of cheese?

Unusually shit take on WW2 but not an unusually shit take from Moldbug. Just the usual level of shit.

What kind of a cost is low enough that eight billion people can pay it for their legitimate communications without burning the planet too much, but also high enough that a spammer with a botnet won’t bother to let other people’s machines pay the cost?

I don’t think that simile quite lands. Hindenburg worked as expected until its sudden catastrophic demise and hydrogen caused both the function and the failure. Zero knowledge proofs neither make cryptocoins work nor are they the reason why they don’t work.

A more apt comparison is something like saying levers are the technology behind this perpetual motion machine.

The design incorporates levers that fail to make the device function, but it’s not like levers are useless because of that.

You gotta be careful not to joke in a way that’s indistinguishable from real shitcoin spam 🙃

She Licking my County till I back away is this anything?

I just bought a humanoid robot servant! I also got a machine that lets her do chores in my house.

And as the same channel demonstrates, there are ways to fly without any wings at all

Man, it’s really true what they say: the West can’t meme.

Look at me, I’m a libertarian! I think fiat currency is scary because I don’t understand what social constructs are! No step on snek, unless the snek consents of course, which it should be able to do at any age!

Oh pray tell, what is the potential you saw in the technology? Was it the part where every transaction costs immense amounts of power and time and resource usage grows superlinearly with respect to usage? Or the part where the monetary system can be controlled by a few oligarchs with the most computing power or market cap of the currency instead of full nation states? Or the part where making payments comes with a built in fee, a bit like a tax without the upside of funding anything?

Or maybe you just like the part where governments can’t print money to enact keynesian new deal style spending because boo hoo muh inflation. Maybe you think money should be made of magic yellow metal so that you can’t invent more of it when needed? If you want to try what it’s like when the state can’t arbitrarily mint more cash, try living in the Eurozone. Some of us are fine, but many sure think they could use that moolah printer. Somehow not getting to conjure up new Euros at the drop of a hat has not brought in the triumph of the People’s Economics.

Money without a state is not a better money, it’s just nonsense. Money is always a tool of vertical power structures. A state government is just about the least worst entity to have control over money. Don’t privatize money, consider abolishing it instead.

You ever see a random shitpost video, like the backgroud music, look it up and realize you already have the vinyl record? That just happened to me.

Exactly. It’s one thing to claim “nice comes from Latin nescius meaning ignorant therefore nice means stupid” and another to say “octopus and helicopter mean the same thing because helicopter comes from helico- meaning helical or spiral and pter meaning wing.”

Hehe, Nescius Moldbug.

Ooh, pants-on-head stupid semantics nonsense detected.

First, the government needs to be run top-down from the Oval Office. This is why we call it the “executive” branch. “Executive” is a literal synonym of “monarchical”—from “mono,” meaning “one,” and “archy,” meaning “regime.” “Autocratic” is fine too. The “executive branch” is the “autocratic branch,” or should be if English is English. Libs: if these words don’t mean what they mean, what do they mean?

Executive, as in pertaining to execution. Executing the the duties of a government as defined by legislation. Where the fuck did Curtsy get the impression that “executive” is somehow synonymous with “monarchical”? Did he mix it up with “exclusive”? Even corporations often have multiple executives with different roles.

Mr. Thiel you have so much fucking money couldn’t you afford a fascist philosopher king who is more intelligent than this guy who thinks an “executioner” is a guy that makes you a dictator?
