  • Then rich can afford to protect themselves, we can’t. We lose in that conflict. Whatever freedoms you think you have now will be restricted in a society where the rich are worried about their safety.

    They don’t lose anything. In fact, I bet it’s even convenient for them to have reasons to build cages around everyone. Lots of money in building survellience, tracking people, spying on people.

    The initial state of that has begun with Google but it’s not going to end. Decades from now, it’s possible that people will envy that previous generations could use the internet without identifying themselves, or go into buildings without a retina scan.






  • Social media changed dating, and made it ok for both women and men to treat eachother as commodities, resources, status symbols.

    This bleeds over in real life, where women don’t need/want to have relationships with men anymore (in real life) in the west (outside of their love relationship). They already get all the attention they need from hundreds of men on social media telling them they are beautiful.

    A lot of western guys go for girls in Indonesia or Thailand these days, because they are kind and beautiful. Of course the girls see the opportunity to be with a guy from the west who has money. But it seems to work out. Both genders are often happy in those relationships, both get what they value from it.

    All my stuff is on a network drive (movies and other big files). All configuration of apps is in git (their config files).

    Makes it easy to start over.

    I just reinstall apps I need, it’s so simple with Linux and package managers handling it all.





  • I have compassion for people on the subway that act like monkeys, screaming and moving around a lot. Their maturity levels simply doesn’t allow them to understand basic nice behavior.

    They are in the very beginning of their human experience, someone who just spawned into a game on level one and never played before.

    And still they annoy me so much. Lol.



  • Yup I agree. I also think there is human cloning going on too (it’s illegal but obviously secret organizations are doing it).

    Do those clones have souls? It’s even more interesting to me since it’s an attempted copy of a real person.

    We won’t find out until cloning is legal, and it won’t be legal until it’s 100% safe. All the failed clones are most likely being terminated in secret.
