"Small mouth noises" - Terence McKenna

Ah.. Lilu, good times, good times.

Sure sure Ursula.. but children can decide to change their genders by kindergarten? That's perfectly OK?

Utter BS.

EU wishes to police the speech. Of everyone. Bring on the pan-opticon. The Eye of Sauron.

True.

Class of 2013 here. Ladies & gentlemen, in case you were wondering, Gloria is not cypherpunk. Some guy's woke GF as Core maintainer. FFS this clip alone is damning. Symptomatic. Total loss of respect for Core.

Access to compute. Trustworthy compute. With sufficient RAM to run decent models. Locally. 🤞 this becomes easier. It should, but no guarantees.

Yep. Lived experience beats book learning hands down.

True. And ironic. Given that Taleb demonstrated he was such a wimpering pussy during Covid. Liked "his" books, but I don't trust this was Taleb.

That's nice. And who gets to define what is "hate"? Rather important that.
The "Age Verification" push across multiple jurisdictions, simultaneously, could not be more transparent. Hint: it's not about the kids. Politicians could care less. It's about control. Power.

All freedom ceases to exist if free speech dies. Authoritarians everywhere pushing control. Same as it ever was. Welcome comrade to our new & improved digital utopia! Serfdom 2.0 - the very latest in surveillance collectivism! It's for your safety!

Brutal.

Ugh. So many sleep walking into tyranny. Oblivious. Not a cheery outlook. Fight tyranny however possible, regardless.
