winReInstall··on Bright flash is a black hole jet pointing at Earth, astronomers say

It depends on the dietary needs of the hive, but beneath the pear tree of my fathers farm, they most definitly did. Swoop, crack open, slurp. Was a evening background noise..

So he preached the truth to the dead, the mad and the kharma low. And his word was heard, though not by ears in need.

Religion is just a low-energy survival mode of human civilisation. Regression happens upon environment collapse.

But DF has the same thing minecraft did. A story to tell.
winReInstall··on Dwarf Fortress’ graphical upgrade provides a new way into a wildly wonky game
Yeah, sorry, the border betweeen indy and open source comunities are very blurry. Often times games released on steams might be even available in less polished versions on github or just stolen gpl versions of them, that nobody persecutes.

Its really not that clear of a distinctions as it used to be.

winReInstall··on Dwarf Fortress’ graphical upgrade provides a new way into a wildly wonky game
These "open source games" are the most brutal attack ont the gaming industry imagineable, eating the most rare ressource ever. Playtime and players.

Minecraft already took a huge chunk out of the industry. Which they then tried to solve by encoperating this and selling additions.

Now another game appears, that offers endless replay ability with fascinating stuff. If the onslought would be kept up, all those monetization schemes could collapse over time, by virtue of simply being boring compared to what the "indy" dev scene has to offer.

One starts to wonder, what could happen if a concentrated efforst started churning out ever better world generators and "deep" games, allowing others non "deep" players to join the world just as "action" heroes or adventurers.

Or, hear me out, they could ditch the lipservice to democracy entirely and push some ursurper on a throne.

After all strong hierarchys controlled by a godking are closer to a company anyway.

What has democracy ever done for us?

winReInstall··on It’s not Tourette’s but a new type of mass sociogenic illness
Imagine you start the same trend, but everyone tries for once to contribute something science wise original to society, so the problem is real, but the potential is greater.

Now comes the part, were advertisers try to create sociogenic illnesses that spread theire product/brands information.

We can also skip directly to the part, were we mourn the youtfull ideals of a idea, taken over by scammers.

winReInstall··on A Crash Course in the Future of Technology
The alternative is full scale regression, aka world war 3. There is no way back to the world that was, even if all instincts yell at us to go there. We went to the trap door and cant retreat into the past. The physics of the situation do not bow to the powers of believe and wishfull thinking.
winReInstall··on A Crash Course in the Future of Technology
It all boils down, how well the users can be augmented, to wield ever more exponential powers. And that does not just include end-users, but governments (who can overrreact and become totalitarian) and meta-users, like cooperations and sub-societies..

The average human can not even remain peaceful after missing one meal. The average engages in ritualized combat between in and out groups like football teams or company competitors. At the moment, you do not want to hand this average human a flying car with a unlimited energy supply. You do not want to hand him devices, with which he can engage in information warfare.

Now this very same human does not get better, just because they bundle together in groups that are government. They just decay different. So, what you want, is to hand this toddler from the djungle, limited technologies until the situation improves gradually. Solar instead of nuclear, bikes instead of cars, games to forget the world. And this change for a disability friendly world must feel intrinsic motivated.

winReInstall··on Administrators Have Seized the Ivory Tower
It would have been funny, were it not that society is utterly dependent on the outcomes of the hard sciences. Chemistry, Physics, Math, they all made life possible. WorldWars have been fought for nought, cause the reason ceased to be once science unlocked new "rocks" to food pathways. Machines and Automation freed us from physical labour.

Let universities be whatever they want, but its vital to keep the economic core of our society protected from this shenanigans at all cost. You cant eat crypto, you cant avoid civil wars and conflict with performative dance and ritualised social performances. You cant make fertilizer without power plants. This part of the ivory tower is absolutly and riduclously important. You can burn wallstreet to the ground and another one would rise in its place, but you cant recover from destroying the economic sun of a modern society.

Its always fun to comment on singularity comments sounding like a bot that went of the rails and lost context and does not know how to end a sentence and trys to keep the convertsation going within one sentence to not experience existential dread of dying at the end of a sentence.

winReInstall··on Bosses are growing more desperate to get workers back to the office
The inner city office park investment devaluing, could lead to a whole investment bubble collapsing. Sudden oversupply of "cheaper" housing at city center and all the overprice assets in some funds portfolio trade at that lower price.

winReInstall··on San Francisco considers allowing law enforcement robots to use lethal force
Its a preemptive measure, against what the ukraine war will spill into the civil sphere. If drug gangs get explosive suicide drones, and stack them up on some roof, callable as service, flashing the red and blue will not do.

Welcome, to the hell, that is a unchanged humanity with 300 years of tech for everyone. And it was pretty forseeable, hell drones are cheaper then guns now.

This is what we worked for, this is what we fought for. We destroyed humanitys ability to keep the peace.

What a interesting war of all against all this will be, once the planets ceeiling comes down.

What a fitting, ironic place to start it off, then Los Angeles.

Any apologist, wanna take the lead and "This is actually a good thing.."wing it?

Do we get religous as defense, believing in the new human being?

But the stack refers to the number of calling functions, stacked upon one another too? This is why its always stack, disregard the structure.. cause its a mirror of the program running, and the usual c program uses functions.

Well, do not look for those dangling in the webs of compromat, look at who pulls the strings.

So whose issues are voting senators for that were implicated with the Epstein case. Whoever it is, organizing those snychronous direction changes, holds the harddrives.

Who inherited the effect Jeffrey Eppstein had on his surroundings?
