Great post. I always like to remind Mormons how exactly Nephi got the plates from Laban. Mormons venerate vigilante justice - it shows in their history and in the current day.
I think there's a lot to be said about their recent attempts to join "Greater American Christendom" and how much this Tyler Robinson episode could do to de-rail that whole effort. I know they're powerful inside Utah and the West, but I've always maintained that the Mormons could once again become targets via fascist infighting. Their "allies" view them as heretics at the end of the day. No amount of rebranding or relaxing of orthodoxy will change that.
i guess new people connect to the internet every day, right?
seriously though. dont post stuff online that you wouldn't want to see on a billboard next to your face and name. if you're going to post inflammatory or potentially incriminating information, consider the risks and study opsec first, or better yet just dont post it at all.
this whole place is enemy territory until the panopticon terror nexus is abolished forever.
It is incredibly bleak. A good friend I've got nearly 10 years of work history nearly unrecognizable to me today. At first I suspected substance abuse but when I had a chance to really chat, they confessed to me. It could also still be substance abuse too
It's actually been something that's forced me to shift my perspective. I don't buy the propaganda of the luddification of anti-AI folks, that we'll be like those who refused to learn computers before the turn of the millennium. I actually think the technology is useful in niche and potentially broader situations. I will however never understand why the hell everyone is so comfortable providing their training data to other people's servers FOR FREE??? Some of them even pay for the privilege! This isn't even touching the data heists being pulled off in clear daylight which should at the very least land some people in prison.
I could go on, but... these days I feel more comfortable keeping my thoughts off the Internet.
Reminder to USians to download DeepSeek before it gets banned.
this is likely the solution for the time being. it's also what cloudflare's CEO recommended a couple weeks ago.
really interested in seeing how this changes things. i think we're already witnessing the loss of "the internet" as a place, or a refuge of sorts. as people need less and less interaction with computers in order to get the information they're looking for, they will not look back. i'm already starting to see this with friends in my life who have onboarded AI into their lives completely.
feds resorting to ragebaiting for impressions is not a good look. facebook meme page-tier ass government ahahaha
when its our turn, we will not apologize for the dunking
