  • I don’t believe dull people actually exist, there are only people whose spark hasn’t been lit.

    AI is snuffing out those sparks en masse, preventing many of our greatest future talent to ever exist in the first place.

    This machine will kill us all, and it won’t even need to be smarter than us to do so…


  • It’s a machine made to steal your skills from you. Let the robot do your work and don’t worry about becoming competent yourself ! Prompting totally counts as a skill in itself !

    I am also currently seeing several of my family members descend into the pit where they ask every question they have to chatGPT and immediately trust the answer… Haven’t been able to convince them that thing sometimes is utterly wrong and sometimes even lies !

    It’s devouring resources and CS graduates that would be much better utilised pursuing something actually good and useful for the world.

    My budget has been “don’t spend too much” for the last 10 years and it’s worked out wonderfully. You don’t need a clever laid out plan, you just need to ask yourself “how can I spend even less ?”

    Cancel every subscription immediately unless you actually need it. Pirate everything. Get everything on sale or thrift it. Either buy the cheapest thing you can, or spend enough to buy the indestructible version you’ll keep for 15-20 years. Fix problems immediately for cheap before they get expensive.

    As a result I’m still managing to save up money while my income is under 10K a year.

    I like Gnome’s apps, and I think I would install Gnome on any non-techie user’s computer.

    But for myself ? I want all the options ! So I use KDE. Probably going to switch to a tiling WM, I’d like my whole desktop experience use tmux shortcuts, basically.


  • You don’t get build muscle using an excavator to lift weights. You don’t produce interesting thoughts using a GPU to think.

    I’m stealing that 😈 though I’ll probably switch out the first example for something different, because I am a person with a soul, so I can 💅🏻

    (Side note : I never thought I’d be boasting about literally just existing 😂 what interesting times we live through)



  • Humans may not be obligate herbivores ; nonetheless eating meat invariably hurts us in the short and long term.

    Meet is like alcohol, you can get your calories from booze ; but why would you inflict that upon yourself ?

    Eating meat is only deleterious. You may be able to stave off the visible consequences for a while, but make no mistake, it is eating you from the inside.

    We were not meant to feed upon murder.

    Proof ? Vegans are the only human group to be consistently healthy and long lived. We are exempt from many illnesses considered nigh-inevitable, even when genetically predisposed.
