What is it about society that disappoints you so much?

Oh I don't know, is it that we collectively thought Steve Jobs was a great man even when we knew he made billions off the backs of children?

Or maybe it's that it feels like all our heroes are counterfeit; the world itself's just one big hoax. Spamming each other with our burning commentary of bullshit masquerading as insight, our social media faking as intimacy.

Or is it that we voted for this? Not with our rigged elections, but with our things, our property, our money. I'm not saying anything new. We all know why we do this, not because Hunger Games books makes us happy but because we wanna be sedated. Because it's painful not to pretend, because we're cowards.

Fuck Society.

Finished the third season of Invasion. First season was good, but after that it kind of went downhill.

This is the same strategy I use with my family as well, I refer to a service they know and then tell them it's in our house.

Sunday is upgrade day, meaning I will update the OS on my servers and then update all my helm charts.

Everyone’s always in favor of saving Hitler’s brain, but when you put it in the body of a great white shark. Ohhh, suddenly you’ve gone too far.

What a fantastic project. Thanks for posting.

Although not explicitly AI, the movie WarGames come to mind.

I'm not sure what the drug debate of your country is like, so please correct me if my assumptions are incorrect.

In my experience, the drug debate lacks nuance, it's mostly the hardcore fans or the drugs-will-kill-you crowd that we see, while more level-headed voices are drowned out.

There's also a problem with facts. Research on a lot of drugs have been prohibited for a long time, making this a relatively new field of study.

With more studies, we're going to see confirmation of certain theories and rejection of others, making our knowledge more fact based and less opinionated.

My highly personal opinion is that it is a mistake to talk about drugs as one thing. There are tons of different drugs, and each one should be discussed by itself, not as a part of drugs. I also firmly believe that we are individuals and we all respond different to different chemicals. Saying that a chemical will have this effect on everyone is a mistake. I do however believe that a good setting, a sensible dose and someone watching over you, can drastically reduce any negative effects.

With that said, the "high" is not for everyone and that is okay.
