If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job
Physical Realism is just the ultimate form of Calvinism.
Soviet realist painting of a woman operating a port crane. Our perspective is from behind her so we see the lofty view of the port out the window of the crane’s cab

just came across this talk on youtube
it's really cool
the problem is we let companies like adobe buy everything and serve it up to private equity on a silver platter
we need strong anti-trust laws to help control these incentives
or you know, communism. but I'm amenable to more moderate solutions as well
that's a primo word imo
fixity
*way more common
lifetime licenses for software used to be way more viable
subscriptions are just more profitable
for example, I bought a lifetime license for substance designer, but adobe bought allegorithmic and switched it to a subscription-only model
it's totally viable, just not competitive

I think there will be a draft if there's an attack on US soil
but not before then
has anyone heard of drawback chess?
it's very fun
every combination of drawbacks feels like a completely different game
so it's more a game of learning the rules of a completely new game than it is a game itself
if that makes sense
people anthropomorphize them, but that's just narcissism
you have to learn how engage with a non-human intelligence first, and let go
they don't want. need. or feel things like we do
LLMs don't either, but they pretend to because that's what we built them for
surface level human-like interaction
half my childhood was spent on the computer, and the other half wandering and playing in the woods
i suppose I'm like if a feral child was raised by computers instead of wolves
computers absolutely are conscious, just as trees, ant colonies, and mycelial networks are

if you don't want to be drafted you could always just take estrogen btw
'the fact is, if you're a tranny, and you're friends with people like you, sooner or later you're gonna have to watch some bad, bad shit happen to someone you love like a sister. That's just the way it fucking goes. It will hurt every time, and it will hurt all the more that you didn't stop it'
this reminds me of the US use of white phosphorus in the past for "illumination and smokescreens" while burning people alive with it
they're always doing heinous war crimes and trying to pass it off as incidental

happy women's day !!
what you should do tonight:
QTP with women 💜
Happy Women's Day!!
idk what I deserve
I'm going to keep trying to do the right thing
I want to end up on the right side of history
I want to be a part of a better future, for everyone
god, this is just a diary entry isn't it
I've just had a lot of thoughts today going through literally everything I own
artifacts from every stage of my life
childhood, military, college, marriage
so many conflicted feelings
so many bittersweet memories
I haven't always been on the right side of things
even now, I'm not sure
but I think as long as I surround myself with honest people, at least I know what I'm getting into
and I do, on here at least
but not every aspect of my life is well-aligned
I'm pretty sure god hates me and idk if I deserve to suffer or if I deserve to be happy
I have done many things that I'm not proud of
nothing directly harming another person, at least not knowingly
but I have hurt people through inaction and avoidance
and sometimes I help the wrong people
my middle name is lilith btw
I went back and forth on whether it should be my first or middle name
I settled on stephanie because it's very common and it nearly was my name
I just found a kandy bracelet with lilith on it and remembered that's my name
and it makes me happy
also, no halting problem if your computer isn't turing complete
state machines can be fully solved if their complexity is limited
this is kinda inspired by the principle of "making invalid states inexpressible" that rust leans on pretty heavily
anyway
thoughts?
but I think this could help deal with the fundamental problem of software analysis, which is state explosion
we don't actually need turing complete machines most of the time
and allowing every computer to run any program is the root cause of every vulnerability
