Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

How did I just walk into the cat store and bring home this beautiful baby?

Es ist total wichtig, sich immer wieder zu fragen: weiß ich wirklich, was ich zu wissen glaube?
Die meisten Dinge wissen wir nur so ungefΓ€hr. Das ist ganz normal.

Anderes Beispiel: was macht eigentlich eine Zentralbank?
Klar, in etwa weiß man das.
Aber kΓΆnntet ihr es erklΓ€ren? Ich spontan nicht.

Stars are disappearing before our eyes β€” and something in us is shifting For most of human history, the night sky has been a shared inheritance, a source of wonder. Now, more than a billion children see barely any stars in the night sky above their homes. So what does that...

'We are losing the stars. Not all at once, but quietly, one streetlight, one neon sign, one expanding suburb at a time.'

I’ve had the same username for three decades. I was otto on late 90s IRC. When the name wasn’t available on early gaming forums, I became ottocrat. I was there before gamergate, before 4chan, slapping down snotty nosed bullies before they ran the world, and I’ll be doing it still from my deathbed.

I love a really good fake quote.

This one has all the ingredients because it sounds nothing like Orwell, is poorly written, and incredibly dumb.

"But if you attach a famous name and deliver it with whispered gravitas, there will always be dumbasses who'll believe it."
