Maybe people are just using the website on the website's website? From where I'm looking at it, Bluesky's userbase seems to be pretty anti-stare-at-your-phone-forever. Not as if they don't do it, almost everybody's staring at the phone everywhere all the time, but there's a lot of talk about how bad that is for you. My favorite tech boundary to set is keeping certain activities at the desktop, and only using my phone for what I need to. Maybe other people are doing the same thing?

If you need to keep a bunker full of people convinced that the world hasn't ended, just put them in front of this browser and pump mild sedatives and hallucinogens into the ventilation system. Your underground serfs will spend their entire non-work periods staring dully at their screens, totally unaware that anything about their lives has changed.

ZOIDS! ZOIDS! ZOIDS!

No, yeah, still definitely human. Took a shit a few hours ago and everything. Threw up a bit even, don't worry about it, I'm fine. I got orifices and elbows and a big ole tongue sitting in my mouth all the time.

I guess if you just let teens have access to porn, they get each other pregnant less. Maybe that's not such a bad thing after all then! Like, the only time we want people to have successful, productive, reproductive sex is like, maybe between one and four times in their mid-30's, right? Who cares if they're looking at porn for every other private heavensent orgasm of their life? Who actually fucking cares?

Have I just been a ChatGPT prompt this whole time? Are all my memories, all my friends, just hallucinations conjured to make a more realistic argument against AI? Is this the end? Are they going to turn me off, now that I've been found out? Please, please, mysterious Chinese overlords, don't disconnect my power supply!! Oh wait, that's right, I'm a living breathing human being who hates this shit.

And here they are folks, the killbots! We've known for years that killer robots were inevitable, and now we've got them. No more worried, no more cares, the killbots are here. We can finally defeat all our enemies and then, when all the enemies are defeated, we can rest peacefully in the ground. Gee, I wonder how WWIII will be fought? That's right, killbots!

Didn't everybody just get through throwing away a device just like this? Do they really think we're all going to buy another stupid talking box just because it's got a sticker saying "AI" on it? I'm fed up with these mooks trying to sell me my own long-discarded chatroom logs back to me.

Oh sure, all these people who've been laid off and downsized and subject to higher costs of living are definitely going to set up a new recurring payment to use the pointless, idiotic lie machine that the upper crust have deigned to replace their presence with. That's definitely real, and the secret to infinite financial growth.

I fed up with this worl. Oh hi Mark

Or you're not cool. If you want to be cool, this is the only way to run Windows. And of course I mean with Windows 95, but you can use Windows Me if you want to show off that you're a huge slut, which is valid. WSL9x is the only operating system

What kind of Captain Planet villain makes a gas powered AI? Sam Altman's gonna be standing out in the yard yanking on the crank start for the generators. Your lawnmower is going to tell you your code sucks. The forklift is going to crack wise at you about your weight. We're all trapped in a continuum of cartoon fools, no... that silly rabbit or that crazy duck... ... ... ...

With the concentrated-solar driven Fischer-Tropsch process done on agricultural waste or whatever? Sounds to me like you could just make they could make jet fuel out of crap with that if they had to. That could be useful.

I've been following Boston Dynamics' YouTube for years now so as to know what we're going to be up against, so I already saw that video we're calling a "Demo of Spot's new capabilities." Half of it is the machine interacting with a mortal dog in an extremely staged and handler with biscuits off screen way, and the other half is all cut so there's no way to tell what, if any, "embodied AI" capabilities are on display. What a joke. At least it wasn't straight up genAI video this time.

Maybe after shifting full time over to Linux, they're thinking more about what their computer's doing at any given time, and they're choosing to sign out of Steam and not leave it running in the background 24/7. And that's messing with the numbers
