Soyweiser@awful.systemsto SneerClub@awful.systems•We need to escape the Gernsback ContinuumEnglish4·2 days agoI enjoyed what I have seen from the series so far tbh. Doesnt follow the books religiously l, but still a good bit of sf imho. They seem to understand scale at least.

Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 6th July 2025English9·2 days agoI will just debate big brother to change their minds!
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto SneerClub@awful.systems•We need to escape the Gernsback ContinuumEnglish5·2 days agoSadly we talked about those here, and how unlikely they are to going to work, either in the future or ever. Also, think it was a fusion reactor.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto SneerClub@awful.systems•We need to escape the Gernsback ContinuumEnglish6·3 days agoRe being a transhumanists: Well that is why I personally dont like the term tescreal, as I do think there can be good transhumanists out there. The hot swappable furry sex organ transhumanists vs the I just want to code javascript faster transhumanists. (Meant as strawman of both, but Id prefer the first, esp as they are more likely to go the ‘it should be available to all of us or none of us’ route).
Personally I dont think I would mind living forever (or untill Im tired of it) given everyone gets the choice we stay healthy and have free stuff for example. But that will not happen under the Muskians/Rationalists/etc. (im remembering the moment I discovered one of the H+ people was spouting anti trans lines for example, they just want to personally live forever and fuck everyone else it seems).
E: ah they got told to leave.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto SneerClub@awful.systems•We need to escape the Gernsback ContinuumEnglish12·3 days agoThey traded coal interstellarly, which always made me lol. Think a lot of the people who are this hype about the older sf simply have not read them again in ages. As blakestacey says, the golden age is 12.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto SneerClub@awful.systems•The New York Times published a hit piece on Mamdami, citing CrémieuxEnglish8·3 days agoHe might have also lost a lot of money in betting markets re the nyc primary and his attempt at market manipulation us leading to more exposure of the guy. A very foot shooting moment.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 6th July 2025English7·3 days agoI now imagine a date going ‘hey what is wire heading?’ before slowly backing out of the room.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 6th July 2025English5·3 days agoAlso dropped this in the other thread about this but some fam member I think is dropping some lols on the guy. https://bsky.app/profile/larkshead.bsky.social/post/3ljkqiag3u22z it gets less lol when you get to the “yeah we worried he might become a school shooter” bit.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto SneerClub@awful.systems•The New York Times published a hit piece on Mamdami, citing CrémieuxEnglish24·3 days agoSome people who know cremie are dropping some more lore on him. He apparently has a bit of a problem re lying about credentials and grades : https://bsky.app/profile/larkshead.bsky.social/post/3ljkqiag3u22z
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 6th July 2025English10·4 days agoI eas slightly saddened to scroll over his dating profile and see almost every seemed to be related to AI even his other activities. Also not sure how well a reference to a chad meme will make you do in the current dating in SV.

Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 29th June 2025English9·9 days agoId tell them to contact local squatters who have exp in this stuff over trusting LLMs myself. But those people will prob not tell them what they want to hear.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 22nd June 2025English3·13 days agoBut that isn’t a proper copy, as in this simulated reality there is no basilisk (if there is the basilisk also needs to simulate basilisks, and all the way down), so finding out if you are a copy is easy. If it is impossible to build an AGI in our reality, we are in the sim.
Wait…
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 22nd June 2025English2·13 days agoSucks that a lot of reddit is also being botted. But yes reddit still good. Still fucked that bots take a redit post as input, rewrite it into llm garbage and those then get a high google ranking, while google only lists one or two reddit pages.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 29th June 2025English8·13 days agoLol ow haha, jesus, admitting he is the lw sysadmin might have been nice.
Soyweiser@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 29th June 2025English6·13 days agoAmazing how both accounts refuse to directly answer the ‘are you involved in LW/SSC’ question, but work around that question so much (and get so defensive) that they are very suspicious.
Imagine how messy divorces now suddenly get. (Dont worry I know how they will fix this, just ban divorce!)
