I just posted one of my own, and I agree with your sentiment. I would like to see a future where humans achieve symbiosis with machines. Our brains acting as a limbic system to a larger sovereign machine entity. Still “you”, but more. For

As someone who recently migrated off of Dropbox, you can get most of the features with open source systems like Syncthing and a self hosted server. The main complication to implement is encryption at rest for the data (I use luks2 on a hd a

I just got done building an omni-channeling recording system, with a soc running ubuntu-server & alsa handling recording from several usb dacs connected to microphones. I feel your pain. Sound on linux is a nightmare. But now that I

That is incredibly sad. I dream of a day where marketing & sales people lose the reigns of control. Where we measure success based on time optimization, freedom, and happiness instead of money. The way it is now just isn’t working.

I just want to say, I am so happy you and others here are voicing this opinion on ads. I agree whole heartedly and avoid them like the plague — because they are a plague. A social disease infecting nearly every facet of modern reality, an

Everywhere? This is a specific and actual conspiracy occurring. Sort of like PRISM with the NSA. Or Hillary Clinton conspiring with the DNC to prevent Bernie Sanders from being the nominee. Hate to break it to you, but humans in leadershi

This is definitely not an AT-4, it’s an NLAW guided missile. AT-4s are much simpler & unguided — but still very effective weapons.

I would say that the knowledge and muscle memory can certainly be learned over YouTube with practice, but there is more to military than knowledge. There is an attitude and stress resilience. It’s one thing to know something, it’s a whole

A good reminder in general, but I don’t think it’s universally applicable. DMT no longer “works” for me, and my course & role is known. There is no tail chasing here. But “drugs” are just a tool to fix the sickness imbued by a very b

Have you ever hit rock bottom? Have you ever not wanted to exist anymore? I have, and it was terminal. Do you know what saved me? DMT. DMT saves my life. And every time I wanted it to end and I chose a pipe before going through with it

MJ on its own has certainly ruined some people, especially daily users. I would argue, however, significantly less so than alcohol. It also has a much lower harm fact on others than alcohol. MJ used more sparingly, and especially when use

I meant physiological harm, definitely a mistype on my end. That said, psilocybin is highly sensitive to set and setting, especially to other neural nets and especially to others also on it. There is a massive host of issues in partaking w

This much is clear. Scheduling MJ is extremely unwise. But I would also extend this to everything in the psychedelic / hallucinogenic category. They do no psychological harm and an increasing body of evidence indicates that they, in

Utilizing unintuitive patterns due entirely to tradition does not justify the practice. “Enter” both logically and functionally has an intuitive context of “run” or “enter into this object highlighted on screen” within the confines of a fi

You rename more than you open files and folders? Not sure why, but I find this concept hilarious. As someone that uses Windows, Linux (many flavors), and am now using a Mac as my primary daily due to M1 superiority, cut and paste is unifor

For Bitcoin and other PoW coins, the value is built into the name for minting: Proof of WORK. Less abstractly, today we can think of this as proof of energy consumption / production. In other words, it is sort of crystallizing energy

The standalone tethered headset is $2k — that makes it a significantly higher price than other options, especially given the risk involved. It has amazing specs, but $2k for a tethered headset is way too high. It needs to be below $1000 fo

I get it, making something like this isn’t cheap. I hope you can pull it off, VR computing is the dream. I would say this might necessitate an investor injecting liquidity and selling the headset below margins to generate a community initi

My mistake, okay. Edit: standalone is ~$2k. At these kinds of prices, will have to wait it out and see if they can deliver. The price has to come down somehow to make this more readily available / accelerate use.
