Short Summary
In a lively discussion, crypto enthusiasts explored the latest trends in the market, including the resurgence of meme coins, the impact of AI on creative professions, and the potential for stable coins to disrupt traditional finance. The conversation highlighted the evolving dynamics of trading behavior and the influence of social media on market sentiment.
Full Transcription
i think i got him up yeah here you can uh i tried like three times i don't know if it worked the
last time i'm world historically bad at getting these people in the office okay we're live
okay what's up guys what did we learn what did we learn from this last day in the uh the trenches
i've been pretty tuned out ghib right give me he's been running i think
most users were quite short actually the funding was maximum negative and then it pumps 50 percent
yeah i was gonna say i saw the big funding and uh i got worried for a lot of people
i mean it's been right to short the daily runner for like the last two weeks but
sometimes it's it can actually become like the pve runner to short the Daily Runner for the last two weeks, but sometimes it can actually become the PvE runner.
I mean, the White House tweeted a meme.
I don't know if you saw that.
Oh, yeah, I did see that.
I retweeted it.
The deportation one was pretty funny.
Everyone's complaining.
How could you do that? Some like, some like really happy, cutesy, like ice squad,
like coming and carrying away,
like screaming,
like mom that's being separated from her kids.
Like this is totally something JD Vance would tweet.
I wonder who's actually running the account.
All propaganda and psyops is going to be in this meme,
meme sphere in the future.
I think it's going to be like,
you're going to have like political parties create like meme coins and like memes
meme warfare
It's honestly been really stupid how
The online artist community has handled AI in general like I don't think any other industry has like integrated AI worse into their lives
worse into their lives when they could more like easily benefit from it but the issue is that like
When they could more like easily benefit from it
they trained for so many years on these skills so being told that that's actually useless or
you can just press a button and do it like it's pretty brutal so i don't know like i it's kind
of the same for programming like and i've spent years learning coders love it coders also trained
for years and they're like oh fuck like i can just do it in two times or like half the time now.
Like this is amazing.
I think, yeah, it's like, oh my God, this thing's going to take my job.
Like, thank God.
But I think like the main reason is probably because programmers, if they've been doing this for years, they're probably pretty wealthy, whereas artists are not.
So like the programmers are probably OK with getting replaced at this point.
Well, if you're a dev and you're using AI, like you're just more productive strictly, right?
Like there's no difference.
Like there's no like characteristic, like brushstroke behind how you write a, like a given instruction.
Right.
But, uh, I don't know.
It's, I think it's, there's a definitely an artistic element to it.
If you want to get, I mean, if you want to get artistic about, I guess you can, but like not, but like necessarily there doesn't need to be.
Sure. Yeah. As long as it works.
Whereas like, that's like the whole like point, like the whole affectation of being an artist is the characteristic of the brushstroke, you know, imprinting yourself.
I mean, we even, even the word that you use to, to push back against me was art was artistic. Right.
against me was art was artistic, right?
So yeah, it's a lot, it's a lot close.
It's a lot closer to their heart.
But like, I think there is like a more,
a bigger issue for them in the sense that like for a programmer,
AI is a force multiplier.
If you're an artist, it's
it kind of just alienates you.
I think it's like from the perspective of like a hiring manager,
it's like, oh, my programmers are like,
like a project manager and like some like tech tech company my programmers are like 10 times more effective
that's amazing uh whereas if you're like a hiring manager like an art department like a game company
or something like that it's why do we need all these people when we can just develop all these
uh all these textures just with ai right like texture artists like might go bye-bye there's
definitely certain types of uh artistic professions that are going to go bye bye. And I think that like, the people who are the most
angry about it are like the like the porn commission artists people. And like, they're
done. It's like, why would you ever like spend like however much money it costs to like get a
commission of like, whatever furry porn you're into or whatever, you can just you know hit up your local open source uh
open source stable diffusion model you know like they're like quite famous like if it's like a
famous artist then there's still like that sort of aura on their work is there notoriety for furry
porn art probably yeah probably i mean i'm not like I'm in the scene or anything, but...
I guess all art has provenance, right?
I guess the problem with art, too,
is copyright is impossible to enforce now.
So a lot of artists can't actually collect
the returns from their art being used
in these data sets.
Like I said, there's a few like very high profile
suicides in the art community uh a few months ago yeah not recently so yeah because i think
i mean art is like inherently open sourced at this point right like i mean even even with the
copyright laws when they were applicable it's like it's very easy to get around the copyright laws when they were applicable. It's like, it's very easy to get around the copyright law. And like, it's very rare that you need like 100% exact copy
to evoke like the same feeling.
You can like copy the idea of a character, right?
It's like the idea that was healing to people.
It's not necessarily like every specific line and detail.
Yeah, there are some AI artists now
that are starting to become like collectible.
Like there's like, I'm at Art Basel this week in Hong Kong.
Okay.
There's this trend now of being kind of like an edgelord artist.
You use AI, but you also use maybe something from your body.
So there's one lady, she uses her hair to paint stuff, but then AI tells her.
So there's a robot that is moving her hair around, like she's also moving based on what the robot says.
So, but it's obviously like, you know,
in a year or five years, you know,
maybe that'll look archaic because it's like still like,
what is the, but I think she's trying to explore
like what part of it needs the human,
like what part of it needs a person.
Yeah.
It's actually a really good time for people
to go into like contemporary art i think
because there's a lot of like people who are using ai and like uh so there's there's parts of any
given like piece of art where you can hide ai generated things and people like won't even
notice right you can add like a ton of detail and texture to certain things with ai but as long as
you like don't do the whole thing in AI,
nobody will notice.
Like if they go for the given AI tells
on like the main subject of whatever the picture is,
and it looks to be human drawn,
then they'll be like,
oh yeah, like that passes the test.
But like maybe all of the backgrounds
of the walls and the shading,
and like there's like some weird 3D
like object on the floor
or something like that, that is AI.
So that's how I've been seeing people like work it in and then you have like the art community like uh just it's sort
of like that thing too where like people who people would go on to like the the transitioning
boards and post like a picture of like a biological woman and say like just just transition today
feeling good people are doing the same thing with like the art where they're posting like uh like a fully hand-drawn thing and saying like
just generated this in ai like feeling pretty good and then everyone gets like suicidal uh
wouldn't it be the reverse i don't know why would it be suicidal about that it's like i think it's
junk because if you if you make really good like hand-drawn art and then claim that uh it was
by ai now all of the artists are like we are so yeah they're like oh i can't even tell it looks
because there is no difference but like the funny thing with the artists is that they will start
coping and they will be like it's so bad like it looks so. It's the most hideous thing I've ever seen. This will never replace us.
It's seriously just mind-boggling to me.
It's like a bunch of mental gymnastics to not think this is cool.
It's going to replace my job as well, and I still think it's cool as hell.
Definitely.
It changes who can define themselves as an artist, actually.
It completely changes it.
I have this natural affinity
for hand-eye coordination and spatial reasoning.
And I think now it's like,
you can just be like a word-based person
and you can create art through word.
I mean, a lot of contemporary art has been about
like master, like mastership,
like being a master doesn't matter anymore.
Like you can't, there's nothing to master.
So now we're at like the edge of that
where it's like, there's nothing to master, but we're at like the edge of that where it's like there's nothing to master but it's like about like crazy ideas whatever um but it's definitely very
analogous to programming even though i know you say it's different but like like right now i feel
like it's um the people that are like kind of entrenched already they've learned without ai
they are like senior devs they understand how to build an entire application like they're
more powerful now and then like the roles for the juniors that are like senior devs they understand how to build an entire application like they're more
powerful now and then like the roles for the juniors that are like just getting into it are
kind of going away but like it's kind of the same thing with artists where like the people that are
already famous or notorious for something like they're going to be okay but then like it's
probably more difficult to create a name for yourself as a new artist. Yeah.
I think it's, it's gonna be very hard unless you get like a
gallery to just like collectors to say, this is awesome. Like,
it's almost like meme coins now, I feel where it's just like,
you get to like these, these pump groups and say, this art is
cool. He's using AI like this. He he he's doing this, that. And
it becomes like like even
harder to evaluate like like why what why this has value it becomes like meme coins basically
because i think in the old days like that there's more of this idea of like the masterly art and but
i think now it's like uh it's completely dead it's like beyond dead and so like i think people are
like more scared to collect contemporary than ever before because
of that.
Because they're just like all the stuff that like 10 years ago, like there's no end buyer
basically at some point, you know, it's like.
So do you think this is going to like start affecting the art market?
Like the.
I think so.
High end art market.
Interesting.
I definitely think so i
mean i think it's gonna be it's almost like bitcoin dominance right it's like when you have
like 20 000 meme coins made a day eventually people are like i can't follow the stuff
i think you're gonna get the same like people nowadays i see like people say like oh i'm just
gonna collect like you know the modernist right like micasso and like matisse and stuff or i'm
just gonna collect like the impressionists or the? Like Picasso, like Matisse and stuff, or I'm just gonna collect the impressionists
or the old masters.
Cause they're like, ultimately this stuff-
Those are always gonna be valuable.
Yeah, they're always gonna be there.
You can't make more of them.
And then like, you know, like in 500 years,
we might still, I mean,
there's still gonna be a Van Gogh museum.
People still love Van Gogh.
So you don't have to like worry about like
what happens next.
Whereas like, how do you collect an artist starting out now
and like, you know, three top galleries are are like this is the next like van gogh you're like like this is the
next basquiat like you can't actually like there's just no way to prove or disprove it it's like
it's literally like a pump fun coin basically so and like every time a piece of ai art goes viral
now like people are like making all these comments like
oh this is so cool like if only it was made by a human like it sucks because it's a it's crazy like
obviously like it went viral because it spoke to people anyways yeah exactly like the cost of
creating art is going to zero basically just like the cost of creating a token went to zero
um so the old artists are almost like the VCs.
It still doesn't really affect like physical canvas. Like if I was going to go buy a painting
and I wanted to hang it on my wall, like AI can't really do that yet.
It does though. AI and robotics can create very good replicas already now. Like it can create art.
That's where a lot of experimentation right now is in contemporary
art it's like what kinds of things will people pay for for me to put like an ai model with a
robotics thing and then people will buy the output like they'll value the output so they'll do like
runs and they'll be like okay i did 50. that's gonna be such a brutal logging like dude you watch
like uh it's like at the airport where they have that little robot arm that makes you the coffee.
But like now it just like instapaints like the world's highest resolution image in four seconds.
Like imagine being like a painter who's trained your whole life seeing that.
You're just like, it's so fucking over, man.
You're on your wrong wrong mic again by the way
so you mentioned this earlier though it's like art has been has has had this problem for like a long
time ever since like photography it's like still life was a thing, and now it's not really a thing because of photography.
So the same conversation, in essence, has been had many, many times already.
It's like, oh my gosh, what's the point of what I'm doing right now if we can just do this instantaneously with technology?
And yet art persists.
I think we're kind of far enough down
like the modern contemporary postmodern art train
to understand that there is like a little bit
of like a magic touch to like just when a human
puts in any kind of input.
It doesn't have to be necessarily mechanical
in how they put the paint on the canvas
or something like that.
I think it's as simple as just just their their personality
imprinting onto the uh onto the piece and uh i i think it's like you said sayuki like there are
like pieces of ai art that go viral because they speak to people and uh at some level i would like
feel the soul in it yeah exactly i would like to think that it speaks to people because there there
is that degree of like human imprinting on it you know yeah I mean it can't exist without the
human like the AI can't generate
it without human input still
yeah probably there's a way you can make it happen
there's another argument that's
that they bring up in terms of like the training
data and everything it's like oh like this
can't create its own original
style let's like grant
that for the just grant that for the
sake of argument right like maybe in the future it can doesn't grant that for the just grant that for the sake of argument right
like maybe in the future it can doesn't matter just we'll just grant it it can't create its own
original style what proportion of actual artists are are themselves creating their own original
style meaningfully right that's not a dig at artists right like there there's still lots of
good art like like all the impressionist painters right there there's like mo like uh monet was the first and money uh monet was the last after basically all of them kind of uh um kind of
washed out but they all were kind of following in the same style and they're all hung up alongside
him and in uh in galleries museums that bother to carry them um none of them were they were all in
the same movement you know they were all in some way in this case, just mimicking Monet, but it still had that punch to it.
Yeah, I mean, it's difficult.
I mean, it's difficult to do anything in any kind of art that someone hasn't already done.
In anything, period.arthy has a good quote it's like the sad fact is that books are made
out of books like you if you write a book it's because it's it's uh in some sense it's a synthesis
of every book you wrote prior and there's really no sense in which you make a truly original work
like truly original it's always derivative in some sense,
but it's just like your little,
your touch that makes it its own thing.
It's very rare that there are just complete breaks in style,
just complete breaks.
There's some people with this sentiment like totally black pills,
and it's always been sort of like weird to me
because it just seemed sort of like
intuitive pretty early on. And I just don't understand like, Oh my god, like, so over
like, I will never be the first one to discover x like I think there's like a sort of I don't
know, like young like, I'm gonna miss I'm gonna mispronounce this word to like Faustian
drive to like find you said it find some new uninhabited space.
I mean, people have been saying this for centuries, right? Like you're building on the shoulders of giants.
Like you're always drawing from human knowledge to create new knowledge anyways.
I don't see why that would be black pilling at all really that just seems
like common sense i i know a few people that are very black pilled about ai art um
they're my impression of their sentiment seems to be that it's more a reaction to
like uh just call it slop colloquially just just like the sheer mass of the shit. Like there's like a sturgeon's law, 99% of everything tends, tends to be dog shit. So therefore 99% of AI art tends to be dog shit as well. And right now it's kind of like hip or whatever. So
it's, it's just everywhere. So chances are you're 99% of what you're going to see is
dog shit. So that's going to be your impression of it.
But you like I'm in crypto. Like I was there for an NFT bull run, right?
I have already been exposed to so much more dog shit like slop that the Fiverr art that was used
to make like $10,000 tokens. It cannot get more retarded than that. Like all of these,
all of these like absolute mid tier like Ghibli edits, you're just like, you know what?
This is still much more aesthetically pleasing than the Lazy Lions or something like that.
The Ghibli edits are kind of a good example because they're all edits of actual photos.
So there was intrinsically, in this case, there's that little human touch to it.
My favorites are all the Trump ones, like uh like trump at the table with like merkel or whatever um the one with
romney is really funny too but um but all of those like it's it's a little gibbification of like some
some like natural human uh some natural human settings so like it's it's kind of there it's
what we're talking about i think i think that's that's going to let that maybe that's going to be the AI art meta is like it's going to be
maybe a filter call it, but that sounds reductive as well. I can understand. I can kind of
understand why someone would object to their field being reduced to a filter.
At least insofar as they understand it that way, I should say.
It's just really like it's not even
just the cost of art that's going to zero it's just the cost of all knowledge that's going to
zero which is like much more transformative so it's like i don't know i think it's more exciting
than it is blackpilling but that's just me personally i guess i think the thing is regardless
of whether it's exciting or blackpilling you have to be excited about it because you have to be excited about everything that's happening that you have no control over or else you're just going to be like sad all the time and kill yourself.
Right. So like you have to massage your brain
until you find a way to like the ai or else you're gonna have a really unpleasant century
when i mean when chad gpt first came out i was still finishing college so like i was absolutely
ecstatic about it because i no longer had to do pretty much fucking anything right like i used it
for every assignment and
it got better grades than i did so that was like a pretty nice entry into it um and then obviously
it helps with programming a lot which is i do all the time so i mean you just have to find ways to
make it enhance your life i guess so you don't feel suicidal over it
yeah there's a way to win in every environment you just have to choose to
or choose to believe you can because you like you can't put the genie back in the bottle at
this point like it's there it's out there so yeah fight or lay down and die like what do you choose
i just think the uh the ai art meta at the very least is going to be how do you integrate it into your art?
It's kind of the same deal with how a good programmer takes advantage of AI.
How do you take advantage of AI written code and put it inside of your...
Typically, it's like the example you brought up.
A senior engineer will have some notion of how an application needs to be architected,
and then he fills it in.
He fills it in with AI generated code
and then makes corrections where hallucinations occur
and so forth.
I think it's going to be the same deal with capable artists.
They're going to have some notion for a piece,
some notion of composition, and then they kind of fill it in,
and then they fill in the gaps themselves. It's definitely going to develop
a different aesthetic sensibility as a result.
So I'm very excited to see what happens,
but I think that artists by nature
are kind of more temperamental about the thing.
I think that just like that,
because back to the photography example,
a lot of very early.
Reactive movements to photography were sort of nihilistic.
It was like almost a deconstruction of their own profession. Like, oh, what's the point?
Like, I tried to capture the world with a paintbrush and now it's done with a daguerreotype or whatever.
and now it's done with a
Digger or Type or whatever.
I think there's always going to
with artists specifically, there's going to be
kind of a cynical adoption period
until
maybe the next generation
something like that.
Didn't you see the same thing with
the printing press, for example?
Like, oh my god, all of a sudden everyone can
easily create manuscripts.
Like every tech. tech i don't i really
don't know because at the time with like the printing press it's like most um most scribes
were like monks so they weren't really getting paid i don't i i don't think there was as much of
a of a financial not financial but it was still like a gatekeeping thing. Yeah. Who can create written texts?
Yeah, probably in the abstract.
I just don't know, though.
I think something that's really weird is just like demographically.
If you look at the group of people who are usually artists, they're usually libtards right and then if you look at the group of people who like usually like
loves change and embraces new technology and like hates uh luddites luddites again don't know that
word luddite they are also uh typically libtards but then you have this one group of libtards that
for some reason just like they're like i love all change and progressivism except like uh technology
that involves like my field specifically and you're like you know like it feels like uh
like that to me means that it has to inherently be giga code
yeah i think you're right weird that's weird though because like doesn't the term progressive
kind of mean like change like why
uh and like the right refers to themselves as like conservative so that's
kind of against change i think that the whole progressive conservative dynamic is sort of like
historically contingent at any given moment you could have uh sort of the right the right word
sensibility is more uh being more reactionary and
more progressive it kind of it really depends on certain historical circumstance i think that more
more broadly like the right and the left refer to like psychological types wherein the uh we're in
like the right is more accepting of like inequality and the and the necessary value judgments that like contribute and
follow from it and the left kind of believes in equality is like a moral good to be imposed
and i think that that kind of maps better on to the under their attitude regarding technology
because the left is like very willing to embrace like these really crazy like fluid social
technologies and everything that basically don't amount to anything
but like chaos right but when you introduce a technology that actually kind of furthers
stratification furthers rarefication and refinement and everything then then they have a problem
basically anything that makes resource utilization more efficient everything that makes division of
labor more efficient they they don't like and And I think it follows from that psychological type.
The reason why the right right now is so revolutionary,
because the right in America right now is very revolutionary, and it's because it's
specifically reacting against a regime
and ideology, whatever, that it views as just completely
dead and illegitimate and wants to kill it, you know? So it's, it's the, the, the right is occupies a more progressive
teleology right now in society. And the left is in the, in a real sense, reactionary in a real
sense, uh, conservative. Like when it comes to all these, like, like think about like the,
the whole immigration argument right now with ICE and everything, the left right now
is directly appealing to like constitutional jurisprudence and everything, or at least select
or at least selectively taken constitutional jurisprudence. Like they are the one making
a historical case when like Trump's like first week in office, he tried overturning a Reagan
executive order. I can't remember who it was from, but it was rejected by a Reagan
staffer on the basis of his constitutionality, right? So they'll absolutely take established
doctrine, even extraordinarily old established doctrine or whatever, in a reactionary way to
defend their psychological predisposition, basically.
And the right will do kind of the converse,
basically fitting their, as I said, their psychological predisposition.
I think that's like the real divide.
Yeah, I mean, you can definitely see that with AI, right?
Because, I mean, it's weird because, like, if you say that...
This is so funny to say that the lipcards are the reactionaries.
I'm sorry, it's my only one comment. Yeah they are like they are right now but like if they want i just
like turn i i just really like doing the no use because like uh again it's like this is actually
like a libtard thing right like uh they got called cucks for so long that they started saying the
conserver cucks they got called snowflakes for so long that they started saying the conserva cucks they got called snowflakes for
so long they started calling conservative snowflakes in response like all of these little
all of these little boomer insults levied at them caused them such like psychic damage that they had
like mental breakdowns and tried to like know you with them like years later and they'll still like
they'll still be screaming in the comments saying like uh something that
implies that like the left wing or like the jacked ones or something like that and it's just like it
seems so like weird and flailing and impotent uh and that same like no you energy i think is very
funny to be like you know like you're the you're the real reactionary so like i'm gonna i'm gonna
even steal that from them and do it back it's really prominent in britain right now i mean
the entire basis upon which the the british left-wing government defends itself is the basis
of our values our british values right like that's their that's their favorite refrain
it was it was uh in the the riots during the summer and everything like that's like what the
the the pm uh starmer i think his name is he was constantly opining like oh our values
this is against our values like that is that's simply reactionary like you you can't dress it
up any more than that they're appealing to a prior a present or prior order for the basis of their
legitimacy it is kind of weird that they're like anti-ai though because if they want equality or equity
or whatever doesn't that like doesn't ai make art accessible to everyone like why is that an issue then at that point it's it's it's just breaks too
heavily into patronage basically a lot of the and again actually there there's more of a meta point
i think that that actually fits in with the framework i'm developing here in the sense like
the left as like a set of established institutions in the west at the very least
they definitely represent or are represented by like the current artistic paradigm let's say
so again it's they they they you you can make a case that like on the basis of this of this
personality type this psychological type the ai kind of maybe necessarily appeals to them more.
But I think people ultimately do like their
post-match.
So Hyperliquid is compensating users based on a price of 0, 3, 7, 5, 5.
If you were long, jelly jelly, that moment of delisting, they'll give you that price.
But interestingly, if you were short, you would get the lower price.
It's like a free roll, actually.
If you had a long and short on the same thing, you would have made money.
For what now?
For the Hyper Liquid Jelly Jelly. Yeah, Sue said that they they listed again at a 375
oh 375 yeah which is like uh roughly 4x the price of the beautiful
i can't believe i didn't hedge i can't believe i didn't hedge for this by placing
a 100 million dollar long and short on this $8 million market
cap shit point about a jellyfish. I should have known that this exploit was going to happen,
manipulating the market in 72 directions at once and resolving with my own profitability two days
later. It's a quick forex to be long short. How'd they even decide on that price well that was the spot price at the time
they delisted except so they settled yeah so 037 was the price of the time they delisted
they used the price of 0.95 to settle the exploiter and everyone else oh i see because it
was simpler that way and then later they compensated every retail who was long
or like non-exploder who was long.
And they said, fine, we'll give you the price of 0.375.
But if you were short,
they gave you the delisting price of 0.09.
So if you had like a 100K long and short,
you'd be up like a hilarious amount of money
because you're up 4X.
But like you're long, you sell at 0.375
and you're short, you buy back at 0.09.
All right, so. Pretty 0.375, and you're short, you buy back at 0.9.
That's so exciting.
Someone's typing. it's probably
probably Anu
he's got his epic
oh it's not
it's definitely not me
I think it's Sayuki
oh yeah there's no way you have a mechanical keyboard
I forgot you'd kill yourself
no I uh
no comment I plead the fifth
but there was no wait you actually
are you a mechanical keyboard cell?
One of those office clackers, dude?
They're satisfying, man.
They feel good.
You spend this much time typing,
you might as well get something that feels better to type on.
Dude, I just use the Apple Magic keyboard.
Or now, I use the Surface Pro Bluetooth detachable flex keyboard.
It's literally the first time I've ever had a laptop keyboard that feels better than the
MacBook one. They have just a little bit more resistance on the keys, but it's also the same
thing where they barely move when you type them, so you just type i feel like faster when you don't have to press it
17 inches down to hit the key yeah the up and down movement is part of what makes it satisfying man
like you you can have like a like a kinetically satisfying sensation off of like most anything
and the like the touch keyboards or the pseudo touch keyboards or like the apple keyboards like
the the low profile laptop keyboards none of those feel good.
Dude, I actually like, uh, one, one of my like really, uh, soy Jack confessions is I super love like the Apple keyboard, like haptics.
And like the only reason I wind up turning it off is because I'm also such a weird freak
about battery life that it drains it like an additional 8% a day, just vibrating the
motor like 400 million times when I'm typing. but if it wasn't for that i would totally do
it i do think there's something like uh like i think all of us have like independently had
conversations about this about how like uh like touch screens are like the pinnacle form of like
brain slop input like a touch screen somehow like uh makes you dumber when you use it versus like
a keyboard and mouse.
Yeah, I tend to agree.
I definitely don't like the trend of cars adopting giant touchscreens.
Like Tesla is actually dangerous.
It's the first time that cars had actually gotten like more more dangerous right like in every other way
they're mandated to become like super super safety sales right like your car you have like 87 driver's
aids that you need to turn off to prevent it from like uh manually swerving if you're like trying to
change lanes or something like that uh and then now they're just like what if we replace all of
the manual buttons and dials that you can just use easily while driving with like a touchscreen that requires 37 clicks and for you to like look at this doofy iPad in your car.
Yeah, if you want to, if you want to mess with the AC in your car, you have to go through like 14 different menus and you also need to know exactly where the the slider is for your
the slider is for like the fan intensity and the temperature and everything oh they're in different
menus by the way like you're right it is just dangerous it feels like dog to use it's like it's
it is the worst trend it's the absolute worst trend teslas are especially bad about it um
there's certain there's certain brands that aren't as bad I don't know is Sue still there I'm curious what the what the Chinese EVs are like with this with what the touch the the
touchscreen domination it's like your your entire like everything's computer the whole car is becoming
a touchscreen like our Chinese EVs like that yes Tesla's really bad. Definitely a trend for just a lot of screens and making it feel like an iPad.
But I don't know.
I think I just share this thing now where there's apparently robots used for model catwalks.
And I was thinking that I think AI and robotics is going to replace like super
random jobs that people don't think of first like if you have if you have like um the novelty
because the novelty aspects of replacing like a model with a robot i think is pretty it's pretty
powerful that's going to be one of the like most disgusting good fantasies of all time
like you see like an ai robot like doing the fucking catwalk hip swing uh and you see like
you know like i already know the quote tweet it's gonna be like uh yo like uh let's see what's under
the fucking dress uh it's not gonna be it's not to be good like like mannequins are already robots now so
the mannequins will move right so if you're like showing off sneakers like the robots just like
constantly running or walking you're going to have automated mannequins in a store like it's
going to be like uh posing like instead of having like a sock mannequin you're going to walk into
the uh chanel store it's going to be like posing with a purse for you yeah exactly exactly i i do think
that it's like it would be awesome for like maids and stuff like that because like the issue in the
us with maids now is just that like uh you just have to price in some level of theft uh
of like your nice things that get left out uh and like you probably can just say like well if i were to like uh amortize my
my theft losses like uh the what are they the shrinkage losses you could say uh over two years
i can afford a robot instead yeah no so i think for fnb and for like food and beverage industry and for uh the the like the the retailing industry like
clothes also like that was a big issue right like so both of these you'll have robot replacement
like very very fast actually like people don't also don't actually want to interact with the
human that much like they they used to but i think the next generation doesn't want to. Right. So is this so OK, when I when I go into a McDonald's or like, actually, I'm going to use I'm going to use In-N-Out because now that's my preferred slop burger joint.
Thanks to Anu here.
But if I go there, I still order at the counter.
Like I would prefer doing that over whatever like weird manual,
you know, like I don't want to go to the drive through.
I don't want to use a screen or anything like that.
I still want to go up and say, is this just like, I'm a boomer?
Why would you not want to use a touchscreen?
I much prefer using a touchscreen and just pressing the thing I want.
And then I get a.
It's the same thing with like the checkouts. Like I hate doing the self checkouts.
Like I always like going to the regular checkouts but then it's like if i only i usually only buy like five things
from a grocery store so now i'm waiting behind four carts that are filled with like 390 uh orders
from like a large family in front of me like costco is awful for this uh but yeah no i still just like doing it the normal is it just
like it's tradition i have no idea why i like doing it maybe i'm just like uh brokenly extroverted
i think that's the case you're you're definitely a people's person like most people sue's totally
right like the younger generation they they're very avoidant they don't want to deal with they
don't want to deal with the the human cost of things like calling someone on the phone in the younger generation is like
a terrorist crime basically like if you called someone unannounced yeah you have to like do
these weird things where you like uh can i call you now like you need like consent to like engage
in the act of phone calling uh or it's like rape yeah like there's sometimes
a period where like you can't reach like an employee or a dev in the firm and then like on
text and they're like what should we do and then they're like god god forbid we could call them
and then the worst the worst is you get them in the call and then in the call they'll be like
can we do this in text instead and And you're like, oh my gosh.
Like they're actually like, you think you have them.
Cause it's like, once you have someone in a call, you're so used to like, it's like, okay, the problem is going to get solved now.
It has to get solved now.
There's no alternative.
And then they're just like, no, what if we regress this to like a telegram chat?
And you're just like, uh, like that's one of the few things that actually makes me want to throw my laptop yeah it's you younger generations like so like i i've i've done this
like i've like met people and then i'm like yeah man i will i'll uh i'll invite you over someday
or we'll go we'll go out for a drink and then i will call them and they will tell me like this isn't me speculating i'm not extrapolating like
they will tell me hey yeah oh yeah sure we can go but it's weird you called and then like it's a
thing it's a it's a thing talking about my gumption to have called them to like set up a i'm not close
with you like that bro like i'm not like you think that we're close like that? You can just call me, man?
Dude, I don't know, man.
The only people who would still dare to call like that are old real estate agents, I feel.
An older real estate agent will just think it's totally fine to call you at a random time and tell you something.
Yeah, it's a boomer thing.
Because their generation has taught that you got to show initiative.
Don't be afraid to pick up the phone and make a call. because their generation has taught that like you got to show initiative you got to like
not don't be afraid to pick up the phone and like make a call uh like i'm the whole thing about like
yeah like walk in and give them a firm handshake type uh it's actually funny now because like the
walk in and walk in and look them in the eye and give them a firm handshake like actually if you
do this now what they will say is like go fill out our online application uh i think that's turning around i think you're a
mormon i think mormon that'd be like it's okay my theory is that in the coming in the coming months
coming years we're gonna move more back to like in-person job applications and stuff just to just to completely skip over like the remote work uh
the remote work grift not not the remote work grift necessarily but like the remote work ai
scam grift right because like there's there's crazy tools now to just dude like blow the
out like any remote uh tell like a software yes or whatever no do you
remember do you remember when david shore posted applications for his like uh his ml like stats
polling team so he posted this on on twitter right and he was like i want applications for this i'm
hiring for this position and what happened was like uh people gave him like 400, uh, like AI generated resumes like per hour.
Like he was just getting flooded with like actually invented people.
Yeah.
That happens.
I've seen stories like,
like,
like footage of startups trying to interview people and they have like AI
filters over their faces to appear like local,
that kind of thing.
They,
they,
they,
they can't do,
they can't do like can't do like uh
like video like video tech interviews like they always have some excuse because they're using
like ai the whole time like it's uh it's it's really really uh heavily exploited right now
and i think that employers are just going to get tired of it and they're just gonna
say yeah send your application to this po box walk in hand it
to the receptionist that kind of thing i think that's gonna more out of necessity than anything
that's gonna become the meta yeah it has become totally broken like i mean like hiring is already
sort of a spoon in the ass because like it was already like they're searching for like one good
resume out of like 400 one good candidate out of 400 and now it's just like oh my
goodness right I think it's a law skill to to do communications with like not a
video call but just like a phone call with just the phone it's like the blame
you know I thought like the boiler room wolf of wall street type of like persuasion that's a lost art i think like boiler room
is such a good film sorry i want to i wanted to remark i love that movie um like i had to answer
the phone in my first job at a bank um on a trading desk like that you have to answer the phone for everyone on the desk.
And so you like I think like I learned more about socialization and like three months of doing that
than like in like 10 years of living basically because you just get like so many like fast
interactions that you have to like deal with and like have to figure out the person's important or not just like put them on or like transfer them
um like now i don't think people have that experience as much like i think
people don't like they would just use like a internal chat or they would use just like slack
or something like no one would ever call just to tell you like i'm working on this thing like
i'm i'm trying to get this done like what do you think so
yeah it's definitely rare where i work and like the only freak who like actually like calls people
like walks up to them yeah exactly because you also just walk up to the uh and then like video
call i think is a little bit different still than like a phone call because you can see their face
so you can see their reaction to stuff.
But like if you just think about like the pure call without the video,
it's actually like an insane form of communication.
Yeah, you only have like intonation and immediacy to go off of.
Yeah, so Chinese people love voice notes.
They almost never text.
They'll just leave each other voice notes back almost never text they'll they'll just leave
each other voice notes back and forth do you think that's like a language thing like is is is chinese
yeah it is a language thing i think because it's easier to just like speak it like it like briefly
say something and you you can provide your tone better whereas if you type it sometimes people
don't know what your tone is so so they don't know if you're being serious or not. Yeah, definitely.
Oh, yeah. Chinese has like all the intonation and everything that like actually like changes
meanings of words and stuff. It's like a, it's like a very calm, like a Spurgler mentioned this,
like you were talking with him a couple nights ago, like, it's a harder language to like write
in and read than it is to speak. Yeah, I mean, speaking, I think it's a harder language to write in and read than it is to speak.
Yeah, I mean, speaking, I think it's easier to convey what you're trying to feel.
Whereas if you write it, it's too brief, actually. So English solves this with emojis and slang and stuff.
But I feel like written kind of uses, you don't actually have enough of this stuff.
Instead of people like, I'm just going to leave voice notes so you don't get confused and think i'm like mad at you or something interesting it's interesting you bring up emojis
as the way that like english fixes it because uh i know that like i i don't know like the number
breakdown too well but like english like uh does pretty well versus like a couple other like a
quite a few languages in terms of like information per syllable basically like a spanish especially
like you can kind of infer this just by like how fast like colloquially people tend to think that
like a given speaker of a given language tends to talk on average like spanish speakers tend to talk
very uh very fast like a lot of uh kind of thing is because like they kind of have to and because
in order to convey the same amount of information they have to speak more syllables is they kind of have to, because in order to convey the same amount of information, they have to speak more syllables.
Is it kind of the same deal with Chinese, do you think?
Yeah, similar.
I mean, I think what I noticed with voice notes is that people can, like, if you had to type it up, you'd be typing a bunch of stuff.
Maybe it'd take you, like, 20 seconds. If you just said it, it would you you you'd be typing a bunch of stuff maybe it'd type take you like 20 seconds if you just said it it would take you yeah um and i think like wechat
makes it really easy to just like you just hold down the button you say it hold down your button
you say it so like everyone does voice notes like there's almost no and it's kind of annoying honestly
because i actually don't love voice notes like i hate having to listen to a guy talk for two minutes
I don't love voice notes.
I hate having to listen to a guy talk for two minutes.
Dude, it fucking blows.
The Telegram premium dictate feature is the only reason why that feature is worth it, right?
If I wasn't able to transcribe the six-minute voice notes that I received from some people, it would just not even matter.
Well, six-minute is brutal.
My cutoff is if it's over a minute, I'm like, please type it or something.
This is definitely like an IQ cutoff is if it's over a minute i'm like please type it or something this is definitely like an iq cut off thing it's like if you read slowly then you i think you prefer voice
notes every time yeah it's like audio books basically yeah i think also like uh well i mean
with english it's sort of like if you're friends with the person and they're sending you voice
notes uh i'm always just like dude just use voice to text man like please just use voice to text uh it's so much you can also talk much faster in voice to
text you can a voice note uh i don't know but voice notes aren't huge in the west yet right
or are they i mean i used to always use voice notes i used to be like a huge voice
note guy but then the instant voice to text got good enough that i could just say like
it like i'm just gonna voice to text this i just started using that for everything
because uh you know i was like massive voice note guy like you already know like if you look at the
way that i send messages in communication it's like Sue will say like three words to me and I will respond with like six, like two sentence paragraph messages.
And then he will send another five words and I will send more paragraphs back at him.
If you convert this to like voice notes, you already know that my voice notes would be
like four minutes long and contain many things that are like tangentially relevant at best.
Anecdotally speaking on Twitter,
like people like to say that voice notes are like a brown person thing.
So I like an immigrant immigrant thing let's say
my my head always goes to like you know the unit information per syllable deal
i think just some languages it works out better definitely so this ghibli coin appears to be like
just designed to like uh wreck the daily runner shorters here this is going nuts
this is going berserk what is the market actually
what's the pump fun coins you're going to see it from the number so it's 39 mil oh okay yeah but um
what are the tools like 200 the new mudang yeah i mean everyone was like shorting uh this level like right here i think that was when i saw the funding start uh ramping ramping hard down and then it does this so that's like
like you don't want to short here and then see this candle
because almost always when it has a candle like this like a candle that winds up like
wicking up retracing to the bottom like it doesn't even retrace to the start of it uh it's usually
safe uh to say it's going up more i honestly think the trenches are massively back um and i think like uh we might start doing like a 1k to
1 mil challenge just like get shilled some coins on stream and then buy them and see what happens
like this uh this ghibli coin i think in one of the chats i was in like they saw it pretty low
like stuff that used to work and be like very obvious then stop working
like in the trump melania libra days but then now i feel like it's like working again it's like oh
like people are posting ghibli and why don't i buy this on a ghibli coin you know it's like that
was like the mudang logic it's like oh people like mudang i will buy the coin and make 50x now
thank you yeah it's like it's pretty funny so how many times have we had the uh
meme coins are over like it was a failed thing it's never coming back so i remember myself saying
it at least four times now in the last year so i now now every time i think it i'm like i'm
probably wrong so it's gonna keep yeah um i remember like last summer like i'm also like
historically like a late trend changer.
And I'm also noticing, I've said this so many times, and it keeps being wrong.
So by the time I notice, it's usually also the time when me counter trading myself stops working.
Yeah.
I mean, I still have these ETHSOL friends who are like, oh, finally, we get to pivot back to revenues and defy
but when you think about it there's like four coins you can buy in defy on like a proper
revenue thesis and they have the same product as four years ago as well so it's just um
it's tough to say i mean i think people people love to hate on meme coins because unless you either like do a meme for an in for business or you like are a plus uv sniper trader yourself,
like it's just strictly negative. You just like see this stuff happening. You're like,
guys, please stop. Please stop this and come back to normal.
Yeah, please. Please use a market device that I am familiar with.
Yes. Please just save in the token that I own the most of. Please stack it.
Yes. Please just save in the token that I own the most of. Please stack it.
Please come back. Please come back.
It's all like the parents. I feel like the old generation is like the parents and then there's
like the kids and the parents are telling the kids to come home and like, you know,
and the kids are just like running away from home.
Are you guys bullish?
I will say like, I'm pretty proud of myself
for saying that I think Fartcoin has
the retail sticking power because of the name
and then seeing how
Fartcoin has performed
what about Tickcoin? Is that going to be the next
there's something
I don't know what it is about Fartcoin but it's like the thing is that everybody already sees all crypto coins as fart coins.
So like when it would be like if shit coin was like not already like as overused, you know, like I've heard many when like TradFi people make fun of crypto, they'll
say something like, oh yeah, like it's cool that you made like $600 million buying Fartcoin,
bro. That's a real usable skill. Right? So like it would literally be like the stand
in. It's like a brand name. It's like Kleenex, except it hadn't been used popularly. So like
I just assumed that like when it actually became became a ticker it was going to do okay
i see i was trying to explain far coin yesterday at dinner with a chinese guy
and so in chinese what they'll call a shit coin they'll be like
which means like vapor coin they're like you know so maybe in like
chinese it won't translate as well but like i i think that farting like like pooping uh farting
it's like when you fart uh if you say someone is like fang pi like they're farting you're trying
to say that they're like bullshitting you basically uh which is an interesting use because i because
i think in english you never like if your friend says something you think is not true you would
say that that's crazy you're farting bro that's ridiculous you never say that right uh so there's like more of a negative connotation to farting in in in chinese
i don't know so this is how boomers use it right like they'd say like stop farting around or
something like that like if you're like yeah like and it changed uh it changed at some point when i
was like 15 people would stop they would start saying like uh stop jacking off or something like that yes if you were like uh circle jerk yes and now it's like if someone is wasting time now you say like
stop gooning off dude like uh yeah yeah i still hear dicking around a lot i hear dicking around
i hear dick here yeah
i remember like uh when i when i when i finally learned what like stop jerking off bro when i
finally learned what that meant uh i was like historically like a super low like uh like it
took me like an additional two to three years to learn what all the sexual euphemisms meant in school
uh so i was just like
wandering around like naively confused as everyone made these like sex jokes as they were all like
starting puberty. And I remember this period of like, just like absolute embarrassment at like
having not known what everyone was talking about for years. And I was like, Oh my God,
I must have used this to a girl in some inappropriate way.
I was the same way. I assume it was just because I was like a mega my God, I must have used this to a girl in some inappropriate way. I was the same way.
I assume it was just because I was like a mega virgin, like middle school and high school.
But I didn't have any exposure to it, incidentally.
But I don't know.
It's in hindsight, it's pretty amazing to miss out on lingo that common.
Yeah, like it was genuinely impressive how hard we faded uh the vernacular
i feel like the word gooning really pisses me off honestly because i think because it's so easy to
say gooning now it's just being used so much more like people used to be more like polite company
like they wouldn't say it but now they'd be like oh time to goon or
something and it's like he's like specifically referring to me some people like wars are supposed
to be ugly for reasons that you don't say it right but if you make them like too easy to say
then you people actually think about it and say it more yeah i think there's an adoption
period with some of these euphemisms where people are like oh i can i can be as crass as i want to
be but like like with uh not exactly plausible deniability but it won't go over exactly in the
same way as if i was being crass normally and then eventually it gets uh accepted enough that people
just start to parse it in the same way as like the crass words
that people were previously using it to avoid and then it just kind of becomes obscure like
it kind of becomes obscure in the same sense i i just like i like the word gooning because it's a
like a reclamation of uh you know it's like what we were talking about before where like
girls all say like oh like this is because you're porn-brained.
This is because just everything that they don't like gets ascribed to porn or masturbation addiction or something like that.
So I want to just say, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Everyone, we're just always gooning.
It's all porn.
Just fully lean in uh
so that's why i overuse it now art coin was in bloomberg yeah that's very funny
we need to get we need to get american spirit the link for this thing
for this thing. The Bloomberg crypto index. We were looking at the Nakamoto index the other day
and it's like, is the Bloomberg crypto index or the Nakamoto index? Like which one is more credible
guys? The Bloomberg index is just if it gets mentioned like number number of number of mentions of the specific token per unit time but like mentions over what like mentions in popular media like are we counting
the number of times wall street journal has well i was just thinking i was thinking i was just
thinking of bloomberg specifically but yeah i guess you can generalize it more it's um i mean
chat gpt is actually pretty good for this.
Have you ever, have you ever like asked it?
Like, what is like the news of like X like index?
Like, like what's the Solana news today?
What's the Ethereum news?
What's the, or you can do it for stocks as well.
And like, it actually will give you like some interesting stuff.
Sometimes I've never actually like tried to like make a trading strategy based off of it.
Like, like that, that that uh primitive uh
that primitive uh sentiment analysis but I wonder uh I wonder to what degree it would actually like
uh yield returns for like meme coins because the meme coin provenance is almost entirely just how
how uh how popular they are how trending how what the trend is
are how trendy how what the trend is but it also just gets so heavily diluted by ai across like
you know like the ai ticker bot farm replies like if you ever this is this is it's been going on for
like a year now but anytime you mention something that's like tangentially related to a ticker
you just get like uh it's like you post the tweet and then within like 30
seconds of you posting the tweet you get some like really really retarded reply that then itself
gets like 400 replies and then it has like 70 retweets before your tweet has like two likes
and it's like you know it's it's all like i get blackpilled by like the level of retardation of whoever
programmed the botnet right yeah you you need if if any kind of competent sentiment analysis
nowadays like needs to kind of be like manually tagged in some sense and in terms of like the
sources like okay like only only consider this like uh only consider this real if it comes from
like this set of accounts from these uh uh, from these sources, that kind of thing. Otherwise you will just get completely deluged.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know. Sentiment analysis is hard generating images. Easy.
Were any of the were any of the like studio Ghibli ones like uh did they did you just love
them because like my uh I've never particularly liked that art style like I'm like I don't like
hate like the studio Ghibli stuff but it's always been very like uh it's hit and miss yeah it's it's
sort of like mediocre to me and it's very mid it's very mid-curve. Yeah.
And then now seeing it all over the timeline by people.
And it's like, the more that I consider someone to be mid-curve, the more that I wind up seeing them post these Ghibli edits.
Someone for the entire last two days that I had previously been like, you know, like I like this person,
but like they seemed sort of like a mid curve to me.
And then you go through their timeline and the whole thing is literally just like 34 Studio Ghibli,
like a chat GPT edits.
You're like, you're confirmation biasing me too hard right now.
I also don't understand why, why is that the style because like when I saw that my
first thought was like uh okay like can I make this in the style of like any other anime
like can I like why not just pick one that you like the look of more uh I I did try this with like uh i wanted to make like a goofy like uh like xd sociopath like lelouch
code code g word i'm not even gonna try and pronounce that one uh code yeah and uh it wound
up making this really goofy like 3d model that was like a very un it looked like an unsettling humanoid robot covered in blood.
And so I was like, well, maybe that's why they're not doing it.
Maybe it just doesn't work with anything other than the Ghibli stuff.
Yeah, templates really well for some reason.
Yeah.
I think that OpenAI, they're pretty canny about marketing.
It would not surprise me if, because mean i mean look at like sat like like uh certain open ai employees that we're uh we're familiar with or like even said like they're
all using ai made ghibli avatars now right right yeah it's like so they're using like the specific
filter that they know that they've like uh it's like we've run we've run infinite like uh pre-training
trials on the ghibli filter we know that it can shit these out
without question everyone like yeah you try anything else and you're like i don't know bro
i don't know yeah because uh because i i don't uh i don't know it's actually let's let's fire up
chat gpt i don't even know if i have uh if i have access to it anymore i think i'm just like i think
i'm just like free tier now because I stopped using chat GPT.
I wound up,
I wound up canceling my,
chat GPT one.
And like,
I think I have like a Claude and I co-pilot,
but I think the,
there was,
there was one model.
I forget which one it was.
Maybe like the three update that they did where like,
I just was like,
well,
this actually used to be good and they've somehow made it much worse. Uh, and in my like show of like, I, uh, I, I just was like, well, this actually used to be good and they've
somehow made it much worse. Uh, and in my like show of like petty protest, I like canceled
my $20 subscription. Uh, but it is good enough that I would pay for it again now. So it logged
me out. What's the point of this?
They all log you out after like a 24 hour session now for some reason.
I'm unsure why.
I hate this now. I don't want to support this company anymore.
Even less so than I already did.
Everything that doesn't let me sign on with a Google email, I'm just like,
you've failed the Lucas test. I will not purchase your product.
Yeah. If it doesn't remember my logins
and it doesn't let me sign on.
And this is also horribly bearish
for crypto too,
because this is basically me saying,
fuck security.
Just let me use the thing.
I don't care.
I don't care if you have all my data stored.
I don't care if XYZ. And that you have all my data stored. I don't care if XYZ.
And like, that's the whole point of crypto, right?
Yeah.
It's cryptography, right?
I don't even remember my chat GPT password.
What the fuck?
This is awful.
Yeah, Aptos guy is in the room.
He may grab the mic.
So if you hear another person talking, that's not me.
It's probably him.
Aptos guy. Aptos guy. it's probably him aptos guy aptos guy who's who's on the aptos we've got well sue's on but he just like decammed uh then we've got uh our boy anu i guess i don't know i don't know if uh he's already
put his handle up here so like yeah fuck it man i'm enzo back to enzo yeah i think it was that was that was a big like waffle
on my part i think just uh kind of uh i've noticed that more than anything else rebranding can induce
the sense of like uh just giga waffling yeah we may have had our own we may have had our own
experiences with uh like rebranding waffling yeah it occurred to me like like what am i like afraid
of it's like uh it occurred to me that like any like any negative thing that could happen to me
like associated with this account could also happen to me with like a rebranded account
so it doesn't matter what like your entire thematics or like yeah just make yeah well just make like a
this isn't me like if you've been posting with like a long history across like a certain name
even if the accounts are banned so many people were asking me like people were making like making nfts
and they were like yo you should like change your profile picture to this i'm like bro like
half of the equity of my account is just that my profile picture is funny. Right. So if you change it,
it's like you,
it's,
it's weird.
Like,
I'm not sure the value you put on it,
but like,
there's definitely a lot of like,
I don't really remember the handles that much,
but I can see someone's profile picture and know,
like,
like I get like a snapshot in my head when I'm scrolling through the timeline,
like within like a few seconds,
like,
Oh yeah,
I like this guy because of X,
and Z.
But if he changes profile picture,
I would have no fucking, I would have to think about it for a minute.
Who is this guy?
I know it's not even like the picture itself.
Like, I don't know if I've ever actually clicked your picture, but I remember the color scheme of your profile picture, right?
Like there's actually a lot of people who you'll, it's, it's like that thing where you might be in the same exact class as this guy for like four semesters and you've sat next to him all the time and you're like, you're good boys.
You've seen each other down at the bars all the time.
But like you realize at some point junior year, you don't actually know his name, right?
You have no idea what his name is.
Yeah, yeah.
So you're just like, yo.
It's like the joke where it's like if you forget her name, take her to Starbucks and it'll write on her.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's one of those things.
But it's like that same thing with profile pictures where like I'll have known someone for years and I remember like the general colors of their profile picture and like the shape of it.
But like then one day I'll click on it like two years later and I'll be horrified.
I'll be like, oh, my God, like that's what it was.
Like, this is so hideous.
Or like sometimes I'll be like, wait, this is like that's what it was. Like this is so hideous.
Or like sometimes I'll be like, wait, this is like a totally different thing than what
I expected.
Who has the most recognizable profile picture?
I would say it's, I mean, honestly, it's gotta be Murad or honestly basic scenes.
Yeah.
He has a, I always remember it's like the, I don't remember based ever because like on
right wing Twitter, Jason Bourne guy, it's the Matt Damon on, on right wing Twitter. There's like an infinite number of people with that
exact profile picture. Mirage. I actually littered like the first like 400 times I saw
his accounts. I just thought like, oh, this is like a racist mutual. Like this is just
a random guy who like posts of like the Hitlerler video edits or something right i love this guy
i don't know who yeah i was like oh wow like this again and uh so it took me a while to figure that
one out um murad's profile picture is actually like hyper memorable but i hate it so fucking
much it's insane yeah i like it right it's memorable the problem is that like it has uh
so like the twitter the twitter profile picture dimensions
are like 400 by 400 uh and so that's extremely low resolution so when you take something that
has like diagonal lines it like it pixel artifacts them in a way that is hideous right because it
cannot provide enough detail that these diagonal lines are represented as straight well at that resolution and so like every time i look at
it i'm just like fuck god damn it it's like it's like it's like it's like one of the it's like if
you go to if you bring a girl to like a museum for the first date and it's like not super interesting
art but you have to act like this is like super interesting and oh my god this is so abstract and
like i'm i'm just
looking at it and thinking like um that's that's really what it reminds me of like actually every
time i scroll i see that it's like it's like you just went on google maps and you're like okay
where's like the next like art venue and then you just that was like the first thing you saw
i don't know if there's some deep meaning to it maybe who knows but uh well i mean it's very it's
very irritating to me also because it's a profile picture that feels like
it would have been like somebody would have it on like AIM messenger in like,
uh, you know, like 2009.
I see them every once in a while. It's the old, um, the old X-Box,
you know, the old X-Box they had like a 10 photos you could choose from.
Yeah. It was like the one blowing the bubble gum and, uh, some, and the others i can see them in my head but i yeah those are classics dude those i
see that and i'm like okay he's probably gonna spit some real shit he's tight tight tight yeah
it's funny those were decent yeah mine i don't even have that the hd like image like i i think
that this was i got my profile picture whenever people were just starting to experiment with AI.
And they were just, they were putting like, they were kind of like wiggerifying all these characters.
And I saw one with Buzz Lightyear and he was doing money spread.
And I was like, I've got to save that.
I don't know when I'm going to use that, but I've got to fucking save that.
You know those really like the airbrushed SpongeBobongebob edits of like spongebob and patrick is like
gangsters dude i minions too those are funny i need i need an ai filter that can do that i don't
need one that can make things studio ghibli i need one i need one that can give it the spongebob
airbrush gangster filter yeah that would honestly be the next 10K per month at SaaS
business. If you're a little hustler
out there,
and then crypto times are bad,
shitcoins are topping at 2 million market cap.
Might be a good move. Who knows?
Big market out there.
Probably a good move.
Probably a good move.
We're watching on the screen move we're watching uh we're watching on the screen we're watching ghibli shorters get actively btfo
and it's like now that we've said this also now that we've said this also uh that's like
someone on the stream will long and then they'll also get btfo so uh it's a coin it's a coin that
you just have to watch right i? I heard it completely vamped.
I'm not watching charts at all, but I heard it completely vamped, the Pui's meme.
Because the Pui's, you know, that was like the advance.
And now I think even the White House post is sort of headed with the Jubilee or Jubilee filter.
So it's like, I'm pretty sure after that, at least what I heard was, there was like a huge vamp.
It was like, people were like, I'm done playing with you.
It's like the Toy Story meme.
It's like, your time is over.
Like, fuck you.
Like, I'm playing with a new toy.
Yeah.
Well, I think something that people are really underestimating is like the extent to which like when a coin like loses attention, it can just become totally irrelevant and stale.
Like the speed that this can happen at, right?
I guess it depends on the market maker. Going back to to the whole like they're almost like uh they're like
ominous like you can if the coin goes up oh the market maker like you know didn't like like who
cares maybe sometimes if it's going down okay like wow like this market maker sucks like we need to
like fire wrench remute even if he's not even there. But I don't know.
It's always funny.
I always like poking fun at the market makers.
I had a tweet today.
I'm surprised my engagement was falling off.
I'm starting to think maybe I didn't level top.
Maybe I really like top disciple.
No, not really.
I had a tweet that was like, what was it?
It's like, you know that meme where it's like the stock market,
like emotion kind of like, you know, that meme where it's like, it's like the stock, stock market, like emotion kind of like, like I forget what's the name of it.
Everyone's seen that photo of like the whole like stock market cycle. And it's like euphoria fear that whole cycle.
There's like one part of it on the way down where it's like,
my investments are with good companies. They will come back.
But I said like my investments are with good company.
My investments are with good market makers will come back but i said like my investments are with good company my my investments are with good market makers they will come back that is actually true
so anyways i've read the point but i was uh i lost the point midway through so fuck it's over
yeah but what are your fundamentals what what are the what what's your fundamental trading strategy
um like just hold one coin and like uh take over the blockchain and just bring some real fucking motion that's kind of my trading strategy i don't i don't i don't look at like trading view
i i just i try to coin gecko i'm not even like shitting it it's just like yeah like looks good
today aptos guy yeah that's that's honestly like that's literally why like what i'm doing behind the scenes
right now so uh yeah but no but but i mean i that is actually what i'm doing but like um
yeah i do have a thesis i've already shared it a lot of times though but i can give it a high level
like i need to get better on like an elevator pitch i've been i've been told i'm like really
bad on the phone uh
because i just like waffle which makes me a great podcaster because i can just fill the
fill the void with uh with noise but uh yeah i think i think they're gonna do well for stable
coins uh specifically like if you know the lore with libra odm i mean this is like the team that
built out like all of this infrastructure specifically for stable coins before it was
cool right like 2018 like stable coins were still pretty small yeah obviously they balloon now but
um yeah just from like a cost perspective like speed safety with like move um and these guys
are very well connected there's like a cabal uh within the facebook days call this like libra
consortium and you know paypal is there and you know visa and mastercard and stripe and i think
i think there'll be something equivalent uh if they get the network effects which i do think
they will get later this year especially i think there'll be some equivalent of like a like a
western tron where you can you know like let's say you're at the convenience store in certain cities
you could probably use stable coins and pay for things right yeah um i think that's that stuff like
that's for like the price appreciation obviously like people can use it and like
the price goes down but like beyond some like crime of like market makers just like giga
sending the token um because it's like relatively low float uh i do think there is a potential
pathway which i definitely want to work towards just being very transparent like i want to get the retard bid in this coin in ways that i don't get indicted for that so like
i can't run like a market manipulation scheme with a hundred thousand filipinos bull posting
because then like i'll get thrown in jail um that sounds very fun though i would be hilarious right
i've been like a bot farm with filipinos about like Apto's looking good here and just like social engineering the entire timeline.
Previously, it was just me on Twitter.
People thought I was like botting or something, which is like hilarious
because I was just balls deep for like three days with Adderall and coffee,
just like reply guying.
But no, I do think like I think getting the retard bid is actually very important
because retards are kind of,
are actually a form of price agnostic buyers.
Like they will not look at the market cap or the FDB.
They will just like buy because like the TV said so,
or because like some like retard influencers said so.
So I ultimately think the number go up game,
which is what most coins are playing is like,
who has the most price agnostic buyers.
So whoever can find multi, ideally multiple sources of these price agnostic buyers can be like
um either governments because they don't make the money so they just don't they spend it frivolously
they can be retards and retail who don't look at ftb and like market cap and there's like maybe a
few others like niche situations where if the foundation you know they minted tokens out of thin air right but like if they use this apt to you know or your token of choice or you should
point l1 of choice could they use that to buy something in the ecosystem right they're kind
of the price agnostic buyer too so i think the number of up game is yeah mostly about price
agnostic buyers and like if you want the retard bid i do think aptos could potentially get that
like later probably more like early next year as things progress like really the retard bid i do think aptos could potentially get that like later probably more like early next year
as things progress like really the retard bid is like xrp it's like algorand quant like all these
like dino tokens that literally do nothing but just like lark and put headlines out if if aptos
really gains trajectory stable coins and payments and they're kind of running it back with these
people that they had connections within facebook like, like Visa and MasterCard and these sort of entities.
It's not hard to imagine after stablecoin legislation comes through,
and there's a basic framework, which is like, hey, if you do these three things,
you can create a stablecoin and you will not go to prison, right?
It's like you're going to have probably JP Morgan, create a fucking stablecoin,
Revolut, maybe transfer, like basically any, any entity that's like, has some degree of like network effects. Like they have some
customer base, maybe like a hundred thousand customers or ideally a few million customers.
And they have an interest in moving money. They're either going to want to issue their
stable coin, especially if they're very large, because they can get like that four to 5% like
treasuries. Like, I don't want to say risk-free that's kind of a naughty word but like it's just like it's just extra money on top they could be getting um but
at the very least i think they will uh there will be a lot of new people experimenting with stable
coins um so i think like you're talking about like um that like subscription problem with with
all the ai right like like jimli or whatever right and like i do think there's an opportunity to kind
of disrupt the subscription space because i mean i had some mentors who were like large in the subscription space so i'm like
pretty familiar with the kind of the whole like the mrr like monthly recurring revenue kind of
kind of situation uh beyond like all of the scamming shit that goes on but like there is real
fatigue with with consumers like just like your average like like stay-at-home mom or whatever
she's like hey listen like there's you know inflation or rah rah like things are
inexpensive like I don't want to be spending $500 a month on these like
random subscriptions so they're starting to cancel these these kind of plans and
insurance kind of increasing so the big problem with subscription is like you're
paying for things that ultimately you don't use like most subscriptions you
guys probably have if you were to like really do out and like check your like like your your um your statement like
do you like maybe netflix or something if you're like a normie like you watch that but like do you
i mean i don't know do you use like like some cloud service or something you signed up to
eight months ago but still rebilling you probably, right? So for most of these services, it actually makes more sense to do like micropayments
where it's like you, if you're consuming,
like whatever you actually consume, you pay for.
Now, micropayments are very difficult to do
in the traditional payment processing world
because they have all of this outdated legacy infrastructure.
That's why like it's very rare
if you're paying for things online,
even in person with like a POS terminal,
it's actually very rare that you'll find something things online even in person with like a pos terminal it's actually
very rare that that you'll find something that's under a dollar and it's the reason is that like
there's just all these middlemen in between in the traditional kind of payment space not even
just visa mastercard but like like there's just like a thousand others there's like interchange
i mean there's like there's like a thousand people in between that and yeah it's an enormous network
it's ridiculous yes they're just this and and yeah it's an enormous network it's ridiculous
yes they're just this and and just the infrastructure is so bad like basically they have something that works from like the 80s and they just like never touched it again
and they're just like well trillions of dollars flows through here like we can't like it
up or this whole like system could just like absolutely nuke uh but with stable coins it's
very interesting because like if you're on an l1 that has very cheap gas fees like you know soft shield like aptos and they're like very like hyper optimized for stable coins i mean the gas fees on
aptos are actually the cheapest it's like one 100th it's actually even less it's actually a little
bit misleading it's but it's absolutely less than one one hundredth of a cent to send like a peer
to peer transaction stables so you could actually like you could have a few people completely
reinvent the wheel um with like some sort of um have a few people completely reinvent the wheel
with like some sort of, I don't want to say reinvent the wheel because it makes it sound too complex, but like
all it takes is like a few apps that become big through some sort of like micro payments model or like, like for example, right?
Like, like you're giving the AI example of like, I don't want to put in my email and do my iris scanning and put in my credit card for a trial that I'm going that i know i'm gonna get rebuilt on you know aggressively in two weeks what if like you know for example
like there's all these news sites right like i'm talking a lot i know there's all these news sites
right like if you're on i don't know if it's bloomberg or new york times or whatever but like
they might they'll probably survive but like all these people are on social media just like going
directly on like twitter and stuff like this but like how are they going to monetize right like ultimately like
a lot of these a lot of these entities were getting bailed out by like usaid and all these
like kind of like like slush funds in the government that's kind of that's kind of being
cut away they're going to need to find some way to monetize or they're going to have to like
close up shop so like i could totally see like a few of these like kind of like mid-tier
like publishers who are like hey we're going to experiment with some sort of micro payments model
where like if you put out an article and i'm sure everyone's been there really like you click on
you know some blog post and you're reading like the first paragraph and then you see the paywall
and you're just done it's yeah and it's like if you leave immediately yeah yeah but like what if
it's like hey you can continue reading like of, not a ton of people have crypto wallets right now,
but like it could change in a year or two if a lot of people are on boarded. Right. Like,
you know, maybe it's like, oh, connect your wallet. And like, however many words are on
this article, you pay like, I don't know, like a tenth of a cent for 10 words or something. Right.
And maybe after you read the article, you end up paying like 10 cents or something. something like if you were to do that in the traditional world it just literally is not possible
like there's just not enough meat on the bone to even make that transaction worthwhile but with
stable coins it absolutely is possible and you know that brings there's a whole i mean this is
all hypothetical ifs and ifs but like yeah i don't know i think to summarize everything before i keep
speaking like i do think this like for stable coins
specifically they're getting king made in a huge way and if there's any category that's going to
have a super cycle it's absolutely stable coins i mean like if you think like the u.s government is
not going to like pump their bags like you're kind of a fucking retard dom is sending you uh death
threats right now he's saying if this guy keeps talking about aptos instead of ox uh which which one uh the the one that works with
ox he's uh he's the he's the cosmos guy right no no no he's he's uh i think we uh i think
i think we've hit our outs quarter for 2020.
i'm sorry bro yeah the first quarter yeah i'm sorry bro he let me drop the mic i asked politely
the first quarter yeah i'm sorry bro
so you'll have to mute me i guess i i actually can't mute him because him and i are on the same
mic i've created a very funny prisoner's dilemma we have uh i i've been going through and i'm
looking how much drop off was there i'm very curious. So it shows cumulative viewers. So it mostly just shows that it stops growing instead of
drops off. But what I've been doing for this past little minute here, I've been looking at the DJI
drones, right? So these are the Chinese botnet scam drones. I've been looking at like their agricultural offerings which they didn't have like
a couple years ago but now they have an entire uh they have an entire product of industrial drone
that can be entirely like it's entirely designed to do like terrain mapping so it goes and it takes
like a lidar map of like everything and it's just like uh the chinese drone company is like meant
to spawn embassies i think that's
kind of the purpose of it i mean i don't even i i think i think it is a fallacy to say it's
meant to spy on embassies it's like it's just meant to spy on everything like it is literally
uh like trying to do terrain mapping for like what are you actually buying but is this the
app for some drones like because dji is a company in china that has done like world historically great
at combining like multiple different verticals that they have products in right like they acquired
Hasselblad and started using because like they initially just made drones that like you could
control a little flying thing and then but they had people like strap gopros to their drones and
eventually they were like wait this is retarded we'll make our own cameras so then they bought
hot Hasselblad and then they made their own gimbals for the drone
uh and then so they started selling gimbals separately and then also they started selling
like a gopro competitor separately and then now also they're making drones for like movie and like
lidar mapping and like all of this and now they're making batteries because they were like well in
order to have like the drones fueled by stuff like uh the money e-commerce is made in upsells, downsells.
Most of the time, the main product you're advertising is some sort of loss leader.
And then once they're a customer, you have their email, you can recontact them essentially for free.
After they purchase, you're like, well, hey, you purchased this, but if you don't order these two or three accessories, your shit's not going to work the same.
You need batteries, and obviously you can charge more on those or, you know, there's some sort of. So, okay. So you
used to plug your, your smartphone into the like drone controller and use that as like the screen.
And then they were like, well, actually let's just make our own, let's make our own iPads.
You plug it right. Like it's, it's just every single time they've needed to do like an additional,
like they've needed an additional technology to like expand a product line.
They've had like one generation of like, I guess we can just use this other thing.
And then they're like, wait, what if we just made it ourselves?
Right.
So like they're just growing like massively.
I actually have like you can see on my computer, like I have a DJI sticker on the back of it, which is like.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, it it's it's sort of a meme like i
actually like i mean dji makes great products but i'm actually kind of scared of them like if there's
any like one actual company that is like spooking me as like a threat to like u.s like national
security it's not like tiktok it's actually dji i'm scared shitless of them i mean i don't know
the whole lore of the drone stuff i just remember hearing snippets of something like obviously like there's a lot of like chinese
like companies which are actually doing a great job like they're i mean honestly they're making
a product that people enjoy like that's a good thing for people but like i think there's i don't
know the situation entirely i don't want to speak out of my depth but apparently there's some sort
of like u.s laws which make it very difficult to sell drones so like literally the only options it like
are chinese ones which is very very strange i forget what the law is i don't know if somebody
in chat knows you can look it up or something but like um yeah there's i heard some people
complaining i feel like that there's some weird rule in the u.s you cannot sell oh yeah i think
it's like you need a license and extra license.
And so like,
Well, you need you need like a pilot's license to use a drone.
Something you need a pilot's license to fly a drone that is over 250 grams.
And most of the ones that are under that are just Chinese.
That's like a chicken.
Like that's like nothing like 250 grams, like a single chicken.
Yeah, it's a quarter of a kilogram.
Like it's very, very light.
They really fucked drones after people
frankly had too much fun with them they just
they uh just had to longhouse it
they're very geo locked now
like I had one and
it's like you think you can fly it around freely
but then you come up on this uh
you go
sayuki's back I gotta get this guy back
in the stream
yo move his camera around Yo, Sayuki's back. I got to get this guy back in the stream.
Yeah, move his camera around.
So we have talked about Aptos. We've talked about drones scamming all of us with Chinese technology.
What's the Aptos bowl angle with drones?
No, no, no, no, no, no. There's no. I was about to start.
I don't know if Palantir makes drones.
I think Palantir has like the software backend.
Palantir is part of it with our good friends.
Good friends of Ox, good friends of Lucas,
Flyby Robotics.
This stream bought to you by Flyby Robotics
and Cat Orman.
Listen, if Palantir airdropped me, i'd bullpost the fuck out of them all right but they don't have a token so i'm not i'm not opening a brokerage account i'm not
free free market drones are quite scary actually you got some of these guys talking about incoming
aptos palantir integration palantir is just like a mega software framework like they like basically every single
one of their big products is uh is just some kind of huge like data collation framework that's just
better than absolutely everything else yeah i mean they're yeah i don't know about them but like
they're like a deep state software org or something right like this kind of their like it's like their pitch or something or i get i get uh i get like talents here and
oracle mixed up but i think they're kind of similar right uh they're definitely different
they're very yeah yeah yeah oracle is like a database company so oracle's a database company. Oracle's a dog shit company. This stream is not brought to you by Oracle.
So we have one of our employees is messaging me saying, put Ghibli on the screen.
Nobody's going to trade Orca.
And while I like sort of understand that, Orca is also at max negative funding.
Like that's how I found it.
It's like somebody's trading this bitch.
Somebody is doing it i don't know if you're
following the i got an airdrop for walrus it's like the um it's like the storage they're gonna
see it at launch i don't know if you guys have any thoughts on that oh we have a lot of things
at max oh wow this is crazy we've got uh one of these total green like uh dildo machines that's
at like uh it's at that support level where you're like this is uh
not looking too good i really can't imagine like staying short meme coins after they went
90 down like why would you remain short at that point uh bowden i think because you were you were
short from 90 higher is why i mean yeah i guess you're i mean that was my stance was like i can
just hold the shorts right like it could pump like uh 4x and you're like okay well it still kind of hurts though like to
watch that pml evaporate i don't know it really doesn't because like you've been making so much
on funding yeah if you picked the right ones right like if you pick the wrong ones you've
actually been paying which is uh that's kind of a meme though right like i mean unless you're doing
some huge sides right like the whole like oh but i'm like it's it's almost like a cope it's like no funding is very funding
is very real sir like uh i'm on a trader so hey i'm not like uh i mean if you're holding meme
coin shorts you've probably been doing it for like a month or two and if if it's like 1200 apr
like that that's pretty decent right like over a month or two like you know you're making like uh one to
two x just off of funding what do you think of the the bonk guy situation like when i think of
funding rates it's so funny i think of him because i think he's paid like millions in in funding
right but he's keeping this like bonk long do you know this guy or no i i i don't even know like the
lore of it other than like it was like this marketing thing where this guy did like a bottom
take a gig along on bonk and now he's allegedly a billionaire or something the lore goes apparently he had like 16 grand and he
just like opened the bonk long and he just like held it like way up and he's basically fluctuating
like like low i think it's like high seven figure like low eight figure like kind of like p and l
swings but he's still in the green so like hey, hey, good luck to you, sir. What is this TUT coin?
This shit has even higher traded volume than Ghibli does.
Nobody knows.
Maybe Dom will message me.
I have no idea, yeah.
Maybe Sue knows.
It's actually funny that you're talking about it and like on stream and the price
just stays exactly the same yeah we're washed like we have zero influence right now at all
i mean like i wouldn't i wouldn't uh buy based on what that what i said about it right like
you know i said i i said i said like it's sitting on that support level where it looks
kind of like it might be over. And then I said, oh, the funding is massively negative.
I wouldn't consider this to be a hard shill unless you're just explicitly counter trading
me, which is, I mean, that's not the worst strategy on memes, definitely. But this chart
just doesn't look super great, right?
I mean, I think it looks pretty bullish, dude. I don't know. Huge green dildo on massive
negative funding. Isn't that a pretty classic setup?
It just looks like it wants a little more down before it does anything. I don't know.
Maybe I'm a washed boomer here, but I also don't know even why this-
I think it looks great, honestly. The I also don't know even why this-
I think it looks great, honestly.
The chart looks great.
I'd buy this chart.
We can come back to this in 24 hours and we'll see.
All right.
That'll be a funny segment if you have anyone who's on.
Obviously, you don't want them shilling super low-cap tickers, but you'd have some sort of framework where you talk about some coin and then like 24 hours you see like okay were you an idiot or were you actually
like smart here oh yeah like would you buy this chart that would be a good bit we could do we
could do super cycle dow consensus and see which what what our positioning is on majors and whether
we're retarded or not.
What is your positioning on majors?
There needs to be some way to... I don't know if obviously you put money involved or something, but maybe if they're super right,
they get like a...
I don't know if it's a permanent spot on the podcast, but maybe they get like a week on
or something or a day on later.
Who knows?
It could be an interesting kind of angle there.
Yeah.
What is my positioning on
majors dude i don't i mean i don't think bitcoin looks bad at all like uh it can always do the
thing but like this this chart looks uh like it's turning around a little right like the
inflections here it looks like it's gone from a flag to a uh like a half pipe lucas really quick
go back to tut i want to test something out.
I got a synopsis from ChatGPT. I want to see how accurate it is.
That looks pretty
bullish to me, man. I don't know.
I'll check it again in a day.
It's just like that's such a big green
candle to not have a
retrace.
I don't know, man.
When I see it bubble forming i'd rush into why did why did this coin randomly pull like a forex in like four minutes because somebody shorted somebody shorted
well chat gpt claims that it's a developer's tutorial on launching a token on the bnb chain
a transition from a testnet example to a mainnet meme coin.
Its primary aim is to
promote building on the Binance smart
chain and offer educational content.
This coin literally went
up 3x in 5 minutes.
This is one
5-minute candle.
This whole move was one candle.
My Binance team is eating.
Somebody got him. You ask if it's real, Say sayuki it then claims a 24-hour trading volume
of approximately 181 million i don't think that's true no i think it might be hallucinating the
whole thing yeah i i'm pretty sure that's the case it says the trading volume is 3 million uh
here on our readout but i don't know actually what that is pulling from or yeah is
that only like is that ox is that oxydonated yeah it is right uh i i think that might actually be
like global like it might be pulling from dex yeah this is like because i don't even think that
okay so that move that i talked about before it was actually a three minute move if you break it
down on the one minute candles here, chat GPT.
You see something go up 300% in three minutes.
You don't want to buy that thing.
I mean, come on.
I mean, especially with the overarching like.
Oh wait, no.
Everyone's bearish.
Everything's a new.
Really?
This is the trading volume on, on ox, not the global trading volume.
Okay.
That's major.
Tuts addition to prominent exchanges,
notably Ku coin significantly boosted its visibility and accessibility.
The anticipation of subsequent listing led to heightened trading activity
reports of 180% price surge following the Ku coin announcement.
It also had a victory in the
bnb chain meme coin innovation competition this endorsement enhanced market confidence
and provides sustainable liquidity facilitating increased trading volumes this has to be ai made
i mean i'm actually looking at the website and it seems somewhat accurate like it's called tutorial
coin it's on BNB.
That's actually kind of impressive.
I wouldn't think that ChatGPT would have that in its training data.
Did it search the web for that?
It searched the web.
The up-to-date stuff, actually.
I can actually look at the sources.
Grok, somehow, if I ask it about my own account, and I say, what is the average engagement this week versus last?
Or just basic questions.
It will take a tweet, and it will be like, this tweet that you've posted has 17 engagements, 14 likes, two replies, and one retweet.
And it will be a tweet with 5,000 likes and 300.
And I'm just like, what?
How are you hallucinating? This is the one thing that you should not be up like how does twitter like no
matter what they do they cannot make the thing searchable like you cannot search through the
search bar you cannot search through grok you cannot search your dms like every search
implementation they released is somehow up in like the most like ridiculous
way what do you think i've actually noticed that the dm search is getting a little better
like i think they're fixing the dm search a little bit but the dm search is definitely improved
actually like what what do you think their database looks like to to gimp their searching
this bad like there it has to be something horrific like that like that's the only like
conceivable reason i can imagine
one thing that i noticed is that if you change your username it breaks search for all of your old posts you actually have to search your old username for your old posts yeah yeah
no that was actually uh there's one very prominent big account on ct uh like a very sort of noble
do-gooder type who uh actually rebranded
his account from like an old like pump and dump like scam group thing uh and like had i guess he
had too many followers before he wanted to like go back and change that uh and uh yeah that was
that was the way that everyone on CT learned about this. Interesting.
Yeah.
You're doing that sub, what is it called?
Subtweeting?
Where you talk about somebody, but you don't actually say their name?
Well, yeah.
I mean, this isn't really, it's like, I... I don't know what you've been spot here.
I just think it's funny.
I would, I'm just doing him the service of not saying the thing, I guess.
Being a gentleman, as I say.
Is there something happening on April 2nd? I don't know if it's just my timeline, but I've seen 10 things where wait on April 2nd? Because I don't know if it's just my timeline,
but I've seen 10 things where
wait until April 2nd, there's going to be
some fucking truth nuke. Is there something
in macro? I don't know.
I'll ask you to do it.
Is there something
happening
on April 2nd? happening the decentralized tech summit is happening that's my answer
i think yeah i don't know it's not gonna be that i thought it was some big macro
meeting or you know who knows but it was a big macro meeting or, you know, who knows.
But it was a big macro meeting.
I think I'm just getting
engineered to launch something or
some manipulation from some KOLs.
I don't know.
Oh, really?
It's apologizing to me now.
You really just can't.
You really can't ask it about, like, current
things because it just doesn't know. Like can't ask it about like current things.
Cause it just doesn't know.
Like it only knows up to its specific training data endpoint, like end date rather.
Yeah.
What do you guys think about robotics?
It's kind of like, it's kind of like a slavery fractal.
It's kind of bullish.
What do you think?
Is there a coin called robotics?
I like robotics i like robotics a lot in general but
like i i mean i made a big like uh and it was sort of like a uh another one of those posts i
make where i imply like a much lower level of like uh knowledge or involvement about a thing
to trick like a bunch of people who like uh are like very overconfident in their own like
subject matter knowledge to like reply with like a very obvious thing but like it was basically a
bear post on humanoid robotics because like i think the actual use cases for humanoid robotics
are like not as high as anyone thinks and everyone's like uh response to this is like
but everything is made for like a humanoid shape so like we have to make like a
humanoid robot to like but it's actually very difficult to make a humanoid robotic like a
humanoid robot and like there's there's very few cases where like you can't actually just still
use the like operating like control system built for humans with a non-humanoid robot like if
you're gonna make a self-driving car you do not need to make a fucking humanoid robot to do it. You can actually just plug something in that has two servos to
push the pedals and you have another two to steer, right? Yeah. The ones that look-
I think what you're not thinking about though is you can fuck the robot. If it's humanoid,
you can have sex. No, no, no. I actually said that in the voice too. I said the only consistent
use for humanoid robotics is for sex.
But that's probably one of the biggest markets, right?
That's going to create billions of dollars.
In 100 years, it's like 80, 20 sex robot market share to everything else.
Yeah.
We're literally never getting back to replacement fertility rates, man.
I also don't understand how people can think that we can
get back to replacement fertility levels because it's like hot take what if you made a robot
don't want us to come back to it because they no longer need like infinite slave labor expansion
because they have ai and they have like increasing amounts of robotics they don't like living around
the slave people.
The middle class doesn't actually want to get it back to replacement because they all don't like –
men and women don't really like each other now,
and they don't want to have kids even if they do like each other.
And the low class will probably just keep having unprotected sex
because it's what they do.
The low class crashes out really hard in terms of fertility as
well like it oh really yes they do like like lucas you remember a couple nights ago i was
talking about the pine trees and the pine cones like how depending upon like the degree of resource
constraint like literally like root like like root space and canopy space competition certain
types of conifers were released like a certain, uh, uh, a proportion of pine cones where some of the pine cones just immediately
seed.
And some of them will literally wait until a wildfire.
And the more competition there is like, like root competition can be
competition, whatever, the more resource constraint there is,
the more that these pine trees will favor making the delayed seeds.
The ones that like wait for like wildfires and so forth.
I think it's the same deal with humans it's like um like you like you go to like uh my family moved out of la in 2005 right and
then every every year we would go back and we would visit and everything and it would be like
a little worse each time it would be a little worse a little more crowded until we've uh visited
during covid when everyone was like locked uh basically like locked themselves away and self
and self-exile um and it was like paradise it It's like, holy shit. I didn't realize that LA is
actually like the best place in the entire world. If you just like reduce the apparent population,
like a fourth of what it was, right. It's like, I'm pretty sure there's some similar mechanism
in humans where we, we have like, we, we're basically like the, the emotional reactions that we have
that result in like lower fertility rates and everything are basically like kind of
inherent attenuation mechanisms to, yeah. Yeah. Like if an area becomes overpopulated,
you just produce less children. And then if it becomes like, if you're out in the middle of the
woods in a log cabin, you knock your wife up like every nine months on the dot.
Yeah. And she's just shitting him out. Yeah, exactly. So I'm, I'm pretty sure like,
that's the case, like, that's the case right now. It's like, it's why, it's why I said like,
I don't know, like, do we need to go back to like, like, uh, to replace fertility?
That was exactly what I was thinking is like, I think everything will sort of fix itself if you
want. And the idea that you have to like sit there and like actively manage people having
kids is sort of like
uh you know like god god is already managing it you're probably not going to do better
i think that there is a bull case to be made for like if you're like a like very rich high
iq genius xyz and so forth to like actually start pumping out some kids because eventually like when
it when we do reach that inflection point, you'll have a much higher market share
because basically everyone else has been defecting.
Yeah, I do think it's retarded.
It's much more retarded than ever now to be a rich, successful family and be like,
oh, kids are bad for the environment.
They're farting too much methane and it's blowing away the ozone or something.
There's five or 10 examples. I do think there is some like attack vector i don't know like uh i
want to name names here but like you know it's like there's so many attack vectors that they go
after the uh kind of fertility right like because i mean it's like the old expression which is like
cringe now but it's over you by all means name the names man name them because there's a jew in this
room bro i don't want to do that.
I'm pretty good for a first place.
You're like anti-Israel.
You get an exemption, bro.
We're good.
Lucas's right-winger's first Jew.
Easy mode.
He's one of the good Jews.
The Jewish mascot, Stan.
You're like spinning the Hitler sign.
Yeah. I spun the wheel before you guys even knew about racism oh the tariffs on april 2nd that's right that is what it was
the more i look at this this toot chart the more i'm uh the more
i'm like i don't know the other thing is like if it's like a binance incubated coin like it's
probably just dumb to like short it outright uh because like you can always just get btfo'd by
like finance labs there's nothing in a binanceated coin? I'm not super up to date. What does that even mean? They have like a like an incubator token launcher thing.
They offer I think like BNB stakers, the ability to buy these coins.
Yeah, the BNB tokenomics like that, that is powerful. Like whatever he's doing,
he's doing some like alchemy witchcraft on Binance.
I think it's just like they buy it back and burn it with exchange revenue, right? That's pretty much all. I really don't think it has that crazy of tokenomics. I think it's just like they buy it back and burn it with exchange revenue, right?
I really don't think it has that crazy of tokenomics.
I think it's mostly that BNB is like, they've basically figured out how to be an exchange.
And they're very efficient.
And they're very good at what they do.
And they're just going to continue grinding up until something actually kills them.
And it gets much harder to kill them every passing year.
They're owned by the feds right now.
The US feds took over Binance with the whole CZ plea deal thing, right?
I'm pretty sure.
They have oversight now.
So it's pretty much entrenched.
They're not going away.
That's really funny.
Like Binance, Binance feds, that'd be...
Here's something to write down.
ChatGPT says that there's a few upcoming crypto launches,
or token listings, I should say, excuse me, on Binance.
Mubarak, Broccoli714,
which we've seen, bananas 31. so like sounds like gems right here
i mean i mean one of them was tut like we're looking at the chart right now
what is that man somebody got so american spirit is is saying that it was only Binance USA that was taken over, not Binance Global.
I don't know about that because Binance USA is dead now, right?
I don't know any soul that uses Binance US except for somebody who doesn't know how to navigate off the sex ghetto.
And he doesn't know what DeFi is or something or doesn doesn't know what like a self custodial wallet is.
All of those charts were like,
I do remember last cycle where there would be like a chart that had like a
wick down like 98.2% on Bitcoin or something.
Like there was one where I think,
I think Bitcoin actually wicks down to like 12 K or something on like a
finance us last cycle,
because somebody fat figured fat fingered like a Binance US last cycle, because somebody fat
figured, fat fingered, like a multimillion dollar sell. And like, there were just was not close to
enough liquidity. So like people were getting like, like imagine getting filled at like 15K
on Bitcoin when it's at like 56K or something like I would be beyond you for it i remember uh back in 2017 i was watching like the coinbase eth chart
and it wicked literally from like 290 to like two dollars or something like that in about a couple
minutes and then it just completely retraced all the way back up it was nuts oh wait you're talking
about the coin like the gdax eth one yeah gdax it was
on gdax i guess it like hit a bunch of limit orders and stuff and it was like just turned
into a cascade it literally went from like almost 300 bucks to like sub two dollars and yeah i think
it was like 93 cents or something but yeah like i also i got gig liquidated in that one uh and then
like i actually i actually was about to like quit crypto after that because I like, I, that was, that was like the first time I ever like blew up, blew up.
And then they gave me like $1,200 back.
I didn't realize they made people.
It was like a tiny amount, but they, they basically said like, by accepting this, like a compensation, you agree you won't sue us.
And I was like, well, I'm not going to sue them anyway, unfortunately I was like well I'm not gonna sue them anyway unfortunately so like I'm just gonna take the 1200 and then I like lost I lost
like 900 and then like that that's the remaining 300 wound up being the amount that I made like all
the money from the cycle from it was a good uh yeah that was a crazy day though. I remember it happened and I just went to the
grocery store and bought 10 packs of raspberries and I was like, this is how I'm going to cope.
I just sat there. I went out. I sat on the hood of my car in jeans with no shirt on.
How much did you- You said you only lost like 900 bucks? Is that true or-
Did I what?
How much did you you said you only like 900 bucks is that true or did i what how much did you lose uh i i don't remember the it wasn't like a huge amount i think it was like eight or nine
thousand and then they gave me like 1200 back uh and then uh i lost 900 of that 1200 and then it
turned around that was the point at which i learned about ICOs. At that point, I was still like so retarded.
I didn't even understand about leverage or perps or anything.
So I was only just holding spot.
Didn't really bother me that much, but it was just wild to watch that.
Like just crashed to nothing.
Yeah.
That was back when you could still lev trade on Coinbase or GDAX.
I think it was at that time.
That was back when there was literally only three coins on the exchange.
It was like BTC, ETH and Lite litecoin that was it yep yeah yeah what's happening with litecoin i think the
intern's carrying that account right is he still pumping the coin i know like a few weeks ago he
was like i don't know like he was pretty active and zero man i'm like when is it zero against bitcoin
like what's the value prop of litecoin i actually don't know like is is at zero against Bitcoin. What's the value prop of Bitcoin?
I actually don't know.
Is it just like, this is Bitcoin, but faster?
Yes.
That was always the value prop.
It was the silver to Bitcoin's gold, which is just...
Yeah, yeah.
Although I will say now they implemented Mimblewimble.
So it's kind of like has privacy qualities
and it still listed on a lot of t1 sexes so that's cool
but it doesn't seem to have done much for the price yeah the thing about privacy is i don't
trust any of them except for monero like the whole like like zcash could be like literally perfect
like it could actually be like perfect like tech and i would still look at them like yeah but you're
on like you know all these big exchanges and like so I don't really believe that your tech is really that good.
It is good.
Monero is removed from, I'm like, oh, their shit must be cracked.
Yeah, but did you see the news about the ring signatures?
I don't know.
Getting kind of cracked.
The dark web or whatever uses it.
Yeah, they do.
Someone just released this paper about um basically they were able to
like reduce the ring signature anonymity set to like all like two addresses because of i can't
really like go into the technical details because i'm not a cryptography nerd but i mean i kind of
am but i'm not that smart to like explain it but it's pretty bad actually like there's like some uh
bug that caused the anonymity set to be like severely reduced so now even monero is kind of
like like it's cool i think monero is super base it's like one of the main reasons why i got into
crypto in the first place but um i saw something a few months ago that apparently i don't know if
this is like a like true or not, but apparently obviously the chain analysis people, they have like connections to like feds and stuff and they watch like they work with IRS and these kinds of people.
And apparently some internal video leak.
I don't know how true it was, but basically they were doing some presentation and they were basically saying like, yeah, like if it's like Monero, like we can't really do much.
really do much. That's like the TLDR.
That's like the TLDR.
And they try tracking it down, but it's
And they tried like tracking it down, but it's like it's very hard.
very hard. And I think they
can control some... I don't know if it's a validator or a node
or... They can control some of that
like fixed flow. They might have
some sort of setup there
that they can sort of track it, but it's
very difficult.
I think you're talking about address
poisoning. So when you withdraw
from a sex, they can
mark the transaction in such a way
that it's a little bit easier to differentiate.
Yeah, it's very difficult.
It's not a reliable method of annoying.
But there was already techniques to reduce the anonymity set,
and then this thing came out where it can reduce it even further
because there's actual bugs in the Monero code.
They've been there for a couple years,
and the Monero devs were aware of this,
and they never released it publicly. So yeah, it's pretty concerning um z has just like another thing
it's a good it's good privacy tech but it has that trusted setup where you have to like trust
the people that set it up in the first place so yeah i mean i i don't hold any monero but like
i could totally see like um in a few years like I think privacy is really like a big issue.
Like if we're,
if we're going to onboard the,
you know,
the it's like all the VCs live about like 1 billion daily active users.
But like if we get anywhere even remotely close and like every,
a lot of people we know are using blockchain and there's just like all
this like public information,
like privacy is going to be a huge like kind of play.
It really isn't though.
Like you think it would be,
but people do not give a fuck.
Like look at the performance.
So true.
Study Lucas.
Study Lucas on chain.
I mean,
they,
well,
here's the thing.
It's actually sad because they should give a fuck,
but like the majority.
I just,
I just think it's over.
I just think it's over.
I think it's not entirely true.
I mean,
I think there's actually nothing that I could do that would be both livable and provide me with any level of security. Like,
I think in order to be like as secure as I would feel is worth the effort, like I would have to
basically spend my entire day. Like, I mean, it was the same thing with like not doxing, right?
Where it's like in order to be anonymous on the internet while you're like doing any amount of business with anyone else, you just have to be such a weird freak about
everything that you wind up saying like, I'm wasting three hours a day trying to be like an
anonymous cartoon on the internet. And then you're like, what is the point of any of this even? Like,
what consequence do I suffer if I am not anonymous? And for many people, there are consequences.
Yeah, for many people, there are consequences. But for me, when I looked at it again, I was like,
wait, I actually don't have consequences. I'm just being a retarded spur.
There's that old Fed truism that like, oh, if you don't have anything to hide,
then privacy is no big deal, right? So just don't do anything wrong or whatever.
I mean, the main thing is that I don't have anything to hide
because I've been so clumsy with all of my information anyway, right?
Many people who have been less clumsy do have things to hide.
But for me, it's like I'm out here.
Everybody in my real life knows my Twitter.
They know I'm hanging out with Twitter people.
Everybody knows all of the personal intimate details
of my life at this point. If I didn't document them on Twitter like a retard, I was documenting
them on YouTube back in the day. You could just encyclopedically reconstruct every piece
of data you need about me through just my random internet ramblings. So like, uh, I, I was sort of in a world historic,
like most retarded to be anonymous case, right? Like there are people definitely who it's like
less retarded, but, uh, for me just no, it made no sense. Well, the deal like, like a right-wing
Twitter criers right here, no one necessarily wants to be anonymous
it's a defense mechanism right so insofar as the the culture becomes a little bit less repressive
blah blah blah whatever uh the necessity for it just starts to disappear um i think that like
going back to like the bitcoin thing and bitcoin's notion of like, you know, private public ledger, blah, blah, blah.
Kind of oxymoronic.
You know what I mean?
That was all in reaction to like a much older paradigm, like very reactionary to the subprime mortgage crisis.
Like all this shit changes.
Some of like the more ideological stances
are very momentary.
They don't last. They're not Lindy.
And I think privacy is
just one of those. I mean,
the conversation
earlier with Sue about like phone calls
and like walking to people in person and everything.
Like the reason
why Zoomers are so like
hesitant about like just called just just like real
life sociality just generalize it um is because of just how fractious like the culture is like
there's nothing for them to identify with there's no there's no like shared values for people to
even like have some premise on or some some uh easy premise to like approach people with right
so like they just opt out, right?
But that's a very momentary thing.
It's not Lindy.
It's not going to last forever, right?
The generation after Zoomers, they're going to be more exuberant.
10 years after the financial crisis, privacy doesn't matter as much.
10 years after the cultural nadir of the 2010s or whatever,onymity won't matter so much. It's all momentary. There's more constant factors at play with human sociality, I think.
was also tuning out for some because i was thinking about some other things but like
it's not like i was being such an asshole i'm just being like honest but uh with the privacy thing
like i mean i i think there's a point where you push people too far and then they like overreact
like um i remember like on facebook there was this like cambridge analytical scandal where like
i used to run ads right and like my stuff changed a lot after a lot of the normies got mad. Like, Hey, what the fuck? Facebook is using my data.
Huh?
And cause they think that was a fake show.
I know it's a complete bullshit.
I know,
but like check Meta's market,
like check Meta's a stock price,
check their market share,
blah,
blah,
blah.
It's like,
it didn't matter at all.
Like,
like that privacy,
privacy is probably like one of the most fake signals ever in terms of
like the quality of
the product. Facebook came from DARPA, like lifelong. And, but the thing is it might not
change the stock price, but like from an advertiser's perspective, it absolutely changed.
Cause I know this because like, you know, like, yeah, but that was political pressure. I mean,
the only reason anyone ever cared about Cambridge Analytica was because it was because of the DNC.
Like they felt like they got burned by it because it was basically their scapegoat for for why they lost 2016. oh it's in a litica bros because of the
big data dude that like like none of that was real like none of that nominally had anything
to do with privacy i'm not saying i mean i i totally agree with you here but i'm just saying
that like um like the general perception among normies is that like oh my god like i can't trust
facebook and say obviously like they're using your data for something else anyways but like on the advertising perspective it was like
i remember because i literally would get ad accounts banned because after the camera and
analytical stuff if you put the word you like literally like y-o-u in the ad too many in the
ad copy too many times facebook would ban you because they were like bro you're scaring the
hose like for an example if you put out an ad and it was like,
are you in New York city and single, then you should check out X, Y, and Z.
It's like, well, if you're a user reading that ad,
it's like a little like dystopian. You're like, Oh my God, this person,
like what does this advertiser know about me? Right.
When the advertiser actually has limited information about like what exactly
you're doing.
So basically Facebook would ban your account
because they're like please stop scaring our fucking users like they're they're like actually
spooked right now so you have to be like very careful with your vocabulary and you couldn't
use specific words you have to be more vague and like that really affected like campaigns and
so yeah but i totally agree with you the fact that it was like really overblown like it was
like this is just like complete like i don't say it's a hoax necessarily but it was just like completely like gobbledygook garbage um well it kind of what it
kind of was a hoax and the pretense that the hoax was sold on was the privacy thing it's like
it's like literally like anytime you're like trying to advertise something on the basis of
privacy like it always falls apart like telegram well like big privacy like oh what about the
peer-to-peer encryption bro um telegram eventually like you know gives like data to the feds and people still use it because like it's the it's
the underlying service no one cares about privacy necessarily yeah i mean the thing about advertising
is that like like you just put your head back and you were like yawning or something it's funny
you're like bored as fuck no but the thing the thing is like you if you're bored as fuck. The thing is, if you're a user... Advertising is actually really interesting.
We're really stoked to hear about advertising right now.
I know. I'll stop.
Stop fucking right now.
Lucas, I got to say, I really like the aesthetics
of your camera right now, bro.
You're in the dark. It's like emo
Lucas or something.
This is purely a factor of
how dark it actually is in Taipei today it's like all rainy
out here i don't know maybe we can uh we'll just do a giga giga dox pan type shit uh there's not
a vitamin d straight up doctor location no big deal right yeah so like it looks pretty shit dude
yeah that's not even missed that's like pollution yeah so like is taipei generally kind of rainy and wet like that or
uh that holds the past few days it's actually been really nice really warm out like it's been
good but like you you can tell like the the level of lighting in here like i have these lights on
there are other lights in here but i can't there's one right above me but i think the light might be out or something uh so it's not working
giving like scorned lucas yeah yeah lucas vibes having this thing where like if i go and i stream
from our apartment where it has like all white backgrounds with like really like a high kelvin
temperature like led lighting like everyone says i look like a sheet white aids patient where it has all white backgrounds with really high Kelvin temperature LED lighting.
Everyone says I look like a sheet white AIDS patient.
And then if I do something like this in this lighting,
people will comment and say that I look Turkish.
And so I'm oscillating between all of these.
When you lean back, you kind of look like a super body.
I don't think you're like,
you're not hairy enough to be Turkish, man.
I don't know.
No, no, no. You just don't i actually i actually had laser hair removal surgery uh to
hide my turkish genetics from you is that when you also got the nose job to hide your jewish uh
lineage you think i got a nose job to hide this bro look at this i can't even see it you're like
i can't even see it you're like a black like visage does this look does this look hidden
do you own like a star of david necklace i have uh he has a tattoo i have honestly been debating
buying a uh like a star like a like just get like a 24 karat gold massive star of david necklace and start wearing
it around on like a cuban chain or something yeah like cool i i support that you actually have a
tattoo of it on your back is that real no okay there see look at this i'm being called i'm being
called brown again uh actually no my my's like the whitest dude I know,
except for the Jewish part, but.
I actually have like shockingly,
shockingly white, like ethnic background for how like mystery meat I look.
Pull up the 23 of me, bro.
Let's see it.
I'm only going off of my parents,
so is the thing.
I've never actually gotten it myself,
so I've just like recombined theirs and assumed that I got a 50 50 split. Yo, I'm actually kind of like
concerned because they're like filing bankruptcy and I definitely did it because I'm retarded.
But, uh, so I logged in because I was going to like delete my data, but then I was like,
they have this option to execute it. The gene mapping company that's filing for bankruptcy you know that there's like at least
10 people in the company that are like okay like i know it wouldn't be ethical but like we need a
lot of money right now and like people are willing to buy the genetic sequencing the ceo like resigned
and then said specifically like uh i'm gonna bid on this so That's already like, yikes. Did you guys do that?
I was like,
I have the option to delete my data
right now. There's a button that you can
do that.
There's a button.
You can delete it.
I don't know, dude.
I want the raw data.
I downloaded it before, but you can download
the actual raw data i like download it before but like you can download the actual like raw data like all of your elite yeah like you can you can they give you like uh okay based
on like xyz like genes then we know that you have these traits no no it's literally your raw
your raw genome like in like the atgc format like in a text file that you can download so like i uh
i was like shit i kind of need this.
So I'm like kind of gambling.
Like I requested the raw data
and like gambling that they're going to get it back to me
so I can delete it in time before they file bankruptcy.
I don't know.
I mean, I probably cooked anyway, to be honest.
Like it's already in there.
If I delete it, it's probably still there.
Let's be real.
I'm going to prison.
For what? Being on this stream uh violating violating parole
yeah they're calling you turkish look at this you for real look turkish as a turkish like i'm being
just turned dude just turn the lights on they'll see your blonde hair and blue eyes. I have the lights on, dude.
That doesn't look like it, man.
You do not.
There's only one there.
Okay.
I have like half of the room lights on and there are the ones on the other half.
And if I go over here, no one can see me. And if I move the camera over to where that is, then everyone who walks in the room just gets Insta-Docs.
You need like light.
You need to get...
Dude, how have you spent...
You spent thousands of dollars on
podcast equipment you haven't invested in a lighting setup i mean are you even serious about
this you think i've spent thousands of dollars bro i've fucking stolen all of this shit what do
you think i spent so long in la doing like why do you think i lived with the vape cabal bro like
they had six more cameras before i stayed with them i do have i should use uh what's going on with them anyways i can put this one up
facing out at like the taipei mountainside and then i should have another cam i have my like
panasonic i should put that in and connect it so it's just pointing right at aptos guy
uh just dots him non-consensually.
Dude, I got to say, I got to say, for how many cameras I have around constantly running, I do a really good job of not doxing other people.
I might be a world historic, best face doxed person who doesn't fuck everyone else just by proximity.
Now, the girlfriend, she's probably the worst
she might be the most the most unhinged accidental doxer in the entire world yeah she was saying my
government i'm like i know it's like he he says his name he like introduces i said my literally
literally one time like after having used his other name 50 other times, at one point, he
randomly says, he makes a comment about his government name, and then she just instantly
sticks onto that.
And then she starts only using that on the next day.
That's surprising because she didn't do that to me at all.
The feminine impulse to do more brutal doxing work than the entire US federal government
could ever
hope to i feel like people were like insisting on calling me like sayuki when you guys were here
like uh i i don't know what i wanted to sayuki name yeah you do i told you like i think this
is the thing with like guys and girls guys will like they'll be like oh his internet name like
that's how i met him that's his real name and then girls will always be seeking like what is his real name like i must
i must read into the real person by using his real name because this other one is fake right
whereas it's like to me you're just sayuki like you could tell me your real name 100 million times
and it just it doesn't matter i already know your name right you're basically telling me
like irrelevant information that's true which i guess for you it doesn't matter because it's the
same you just go by the same name it's just all lucas like you can just always be lucas actually
relatively op like i i've made so many like internet like uh pseudonyms and stuff that I had years and years of experience knowing what it's like to go around to conventions and introduce yourself as incelkiller69.
And I was like, I'm just not going to do that again on Twitter.
I'm just not.
A killer who is an incel, by the way.
I pulled this site.
I know that's for fun.
I actually kind of regret it because it's a cool name, but it's difficult for people to actually say out loud.
So when you meet people in person, it's like, I don't know.
That's the only thing that I regret.
I also just assumed you were like a hopper.
I was like, oh, this is the same thing.
That's what everyone fucking says.
They're like, oh, I thought you were like a little Asian dude.
I'm like, dude i'm like no i assumed you were a really tall really skinny asian guy who wears those like
super expensive jeans like that was exactly what i thought that's interesting like uh
like yuzi although no one else knows who that is
there this is there i don't know if i'm being nagged passively or not but uh they're saying
it's it's the charisma but then this is the now they're saying turkish people are not charismatic
there's no armenians left didn't they get genocided we have the i don't know what this
emoji is this is like a a mega backhanded recovery compliment.
It's like, oh, you fucking Jew?
No, because you have a lot of money and Jews are wealthy.
You're good with money.
You know what interest is.
You know what interest is?
You're willing to lend to me at a high end.
Comptown interest is actually going to fucking gigawash the Zoomers.
I'm getting more and more worried. I'm a zoomer hyperbole in all
ways, but I'm realizing that like, they may actually like just they just keep signing
contracts without reading, they just click accept. And like many of these contracts involve
like a compound interest. And they just don't seem to like have the ability to understand like
time value of money. If it's like, if it's less than like a hundred
percent, they're just like, it doesn't matter. Right. Isn't that just because they're young
though? Like they'll, they'll, they'll learn as they get older. Well, that's what I thought
about millennial women too. And they just continued not paying off their college debt or like,
they're like, they're doing their like minimum like a payment payment on a college loan such that the loan value
outstanding is increasing despite the fact that they're making monthly payments, right?
I think that your main problem there is that you're assuming women will learn from things.
Saying if Lucas is Turkish, I'm leaving the stream.
I guess I can't be know and now yeah so i guess jewish is of a higher caste than turkish that's actually pretty surprising i mean actually it's
not where you go there's some places where it's like you know in like gaza jewish is probably
not going to be like their highest caste uh girl math yeah girl girl math it's like the same thing that this is very uh so i made what
was the post um let me go and find this one but uh a couple nights ago we had paul a woman definer
in here and he's the guy who posts all those financial audit clips like that.
That YouTube show of that guy who just like interviews like retarded Zoomers about like their horrible financial decisions.
And it's just all people who like have no fucking idea that they're going to still be paying their loan in 30 years if they just pay the minimum payments and they like have no idea.
years if they just pay the minimum payments and they like have no idea like he has to like he has
to like think of like massive like incredibly calm like incredibly complex and circuitous
like uh ways of explaining in order to like abuse them into like understanding the idea
that if they don't that uh like if they get like a like an 1800 loan for a manicure and then they
only pay the minimum payments they're still going to
be paying it in like 10 years and they'll have paid five thousand dollars on an original loan of
of uh 1500. like that's real that like that's girl math like it turns out it turns out that
like there's a certain type of person that's impossible to explain why girl math is wrong
yeah this is why this is why predatory landing works.
It's actually an item ceiling thing.
It's actually a very difficult thing to introduce.
And when it's made a fundamental part of society,
but literally only 40% of society
is capable of understanding it conceptually,
you're actually just signing everyone up
to get gigafucked.
There's no way around that.
Yeah, I think the most... That's why the Jews have gotten kicked out of 109 countries, by the way. actually just signing everyone up to get giga fucked. Like there's no way around that. Yeah.
I think the most like the Jews have gotten kicked out of 109 countries.
It probably is.
Really?
it really is.
That it's like,
if you do enough compound interest,
like if I promote compound interest to enough people and try to profit off
of this,
I'm like,
I will probably be killed.
Like not even,
not even like,
like we're genociding the Jews, but like Lucas specifically, like if I do like, I will probably be killed. Not even like, oh, we're genociding the Jews,
but Lucas specifically. If I do this, if I were to create a product that predates upon people
by extracting large amounts of interest payments from them, at some point, someone will get mad
enough that they will kill me. I have a mediated self-interest in not doing that because I don't
want to die. I think there's a lot of like jewish people though who don't have that instinct
they have the opposite instinct it's just built into their blood
to issue loans and speculate we can't we can't do like uh i don't know if we can do anti-semitism
like that was an anti-Semitic.
I love it.
I want to marry a Jewish.
We're very pro-user.
What about that was negative?
I personally loan to very delinquent borrowers all the time.
Yeah, I love it.
Okay, okay.
Anyway, so I was talking about like this thing where
like women have like this, this hyperstitious or like superstitious belief that like, uh,
there's only like a certain way to do things, right? Like if you're vacuuming,
like you must use like a given vacuum head or you must follow like a given pattern when going up and
down the carpet. Uh, or like when you're washing something, you like, you must follow like a given pattern when going up and down the carpet uh
or like when you're washing something you like you must use the dishwasher or like you must like
hand wash a certain you know like just a very right thing like this like a wood wood handle
then you have to hand wash that one etc well i mean that one's real right like yeah it's true
sort of complaining about that because like i think this is something that I've actually heard from just a fuck ton of guys.
They're trying to keep their kitchen knives sharpened, and the wives just insist on just chucking them.
And they keep putting them in the dishwasher, dude.
They keep doing it.
How does that dull a knife?
Is that real?
Well, because when you put it in the dishwasher, it doesn't inherently dull it, many of the dishwashing like uh detergents have an abrasive built in it helps scrub things off of the surface so when
you're wiping it around so now you have like an abrasive in a tumbler on your knife edge which is
obviously bad but then beyond that nice knife like that's like damascus it'll like actually
fuck like the acid etching and you'll like literally get like uh like degradation along
the edge as well yeah depending upon the ph of the detergent like literally get like uh like degradation along the edge as well
yeah depending upon the ph of the detergent like you don't want like submerging a laminated wooden handle in like uh water for two hours it's bad yep and then also the big thing is just that
like it's very rare that when someone puts something into a dishwasher they're like really
careful about it right like uh usually they're just like ah just fucking
toss that bitch in there and then they take it out and they like put it on like a stack with a
bunch of other plates and now you're just constantly nicking the edge of the blade and
it has all these little divots in it and uh it becomes actually like it's one of several things
that women do that just like retardedly like rape your kitchen knives another one is like when they're
scraping like they need to like let's say they've cut a bunch of like leaks or something and they
need to scrape them instead of using the spine of the knife they will frequently use the blade
of the knife and then just chip the living shit out of it uh one thing that i've noticed with
women is that they have absolutely zero spatial awareness. Like they do not have a
understanding of how big things are, like what would fit into a specific space without measuring
it with like a tape measure or something. Like I can just look at something and like a piece of
furniture or whatever and be like, yeah, that's clearly not going to fit like where you want to
put it. They literally cannot fucking understand. I was writing bikes home with a girl and uh
i was just like no it's fun you just like ride between the pedestrians it's not a big deal
uh and then i realized that it was actually impossible for her like if there's like any
level of pedestrians in the path uh she just cannot get around them there's no way uh so it
was like she can't she can't conceptualize can't conceptualize it. Like 40 minutes for her.
It's like a constant source of irritation for me, actually.
It happens in grocery, uh, grocery stores to like the pathfinding where it's like,
you're like, Oh, you could like, we can push the car quick. The Costco,
there's a Costco opening. Go, go, go.
Then you get time rugged. You're like, huh.
It's called usury LMAO.
We have...
This guy is saying that he fumbled a lot.
Now I'm being called pure.
They called me like Turkish, and now they're calling me pure,
and then they're going to call me Jewish again later.
Hmm.
They did not believe in it at all.
They just pumped and dumped i'm scared to like pull up a video on stream like uh especially when it's called like
shitcoin shitcoin cto yeah it's like i don't know dude like i love bro it actually is just
like a video of some guy like uh shitting like that seems like now it's like we're
all banned from here here i'll bait it i'll bait it really quick is there actually like rules like
what can we not do here i think we're not supposed to like uh say like slurs generally i think like
the uh the fun f1 with six letters is probably banned
this is such a scam it's actually funny like this actually might be funny
it's just the guy it's just like a soy jack talking into the camera with like a phone with the fucking address with an address it's five minutes long the market has been down super bad he dude he's in a bathroom he's in like
a public bathroom no play this video it's funny as fuck what you're saying i should play it yeah
i'm saying you should okay let me see if i is it gonna let me dude i can't even copy the text of it this
guy this guy's a god this guy's the funniest guy alive actually he's called shitcoin and he's
shitcoin cto
wouldn't it be funny if he was like an indian person paying someone to do this like wouldn't It's that one.
Like he's in a bathroom, dude.
It's got the disability bars by the toilet and everything.
Why is it not?
It's probably no sound.
Yeah, audio.
Put your input device as your microphone. So it's not going to stream in the audio.
Oh, so true.
It is funny, though is especially how i think he has hair plugs this guy
hold on hold on this guy doesn't these aren't hair plugs he just has tattoos where he's balding
way what wait wait are you sure they're not like moles or something like no no he's not like moles
or something up here but look on the sides like look over on the receding edges dude it's like
tessellated it's like a pattern you're right that is oh yeah he like tattooed his fucking hair on
dude kitty uh shit coin can you intro us to this guy is this you like please reply
this is amazing this is how i'm gonna like reverse norwood myself i'm fuck the hair transplant i'm just gonna
go at that shit just get just get a tattoo all over your scalp where you're where you're
miniaturizing
i could actually go one step further and just draw it on every morning with a permanent marker
so do you do you think he's like got his pants down while he's sitting
in the toilet here no the toilet no every time i'm like i'm not wearing pants right now uh i don't
i don't ever wear pants when i'm streaming like uh it's just bad vibes dude later in the video
he's like eating and burping
he's like trying to talk while he's he's chewing oh he's getting up and burping.
He's like trying to talk while he's chewing. Oh, he's getting up?
That's kind of disgusting.
Oh, he's on the toilet! Dude, he actually gets on the toilet
at the end!
Dude, he's shitting! No way!
No, dude, no.
This is what I was scared of. See, this is why I told you.
This is why I told you.
Wait, so it actually is this guy
that's wild man so do you actually have tattoos of your hair man
no i think this is actually like an ironic like genuine giga chad move like girls have been doing all
these like ridiculous like super obvious cosmetic procedures for so long and then they'll make fun
of like guys for balding or something and it's like guys need to just like uh shave their shit
off and just unapologetically rock the most obvious toupee of all time like is that shit fake
yeah fuck you like this is fake this is a toupee you. Like, this is fake as hell. This is a toupee. You're retarded.
This is all fake right here.
I'm completely bald.
Yeah, my shit's fake too.
It's like, God, if I turn around too, it's like I couldn't even afford the full toupee.
I only got the front toupee.
That's why I'm always facing the camera.
If I turn around, you're going to see that it did not cover the back.
I could not afford the back. I could not
afford the back toupee. That's wild, man. Yeah. No, this is actually super based. I'm enormously
in favor of this strategy. Because the other thing is, again, Enzo, you didn't even notice.
It took you until I pointed it out, and I only noticed because I'm hyper insecure about the fact that my own hair is completely fake.
So the average person, he could probably marry someone, and it would be four decades into the marriage before she at any point realized that
it was a tattoo yeah like look at this it's literally he put it back into the chart too
like that's 20k 20k saved on a hair transplant he put it back into the chart smart
i do think a lot cheaper overseas more inexpensive uh prices though like that's a ridiculous they're
ripping you off dude yeah yeah it's like and honestly like a lot of these uh because like
every country now has like a uh like a specialty like every sort of like second rate first world
country has like a specialty that they have become the guy for right like some country might be like
the eye surgery country you have turkey is like the hair transplant country.
Like they're all doing this stuff. And at a certain point, like even if the country
itself and it's like surgical infrastructure, isn't that great. If they've done like 400
million hair transplants, they're just going to be pretty okay at hair transplants. Right?
Like if you go, it's a very difficult thing to do.
Costco or like, or not Costco, like cost cutters or great clips or something. And you get like an
old hairdresser working at cost cutters. Like even though it's like a $14 cost cutters haircut,
it will still probably be fine because she's like 60 years old and she's been giving haircuts for
her whole life. Like she's good at it now yeah like before i moved
i had this barber that was like this literally like 85 year old spanish lady she was great
you gotta find a tur what if it's me what if this whole thing like what if i was actually
shilling you on turkish hair transplants because i'm oh, by the way, I'm Turkish and I do hair transplants, by the way. Like,
wouldn't that be super funny guys? Here's my replic.
Wait, what do you mean? You've got to find a Turkish guy, go to Africa.
Is he like, am I getting like more strays here? Is he saying that the like Turkish is African? No, man. Turks are white.
You aren't Turkish. I don't know. Like I, there's no Turkish in either of my parents shit,
but like the thing is, if I shaved mustache i stop looking turkish very quickly uh but with the mustache i look extremely like randomly ethnic i'm like completely
british irish and like european yeah i was gonna say you're pretty unimpeachably like white uh
you actually look sort of like uh martin but uh martin you ever beard i
have i have grown out a beard but like uh i don't know it my beard my beard just rounds out my jaw
and makes me look really shit like i just i just become a soy jack really like i become like a tech
a tech youtube reviewer right like i look like I should be wearing plastic framed glasses and telling you
about why the newest MacBook is going to be 15% more performant because it has some AI technology.
I mean, you're literally like a self-admitted tech reviewer soyjack though. That seems completely
in character. No, it's completely in character. But I think that the angle that you have to do tech reviews from now is I think there's a massive hole in the
market for just a super aggressive... Because all the tech reviewers are really agreeable.
There's almost nobody who's going to come out and say, this product is dog shit. It basically
shouldn't exist. It was clearly designed for like an indian market uh
nobody in america should even consider purchasing this piece of dog okay like if you were willing
to do that huh like a like a tech review but with a racial element yeah like you need to be you need
to be like a hyperborean giga chad tech reviewer like uh racist and it's much funnier also if you're jewish you can put
like the laser eyes filter on and yeah drop the n-word the no i was talking about like uh what
because i am at some point just going to uh instead of like long posting all of my like weird like
product like uh my products like accumulated knowledge uh i should just i should just say it into a camera and become the tech
reviewer but i i was like do i call it soy jack reviews or will that hyperstition myself into
becoming the soy jack but like are you already the soy jack if you're doing tech reviews in the
first place well that's the trick it's like the whole the whole tech review space like kind of
takes the uh it take it basically assumes that there's
going to be like that whole like soy jack uh soy jack sponsor like uh layer like translation layer
you know so when so like you said like oh this product is dog shit clearly designed for indians
it's like they actually do kind of already say that but like in so many words and in a very
uninteresting way but they do like they do have to have a way in order to like deliver like a negative verdict for a product basically um but it also yeah there's also a way that like
it's just boring people are like scared to say that like oh this is like a retarded design
decision right and like they're like well what if somebody else has a use case where this is
actually not a retarded design decision and i'm being inconsiderate it's like you can actually
just do that like you can actually just do that. Like you can actually just assume
that your use case is the dominant use case
and tell everyone else to fuck off.
That is in fact, one of the ways
in which they'll imply that something is a bad product.
They'll basically talk about like,
it's like, oh, this is like,
they'll basically say like,
oh, like marketing imprecision.
Like, oh, this is imprecisely marketed.
Like this is a mass market,
this is a mass marketed product,
but it has a
narrow use case like translation it's dog shit and like no one wants it and like no one will
want to use this but i'm not allowed to say that because i'm on youtube and also i'm being sponsored
and so forth yeah yeah no i uh i actually my aura ring has grown on me a lot speaking of things that
i should tech review the stream brought to you by Aura. Dude, I realize those fucking things are like $500.
What the fuck is that about?
That's insane.
So yeah, it justifies that cost.
It literally is a scam.
You can get an Apple Watch with better sensors for the same price and it has a fucking screen on it.
The Ring is $500.
Apple Watches are actually actually i think like the
best at like the sleep tracking but the problem with apple watches is that uh one they're like
sort of goofy for a lot of people not for me obviously i'm wearing a fucking pixel 3 watch
so like i know the pixel actually looks pretty good it's it's circular and everything the apple
watch has like a mega soft like goofy like analog feel to it uh not not analog excuse me but like uh
sort of like oblivion like tech chic to it that just i don't think goes over well anymore like
even like their other products are kind of straying away from that design motif but like for that like
in terms of the health sensors others they're like pretty unparalleled right like well the sensors
themselves are not like uh any different really than the ones that other
people are using.
The main advantage that Apple has is they did a really, really good training run such
that they can actually, they're only relying on, I believe, heart rate and acceleration
data in the Apple Watch to get your sleep data.
And out of all of the like weird shit that you can wear on yourself to track this stuff outside of like an actual polysomnograph, it is the most accurate.
Now, it's only more accurate than like the aura by like two or three percent.
But that's that's actually really impressive because like the aura relies on like acceleration data, heart rate, HRV, and I believe, uh, respiration there's like four or
five different things that they all had to call it together to get like still not as accurate as
Apple was able to with just acceleration and, uh, heart rate. So like, uh, I don't know, Apple,
Apple just did really good training. And I think you're going to be hard pressed
to... I think the reason that these companies are hard to spin up is because you just need to do
massive research into the algo. And nobody is going to open source their algo for this shit
because it costs them millions and millions of dollars to create. So that's the main cost of
shit like the Aura. like uh even the apple watch
like the apple watch is not like an expensive product to produce it has a like you know the
tech in it is relatively cheap but uh and they can make them cheaper now because they've already
done like the training cost data you know they actually like had to remove their pulse oximeter uh functionality because they got
sued like i just found out that was they did a little bit of cutting right it's not even cost
cutting they got sued by like a patent holder where they're like they're like oh we're the
only ones that are allowed to read uh blood o2 levels with a sensor like we patented that you
can't do that man
they actually had to remove it from all of their apple watches
like the ones that like bought before it still works i thought i thought the issue was that
they like ripped off his like uh algo to some extent i don't think so i think it's like literally
um the old patent holder had a patent for like a sensor that can read this that's like wearable
and so even though that their sensor is different like they still are not allowed to do that by
patent laws i thought i feel like i fucking used apple was trying to use some of their like uh
proprietary like research findings but i don't really remember that it's possible it's possible
i'm not like super knowledgeable about it but yeah i didn't i didn't read a ton
into it i just assumed that like uh because like apple lost which was sort of interesting to me
because like uh courts have been pretty favorable to apple generally so like i assume they must have
done something i mean they have billions of dollars like it's a that gives them a pretty
big leg up in the courts right like yeah yeah they have like a limited legal budget
right like yeah yeah they have like a limited legal budget i so so i do think that apple watch
is actually kind of mog like all this other shit uh but i have an android and it's like it's not
like a big enough like the the difference between like the best android watch and the best apple
watch is like three four ish percent so like uh i just don't really care enough to switch to an apple phone
because of this uh and i i hate the apple watch for many other reasons like outside of like the
tracking it's like a huge pain in the ass but uh like i've just been like completely sucked into
the apple ecosystem at this point like i'm just i've just given up uh i used to be like a huge
linux dude i would run all open source
software and like just like gigasoyjack shit but I really like Apple uh like MacBooks are great
MacBooks are great I just cannot use fucking iPhones I don't I I don't know what it is every
single time I try it there's like eight different things that cause me like deep spiritual pain
with the green bubble bro I know that's well that's the silliest
one too also it really is yeah especially when the android has like rcs and stuff now that's like
completely comparable to it yeah yeah like you can literally just like have like cross-platform
compatibility on like every single facet uh and there was that period where like the the first
one i think was like i switched i tried to. I've tried to switch like almost every generation since like the iPhone 7.
And like the iPhone 7, I tried it.
And like the notifications were so fucking raped that I actually like had like a crash out.
Like I was like at college and I had to I like left class to go buy whatever the fucking Samsung version was because I was like trying to look at my notifications for things and it like it this was they didn't even group them like i just got like 400 million
notifications and i had to like manually close them all like they hadn't even added the clear
all button yet it was just sitting there like how can this be happening to me like that's literally
like the main reason why i don't do smart watches because of the notifications on
your wrist i feel like that's like fucked i think it's like spiritually damaging to have constant
dude i i love it i've only curated it so it's like the people that i need for like work and
stuff come through on the watch and everyone else can get fucked uh and it's like it's like 10x my
responsiveness on like when i actually need to be like talking in a group chat yeah i
guess that i guess if you're like pretty selective about what rings to the watch but i just don't
have the attention span to set that up i guess i haven't like most of my notifications just
completely silenced all the time yeah that's fair i think uh i don't know the the aura thing i've
been uh i was actually in a group chat this morning.
We were all comparing our aura ring metrics and shit.
I'm balling out today, bro.
I'm balling out.
Let me show you.
I'm also legitimately frightened of what my metrics would look like,
so I don't even want to know.
Dude, I can't see that.
Your screen's completely blinking in and out. camp it's because of the camera dude like yeah you're gonna have to like send us
put a screenshot up on the uh like shutter speed thing i need to adjust it off on like 0.1 hertz
the main thing is i got good sleep last night boys like i don't mean to graduate
i actually i didn't go to the gym i just just went straight home and I got seven whole hours of
sleep. And somehow I got like two hours and 20 minutes of REM in those seven hours, which is
like world historic. Usually it's like, I'll get six hours of sleep and like maybe 80 minutes of
REM or something. But this time two and a half hours of REM, so much dreaming, so recharged.
And I got even more than two hours of deep sleep also.
Fully restored.
Congrats on the sex, man.
For real.
Congrats.
I'm pretty much sold on the Aura ring.
They're so fucking ugly.
I don't know, man.
Fucking terrible.
I do not want that shit on
my finger like like lucas is like nah it looks tacky dude you're telling me it looks tacky like
lucas was showing me the ring con because it like has like a better like shape profile for your
finger i kind of like the way it looks like i like i don't know call me a freak or something
like that yeah you're a freak you're a complete freak if you like that shit i was looks terrible
you weren't supposed to.
Okay.
I'm like debating another beer here, but I don't know.
I don't know.
We might be calling this one here pretty soon, too.
I think we've got a meeting.
That pretty much has no relevance to whether or not I drink another beer.
But yeah, I feel you.
Oh, really?
Oh, yeah.
I'll just sit here and drink beer, man.
I mean, I don't start often, but once I get started, I'll keep going.
What are you drinking?
Avalanche Amber Ale.
I started with sake.
I was at a Japanese restaurant.
Sake is fun.
Yeah, yeah.
This makes sense. Kiwis are like a weird restorative fruit. I was at a Japanese restaurant. Sake is fun. This makes sense.
Kiwis are like a weird restorative fruit.
I'm a huge kiwi bull.
Chill me on the kiwis real quick.
Which DM?
Kiwis, I don't know.
I just think they have a a really good uh like electrolyte balance like if
you ever do uh if you ever do like a really high intensity like cardio uh workout or you um
cardio steals your gains dude i never do that no dude high intensity cardio absolutely like ramps
that shit up bro uh if you do like if you do like cross-country runnership but i mean study the
difference between sprinters and cross-country runners right sprinters are pretty maxed just
by doing nothing it's a there's like an anaerobic profile basically with like very long-term like
like cross-country running whatever marathon running that basically min-maxes your body
into dropping mass like uh because it's just more efficient.
But the high-intensity shit, it's kind of neither here nor there.
If anything, it's more explosive.
I think there's also a metabolic efficiency thing.
I think sprinting makes you generally have you have higher throughput and you're like less efficient.
And then the more like the more like low intensity cardio you do, the more efficient you wind up getting.
And like making your body efficient is like actually just another way to make yourself skinny fat.
Yeah, exactly.
I always feel really good after sprints, though. Like day after like a sprint workout, like I always feel really good after sprints though like day like day after like a
sprint workout like i always feel really good for some reason dude dude i feel so fucking awesome
ever since i got the bike and i just decided to ride like a gigasburg uh and just like do like uh
start stop sprints like going to and uh from work man jesus
did you grow up like riding bikes a lot uh i mean we like rode around the neighborhood with like uh like it was how we like got to like friend's houses and stuff but like it was like we were
sort of in the suburbs but it was like we weren't going to like the gas station or going to like
the grocery store with our friends on the bikes because that's like the big divide i see with like bike people is that like like bike people like almost invariably grow
up on them i find so if you if you didn't grow up on them because you probably just are not
predisposed to them i really uh i mean i did start mountain biking uh when i got my first job after college um i definitely like grew up on bikes but
i was also introduced quite early to motorcycles like dirt bikes and stuff made me lose interest
in pedal bikes very quickly like well i mean the places where i lived around it just made much more
sense to have a motorcycle because like uh it's it's sort of like the arb down here right like at my university you could part of a motorcycle fucking anywhere
uh but like parking a car is like you're just man like you're gonna be driving around like the whole
class just trying to find a parking spot yeah uh and then if you do find a parking spot you're
gonna get like an 80 ticket and then they would actually uh they would actually just like start
ramping the ticket prices every year I was there.
I have this really funny picture of hundreds and hundreds of traffic tickets because at first,
it was only a $7.50 traffic ticket. Then they moved it to $15, and then they moved it to $50,
and then they kept moving it up. But for my first year, I realized that, oh, they're only going to
get you like once a
week for the traffic ticket so you can basically just pay seven and a half dollars for a parking
pass uh guys chilling kiwis before sleep again i i believe like i believe very strongly that
he's right about this uh actually he's are like my recovery fruit i think he's totally right kind of more like blackberry pilled than kiwi
i feel like blackberries are mid i love blackberries they are not mid
they are not mid they're better they're definitely better than raspberries they have like
it tastes much healthier than raspberries i will give you
that they taste much healthier than raspberries raspberries taste way fucking better though
i i disagree but i it's an uncommon uh it's an unpopular opinion i think yeah like i'm very i'm
very uh like confident in this view that i have because i know if i made a poll right now about
raspberries versus blackberries the raspberries are going to win yeah that's just because they're enormous yeah yeah exactly it's normie fruit
but blackberries are just better i watch that gpt says that kiwis do in fact contain natural
melatonin that's interesting what is high serotonin and antioxidant content. Ray Pete won't like this. Yeah, it's cooked, man.
I'm throwing out on my Kiwis.
Ray Pete told me to.
Wait, Ray Pete doesn't like Kiwis?
He doesn't like serotonin.
Yeah, they have high levels of serotonin, apparently.
Yeah, okay.
Ray Pete and his like gay
communist scam has simply gone on for too long it's not even really his gay communist scam it's
like other people using his writings for a gay communist scam well it's like the weirdest thing
with uh ray pete it's like who like who are the biggest like ray pete shill actually no
let's go back two years who are the biggest ray pete shills they who like who are the biggest like ray pete shill actually no let's go back
two years who are the biggest ray pete shills they're all like right wingers on right wing
twitter like they're all like uh like crazy people like land shark and like bap and shit right
and then eventually it started like growing outwards into like kind of like health influencer
territory and now it's now it's like red scare followers yeah it's like slavic prostitutes now
so it like it just became like completely normified and now. Yeah, it's like Slavic prostitutes now. So it just became completely normified.
And now you almost can't even describe politics to it anymore.
It's just kind of retarded.
Personally, I love Slavic prostitutes.
Imagine describing politics to the Atkins diet.
This stream brought to you by the Atkins diet.
The Atkins prostitutes.
Yeah, I guess it by the Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet.
The Atkins diet.
The Atkins diet.
The Atkins diet.
The Atkins diet.
The Atkins diet.
The Atkins diet. The Atkins diet.
Yeah I guess it's not really the diet itself.
It's like it's just funny.
It's like given Ray Peet's politics.
I mean he was like he was literally an avowed Lysenkoist.
Like that's even amongst amongst communists.
Like that's like pretty fucking rare.
Like that's a that's very very rare.
I don't know.
Are there any Pete understanders in the chat?
Was he actually avowed?
I think he was.
He disavowed. The communists disavowed him.
They disavowed him.
I don't know, but the point is,
you would expect leftists
to be more sympathetic to him,
but it's not the case. It's very, very
odd. leftist to be like more sympathetic to him but it's not the case it's very very odd i think like the uh the bap thesis of them just being like kind of like low energy losers is
probably correct like say what you will about pete but like he at least like nominally says that
well like the whole like slogan is like bioenergetics and shit like that like it's nominally about like being healthy and powerful it's like it's neither here nor there
how effective it is it's like nominally the messaging and like like going by like that
like vitalistic theory pragmatically used used by fat people as a cope to justify obesity but
nominally nominally nominally there's a case i know nothing about pete like diet at all i just use it as an
excuse to consume as much ice cream and sugar as i want no the thing is you are the modal peter
like that is the average repeat subscriber like you're just you're just substantially more honest
about it than the average driver right like it's it's the same thing with like power lifters
where they would say like oh like i've got to carve up before my lift so i can hit my weights
and then it's like they spend all day just eating oats and like ice cream go mad dude yeah go mad
go mad like gaining like like the world's world's historic dreamer bulk like uh you just you remember that picture
enzo i know you do like uh the one of uh the one that like starting strength like mark ripito
always used as an example of like the ideal practitioner of starting strength and it's like
yes this high standing t-rex build
they have another pose of him like three months later or maybe six months and he looks exactly
the same but like fatter yeah he's like the ideal disciple of my train he's like a he's like fatter
but like with a fat ass and all the squats yeah that that's like the that's like the thing about
the whole starting strength split like that even just like any like because it's basically like a ppl almost like any like strength focus like like compound focused ppl just turns you
into a fucking pair like it's it's really not a ppl though like that's why it's like very lower body
focused it's like well no no that's the thing a ppl ends up being lower body focused like that
like especially a compound focused one um like like no no one, like people go like, oh, like a PPL is like very balanced, right?
Was like, okay, well, like if you're doing like, again, like the stipulation is compound
focused, right?
So like, okay, well, if I want my big three, so like I have my push, I have my pull, I
have my legs.
Okay, well, obviously I'm going to squat on my leg day.
I'm going to bench on my push day. I guess I'll do that. I guess I'll deadlift on my pull day.
I'm going to bench on my push day.
I guess I'll do that.
I guess I'll deadlift on my pull day, right?
Right. Well, deadlift is such a huge movement that it ends up being like your whole pull day, basically.
You know, like you will still do some like other accessories, you know, whatever, like like cable rows, fucking throne rows, whatever.
But like most of your energy is going to be spent on the deadlift. Right.
on the deadlift, right? So like in actuality, like because just because of the energy expenditure
and the compound emphasis, a strength compound focus PPL will turn you into a pair. It will
bias your lower body massively. I speak from experience. Yeah, you do look kind of pear-shaped.
Yeah, you do look kind of pear-shaped.
Shut up!
No, this is very true.
I usually do a full body everyday thing when I come back to lift, but then the instant my work capacity is high enough that I'm able to do more than three sets per body part, I go like a three four or five day split because like uh
it just sucks ass like it just makes you look like it's super like i mean five day splits four
day splits we're like definitely settled upon by all the ogs for a reason yeah one good leg day
per week and just like hit it really really fucking hard if you do more than that like
you're gonna turn you're gonna turn into a pair like the starting strength build is well known it doesn't look good
just that's just like power lifting in general right like it makes you look like yeah
yeah that's kind of the thing is like the easiest the easiest way if i were to do the thing that
required like uh the least training and like allowed me the most pleasure right now in order to increase all of
my lifts by some amount it would basically be just gain 20 pounds of pure water bloat and fat
yeah so basically peating yeah you can uh yeah you can't really beat that in terms of just like
fast strength just like fast
strength, just like turn into a fat ass. Like you actually will be stronger. Yeah. I mean, a lot of
it, a lot of it is like totally fake though. Like it's like your leverages increase when you have a
lot of fat on the outside of your body, because now it's like, uh, you know, like the fat is
actually acting as like a physical buffer towards like the bottom of your lift right like
yeah if you're benching and you know you're you coil your fat arms in here like yeah that makes
sense literally buffering the resistance of the weight against your fat assery on your chest and
stuff you're like your chest literally gets fatter right it's the range of motion is smaller your chest is much easier because you're now obese
mark ripeto looked like pretty insane in his prime i've watched 10 out of 10 women ruin their figure on rape i have seen horrors beyond your comprehension
the the issue with like power lifting is that it's just it's
it's like the same thing with like open body building as well like right now it's
it's very very heavily uh concerned with just like being a freak in one way or another
it's like any like power lifter you're talking to he's like he doesn't want to be human anymore
any dedicated power lifter i should say there's always been this dichotomy
where like if you are a if you get seriously into lifting right uh and you get like into strong man
you're like a type of guy you're like one of those like yeah like you're like one of the blue collar
conservatives right uh and then if you get into bodybuilding you're also a specific type of guy right you're
basically like the classic like fascists and then if you get into like uh power lifting you're
usually like the most lib coded of like all of the lifters by like a very heavy margin like the only
the only form of lifting you consistently see like communists engage in will be like power lifting
yeah uh communist like communist lifters
are the weirdest fucking thing ever because they also have like this odd like idiosyncratic
like almost ideological like devotion to lower body like there are multiple like twitter accounts
i've seen of like you know like marxist lifter or whatever or some stupid shit like that and it's
like they have like the legs
of like an ifbb olympian with like the upper body of like a towel boy yeah and they will talk they
will talk about how like they don't believe in like benching like they don't believe in like
pull-ups like they don't believe in those things like they're really it like i think it's just
like uh like gynocracy longhouse shit Like they really do not believe in like projecting like any kind of like masculine form or virtue or ideal or whatever.
And, uh, that's all lower body, right? It's like the, I mean, upper body, excuse me,
the lower body only exists like tangentially on the masculine form and or to make yourself more
pleasurable when you're being like raped by someone. Like it's like someone else,
someone else should extract maximal pleasure from my
ass when I'm being raped.
I think it's also
an over-identification
with women as well because
women famously,
you talk to a girl every day in the gym.
Every time she's doing legs,
it's the easiest way to flirt with a girl
in the gym is just make fun
of how she does legs all the time
and make a cute little joke about it.
You talk to women in the gym?
I do.
I don't listen to music in the gym,
so I have to find ways to entertain myself
between sets and everything,
so I just typically talk to people that's funny i uh i told you about that one like that one woman
in the gym who was wearing like absolutely nothing and she came up like maybe like a foot next to me
while i was doing like seated uh shoulder presses and just starts doing these lifts that are
literally just like she's bending over and putting her even maximally into like the mirror and just starts doing these lifts that are literally just like she's bending over and putting her even
maximally into like the mirror and just
standing like that. She's like spreading
her ass in your face.
She's like, oh, don't mind me.
And then
yeah, and then girlfriend
comes upstairs and is just like
she just like starts taking the
dumbbells and like throwing them at her.
Get the fuck like get away
straight cat dirty ass bitch like straight cat
I think Sue's back here
Let's move him up
Giving priority
How's it going bud? You in the uh you in the flying station yeah
i'm in uh i'm in a car going to the airport yeah i was gonna say i can hear the blinkers
you're you're doing that uh like your air pods are doing the thing where it's like mostly clipping
out the background noise but it's leaving in like the very end of the uh the clicker noise
i'm not i'm not on airpods I'm doing it raw
everything's wrong these days maybe yeah because because my airpods are not charged and I don't
have a lightning I don't have the old Apple uh cable I refuse to buy another one until I get
home so I know you always use mine at the office. You also stole the only USB cable that has high enough data throughput to use my dock.
So my dock has been rendered unusable. You put it on your charging brick, I think.
I was planning to save Mac and replacing it with one that you didn't know.
It's like Mad Max in the office.
It's actually just Sue is the only one who's ever taken any of this stuff off my desk
it's a wasteland out here it's crazy it's a waste it's a wasteland
oh control uh control took like half my chargers. That's probably true.
Yeah, I could see Control doing it also.
Yeah.
But, um...
Wait, so which cord do you need?
Do you need the one that's USB-C to USB-C?
There's one that says CalDigit
in your charging block, I believe.
Countage?
C-A-L-D-I-G-I-T.
Okay. Let's see. i believe countage c-a-l-d-i-g-i-t okay i'll see i'll rummage through i'll uh rummage through later yeah i'll trade you for another
one i have enough of these i mean you've seen my like cable nest it's like uh it's honestly quite impressive because that's because that whole dock it supports like dozens of charges right uh so that was the one that i connected my computer to it
to and the rest don't have like uh it needs like some like uh high like gigabit per second
transfer to use the monitors uh or else they don't light up or something like that.
So how have you been?
How's the travel going?
We're excited to have you back finally.
No, no.
I'm going to see them for it and then I'm going to Taipei.
I've got to run some errands.
I have a friend's 40th birthday.
Yeah.
After a week.
When are you coming back?
April 10, roughly.
What?
It's in like two weeks.
Week and a half.
That's like two weeks.
Whatever.
I'm gonna do like the
scorned girlfriend thing.
Okay, that's fine.
Like, I didn't want to hang out with you either.
It does give that vibe a little bit.
Yeah.
But, I mean, bro, I still talk to you hours a day here, right?
I mean, we're still, you know, we're still close.
Yeah, I mean, it's not the same, but whatever.
It's not the same, yeah.
I can be a very good scorned woman like i can i can do it really well man i feel like you you have the needful experience
to to be able to push it through i really i mean one of the funniest things with girls is to like
when you know that they're about to do like a specific like void trope to to front run them and do it before them so like if you've been working all day or
something you like come home and you like accuse them of like ignoring you instead and they're just
like in disbelief like they're like how could they just won't they just like break up with
you long term because they'll be like i marry, I'm with a woman instead of a guy.
Or no.
If what?
Or does it actually work if you just mirror female behavior?
Well, I mean, the idea is that you mirror it as a joke, right?
If they're smart, they know that you're just doing the thing.
And then instead of being mad at you, they're just laughing.
When you show them how silly their thing is
that they're doing is by doing it themselves,
they laugh at it instead of go,
he fucking hates me.
He's an evil bastard.
Right.
But some of them don't...
I feel like if I did it, I would say that.
Yeah.
I feel like it's person-dependent.
You can get away with it with your personality
both illustrating like the comedic elements of like what they were doing
but also like uh it's not like you're beating them with a hammer emotionally like you're making fun
of them uh so there is like it had to be calibrated over many years because i definitely
did both of those at different times a lot. We should write and publish the Lucas Guide to, like, male gaslighting.
I feel like it would be really popular.
I've tried to get so many, like, when people will, like, talk, they'll be like, dude, like, I think I fucked this up.
But, like, how do I run it back with this girl?
And, like, if I give them advice of, like, what I would say personally personally it will never work nearly as well for
them because of i i don't know like it's i think it's just like copy trading like you cannot copy
trade someone's game unless their game is like extremely generic uh but like every time it winds
up with some like horrifyingly negative consequence to the person who tries it like it winds up being
like the girl takes something way
more seriously than it should be because the guy is just fundamentally more serious than i am
and now like it's like a three-month fight that gets rolled out
it's because they're not doing like the same intent right like they don't understand the
thinking behind it.
The intuition. There's no thinking.
There's only knowing.
Through infinite trial
runs. It's like machine learning iterating
towards...
I also...
Because I do think, Lucas,
for 95% of guys,
if they're overworking and then they come home and then they accuse the girl of like ignoring them.
Like, I do think they're just gonna get broken up with like pretty fast because it's like.
Does he?
You have to be really funny.
You have to be really funny and like, like almost like above their league.
And then they'd be
like yeah haha like i of course i appreciate my time with you haha you know it's like that
i don't know uh i maybe i can like gopro when i do it but like i mean the end result basically
is just to like uh like whenever the girl is mad at the beginning of an interaction you want to
minimize the amount of time that she's mad for so you can get to, like, enjoying your time together with her.
Right?
Because you just don't want to hang out with a girl who's, like, emanating vibe rapist energy the whole time.
So, like, the point is just, like, make her, like, happy and laugh through whatever means are
available so you don't
want to kill yourself.
Good advice.
I think Enzo's sitting there in horror because
he's like Lucas basically just recreated
happy wipe, happy life.
No, I'm kind of crashing out right now.
That's fair.
Yeah, we could totally cut this here.
This has been a pretty quiet day, all things considered.
Yeah.
We've sort of rugged everyone in multiple ways.
We have a meeting in like 20 minutes.
I'll say one thing about the girls.
You do just have to keep them happy. But you can't about the girls uh you do just have to like keep them happy
but you can't like portray you can't be a loser as you do it it's like uh the whole like you know
walk in and they're like oh you're ignoring me honey like you can like you can do that
just make sure that you uh she doesn't think that you're a loser in doing it like you can't you can't
be hurt like it is really funny to preemptively accuse people
of doing the things that you're doing uh it's something i mean it's something that people
naturally do like a lot of the time as like a gaslight technique but when you do it as an
ironic gaslighting technique uh it confuses the directionality of what you're saying so much that
it just becomes absurd yeah and if like if you're doing it because you perceive a problem,
it's like if she's actually ignoring you or whatever.
It's like chicken and egg situation.
If she's actually ignoring you, and you just preempt it,
and accuse her of ignoring you in a funny gaslight way.
No, no, no.
If she's actually ignoring you, you accuse her of being too clingy.
Oh, I guess. Yeah, see, see, i'm not templating it right i am too tired
and then you'd like come up with all of these like imagined ways in which she's
been like helicoptering you all day you annoying i need to sleep
well because the whole point of ignoring someone is that like uh they're going to like feel an
absence of your presence and get mad at it so like the idea like that you're trying to like
give someone the cold shoulder and they get pissed off at you for still spending too much time with them is like this is honestly explaining a lot why like you were able to do the lucas woman account so well
i think a lot of it came from the fact that like whenever someone says like, like if someone gives me like a response to a thing,
I have to then like say something different than I did the last time I heard
this line. Right.
So at some point you just multi-path like every possible conversation tree and
like see where it goes under different circumstances.
Whereas like, I think most people find like, they're like,
this response works fairly well. I'm going to keep using it.
Right.
Uh, and like, I do the same thing on Twitter replies.
If I'm like hyper onlining something and I have a post that goes off and like, uh, you'll,
you know, if you have a viral post that goes off, you get like, uh, basically four to six
replies, like four to six types of reply.
It's just people saying the same thing over and over again.
And there are some people who will go and find like the best response and just keep copy pasting that. But then I will go
and instead say like, okay, you have to come up with a new way to respond to it this time,
like every single time. And that winds up like teaching you, I think more about like,
you learn more about like the types of guy that are responding with that type of reply.
If you like put them in like 100 million different situations than just like the one over and over and you have
the one because if you do that same copy paste reply they actually reply to you in the same way
that all of the other guys who asked that thing did and you just have the same exact conversation
tree like 500 times you don't learn anything. There's no point in engaging with it.
All right. You guys want to call it?
It's getting kind of late here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm down to call it.
