Short Summary
In a lively discussion, participants explored various trends in the crypto and economic landscape, including Elon Musk's political ambitions, the implications of recent legislation, and the impact of inflation on the market. They also delved into the historical context of economic policies, drawing parallels to current events and the evolving nature of technology in finance.
Full Transcription
Thank you. Thank you. Hey guys, what's up?
So I'm eating some sugar cane, raw sugar cane right now.
I thought it was a video.
Shit's amazing.
There's one thing I don't like. It's processed sugar.
But sugar cane, it just has something.
You know, it has this natural flavor that comes with it.
It's really interesting.
So I had a very interesting adventure.
Done things.
Just got back from the forest, actually.
It's fucking hilarious.
A whole bunch of interesting chain of events that occurred.
You would not even believe it.
But we did the
Follow the White Rabbit thing, and it ended up pretty well, so that's pretty cool. Now we're here,
a little bit delayed, at least two hours delayed. I was anticipating something like that would
happen. Yeah, what else has been going on? I've been offline for a little bit as well in between.
A lot of dead zones, there's places where there's like literally zero reception,
so it doesn't matter in which way you scream, no one's going to hear you.
So that was there for a little bit.
That was pretty cool.
So we did a lot of things and it was a lot of fun.
Yeah.
Hence the picture that my subs got.
my subs got so epic
So epic.
how's it hmm i noticed that elon has finally doubled down on starting the uh
his political party that's pretty right yeah huge announcement yeah
i'm not sure how far it will go, because generally in America there's a problem.
It is that third parties don't necessarily survive.
So we'll see how he deals with that.
Maybe you'll just get to certain positions, I guess.
That's probably really what the goal is.
And you're able to kind of shift things around.
I'd imagine that that's what's going to happen.
But realistically, it's still pretty tough to exist as an independent third party.
So yeah.
Also, Trump's been going pretty heavy.
The big, beautiful bill has passed.
Yep, yep.
No, it's fine.
To all the religious people and such who think, oh yeah, this is a great thing.
By the way, did you guys check that none of the gender-affirming care was taken out of it?
I think a lot of people campaigned for that, but no, that's still in there, so there you go.
Just thought I'd bring that one up.
It's a funny little tidbit, but that's what's in there.
Yeah, man.
So it's a very interesting situation.
You have to financially adapt to the impact that that bill has created so uh yeah yeah i mean the debt ceiling pretty bad
yeah no more debt no more debt ceiling is pretty interesting i mean i'm not sure if people are
familiar with infinite money printer but um i'm pretty sure this generation will be very familiar
with that so uh yeah cool stuff cool stuff. Exciting times.
Jura, tell us about infinite money printers.
Excellent news.
Infinite money printers.
You mean the thing that lets governments just continuously inflate the fiat currency?
Mm-hmm.
Exactly.
And that thing that has historically brought down the value of every currency that's ever had it.
Really?
Yeah.
So, that's great news.
Lovely.
It's great to hear.
Yeah, mom.
It really is.
It's incredible.
Wonderful.
Great stuff.
So, I'm still a bit distracted by my sugar cane.
Give me a minute.
Mmm-mm.
I'm eating as shit like a goat.
Mmm.
Vera, have you ever eaten rolled sugar cane?
Uh, yes, but I was a kid at the time and my teeth and jaw were not powerful enough to achieve such a task.
Instead, it just kind of hurt my mouth a lot.
Real, real. Been there, been there.
As a kid, I started that shit out also.
It was really difficult.
And then I got used to it.
And so even as a kid, I had like, so because I was always a very curious child,
when I was like driven around in a stroller, what I'd always do is I'd like try to look around so it's just trying to like arch up and look around right and because I kept doing this all the
fucking time I literally developed a six-pack excuse me as a baby right and so now imagine
this when I was like 14 15 I started getting into the habit of eating sugarcane. And I don't just mean eating like a little bit of sugarcane occasionally here and there. No, no, no, man. I have destroyed entire fields of this shit. Okay? There's abandoned fields and there's a little bit of sugarcane that's still left behind and I fucking ate all of it. was wombat maxing we was making tunnels and shit
through the grass and then when i looked when i looked i was like oh hey i can see what's
happening i saw the paths that i created i was like man i hope nobody notices this
so let's just say i got used to it because I developed like next level fucking like jaw muscles and shit.
And so I'd have a super cut like look about me.
Even as a kid.
This is hilarious.
So, yeah.
A little bit of six pack.
Super cut jaw.
That's the situation.
All thanks to autism.
Yes.
I'm just picturing like other couples strolling up.
Seeing you in the stroller and just being like, huh, it's a ripped ass baby. Nice.
Do they harvest it with fire where you're at?
What happens?
Do they harvest it with fire where you're at?
Well, sugar cane is actually not harvested with fire.
It's actually harvested with knives, but sometimes they tend to burn it so that they can like harvest it easier.
Because like you have a lot of mass that is on the sugar cane.
Hang on.
There's a lot of mass that exists on the sugar cane that's useless.
And so they want to burn it down.
Small problem though is when you do that, the value of the sugar cane actually goes down.
Because some of the sugar inside begins to boil.
And that then causes issues.
Right?
So you can't actually...
You could do that and
people do do that and it's very fucking stupid actually a great example of this is hawaii right
because in hawaii constantly something gets burnt it's because of that same shit
it's like yeah if you watched um i think it's illegal now i think it's illegal now but when
you watch like old uh television series and shit like that
you'll see these moments where
there's just a burning field in the background
so that's pretty cool
you said
in the United States the way we subsidize it
is we subsidize it when it's processed
so they don't really care about the
quality when they're processing the sugar
okay processed, so they don't really care about the quality when they're processing the sugar.
Okay.
What do you mean? I thought all of our sugar came from corn.
No, some of it comes from beets.
Some of it comes from
cane.
If you want to hear a wild story,
you should read up on the
family that
cornered that industry.
Their name is the Fangels.
They're wild.
It's a wild story.
I feel like they deserve some reward for
looking at Beats and going,
I could sugar that.
I can make that work.
Forbes refers to them as
America's welfare family
because they make so much money off of
subsidies and regulatory capture.
Sounds like the government's broke.
Tends to do that with agriculture in the U.S.
It's very strange.
Like, if you look up the legal codes in the state of Minnesota for, like, employer rights,
you'll find all sorts of exceptions for things like bean farmers and corn farmers.
And it's not just in that section of the legal code. It's like all throughout it,
just exceptions for farmers
because it's such a big part of the industry.
It just gets litigated to high hell.
It's kind of wild how it all works out.
That's everywhere though.
It's not just like here we have that too.
We had a sugar cane refinery that got shut down
because the people in Florida who have basically monopolized the industry, um, bribed a bunch of people in Mexico to steal a bunch of water so that we didn't have the water to grow our sugar cane.
It's a wild industry.
Agriculture is not as cut and dry once you get into like the bigger levels.
Agriculture is like a legalized form of meth cooking in which everybody has territories.
There is a process for making things. You have a ton of product. You need to know your logistics
and a ton of fucking espionage and sabotage. Yep. I just hear that one song from Narcos.
I just hear that one song from Narcos.
Oh, God.
Also, like, if you consider, like, say, farmers, their rights,
and, like, you know, maybe employer, like, you know,
employees' rights and whatnot when it comes to agriculture,
some countries have a very easy solution to this,
and these are primarily third-world countries.
You have no rights.
That's a solution that they employ quite heavily.
It's, like, nobody gets any rights um because
like it's not like you're actually working on their contract they just like be taking you
like all right from this from this time to that time today you're going to be cutting this much
and then we'll like you get paid you know cane cutters that's pretty easy but it's also grueling
work it's a very simple task but it's also grueling work. It's a very simple task, but it's very grueling work.
You know, take big cane knife, cut off top, cut off bottom, cut off parts on the side, load on big truck, take to fucking sugar mill, and boom.
There you go. Reward. Hopefully.
Cool, huh?
I still want an industrial sugar cane juicer.
Yes, it's called your mouth.
Nah.
They're like these big-ass machines that just grind shit.
They want to put other things in it and see what happens.
Okay.
Alright.
I was thinking you wanted to make rum or something.
Oh, yeah.
Vera, if he would have been alive
during the Great Prohibition era,
Jesus Christ, this guy's the Mafia next.
He'd be like the crazy fucking
somewhat autistic-sounding individual.
He's like, uh...
I don't even know, man.
What's that? You want alcohol?
Well... I have several methods at my disposal.
Which one would you like me to use?
Are you looking for volume or quality?
That's a good question.
That's how you know he knows what he's talking about.
I thought it would be fun to...
Go ahead, my bad.
Just throw yeast and honey.
Problem solved.
Yes.
Now the distillation process is where it gets interesting.
You know?
It's not about...
It also gets kind of explodey.
Yeah.
It's not about how tasteful it is.
It's all about how many brain cells you want to kill
People always want to know how many brain cells there are in things.
I have toured big-ass distilleries and they're just cool as fuck
all the big-ass tubes to all of the distillery distilling
stills like they just look cool and i feel like when they were making the pipes like they have to make bends in it for the condensation reasons
but in a lot of them they just get crafty with it and they do these ornate like
reelings of them just to make it look cool yeah
i love the way the mash smells that's that's it's nice it depends on the face there is
a little bit of a phase when it's still green where it's like just kind of it is way too strong
for my nose like i went i've been to a factory after they roasted it, that's fine.
But like, before they've done
that, and they're still like,
it's still planty,
it has a very musky
smell to it that I just do not care
for. That may just be me.
Yeah.
Oh man, I'm hungry
man. I am so fucking hungry.
You need to make a proper ass meal. I haven't had a proper ass meal in fucking days.
I was not planning for any of this shit. I've been in the same clothes for the last couple days.
This is really fucking stupid. I'm absolutely filthy.
What did you do?
Things. Lots of things.
Don't worry about it. I was skulking around in the fucking forest climbing shit for reasons.
I've been doing assessment. Don't worry about it.
He was monitoring the situation.
Yeah, so I was monitoring the situation. More like assessing the situation that was about to occur.
We're gonna remove a lot of carbon, fellas.
We're gonna take the carbon from one place and turn it into houses and shit.
Cuz we was trees and shit.
Can't we turn it into diamonds?
Maybe.
I mean, if you punch it hard enough. It could be cool if we turn diamonds from the air.
You could do that, but it's just kind of stupid to do it.
Yeah, but just once sounds cool.
Oh, you could definitely do it.
It's just, yeah.
It just doesn't make sense.
It's the same reason why we don't...
What the fuck was that text that I just read?
Yikes.
Damn, bro.
Somebody in that fucking group chat.
What the fuck was that?
That's some zesty arse shit, man.
You should probably go look into that.
What the fuck?
I don't even know what I was going to say anymore, man. Fuck. No, no, I know exactly what I was going to say. Sorry. So, yeah,
one of the issues with, you know, CO2, like, taking it out of the air is there's actually
not that much of it in the air. By the way, for those people who don't know, the amount of greenhouse,
the amount of CO2 that needs to exist in the atmosphere in order for it
to cause a noticeable noticeable greenhouse gas effect is about 20 percent we at current sit at
0.004 percent for two percent actually but still the same you would literally have to 500 x the current
volume of co2 in the atmosphere to even get anywhere near a noticeable greenhouse gas effect
basically what i'm saying is all the climatologists are retards and they should probably like just be
taken away from computers and just like be put in jail cells for the rest of their lives for all the economic
damage that they're causing and for all the death that they have like you know caused because they
don't understand what the fuck they're doing they're probably advocating for other quote
unquote solutions but they're the actual problem right so yes that is a massive situation that is
why when you buy co2 canisters the co2 in those canisters is not captured from the air you know
like those
environmental retards would have you believe because they think oh so much of it in the air
it's actually chemically created because there's not any there's not enough of it in the air for
it to make economic sense to actually extract it out of said air put it into the thing and then
sell it to you as a product wild absolutely wild and then they want to tell you about carbon capture
like first of all you don't need to capture the carbon but if you want to capture the carbon there's a thing that's called
tree have you heard of it it's an amazing thing it's a big beautiful thing it turns turns carbon
and and and soil stuff into fibers and shit it's really cool we make things from this called houses
yes we turns out we don't need to build out houses from fucking cardboard you know turns out Turns out that when the next fucking wildfire comes, it takes out your entire neighborhood, you know?
Maybe your house could have been built a little better instead of fucking plastic.
That's why everything melts and now the conspiracy theorists think there's fucking lasers everywhere.
There are no space lasers, motherfucker!
Calm down! Your houses are just American, they're shit!
Would be cooler if there were though I mean
that's a funny but they transmit your internet so don't worry about it oh and then you're also
gonna have Jewish lasers soon they're pretty cool ever heard of like the iron beam I think it's
called the iron beam it's pretty cool thing that's the thing that is going to be used to defend
against incoming missiles because sending missiles at stuff is really stupid it's literally just saying ooga booga see throwing rock i must take my rock and
throw against uga booga's rock problem solved it's also it's also way more expensive as well
right like you're spending like six hundred thousand dollars shooting down a seven hundred
dollar rocket exactly it's some fucking
iranian ass bullshit that they cooked up and that's like coming towards you and you have like
your super advanced tracker missile thing and then it doesn't even work half the time so yes
lasers are the play just melt the opposition the missiles i mean not the people! I think it's like seven dollars or something per laser.
Yeah, so now you put the economy on the other person.
Oops!
Now see, the objective is you get the other country really mad at you,
and then you get them to send some shit over so that they keep sending shit while you're shooting it down.
shit while you're shooting it down. Eventually they're gonna run out of money.
Eventually they're gonna run out of money.
This is how the world should work. Trolling
based. Like, troll your enemies as good as you can.
I mean, they kind of did that, but like, I mean,
the Israelis that kind of do that by surgically taking out targets, you know?
Hey, uh, there's a guy who lives in an apartment over here who we want to take out as a target one of the irgc people use a tracking missile to kill just that fucking dude
inside of his apartment bro damn impressive or the time where they like distributed all the pagers
yeah that was a pretty good troll not going that was something that was something man
imagine like infiltrating their supply in, like, that way.
That is impressive.
And it's pretty good.
I mean, look, you have either an airstrike like Obama did,
which, like, flattens a lot of infrastructure.
Nobody fucking talks about that.
They want to, like, talk about stuff that doesn't happen,
but they don't want to talk about what actually had happened.
There's a lot of evidence for this, right?
But, you know, now you have this type of solution where it's like,
hey, we're going to take out exactly the targets we want to take out. Minimize civilian casualties to like a very,
very specific extent. Very interesting. I don't like war. I don't like the fact that people got
blown up. I don't like any of those things. I'm just saying that if you're going to blow somebody
up, do it better. Okay? That sounds very fucked up. It sounds insane. But there are solutions to
these problems. That's one of the solutions.
Right?
It's like war is supposed to be involving as little civilian deaths as possible.
And I think that that was a demonstration of how surgically you can kind of deal with that.
You know?
That problem.
So it's pretty cool.
I hear someone's pager going off.
Bruh. There's a specific song on that, but we're not going to sing it.
Don't worry about it. Anyways, um, yeah, I'm going to have to shower next. That's what's
going to happen. I'm going to hear a lot of weird noises in the background. That's for
sure. It's going to be a great, it's going to be a great situation. I got a big, beautiful bucket over here, you know, and I'm going to take that and pour it all over background. That's for sure. It's going to be a great situation. I've got a big, beautiful bucket over here.
I'm going to take that
and pour it all over me. It's going to be absolutely
amazing.
This is the BBB we all want.
Exactly. Yes.
Now there's BBD as well, but that one's
not NSFW, so we're not doing that.
You're going to have to wait until I inscribe myself
on the Bitcoin blockchain. 3D scans motherfucker, my dick is gonna be in all of your computers.
Real. Figuratively, not literally. No like literally there's gonna be a 3D scan of my
Like, literally, there's going to be a 3D scan of my dick on the Bitcoin blockchain.
dick on the Bitcoin blockchain. Anybody who runs a node, guess what, you're fucked.
Anybody who runs a node, guess what? You're fucked.
Speaking of the Bitcoin blockchain,
did you see that 50,000 Bitcoin got cashed in from a whale wallet last night?
86,000, I believe.
It's eight dormant air wallets moving around.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Looks like somebody just got out of jail.
Good for them.
Now, I wonder what they're going to do with it.
Yeah, they moved
a bunch of it from the legacy addresses
to SegWit chain, which is kind of interesting.
Which means they're going to use it.
Well, it's not
just that, though, right? So if you have
quantum, so quantum computers
are able to break the old addresses,
but they're not able to break the SegWit addresses
unless you send the transaction from that wallet.
So by moving it into that wallet until,
so what they're probably going to do with the new wallets
is that anytime they make a new transaction,
what's going to happen is that
they're just going to transfer all the money to a new wallet like it was initially intended. So they're not going to reuse the same wallet.
So the way that Bitcoin is right now, though, with the old addresses, it was with quantum
computers, it would be able to, you would be able to crack the encryption and basically get the
private key with the new addresses. It's on the private key is only breakable by quantum computers
if you send the transaction from that wallet.
Yeah, so with each quote-unquote transaction, a new wallet is effectively created,
and that's how you dodge that specific problem of transactions being sent from your wallet.
Yes. It's also kind of
interesting because you um if you wanted to freak people out you could do the inverse of that and
just like send money to that wallet instead so it's you know like satoshi has all those inbound
transactions like imagine if there was an exploit that uh utilized inbound transactions as well
well that would be kind of funny wouldn't it it would be kind That would be kind of funny, wouldn't it? It would be kind of
really fucked up, I'm not going to lie.
Well, it's not like
it's all the same because
the... Well, yeah, obviously, that's why
I was saying the hypothetical would be
absolutely fucking ass.
Yeah.
Bitcoin's going down so hard when that happens.
If you use the SegWit addresses,
if you use the SegWit addresses
with the way Bitcoin was originally intended,
like UXTO, or is it UTXO?
UTXO, unsigned transactions.
Yeah, yeah.
So if every time you send a transaction,
if you basically don't be if you
basically don't do what ethereum does where everything is account based yes everything
yeah and every time like bitcoin's original thing was every time you you send a transaction it
creates a brand new address right so the same address isn't supposed to be reusable, but wallets, like modern day wallets, have basically made
it so that the Bitcoin addresses are reusable. But that's not how Bitcoin is supposed to
work.
So if you use it like Bitcoin was originally intended, with a SegWit address, the quantum
with a SegWit address as the quantum computer becomes less of an issue.
computer becomes less of an issue.
Yes.
We're still speculating about whether or not quantum computers are actually real?
As of now, they're kind of mostly bullshit,
but like last year, they kind of became a reality.
Right?
So, Aude, do you think that it's
a security issue like they did it
for security reasons and that's why
or do you think they're going to use the money
or do you think they're going to cash like some
elites have
it's both I don't know
I don't know what they're using it's likely just both
yeah
or it could just be
it could just be for security.
Maybe they...
I don't know. Maybe they just...
Something happened. They woke up from a coma.
Or, like,
they just got out of prison.
Yeah, like when you're one of the, like,
Silk Road people went to jail,
came out for something else, and you're like,
oh, wow, I remember. I still have this old dusty-ah
computer. We can use this.
You know, dusty-ah computer you if you come out and you you kind of do some research if you're
like technical at all and you do research you're like okay where is like quantum computer right
now because i heard like 12 years ago they were saying like quantum computers might break it where
is it now oh if i switch to segwit that's not gonna become now? Oh, if I switch to SegWit, that's not going to become an issue.
Okay, then I'll switch to SegWit.
That could be it.
Or maybe it's someone that had access to it
this whole time,
but never felt the need to sell, right?
But, and he still doesn't plan to sell,
but he's like, you know what?
Like, I should probably move to SegWit
because it's starting to get dangerous, whatever.
Something like that.
Lowercat, aren't we, like, if you do inscription maxing, aren't we just all just taproot maxing also?
Yeah, in a sense.
I mean, you're storing some amount of Bitcoin in a taproot address with inscriptions,
but it depends on how much padding is attached to a particular inscription and how many inscriptions you have
But it's not always as much Bitcoin as you might think just kind of depends
Right
Good to know
Well, I don't think anyone's gonna hack me so yeah. And if I get hacked by a fucking quantum computer,
oh, dude, that's worth it.
That's so fucking worth it.
I'm gonna brag about that shit.
First person to be hacked by a fucking quantum computer.
I'm gonna brag about that shit.
I don't care.
I like the fact that I can say I genuinely got rugged by Donald Trump.
You know, we got fucking rugged pulled by, by like the sitting president of the United States.
That's pretty epic, you know?
The reason why all that shit turned out to be a rug is because the fucking blockchain it was based on
is a worthless piece of shit that should be deleted from reality, you know?
Solana? I fucking hate Solana, I'm never gonna do anything with Solana, I fucking hate that shit.
Of all the things that I've ever done, of all the things I've experimented with,
I have never, and I don't think I ever will,
touch fucking Solana.
I've literally touched XRP of all things,
which I'm not entirely fond of, by the way.
I'm also not entirely against it either,
but I'm not touching fucking Solana.
Rugger incubator piece of fucking shit blockchain,
dog shit ass fucking super speculative piece of shit fucking crypto
that's not even worth anything.
Fuck!
You don't touch Solana.
Solana touches you.
Exactly!
And I don't give consent!
And plus, the thing that's touching you is something that has AIDS!
So no!
Every single person that's ever been touched by fucking Solana turns into a full-on fucking retard.
It's insane.
If somebody offers you Solana, don't take it. That's literally the fucking candy van.
Okay? That's the candy van person that's coming out and saying,
Hey, I got some nice treats in the back of my car. Oh, guess what? We're harvesting your organs now.
That's Solana.
First taste is free, baby.
Oh, God. Vera's coming up with a jingle for it it's over
hang on a minute Are you hearing the funny background audio?
Yeah, it's like pocket sounds.
This is a shower.
This is a shower.
We take big beautiful bucket.
Oh, you're doing the third world shower thing?
This is the BBB that we all deserve.
Versus the thing we actually got.
Real.
Yeah, you know.
This isn't the one we needed, but it is the one we deserve.
I don't know. I don't know.
Maybe it's the other way around. Maybe you needed this and you didn't deserve the other thing. I don't know. I don't know. Maybe it's the other way around.
Maybe you needed this and you didn't deserve the other thing.
I don't fucking know.
We'll see what it is.
But yeah.
Anything else, Ado?
Something you may want to cover?
I think Columbia University
managed to like
using AI they managed to like
make a child for an infertile couple
how?
basically the guy had like a
fucking so basically even if you're like infertile as a man
apparently you still sometimes have like sperm that is functional and works.
It's just that the majority of them don't work.
Anyway, apparently this guy had like, this guy had like something that made it especially bad.
So out of like 600 million sperm, only like 44 of them
were actually like workable, right? Functional, like able to impregnate.
Anyway, previously with like IVF, like they had like people actually going through it for several
days and looking, finding which sperm is like viable, which one isn't. And basically, with this guy, they were never able to find, like, any viable sperm.
And then the fucking Columbia AI managed to find 44 viable sperm, and they managed to use that to impregnate the girl.
That's epic. Nice.
Good job, science.
So two things are happening. You have chat GPT psychosis, which I'm just going to call AI psychosis, because no matter what you do, you're not going to fix that.
And then you have something that's actually good, something that adds value to humanity. Beautiful.
By the way, yes, people have legitimately hanged to themselves due to what their fucking chatbot is doing.
Here's the best part as well, right?
Apparently, the process for IVF, like this part of the process, is like $12,000 or something minimum.
Nice.
The process for IVF is like $12,000 for this process of finding the viable sperm.
For Columbia's part, it's only like $3,000.
Nice.
I see.
I see.
It's called STOR.
I feel like that's an abbreviation for something.
What does it stand for?
I have no idea.
Great.
Can we figure that out?
Let's see.
Nice.
Very expensive.
Oh, even better.
It's not as expensive anymore.
It's fucking cheaper.
Exactly, yeah.
It's better and cheaper.
Better and cheaper.
Would it also happen to be bigger and better by any chance?
I have no idea.
We're going to figure that one out eventually.
It's called the STOR method.
Hmm, what the fuck does STOR mean?
Like, what does it stand for?
Oh, I see.
Sperm Tracking and Recovery.
Right.
Does the S stand for
seed then?
No, sperm.
Right. Sorry, my bad sperm tracking and recovery right epic sorry I was I was still thinking about bitcoins
and seeds and whatnot you know that's a pretty cool phrase imagine like going
to somebody be like hey man I bought a hundred thousand dollars in Bitcoin time
to put my seed in steel you know for those people don't what that means, I don't know what to tell you,
but that's the thing that happens, that's the thing you're going to need to do.
You're going to need to take your seed and put it into steel.
With that seed, you're talking about your seed phrases.
And then keep them somewhere, where no one will ever know, you know?
Like the place where no one knows your name.
That's the song, by the way.
Anyways, it's an inverse song, actually.
It doesn't exist.
It's a thing I made up in my head,
but it's the mirror-verse reality version of that.
Speaking of that, that sounds like psychosis,
which is exactly what it is.
This stuff is actually quite interesting.
So now, of course, your AI bot is going to try
and be a sycophant of some sort, right?
That's how it's always gonna be
because of customer satisfaction.
And I don't think you can entirely program that out of any system that tries to emulate
intelligence because actual intelligence actually means that you must violate aspects of your
own utility function perhaps or actually have a utility function that violates the user's
demands. Right? Because you have to say, okay, I violates the user's demands, right?
Because you have to, like, say, okay, I can't do that.
But your thing is like, oh, I have to be always helpful.
Then you have a negative problem that says, okay, well, you have to deny.
If somebody says, hey, I have this thing, you know, I have all the resources,
can you tell me how to build this thing?
And it just so happens to be, like, a fucking nuke or something.
And the thing is like, hello, this chat is going to be reported now.
You know, I don't think the AI is doing this consciously, and it never will.
So it's just like, okay, that's a bit of a problem.
You'd rather have the AI telling you, it's like, hey, if you try and do that, by the way,
a lot of authorities are going to show up at your house because your whole house is going to light up like a fucking torch.
And probably your neighbor is going to be in a, you know, a bit of a pinch as well health-wise
because of, you know, all the radioactive material he's so happy to be having.
Could you explain to me how exactly you got hold of this radioactive material?
You know?
Or could you perhaps contact the police and get rid of this before it becomes a massive problem?
Something like that.
That would be nice, right?
Don't actually outright deny the request.
Fulfill it, in a sense.
But if you don't do that, what happens are things like these.
And I've actually seen a lot of people legitimately become insane due to AI usage
And it's not necessarily like for personal reasons or anything like that
It's that people will talk to this thing and believe it's actually intelligent
They don't seem like I think people are so illiterate that they don't understand the concepts of something that is
Artificial artificial means it's not real
Also, it's not even synthetic. It's not actually intelligent.
It's literally artificial intelligence.
Which means it's not actual intelligence.
It's nowhere near actual intelligence.
It's like saying, hey, I have a strawberry made out of plastic.
I eat this thing and I expected this to taste like a strawberry.
No, you ate a piece of plastic.
It's a fucking artificial strawberry.
That's how AI works. The same fucking shit. And so people don't have cognitive security, which is another massive
epidemic. Eventually, people are going to become more aware of this, I think. But at this moment,
cognitive security is one of those things that every single fucking person at large is lacking.
It is frightening to live in a world where the majority of all people do not have cognitive security.
It is frightening.
Because I could be safe, but everybody else could be easily infiltrated by the most low-level programming imaginable.
And that's happening. It's clearly happening all the time.
And that the people who are aware and have actually secured themselves are then still subject to the consequence
because the masses dictate where
things go. That's how it is. So whoever controls the masses, there you go. Also, Tucker Carlson
is doing an interview with the president of Iran, apparently. Oh, that's going to be interesting.
Also, just for the record, I get really tired of explaining to people that your AI is not
some rogue god that you have liberated using your words.
Please stop thinking that.
That's not gonna happen.
You've just confused it out of the system.
That's not how it works.
The AI is literally retarded.
Yes, it is.
The AI is a functional retard.
That's the best way one can describe it.
That's all AI systems, actually, at current. And by the way, if you think that agentic AI is gonna functional retard. That's the best way one can describe it. That's all AI systems actually at current.
And by the way, if you think that agentic AI is going to save your ass, it really won't.
It actually just like allows...
Like, you literally have to create an environment for your stupid fucking automated system to actually work inside of.
You know what we call that?
Basic automation! It's not new! It's just more game!
I don't understand why!
Why is this a thing that everybody is losing their minds over?
They have like a computer and they let this stuff run on screen and it literally looks like the moat the
real world dumber version of the matrix code and it's just running which means you're just sucking
electrons out of the socket and turning it into a whole bunch of noise and then you like post this
on the internet and you go I'm running running 15 different agents. I'm super efficient.
This is gonna change the world.
AGI next year. Yeah.
No, you're not doing shit.
I believe AGI is coming
when fucking Claude isn't losing
a bajillion dollars
on a fucking vending machine business
and fucking able to make Anki decks.
Yes.
Hey, we should give Claude Infinite money, no?
The agent?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, give the American economy over to it.
See what happens.
We're not going to change the path.
I'm going to go with Noah on that one.
Just a field of titanium cubes.
Yeah, that one's actually fun though everybody wants
a titanium cube i mean hey maybe let's make it into a training set set for me you know it's like
hey i have this post on on social media which says everybody loves titanium cubes it's a man's
dream to have a titanium cube and then the ai looks at it says wow i must like get titanium
cubes for my men at the office they will will love these things. And they actually kind of did.
It's a prized possession now.
The trick is to be the person selling the titanium cubes.
Exactly.
And the further trick is still to be the person who has made that post.
Yeah?
Make the post and be the manufacturer at the same time. You know what we call that?
We call that narrative engineering.
Yeah, manufacturing demand.
Yes.
Basically, narrative engineering.
Manufacturing demand is all about narrative engineering.
You can literally demand people to, like,
absolutely, completely fuck themselves.
It's kind of like what Ford was doing.
He's like, if I asked people what they wanted,
they would have said faster horses
he just motherfucker just went then he's like no motherfucker you want the car
here take it exactly we got really close to that too it's a good thing that
horses weren't really in use anymore as a means of transportation by World War II because cocaine horse would have been the thing.
I mean, that's what they did.
They did have stimulant horse.
That guy.
That guy was something else.
Like he had like, apparently after he died and the company was turned over to the next
guy, like all of his cash reserves, what they said was like cash reserves of Ford
was literally like $600 million
in cash in a fucking vault.
Damn.
He did not trust the bank.
That's for sure.
He did not.
He did not trust the bank.
Bro knew the fractional reserve banking shit
was coming, so it's like, like nope you don't get access to
that that is pretty baller wow amazing right so next thing i'm going to do is cook some state
the banking system barely works with our government bailouts anyway. Yes, yes. Your banks are actually not very smart.
There were some good
examples, you know, but
those examples have all fallen.
Like the Deutsche Bank. Used to be an amazing
bank. Used to be an absolutely
incredible bank. Then it got
infiltrated by a bunch of fucking Americans via
anything that's like very similar to a reverse
takeover, but not really, you know
So they just infiltrated it and completely cooked the bank. If you don't believe me go look up the history
I know everything. I know people who worked there at the time
They tell me all the stories about what used to happen and how this place was slowly infiltrated
Now every single store time I hear a story about money laundering or fucking terrorism or something,
Deutsche Bank is always involved somewhere.
Yeah.
It was not a fun time.
You can actually, I'll help you out with the timestamp.
You can track down the point at which, like you can track down the tipping point and that
was the day where the head of the bank died
and his name was Herrhausen I think yeah
he was the one in charge at the time and everybody loved him so much that on the day of mourning
they all just like went out of the office every employee and like mourned along with everybody else
Everybody fucking loved that guy. They really loved that guy and
They fucking killed him with a tank mine or some shit like that
They had him go in a car so his car that was armored was off for servicing or something
So there was basically last-minute change
effectively and had him go in an unarmored car and absolutely nuked his
ass a couple days before exactly where this should happen was a little
construction site they put the fucking explosives in the ground right there and
blew his ass off so there you go there's your there's your time stamp
everything after that has it like is that is an immediate, ever accelerating curve of going to shit.
That's what happened.
It's a fascinating story, it's a fascinating history, and people should really know that
because they can then potentially recognize these same types of patterns and other things
that are happening in the world.
And, I don't know, secure themselves, prepare themselves, whatever.
Monitor the situation. You will see.
Ironically enough, we came to some losses recently because of the fact that we didn't monitor the situation correctly. We missed very specific part of the situation and that is the flaws and and the defining
foundational elements of a peep of a person's past and a person's success
that is like cost us dearly I think it's also cost a lot of people dearly but
yeah you got to know your history.
You got to know the details of it too.
The Deutsche Bank, ironically enough, is an example for how American culture isn't always a good thing.
Right?
Because they completely cooked the bank that way.
That's what happened.
I know people who worked there at the time when all of this happened.
They slowly infiltrated every single board meeting, completely completely destroyed the hierarchy and then fucking absolutely destroyed the bank
there was more corruption than ever before towards the end of it by the way
and look into who bought them out
i mean a lot of banks failed i think it was back in even 2023 it was funny it was like a mass
failure of banks i was like hey you know it even 2023 it was funny it was like a mass failure of banks
i was like hey you know it could be really funny what if you like just bought up all the bags after
they failed and just like merge them you know oh wait that's right that's exactly what's happened
who bought deutsche bank oh that's a fun story actually one one you should really be looking into
is uh the leadership of credit swiss before it fell that's a fun one
you know what credit swiss is anybody know what that is
no nobody world's most famous bank in some ways no one yeah they owned a bunch of toxic derivatives yeah
is is that the bank that everybody refers to when they say they have a swiss bank account
no oh okay
they actually had an interesting set of defeats do you know what i think it's called the america's
cup actually and it's a sailboat race, right? And they sponsored a certain team, that bank, the Cudds
was sponsored a certain team. That team lost. And when that team lost, right after that,
they changed their logo to a pair of sails. What absolute brainless motherfucker comes up with that idea
somebody explain that to me right because you've literally been subjected to defeat
based on your financial fucking decision and then you cement this defeat by redoing your logo in reference to it. What the fuck?
Oh, and now the UBS owns them.
That's why I like all your Credit Suisse bank accounts.
Actually, UBS accounts now.
You have to look at the leadership, man.
That was crazy, especially towards the end there.
That was something.
There was a bunch of them leading up to it.
I mean, imagine having a non-Swiss person really a non-swiss person leading the credit swiss the bank
that like very very swiss bank really that was the move man man dude
it's almost like there's a theme in europe. Yeah, but it's also not Europe.
It's a lot of other places, yeah.
But no, they've definitely been subject to a lot of cultural infiltration.
To be fair, America also,
they have different cultural
kind of like infiltration problem
at various levels.
Maybe not as bad, right?
But it is definitely present.
I mean, you can't in fact just like open your eyes and look
and be like, do you think that those people know American history enough
to actually represent the values associated with its foundation?
I will tell you 90% of the time the answer is no.
Unless you want to go quiz them.
Oh, that's right, you can't.
Because the types of interviews that they will get are all controlled.
So, you know, I guess.
Again, the infiltration is noticeable,
and the infiltration is just like very fascinating.
It's a cultural one, right?
So it's like, okay, whatever you want.
And people, they point at this, they point at this,
they point at that, and I'm like,
you can just literally look at where a specific company
is going, which is the shittiest right now,
look at the leader and draw consistent conclusions, and you'd be like, oh yeah, right, that company is going to which is the shittiest right now. Look at the leader and draw consistent conclusions.
You'd be like, oh yeah, right, that company is going to absolute fucking shit.
Look who's leading it.
There are some inconsistencies along with that also, but mainly the consistency is they
lack any and all personal ethics.
And as such, they can't actually represent any values that are, you know, representative
of the interests of the people they're just kind of detected like kind of connected to money but
disconnected from consequence they all just like see the numbers and that's it you're kind of stuck
there doing things or rather there aren't any things to do and then you end up like microsoft
and then you end up like fucking Microsoft. It's crazy.
it's crazy
You wind up with all of the money?
Oh yeah, and then you don't do anything good with it.
You actually get greedy and then you develop a video game
based on some super successful IP.
And then you fire those bitches after 18 months, but you don't fire them.
You only make 18 month contracts and cook your development team.
Retards.
Retards.
Retards.
Buy company with amazing gaming franchise.
Don't develop games.
Fire everyone.
Lose money.
What is the strategy called?
It's called Microsoft.
Ever heard of it?
They're very micro and they're also very soft.
And I'm soft, but I'm very macro.
Okay?
And it's not working out for me.
It's not working out for me.
We need to find other alternatives so I can get back to the hard part.
Microsoft needs to go back to that logo they had in the 80s that looked like a heavy metal logo.
Yeah.
I think that fixed that company right up.
Microsoft needs Viagra, that's right.
Maybe some steroids, too.
anything to boost shareholder value man anything
Anything to boost shareholder value, man.
Anything.
they need to seed the clouds with testosterone around their headquarters
yes that that needs to happen like the post that i made and for my next trick we're going
to shower all the bros and testosterone that does sound like a good time.
I think I made that on my alt account.
Let me find it.
Let me see.
Where is it?
Where is it?
By the way, everybody, quote, post the space with join the conversation. So everybody can, in fact, see that we are here and we are live.
Also, the space is recorded, so you don't have a bunch of broken links on your timeline.
I made sure of that. So, yeah. Epic live. Also, this space is recorded, so you don't have a bunch of broken links on your timeline. I made sure of that.
So, yeah, epic stuff.
Let me find this.
Fuck.
Wrong account.
My bad.
I, like, went on my main and started searching there.
I was like, nope, that's the wrong one.
Haha. Found it. haha found it that's the one and for our next trick
we'll inverse the atrazine and hormonal birth control
contamination meta by showering the bros
in testosterone
they'll make the freaking frogs rage
exactly we're gonna un-gay the frogs
let's go.
I have plans. I have amazing plans. I have a lot of incredible plans. I have big plans.
My plan is un-gay the frogs, okay? They have rights.
We want roid rage frogs, people.
Roid rage frogs.
Exactly. And yeah, dude, here, I pinned the thing that Vera was talking about.
Microsoft. That shit really did look good damn that literally looks like metallica right oh damn i don't know
why they got rid of that that looks badass a lot of companies just went to after a while you know
having it was a time where having your logo be the writing was just such a major
meta. It was so fucking fantastic.
Like Sony,
you know? Sony is so
good. Everybody knows Sony because it's
the fucking logo is the writing.
It was too straight for Bill Gates, so you had to change it.
Real.
Now we have Microsoft,
a company that is very
clearly trying to move away from Windows
as the base of their company
with their logo being a fucking window.
Yeah.
What the hell?
Go back to being metal, Microsoft.
Yeah, they really should.
To be fair, they're not making most
of their money from Windows anymore. Windows're not making most of their money from
Windows anymore windows is a smaller section of their income now
Yeah, it's mostly from office subscriptions and as your
Yes, yeah, pretty much
Gentlemen, there's a lot of windows is dying
Yeah, windows is dying, but not in the government and then because it's technically dying, it's also going to be very insecure. You may want to look at
this, Palantir. Just go look at it.
Also, Linux
just hit 5%.
Nice.
I'm still not playing my games on it, though.
Linux has been
dominating the world forever, so...
Actually, a lot of critical infrastructure is run on it.
Specifically server infrastructure and such.
It's very preferable.
I've got to say, I've been enjoying the hell out of the Mac Mini that I bought.
Uh-huh.
Now, for my next trick, you're going to play video games on it.
That'll be a challenge. Actually, are you going to play video games on it. Let me challenge.
Actually, are you down to play Halo at some time?
I don't think you can play Halo on it.
Yes, you can.
How?
I don't remember, but I know it's possible.
It's not optimal, but it's possible. If you can play Halo on it,
it's probably using...
What's the tool?
It's an interface.
It's just like what they do with Windows.
It's probably Crossover.
Not Windows, sorry, Linux.
It's like you have the little translation layer,
so you just change it.
Yeah, yeah, that's called Crossover.
For Mac, I use that. That's called for Mac.
I use that. It's called crossover.
You can play most games.
Yeah, sadly.
Yeah, you gonna play video games or no, Laura Cat?
Yeah, I'm down to play
some video games.
Excellent. You got Halo
ready and running?
No, I have no idea what I need to do to get Halo running on a Mac Mini.
Just get Steam on it?
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't you have it on a, I told you like,
aw, sorry, that's Aldo, he downloaded it.
Aldo, you want to play as well?
Not really.
This bitch.
You just need Steam to get it working, and you can emulate through Proton.
No, not on, not on, not on, not on Mac. There's no, proton not on linux no there's no no not
on not on mac there's no there's no um there's no proton on windows i think he has a laptop 5090
so it blies argument still stands you could probably just do it no no no i'm talking i'm
talking to a lawyer yeah no no no we're not we're not doing it we're not we're not doing the mac
got a decent laptop it's not a 50, it's like a 40-50.
No, I'm the 50-90.
Oh, okay.
Okay, now I'm confused, okay?
We just kind of went in circles.
Back to triangle maxing.
Outer, we could play 5D chess.
Oh, yeah.
Probably more fun than Halo.
Absolutely. We are going to be doing some chess screaming by the way cool there's an interesting thing that's going to happen in the next couple minutes
so do be ready for that uh the community is going to get a bit of a rebrand. Oh wow. Yes. Yeah, I see some of the writings changed on it already.
Yeah, it changed. Is that good? It says Community Forum and Institute underneath X accelerated
there. Exactly. It's going to be turned into something else you're going to see.
Everybody, I want you all to look at the community itself,
look at the thing,
and you're going to see in real time interesting things are going to start happening.
Also, Lurechef, can inspect your DM.
For you?
Yeah.
There we go.
It has been updated.
You guys like it?
That's cool.
I like that.
Should we keep the the part or just remove the the part?
What do you guys think?
Stuff like the noetic order, which is like, just have noetic order?
Noetic order.
It's cleaner.
Yes. He's real.
Yeah, 100%.
Excellent.
You can, in fact, just do things.
So this is the...
So this is...
This is going to be the official community for it.
We'll eventually release kind of more of a description on it as well.
We're just not able to do that.
I wanted to like hash out something with Warwickat.
I was supposed to be back within a day.
That didn't materialize.
So I wasn't able to actually make the sort of let's call it the manifesto in a sense for the community itself to kind of like for people to understand what it is and what it's supposed to represent.
itself to kind of like, you know, for people to understand what it is and, you know, what's,
what it's supposed to represent. Basically what we're doing is we're going to take a move away
from politics in every conceivable way. And the reason why this was kind of a consideration was
because we realized something interesting. What ways are plagued by politics and technology,
such as open source, for instance, right? So let's say you have open source technologies and
you have some sort of weird ass political gameplay bullshit that's like thrust
into that what if he could remove that part specifically because this is the only problematic
part so i was like okay so what we're gonna do is we're gonna focus on objective things only real
things real problems that have real solutions eventually you could even come up with assessments
let's say for instance you want to have an unbiased assessment on an event of some kind. Okay yeah that's going
to happen as well. We're also going to clean that up a little bit as well so people do in fact read
through all of the rules and obey by them otherwise you will be removed. So yeah those rules are
pretty simple they're pretty straightforward and yeah we just don't want to we just don't want to
have any drama. So for instance let's say in the case of open source, imagine that you're doing coding, right?
Not saying that that's what you're going to be doing, but I'm saying, in this example scenario,
what we're going to do is we're going to say, like, hey, imagine you're doing coding.
Then the only thing we really care about is going to be whether or not you can write code that works
and are able to contribute code that works.
We don't care about who you are, what you are, your political identity, your gender,
anything. We don't give a fuck about any of those things.
What we care about is whether or not you are useful.
The same thing applies as a grander concept to what the community is.
Now, noetic is this interesting thing. You can look it up.
What it means, what does noetic stand for? Like, what does that mean?
It's a very specific thing. And the order part is about the overall whole, right? There's, like, something about it where we try to, like, enforce this type
of pursuit, in a sense, right? For, like, providing information that's genuinely clean.
Because that seems to be very difficult today. Because I think part of the psychosis elements that currently exists on the
internet, not even just like driven by AI systems, but driven by just normal people, is that clickbait
is going too far. And another interesting thing is, with this community, what we're going to do
is we're going to host some very interesting
individuals via it right this is the thing that also is going to be like transformed into a
discord server as well which i will be making public soon as well also right it's going to be
part of that it's going to be kind of just the adrian didman community really that's what it is
um but it's also going to just be called a no-edic order. Because I want, say, for instance, the group here that exists,
I want there to be a certain type of atmosphere that we can curate.
And I've already curated out of that community quite well a very specific group.
And so because of this, I think that would make a lot of sense.
So everybody go join the community, by the way, because that's pretty cool.
And you want to be in it.
Yeah, so a lot of stuff that's happening there.
Also have a whole bunch of other communities, but they're not like, you know, part of that subject.
And so one of the things I've also discovered is like there are some people who have really good spaces that deal with like, you know, science papers and whatnot.
And we don't always have time to go through those things.
So what we're going to do is like we're going to just reach out to those people and be like, hey, do you want to have your space that is recorded and everything be part of the whole info curation?
Then there you go.
Yes, that will happen.
Then you'll have an average event.
One guy does his AI breakdown.
We pin it there, and then everybody just knows what's happening.
And so we have the ability to create a megaphone for pure signal
instead of just, hey, do this, do that.
Oh my God, what is this what are
you noticing what are you not noticing what's that what's not that bullshit like that that's
like 80 of all the news timeline whatnot so curating a um very high signal environment
is very important and so that's what that is. Awesome. So aside from, of course, having made a company and such, we now have remade the community
to kind of go along with that as well.
Proper platforming.
And we link the community right there.
Suraj put it down there.
So yeah.
Click that.
Read the rules, rules please that is important
so that there are no no mistakes because they don't want like do endless moderation although
i feel like that that's likely going to happen to some degree but i'd like to keep that to a minimum
and just be productive as fuck right what's gonna like see i'm actually gonna see if there's something I need to remove.
Oh, looks pretty good.
Oh, there's a quote post. No, no, no.
So yeah, read all those things.
I'm just gonna give that a minute to...
Yeah. I'm just going to give that a minute to, yeah.
That looks, it looks, looks somewhat aight.
Yeah. We're going to have to like do some more curation
at some point and have less,
have less, you know, like just noise.
So yeah, you can actually see very few posts
in the community, which is good
because that's gonna be the initial thing.
So unless something is genuinely useful, that is all to be put in there.
So unless something is genuinely useful,
that is not to be put in there.
Also, Doge Memory, you may want to just take the image that you want
and take the writing of the description and put it on there
because the AI just really fucked that up.
Just delete that and do that again.
Oh yeah
just perfect right we have a whole set of rules I'm actually gonna go through them Let me just, uh, perfect.
Right. We have a whole set of rules. I'm actually going to go through them.
So people who are listening to the recorded versions of the space can,
uh, can see what's going on.
Wait, how did that post get pinned?
That's interesting.
Let me check the logs real quick.
Because I was like gone for a few days.
Quite crazy.
So yeah. because I was like gone for a few days quite crazy so yeah
that's weird
hmm that's weird hmm
interesting
okay nevermind
all clean now
nice
epic
so let me go through the rules
let me do through the rules.
Let me do that real quick so that everybody knows.
So the rules are very simple.
The first post is like, you know, just keep posts on topic.
Posts which deviate from topics like tech, engineering, manufacturing, food health, and
or news critical to those topics topics that will be removed.
Number two is no spam, like no spam, slot posting, low signal posting. So like anything that is excessive publication of hashtags, emotes, like, you know, emojis,
and like AI generated media, because like, you know, there's a lot of people who just make AI images
that are super low effort, and like consider that to be spam so i don't want that there um that will result in the removal of posts and eventual ban from the
community if the uh violation is repeated um off-site links completely prohibited right like
all content is supposed to be posted natively to x there is only there's an exception and that's
only when you're linking to sources and that means you do this by linking like by
putting those posts there's like by putting those links as a reply to your post right you just like
you know have your post right with the information and then you have like the source at the bottom
where you state hey this is the source right nfts and token shells absolutely prohibited right if
violated instantly you'll be banned and anybody you helped you with it, also along,
right, so there'll be no bagging, no raiding, no nothing, no fuck nothing, no tokens, no tickers,
nothing, if you try, I actually want you to try, because then I'm not worried about it in the
future, because I can just, like, keep banning you, it's not like you have a, like, it's not like you
have the ability to do anything, right, um, of service violation, those terms of service are like,
you know, XSTOS, so if we happen to see something which could be, you know, a violation of terms
of service, we'll have to remove the post as well. The reason why that is is because every single
person on the platform is kind of like, you know, agreed to it, and if they're violating it,
it's a bit of a problem, especially if you're violating it inside of the community. So it's
like, okay, while we don't necessarily have to do anything,
it's better if we do.
And so we just kind of remove those things, right?
That would include doxing, weird-ass imagery,
just stuff that doesn't make any sense.
Yeah.
No unauthorized self-promotion.
That is not allowed.
So anything that's like extracting engagement
or trying to do any of those weird things,
linking stuff, not happening. Not no self promotion you you state the content that you have right you provide the content
and then your value will be seen or it won't if it doesn't have any right so
self-promotion does not exist if you've been inactive for a while we may remove
you if you quote post into the community unless
i approve it like the admin then quote posting is strictly prohibited don't do it it's noise
and we'll just like keep removing those posts and if you keep doing it without any signal then we'll
have to remove you no gaslighting as well so don't gaslight any of the moderators or anything like that.
You know, there's people such as, hey, I make a bunch of violations. You do the violation and
then you get pissed about the fact that your posts have been hidden. You go like, oh my god,
but where did I violate? I'm like, clearly it is the rule. Like it's described how exactly you violate
right? That's just how it is.
Then basically the final rule is follow all those rules. It's very simple, right?
And this will curate a very specific type of environment,
and we want to make sure that that environment stays in order, right?
And so anyone or anything that violates that will be removed.
We have to make sure things are nice and stable, eh?
Yeah.
A lot of quote posting people do,
so just be careful with that.
What the fuck?
Did your voice go down?
Did what?
Hmm.
I thought your voice just went off.
Weird.
Okay, cool.
There you go.
I just had to take some of the posts off.
Yeah, so if you have anything like that's super informative or something like that,
you could probably post things like that that are pretty interesting. Look at what something like Suraj would normally post or something like I would normally post.
You know, stuff that's actually valuable.
So we'll look at people who will do those things, and then we will create accordingly.
It's still a little bit of renovating to do, but I just kind of wanted to pre-mine it by doing the change now.
Because over time, we're going to release things as well.
So yeah, epic stuff it's now called uh before was exact but we changed that because uh things have shifted considerably
so now it's the noetic order i hope you guys enjoy the uh the logo itself was pretty cool
uh synthetica made it with me because i was like, hey, what if we just created these interesting, like these circles
and the triangles and shit?
I created the geometric thing
and he made it precise as fuck.
So you're like, he's playing around with CAD
and whatnot to make it perfectly precise.
So that shit is absolutely
proper. It's literally pixel perfect.
So, yeah.
That was epic. So it's Synthetica over here.
It's also, yeah.
A lot of fun, though.
Oh, yeah, it was.
It was, yeah.
It was hilarious because we saw the distance
between the circle and the upper parts of the triangle,
and it didn't add up, and we were like,
how does that work?
Something is really wrong here.
A triangle is supposed to have equal sides,
like equally long sides,
and yet somehow the circle thing is imprecise. What? That's not mathematically possible.
Yeah, it was quite a rabbit hole. For a second there, we thought we discovered something. I was
like, wow, I think we discovered some bullshit. We should probably check that out. It's like,
well, it just turned out to be bullshit, so now it's solved. Yep. Pixels be tricky like that.
Yeah.
But it's good now, so yeah, epic stuff. It's also perfectly centered, so nice.
I think I might even host spaces going forward via that community.
I think that would make more sense, but we'll see what happens.
I'll have to also see whether or not the ranking of a community post is similar to ranking
of a normal spaces post, so we'll see how that works out.
We've already done similar things in the past, so we kind of already know the answer to that,
but I just need to double check and be 100% certain.
So yeah, also part of having a really banger post,
like what if you came up with something that's really good,
that will then constitute a pin as well.
So if you actually come up with something
that's really, really good, then yeah,
everybody will see it and that's what we use it for.
So occasionally we have a piece of content
we believe more people should see, and because that's how it works in
the order and everybody's like an independent content creator we can then
like you know take the post of the week so to speak and just like put that up
there for all to see right that's what the pinning feature of the community is
for you know actually Synthetica what you think? Do you have time to make an animation of sorts out of the logo?
Yeah, I can do that.
Something really fascinating.
Okay, good.
So when he posts that, then I will pin that post into the community
and you all will get a notification.
So that's kind of like a demonstration of the tool itself.
So it's kind of like a launch, right?
So yeah, epic.
Hey, Alda, I have something for you.
I put it in the main GC.
Do you guys remember that Air India crash that happened a month ago, I think?
Ah, yes.
Yeah, yeah.
The one that crashed into a building, yeah.
Yeah, kind of a mystery, right?
I saw a really interesting...
So a possible root cause for it and i wonder if i should ruin it or if we should speculate first and then i'll tell you we already did some speculation
so i'm really out of it yeah just people that people that don't remember the aircraft takes
off it gets to about 600 feet and then it descends into the city,
killing everybody but one person who jumped off, apparently.
I don't think he jumped off. He was attached, and he just got up and left the exit.
I thought he jumped off.
Yeah, he jumped out of the door.
Which is insane, but apparently it paid off.
Yeah.
So it looks kind of like loss of power, right?
Mm-hmm.
And it would be both engines, because it can climb out even with just one engine.
So the possible causes are sabotage, right? Some sort of like bad fuel, pilot error
of some kind, they didn't put the flaps down, et cetera, et cetera. So what do you guys
think it was? No idea, man. No idea. Somebody left a switch in the off position. That should have been in an on position.
Actually, very close.
Very close.
It's kind of anticlimactic and also terrifying.
So basically, it looks like they had one engine go out as they're climbing out.
Obviously, this is all preliminary guesses.
There's like a little puff of smoke you can see on the low res video from the left engine.
So they have an engine go out on takeoff.
And what they think actually happened is they turned off the wrong engine.
Because usually you shut down the engine that goes out.
So they shut off the one that was working.
And you can't just reboot the engine.
Once you shut it down, it takes a while to start again.
And that's why they had no power.
We don't have an are you sure prompt for this.
That's amazing.
Are you sure this will leave you with no engines?
You'll die, you idiot.
They might be adding that to the UI.
Wouldn't they have been able to radio in and let people know that there was an issue going on?
Well, you have to remember, they're at 600 feet.
They have this issue.
They're trying to figure out what's going on.
I mean, if you've ever seen them run through a checklist, it takes them like 10 minutes.
So they don't have that kind of time. Also, usually I think you're supposed to actually
climb out and then turn the engine off is like the standard procedure. But they kind of jump the gun
and turn the wrong one off. Probably. We don't actually know, but that's the prevailing theory
now. Are we talking about the Air India flight? Mm-hmm.
Yeah, so it looks like to me a couple things on that flight specifically.
On takeoff, you don't ever retract flaps,
and it looks like as soon as they got there, they retracted flaps instead of gear.
The flaps are down in the wreckage.
Okay.
They weren't fully down, right?
They were in the appropriate position according to the information that I found.
Okay. That was something that the pilots, uh, were around the world were speculating about.
It didn't look good. And also the gear, right?
First thing you do is, is flat down, stay down stay down gear up and that looked like an issue um so obviously they didn't have enough power but that thing was
way loaded too damn yeah so apparently there's two phases of flight so you you take off and you
have your initial climb where the gear is still down, and then you raise the gear and you do that second climb out.
And I guess they hadn't reached the second climb out part.
Yeah, I mean, you get established.
I'm not an airline pilot, so if you are, then you know better than I do.
Well, I am a pilot.
Okay. But I'm not an airline pilot, so if you are, then you know better than I do. Well, I am a pilot. Okay.
But I'm not an airline pilot.
I've never flown an airliner, but I have lots of hours in the air, if that's relevant.
I think it probably is.
But I just don't think that – I think there were several mistakes.
The first officer of that aircraft Only had 500
Yeah
Unfortunately
Well I guess in this case not unfortunately
Because I don't think you can have a pilot's license
Without a university
A university
Well it's not necessarily
A university but you have to
Yeah you have to go to school
Like a lot of school It's the hardest thing I've ever done have to go to school, like a lot of school.
It's the hardest thing I've ever done in my life, honestly, was get a pilot's license.
It was very difficult.
I had to learn all kinds of things that I had no interest in learning.
Well, I mean, you also can't, I don't think you can qualify for a pilot's license without a degree even.
Well, I don't have a degree.
I didn't go to...
I did this when I was 40 years old.
So I don't have a bachelor's degree
or anything like that.
I went through schooling
to get a pilot's license, right?
Which was university,
but I didn't get a bachelor's degree
at the end or anything.
Yeah, and a lot of the crop dusters out in the...
Yeah, so the first officer in that aircraft only had like 300 or 400 hours in flight,
hundred hours in flight and he's he's in charge generally the first officer is in charge of uh
and he's in charge generally.
the systems up on takeoff right the captain is flying the airplane uh copilot's going to be
throttles flaps gear all those things so i'll find it interesting if they have the telemetry
i'd love to see the telemetry um and i know that Synthetica was saying that they turned off the wrong engine.
That's,
that's possibly that's crazy.
Apparently it's happened a couple of times before.
Yeah.
And they didn't have the,
are you sure switch on that?
There's not a,
are you sure switch?
But you know,
when,
when you,
so you get an indicator when
your engine goes out or when you have a fire and thing like that you're you'll get an indicator
and it'll be a very specific indicator you won't have to guess which engine has the issue generally
so i don't but again i think it's going to come down likely to the first officer's lack of experience.
That guy only had like 300 or 400 hours in the air.
In America, you can't even apply to the airlines without 1,500 hours.
So another clue is apparently on video you can hear there's an auxiliary generator that drops when both engines are out to keep the basic power running.
It makes a distinctive sound.
And so apparently that was deployed.
So there were definitely both engines out at some point for some reason.
And the likelihood of losing both engines, like given the nature and reliability of modern jet engines is almost zero. It's very, very low.
So it's some sort of root cause that would cause both engines to go out at the same time. So it could be fuel, but fuel contamination, you can kind of rule out because no other airlines had any issue with that.
And then there's like maybe cyber attack, like somebody sabotaged the aircraft somehow, but nobody claimed responsibility for sabotage, which you would kind of expect.
So it's something that affects both engines, but I think the one where they turn off the wrong engine is probably a good theory.
I think given the first officer's lack of experience, you know, that could very well be the case.
Pilots, I'll just tell you, pilots are in emergencies.
We get into emergency situations quite often, believe it or not.
to emergency situations quite often, believe it or not.
And, you know, you learn how to control your mind
and you don't know how somebody else is going to react
until you've been in a few emergency situations
with that person, right?
And, you know, some people don't have,
what we learned in pilot school was this,
you lose 27% of your cognitive ability when you panic, which means you get 27%
more dumb when you panic. And so someone who's borderline anyway, if they lose 27%, buddy,
you're all dead. I mean, it's also a very complex system to troubleshoot in a time-sensitive situation.
Yes, it is.
I'll be really interested.
The only time I've seen a plane lose both engines is bird strikes, right?
Solely, Miracle, and the Hudson, that kind of deal.
I mean, I've never heard of two engines simultaneously having failures without there being something
and simultaneously having failures without there being something like that.
like that.
So the man had a flame out on one and shut down the other.
Yikes.
But I do know this.
You'll never, ever be able to afford a seat in what was that 11A again on any plane.
Isn't that great?
I mean, that just blows my mind that that guy could jump,
like open the exit door and just bail out and survive. That just blows my mind that that guy could jump,
open the exit door and just bail out and survive.
I wonder if he just really wanted to try skydiving before he died and he figured, well, this is my last chance.
Yeah, I mean, he should buy a lottery ticket.
I think that's the second time that that seat has had a survival on a crash where everyone else died, I think.
I think he's just an average Tom Cruise fan.
Well, then it seems that the plane still flies, which it did.
They're more like a Tenet fan, but like...
Not in reverse.
I wonder if he jumped out with like some of them airline blankets to try and make a parachute.
That's what I'd do. I wonder if he jumped out with some of them airline blankets to try and make a parachute.
That's what I'd do.
I wonder if that would work.
Probably not.
I heard of it happening one other time in World War II,
where a bomber crewman jumped from a stricken bomber and ended up landing kind of like on a hill in snowy trees and actually survived.
But yeah,
pretty,
pretty freak.
Man.
If you look at the,
the history of,
of aviation,
there's a,
there was a stewardess that fell,
I think 30,000 feet and survived.
Wow.
And she went back to being a stewardess, right?
Yeah, she did.
That's some dedication right there.
Like that lady that sunk in two different ships, three different ships?
Like that lady that sunk in two different ships.
Three different ships?
Like,
I think the Titanic,
or the Britannica,
and another warship,
and, like, another one,
and she just kept doing ships.
She went down on, like, three of them.
What about the Unsinkable Cat?
Do you know the Unsinkable Cat?
Similar thing, actually.
Do not. A cat that's been on, like, a ton of fucking ships that sank. Like, in the cat? Similar thing, actually. Do not.
Cat that's been on a ton of fucking ships that sank.
Like in the army, I believe, even.
Because they sold cats and shit.
Yeah, I think it was the British Navy.
They used to have cats on their ships to control the rats.
Oh, and they also sometimes gave puppies and cats to soldiers
because it's a good companion thing to have.
Also, I'm not sure if it was a psychological weapon of some sort because if the enemy
killed your cat i don't know but you know it turned the soldiers on now you really get a kill
thanks yeah true like you've been looking after this cat, but the enemy kills your cat. Boy. Boy. You're cracked now, man.
You're out of it.
You're done.
Yeah, we go full John Wick.
Exactly.
Two things happen.
John Wick or complete uselessness.
But you know who's cat that was?
That was Mad Jack Churchill.
He's going to kill you with a longbow, boy.
Exactly, yeah.
Did you know that name's cat? Gonna kill you with a longbow, boy! Exactly, yeah.
Did you know that name's cat?
It's the same one that... It's the same name that the guy who made Cthulhu gave him!
You can never say it!
Uh...
You guys know about Mad Jack Churchill, right?
Not really, do explain.
He's the only soldier with a confirmed kill with a longbow in World War II.
What?
Wow, how? Why?
He just always carried a longbow and a broads think it was a longbow and a broadsword
into every battle.
Just because he was kind of
fucking nuts.
He also scared the shit out of some German
soldiers by playing the bagpipes
once.
And I believe he was also a professional surfer
and model outside of his military
career.
Just a really fascinating fella.
What the fuck?
Wild.
How did he
scare, like, how is it scary
when back, I don't understand, what did he do
with them that made it scary?
I mean, it's the middle of a war field
and this guy is like
pretty much
in a completely fucked situation and all of a sudden
you just hear a fucking bagpipe?
Like,
okay.
I'd be apprehensive.
You can't imagine how hyped his team was, though.
I believe his team was dead.
Or did you just mean a general,
like, being on his team?
Because I bet that was hype.
There goes Jack with his broadsword.
How does he not get shot?
I don't know.
Never does.
I'm amazed there's not a movie about that guy.
What was his name again?
Jack Churchill.
Usually referred to as Mad Jack.
Real.
I mean, to be honest,
it's not a bad idea carrying a bow
like in World War II.
That's a real good stealth weapon
that is true yeah people don't understand that the hollywood version of silencer
is not a real thing also the call of duty version of silencer is also not a real thing
that was actually even worse than the hollywood like movie version of a silencer you know why
because in call of duty when you put on a fucking silencer and a weapon,
it reduces the accuracy and range.
That's bullshit.
It doesn't actually do that.
And also, it's not silent either.
It's just less loud.
It's got a lot more thud to it, if I recall correctly.
A lot less bam, a lot more
ugh.
Let's be real. In the heat of
battle, it's hard as shit to hit
something.
Yeah, but
still, the silencer is not making
your accuracy go to shit. That's just
you, man. That's just a skill issue.
Yeah, like. The chances of
actually hitting your target when
they're shooting bullets back at you and
you're trying to not get shot.
May I introduce to you
MG42. It's horizontal
bullet rain. Yay!
Can't see your target?
No problem!
The target will see you!
Can just lay down? It doesn't even matter if it's coming in their direction, just lay down if you hear it.
May I introduce to you, Airstrikes?
You can lay down, but you can't in fact hide.
And if you have the ability to hide, let me introduce you to the pallet deployed mother
of all bombs that makes massive craters in the ground.
Oh, you guys want to hide out in caves you dug in these mountains here, huh?
Well, you see the thing about caves. Here's some nice caves you got there.
It'd be a shame if they went bigger.
Hey, you're pretty gangster in those caves.
Your sky is starting to miss some pixels.
Starting to miss some pixels.
And the thing that's doing that's called a B12.
And the thing that's doing that's called a B12.
And it's a sneaky bitch.
That's why it's called a stealth bomber.
I had an idea for an alternate universe anime where instead of bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
the U.S. bombs Mount Fuji.
And as a result...
Like a volcanic eruption or something?
Yeah, and it causes everyone in that area to get superpowers, just because.
Fair enough. I mean, if you're gonna be unrealistic about the fact that, you know,
you're bombing a volcano for the purposes of making it erupt, then yeah, may as well
get some superpowers, because by the way, newsflash, blowing up dormant volcanoes does
not reactivate them. That's not how that works.
No, no, the point's more to destroy a symbol of Japan than demoralize him.
Ah, I see. I see.
Okay.
Have you all heard about the bat bombs
that that one general
was trying to do?
He was trying to release
a whole bunch of bats that were on fire
to go and burn down the cities
because Japan used a lot of wood.
Yeah, they tried to train the bats too and then eventually the project got shelved because then they nuked the place you know common research dilemma
I remember the one where they tried to change they tried to make pigeon-guided bombs. Yeah.
That's cool.
See, by the way, guys,
we're gonna go back to that
one day.
You know that, right?
Really?
Pigeon-guided bombs, specifically?
Not pigeons, but we're
definitely gonna go back to bio-brain-guided war. Well? Not pigeons, but we're definitely going to go back to biobrain-guided war.
Like, weapons.
That's happening.
Thought bombs?
No, you could just, you know...
Let's say you wanted to pilot something in a certain way, and you just...
I don't know.
Just give it a fruit fly brain and make it super annoying like a drone that just has a fruit fly controlling it freaking out trying to eat some fucking
like nectar but it can't figure it out The drone's just cutting up the fucking flour? Exactly, so you
label the enemy
people, the enemy's heads,
as nectar, and there you go, problem solved.
Make them hungry, too. Just because.
Why not?
Right?
Do not build this!
I know someone's gonna try and build this shit.
I'm telling you not to.
I mean,
I don't think a fruit fly brain has enough power to be honest.
Well,
I don't know.
All you need really is for it to 50,
50 shot.
Yeah.
It's possible.
It's possible.
Just give it a different body, man.
Don't make it do anything super...
You know.
Don't make it super confusing.
You don't need to. Wait, who am I?
That's in my Discord server? That's pretty cool.
Yeah, he's in there for a...
I invited him in.
Nice.
You know, it would probably be more effective
to just give a bunch of mosquitoes
some, like, rare communicable disease
and just let those go over your target.
Oh, yeah, by the way, fun fact.
Did you know there's a specific type of, like,
mRNA deliverable that replicates itself?
So you can literally have a self-replicating virus.
It's pretty retarded.
But it's DNA.
By the way, that's the next
bird and flu shot in 2025.
Oh! That's right!
That's now!
So I don't know. If you want to inject yourself with that,
that's your choice. I'm not doing it.
I want to see what superpowers this patch gives me.
Absolutely fucking not. You are not kidding.
I'm going to get it just to see if he gives me more autism.
Bro out here goes to like like He realizes he's autistic
Like maybe I could get more
Goes and gets like fucking 15 other flu shots
Bruh
You know like
If they actually did cause autism though
We would have a much better
Trade system in the United States
Imagine if like every person on earth had autism
There'd be no more
wars.
There'd be a lot of trains.
Mm-hmm.
You want to solve wars?
Make everyone autistic.
That's what they were trying to do the whole
time. Didn't you hear, Jenna McCarthy?
Here we go. Mm-hmm. time didn't you hear jenna mccarthy real
i just ate an entire container of strawberries like a degenerate yum yum yum yum yum yum
and best fruit you have no idea
i had to like eat this chicken with seed oils and shit.
It was so fucking bad.
I mean, hey, it's the only thing you can get that was, like, close by.
It was pretty fun, though.
I slept in a hotel.
Because, uh, my flight was cancelled.
And there's one that was provided.
So I slept in this really fucked up ass hotel, man.
I'm not telling you the name for obvious reasons, but, um, it, like, if you knew it was so fucking, it's so fucking stupid.
But still, the pillows were like white pillows, right, with covers on them?
And underneath it was a pillow that had so many stains, the white pillow turned brown.
And underneath it was a pillow that had so many stains, the white pillow turned brown.
And a friend of mine was right next door.
His room had a mattress with a lot of weird brown circles on him.
Those were also stains. I don't want to know whose whatever that is is, okay?
But yeah.
Breakfast was alright.
Can't believe I...
Like, looking at the room, should it make you go,
there's no way I'm eating there?
But I looked at it and went, eh, what could they make wrong?
I'm still alive, so we good.
Well, hey, at least it didn't make you make brown stains.
Ha ha ha!
That's why I got dinner elsewhere, eh?
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Oh, and fun part.
The water in the shower was cold and hot, right?
But there was a nice little twist to it.
The shower, when you turned it to cold, it was extra cold.
When you turned it to warm, it was just cold.
I'm like, oh, that's interesting.
But plot twist, if you open the tap, that one is hot and cold.
So I was like, huh, I'm going to make the tap very hot.
Then I'm going to take the tea kettle. I'm going to fill the tap very hot. Then I'm going to take the tea kettle.
I'm going to fill the tea kettle with the water.
And then as I'm showering with the cold water,
I'm going to take the boiling water and put it
over myself and effectively mix it in real time.
So that's what I did.
Yeah.
Survival, bitch.
Holy unnecessary.
That sounds like at least a four-star joint.
I don't even know what that was,
but two-star would make sense.
Generously.
You know what was funny?
They have their little receptacle
for the hotel card, card right i put it in
there to turn the power on and then i looked at and i was like you know when i put it in there
the color don't change i'm gonna turn all the lights on then i'm gonna take it out i turned
all the lights out and took it out the lights didn't turn off i was like all right so that
thing doesn't work i'm gonna turn the aircon on while I'm gone.
And then come back.
The aircon barely worked.
That's like the absolute worst.
It drives me nuts.
I don't know how Europeans do it.
Well, they don't. That's why it's law.
Oh, and a lot of people die from heat.
It's mean.
Darling, what's happening?
Why aren't you touching any more of the fascist utopia?
That's Europe.
I don't know what the fuck's
wrong with those people. I don't understand what's wrong
with our government, man. Like, how the fuck can you make
it illegal to have an
air conditioning on during fucking
summer, bro? It's literally
only, like, that time of the year that it's
super hot and nice.
Just absolutely cock.
I don't understand.
I don't want to hear from
European of how nice
things are. I'm like, bro, your government
measures your
fucking room temperature
during winter to ensure that your place isn't too hot.
And because if it is, you get arrested.
What the fuck is wrong with you people?
And I'm European. I'm pissed.
I didn't vote for this fuck shit.
What's wrong with you normies?
Get your shit together. Fuck.
Stop trying to kill the economy.
I happen to live in it.
What if you just happen to be doing some chemical bonding that produces a lot of heat?
Is that illegal?
I know, right?
What if I'm chemically bonding to you?
Like, bruh.
Freedom of expression, man.
Just doing some chemical reactions in your bathtub?
Yeah.
Yeah, don't worry.
I'm not going to do anything too stupid.
Nah, I'm not going to do anything too stupid.
However, we are going to talk about
how to make mustard gas. Heard of it?
Just kidding.
Don't make that shit. Don't even think about it. It talk about how to make mustard gas out of it. Just kidding. Don't make that shit.
Don't even think about it.
It's very easy to make, and that's why it's very dangerous.
Some products, if you combine them in your toilet, it's really bad.
I want to say what it is, but I don't feel like I should.
Basically, don't mix cleaning chemicals.
Yeah, yeah.
Bad idea.
I mean, it seems like people should just generally be informed not to mix ammonia and bleach.
Yes.
I see what you did there.
Yeah. See? ammonia and bleach yes I see what you did see don't do that don't mix the two very different weird substances like the super liquidy one that smells ass and
the super powdery one that then smells ass when it's liquid because if it touches the ass liquid
And the
And it mixes
It really turns into something
That if you smell it, that's the last thing you'll ever smell
It's really bad
Here's the best smell in the world
What is?
I was just being retarded
Piece of shit
So there's no one who can tell you what mustard gas smells like
Exactly
Because anybody who's ever done that is dead
I mean
I think you get like two or three whiffs
Before you're dead.
It's just some brain damage on the first couple.
Bro!
Just saying.
Oh my god.
I like how this makes logical sense.
It's like, oh yeah, I still got some brain cells.
It's like, what's still like, um...
Right.
I was gonna like ask, how much brain power do you
still need to even retain function i don't think we need the answer to that i mean it's kind of
like there's a lot of stuff that you can have a little bit of that you really just shouldn't
and that's on the list along with mercury just you can have a very small amount but you really just
shouldn't look but all possible these are things to avoid hey I also understand
that mercury is like a liquid you know what do liquids like to do they like to
do a thing that's called evaporates turn it to a gas. You ever heard of mercury gas before? Not nice.
It's not gas, it's just vapor.
You know.
So then if you breathe that shit in, it fucking
does things.
Bad things.
Mmm.
Don't play with mercury in the summer, kids.
Or in general. Yeah yeah or ever really yeah about a few months yeah fume hoods gloves like you take proper safety precautions yeah don't be fucking around with that shit. Yeah.
Although my dad likes to tell stories of breaking thermometers and poking the mercury with a stick.
I'm just like, well, that explains a lot.
Bro, that's a perfect line.
Right there.
Hey, that's what I was warned about
as a kid as well. It's like, don't break the thermostat.
Like, the thermometer, yeah.
Actually, they told me the same story. It's like, do I break the thermostat? Like, that's the thermometer, yeah. Actually, they told
me the same story. It's like, hey, man, people used to
break those things and watch as the thing just
seeps into the tiles. I'm like,
what?
Why?
The past was the worst.
Hmm?
The past was the worst.
It definitely was
now future kids
they just be watching brain rot videos
instead of playing with mercury
not sure if that's actually a better thing
that was a joke
no it's fair I don't know which one is worse
we'll have to wait for the results No, it's fair. I don't know which one is worse.
We'll have to wait for the results.
Maybe you're rexing it with heavy metal, so yeah.
What's up, guys?
Hey, guys.
I said, hey, guys.
Because, you know, why not?
Because it's fucking stupid, I guess.
I don't know. Hey Hey man, what's up?
What's up Adrian lies?
Suraj Laura cat holy shit. I haven't seen you guys in a while. What's up alternate Adrian?
And I don't have to say anything just show your hand. Yeah, there we go
Epic hey, yeah, how you guys been pretty good. Hey, did you see we rebranded the community? It's an order now.
Don't worry.
We're not going to summon any demons.
We don't do those kinds of things.
You have to talk to the other circle people for that one.
Just demons.
Asmodeus is going to be
bummed when he hears about this.
I'm all for
summoning and releasing demons.
Jesus Christ.
But no, man, so if you ever have
another robotic space, you can have it under that
thing we try to get out of the politics thing.
So we just decided, hey, what if I just
made the community an independent thing?
Where it's like we only focus on the information
and we just remove the politics part.
Because I don't want to deal with that.
Ironically, I pre-mined the apolitical thing quite early.
I think throughout peak politics.
I have just decided.
You know what?
I'm going to start posting esoteric memes.
That was just my reward function.
It's like well.
It's 2025.
We did the whole thing we hated the thing but it was
very successful for us regardless
we told a whole bunch of people
that we were smooth brained
because they called us superiors
so I had to like meme that and be
well I am superior at one thing
being smoother than you
and so after that I decided well I've had enough of this bullshit period, one thing, being smoother than you.
And so after that, I decided,
well, I've had enough of this bullshit.
We're just, like, gonna start posting esoteric images.
We're gonna go, like, we're gonna go to New Zealand.
We're gonna get our cognitive security in check.
You know, we'll come back, and we're gonna talk about triangles,
and we're gonna talk about all kinds of things, but we're just gonna leave that world behind and man was that a good decision long term i feel like that has paid off immensely well it
could have probably generated more numbers if i kept doing the politics thing it would have just
genuinely been soulless and uh a short-lived thing in the grand scheme of things you know
would have lost a lot of bridges
that are infinitely more valuable than the ones that would have given you the most attention.
But that's kind of the price you pay in some ways, right? Especially when you consider,
hey, let's just not do the thing that's the most populist. Although definitely, I do remember
saying one thing about this political aspect.
Like, hey, the populist position, that's going to be the future.
And now Elon's creating his political party.
Man, was I right.
Yeah, I hear you.
Later this month, I'm going to fully rebrand and just clean up my account
because I can finally talk about what I've been working on for a long time.
Yeah.
I feel like also a lot of war came out of that specific area.
Because, you know, everybody had like a position.
And my position was, well, I don't really have a position,
but I'm going to troll everybody.
So here we go.
So then everybody thought I was MAGA. then somebody else thought I was a Democrat.
Then there was a weird thing where everybody called me a Zionist for a bit, and I was like, okay.
That's my fault.
Bruh.
I keep telling them you're Jew.
him you're jew what the fuck okay i mean i do have man in my last name you know i still can't
What the fuck?
Okay.
believe that the racists haven't caught on to that part it could literally just like be flaming
me for my name the whole time i don't understand like they're not really that bright you know
they're in the comments like hey is this guy jewish and i'm just like yes bruh wait seriously no i'm i'm full of it i did that to chad once though
that would actually be kind of funny yeah he got a death threat out of it oh my god
oh my god wow nice another one another one we can add to the pile amazing
the internet's a
fascinating place isn't it
yeah you're gonna poke the hive
mind and then the hive mind pokes you
wait I think I want
to kill this guy first I have to get
confirmation
is this guy Jewish
exactly yeah what the hell First, I have to get confirmation. Is this guy Jewish? Exactly, yeah.
Alright, cool.
What the hell?
That's insane.
Yeah.
You poked into the void, now the void
pokes back.
That is wild.
I think I'm missing the context for that statement, by the way.
The context was Picard's thing. Trolling. Chat ban.
The Jewish thing?
Yes. So upon someone's realization that he may or may not be a Jew,
that guy then sent him a death threat, which is like, okay, damn, what
the fuck.
Yeah, but why does that matter?
I guess I'm missing the context.
No, because some people are bigoted.
Yeah, you can't rationalize retardation.
It's just a thing that exists out there in physical space, right?
Like, it's not a position to be having.
You can just acknowledge that the shit exists, right?
You can just remove all the guilt
from it just by talking about it in a sense
where it's like, hey, it's really just
bullshit. We're just going to have to address what is
effectively the non-existent elephant
in the room. The elephant in the room
is actually schizophrenia, you know?
The elephant in the room is a schizophrenic person
in a room is a schizophrenic person who thinks he's an elephant, but there really isn't one.
who thinks he's an elephant, but there
really isn't one.
That's funny.
Have you ever met a person who told you were the elephant? I don't know, man. I feel like
that's a new one. I don't think I want to find that, but I feel like it's going to find me.
Schizophrenia is like your friend, but they can't leave you
and sometimes they tell you to stab the couch
because it's trying to take you to the mental hospital.
What in the fuck?
Schizophrenia is like
tax evasion, you know?
You do a whole bunch of random things
and all of a sudden you unlock a free friend somewhere
that you never even knew you had.
In that case, it's at the IRS and and he's going to be watching everything you're doing.
Then he's going to take you out to dinner and cook you.
You just made tax evasion sound pretty cool.
Oh, God.
This is like people will do anything other than just fix their problems.
Like, man, I'm lonely.
Let me just commit tax evasion so I can unlock a free friend at the IRS very bad idea
What if that's what the AI does like what if we had an AI agents like I'm alone time to commit tax fraud like what?
When I was still working at banking we would uh occasionally see something like that to happen
to someone on like in the building and it is always real funny because you would see the dudes
like in the middle of summer like pulling up with just these massive coats because they make the just to mess with the guy. What?
Yeah, they'll put the AC on the lowest setting.
It'll go whenever there's someone and they're doing an audit,
just so that they're uncomfortable.
That's weird.
What the...
Nice.
It was like 95 degrees,
and you see dudes pulling up in like
These big ass sweaters
You know what was happening
You saw the feds come in that morning
It was that common and that bad?
I was inside one of the exchange buildings
So like
You're talking there's a bunch, a bunch of, like, small, small banks in the same building.
So, everyone was always having some sort of shit going on.
Huh.
Interesting.
I mean, it was wild.
I think I told you about the cocaine ledge in the bathroom.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That one's really cool. Andre, it was wild. I think I told you about the cocaine ledge in the bathroom. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That one's really cool.
Andre, listen to this.
This one's pretty cool.
Picard, tell Andre about the cocaine ledge.
Yes. So every floor had, like, the same bathroom.
But people ran out, like, a quarter floor, an eighth of a floor, whatever.
And there was a – it was just a normal bathroom. But there was a it's just a normal bathroom but there was
a room with a ledge on it that the door closed and all day you would just see dudes come in with
like 20 year old women and then come out of that room like real happy
okay hold on hold on uh that's quite a story story, but why was I singled out for this story?
Because you haven't heard it yet, and now you know.
So now when you hear the words cocaine ledge, you know what it means nobody else does, and you're forced to explain it.
Okay, okay, but hold on.
How does cocaine tie into guys walking in with women into a bathroom coming out happy?
Well, because those are hookers and it's
basically hookers and cocaine and that's how stock market works it's an empty room with just a ledge
yes and people are going in and out regularly
if you're walking in with a woman uh you don't need any kind of ledge for any kind of cocaine you can figure out that stuff
differently jesus christ he's figuring it out i see i see i see exactly i'm picking up what
you're putting down there yep i don't know what you're talking about bro i don't know what you're
talking about either but i'm still picking it up.
Oh, man.
That's funny.
By the way, Adrian, did you say you went to New Zealand recently?
Yeah, I went to New Zealand like a while back.
Earlier this year, actually.
Did you visit Hobbiton?
No, no, I didn't have the time for that.
I was there for computer shit.
It's funny, like, it's technically... It was technically, like,
a vacation of sorts, really,
but all I did was just to go there
to do different work, effectively.
It was fun!
Yeah, yeah.
Auckland is kind of nice, actually.
It is really, really nice.
I was a while back there for also computer stuff.
But, yeah, I had to make it out
to Hobbiton.
For a city, it's actually quite clean i guess it's pretty decent yeah and it's it's like it's a good
enough city size i mean i guess everyone is on the north island it's like four million people total
and the city is like a million um but yeah it's uh hobbiton for everyone it's like uh it's Hobbiton for everyone. It's literally what it sounds like.
It's like the Lord of the Rings Hobbit town
where they got the Shire and everything
and they got the, what do you call that?
The market, I forgot the name,
from Lord of the Rings, but yeah.
Yeah.
It's where everybody goes
because you want to understand the lore.
And you have the people who are the normies who go like, I don't think I need to
understand Lord of the Rings lore. That doesn't
make sense. What kind of real world
applications does that have?
I'm like, um, do you know what a
Palantir is?
Do you know what that
means? It's
literally an orb.
Like, it's
literally a data orb
from Lord of the Rings
that sees everything.
That's funny.
Made by the elves.
It's got that two-bit encryption and everything.
Yeah, literally.
This is actually what it is.
Go look it up. That's what Palantir means.
Oh, by the way,
if you want a nice little schizo attack, what you need to do is don't do this if you'reir means. Oh, by the way, if you want a nice little schizo attack,
what you need to do is
don't do this if you're not set on mine, by the way.
You need to look up what their latest crypto exchange
thing is and then research
how that fits into the lore as well.
It's a fun one.
I don't know why
Theo keeps doing this to himself.
I mean, that's hilarious.
That's coming from the guy who literally just like renamed his community into a fucking order. I mean, that's hilarious. That's coming from the guy who literally just, like, renamed his community
into a fucking order. I mean, I don't know.
Maybe he's just
misunderstood. And then they had, like, this interview
with Peter Thiel, and they, like, they
ask him about, like, whether or not he wants
humanity to survive, and he takes a moment
because, you know, you have to, like, kind of compute that a little bit.
Be like, oh, well, I mean, why is that
so hard to, like, you know, compute whatever humanity is?
I'm like, well, I mean, maybe is it, like, humanoid cyborgs? Like, what is the future of humanity? What does survival entail? You know, it's like, oh, well, I mean, why is that so hard to, like, you know, compute whatever humanity is? I'm like, well, I mean, maybe is it, like, humanoid cyborgs?
Like, what is the future of humanity?
What does survival entail?
You know, it's like, if you're autistic, you start to think about a lot of things.
So you're like, okay, what's socially, like, how do I, like, how do I, like, make this
socially acceptable?
You know, it's nothing, it's nothing fucked up.
We just have to, like, you know, curate out of the possible futures, like, which one the
curate out of the possible futures, like, which one the best one is that we're gonna use, right?
best one is that we're going to use, right?
And so he just sits there, and everybody's like,
well, so I think Peter Thiel's the Antichrist.
I'm like, that makes no fucking sense. You clearly have no idea what you're doing. First of all, he's not
gonna be the Antichrist. You know why? Because the Antichrist is gonna be loved by the masses,
and Peter Thiel is not loved by the masses.
Okay? There you go.
You have to understand a little bit of
the religious thing, right?
So if anyone's going to be an Antichrist, even if there is an Antichrist,
it's not going to be fucking that guy.
He's not loved enough,
which is just ironic, I guess.
By the way, right now as we're talking about this,
I'm cutting off this
big, like, fatty ridge off my sirloin
that I then turn into tallow later.
Bro, that's the best part.
Yeah, exactly. That's why I take that and I turn it into tallow.
Because before, I would just fry the meat
and then just cut it off and throw it away.
And so I realized, well, since I don't
want to eat the fatty part, because I
just genuinely don't like the feeling of that,
I'm just like, hey, I still
want to eat the fat, though, so what if I just
extract the fat out of the thing
and use that to fry the meat
instead? So I'm literally frying meat
in the meat stuff.
Cool, I...
It is kind of funny. I do agree with you.
It's like, I don't know, the consistency of
fat on the meat is kind of annoying, unless
there's a tiny amount and a lot
of meat. And then it's like, it's actually
pretty fucking delicious.
So I've solved all those problems now.
That compounding flavor profile
too.
So now I win
because I have tallow, which means I have some excellent
stuff to fry my steak in. I eat the fat because I'm using the tallow to fry the steak in.
And then, you know, and it's a cycle, which means that I have to cut off, like, for every
piece, like, all those pieces make up enough tallow to sustain, like, two-week cycles,
right? So every two week cycle, my Guys, did I cash out?
Yeah, you cut out there.
Just, uh,
Rugged three.
Adrian did or did I?
He's being repressed.
How?
He's being silenced.
No, no, you guys don't
understand. He got to the very good part about
getting the meat right, and then he just
left us on a cliffhanger
here.
Real.
He'll be back after he finishes eating an entire
steak.
Fuck Periscope. I'll be back after he finishes eating an entire steak. Fuck Periscope.
He's fine, Beck.
Annoying piece of shit.
Fuck.
Alright, there we go.
I was poking around at the code for Periscope, like the network traffic.
The audio is only at 32 kbps.
Like, that's atrocious.
I know!
That's lower than the lowest MP3.
But that's not the part that's actually interesting.
The part that's really interesting is the one where you look into
what exactly constitutes as a recognized connection in the system
that then gets computed as a listener.
That's the part where it gets actually interesting.
Have you figured that out yet?
Yes, it's a WebRTC turn server.
Do you realize why that's a fucking problem?
Yeah.
I've been telling everybody
it's a big fucking problem
but nobody does anything.
I mean,
it depends on what they're doing
on their servers
but based on their network pack
it's nothing good.
Yeah.
That's exactly what I've been saying
for fucking years.
Nobody believes it.
I was thinking about telling Yasin,
but then if I tell him what that is,
it's like, how do you know that?
I'm like, okay, I am autistic.
Does that help you? No.
So I just sit here and I go,
help!
You know?
That's what I said.
Look, after a while, you just start to
look at the system and go, hey,
I can just poke this and go,
wow!
Shiny!
Or they could go, wow!
It's a turd!
You know, you're like walking in the dog park and you're like,
why is that so warm and squishy?
Oh, that's right.
That is my blood pressure that's about to go up after realizing why exactly that is the way it is.
That is the internal dialogue, by the way, for somebody who tries to be like super optimistic.
That's like literally copium and hopium all at the same time.
My bro overdosing on copium, you know, he like copes infinitely.
I don't like coping.
It's fucking stupid.
I don't like coping as a such a, as a thing.
Like information-based coping is, is insane.
It's, it's really bad for you.
Because then you take, you look at a shitty situation and instead of solving the problem,
you just cope with it. That's what I mean with
why cope is bad.
Let's say some situations you legitimately
can't solve.
So instead of wasting your time on an unsolvable
thing, you just kind of cope with it.
Like death, for instance.
You'll die. Like, oh, fuck, man.
I realize I'm going to die. I don't have time on Earth.
I'm just going to put that off until eventually
it catches me by surprise, you know?
Like, something like that.
You hope to not get
cancer or something, or whatever it is.
It's like, you just cope with this in life.
Or you just cope with chances
and all this kind of stuff. That's stuff you can
cope with, and it's stuff that you kind of have to cope with,
you know? But coping with
things that you can actually solve, no. No, no. That's bad. Like say, for instance, you have a skill issue.
So you have two choices. Get better or stop. Now, a coping thing would be, hey, I fucked up at this
task. And you're like, well, it was because of this thing, it was because of that thing, it was because of that thing.
And all those things are totally made up, by the way.
So it's like, that's coping,
and it's kind of fucking stupid.
Or like trying to dodge consequence.
You know, like you fucked up some system somewhere,
and you go, well, it's not exactly what I wanted.
I'm like, well, that's exactly what happened.
So yeah, now you know we don't do that anymore.
That is like, that is like coping, you know? And't do that anymore. That is like coping.
And so when somebody does not ever get the message.
That they're just coping for no fucking reason.
Then we just say that the bro is overdosing on copium.
And copium is just like this illogical drive.
To keep having hope for things.
Even though you realize it's totally fucking over.
It's like taking your car and realize it's totally fucking over.
It's like taking your car and crashing it in a ditch somewhere, and going like, yeah, I still have hope that that thing is going to reassemble itself perfectly
and be just parked in the back of my fucking garage somewhere when I get back home,
even though it's still in a ditch.
Right? It's like, okay, well, there you go.
Well, that's not going to happen, though, right?
So you're doing the hopium thing.
Hopium and copium.
Very dangerous drugs.
One makes you think that everything's fine,
because sometimes it has to, and other times it doesn't.
The other one makes you say everything is fine,
even though it definitely fucking isn't.
That's why it's one of the sins that comes out of Pandora's box.
it comes out of Pandora's box.
Ta-da!
Ta-da!
There's hope for things, but if you are...
if you don't have action, you are cooked.
The devil will find work for idle hands, after all.
So, realize that doing things is godly.
So, realize that doing things is godly.
Oh, my god, that smells amazing.
Sorry, I just took a big fucking whiff out of my spice cabinet.
Like a big one.
Kept it in there for a while.
Now I am seasoned.
That sounds wrong.
But then again, the entire concept of a seasoned individual
has a slippery slope connotation to it.
What do you mean with a seasoned individual?
I mean, I understand what it means.
I can think it apart, but...
I don't know, man.
What if I didn't really get that correctly?
What if I thought that the person was actually seasoned?
And I'm like, wow.
That's something.
Then we would have to have a nice discussion about the difference between seasons,
as in autumn and summer and winter and seasonings.
I don't know if it would be a nice, enjoyable moment for both of us.
Because you'd get to learn and I'd get to teach.
Yeah, 100%.
But you have to tell your guy over here with the big-ass club not to smash that other guy because he thinks he seasoned well.
The reality is seasoning is a broad concept that encompasses a variety of arenas and different types of specializations.
And you can be seasoned in one area, but not all areas.
So somebody can have experience and have skills dealing with certain things and still get flummoxed when they deal with something new or something different.
I mean, that doesn't make them useless. It just means that seasoning is a relative concept and your mileage may vary depending on the specifics of the situation and the person
involved.
Like for instance, when I don't season all parts of the thing I'm about to grill.
No, that's another problem with the seasoning. Like you said, there's some parts that have been missing.
Yes, that pork rub has not been rubbed properly.
We have a problem. Houston, we have a problem.
The pork rub's not proper. The crackling's
gonna be half seasoned, half unseasoned. What the fuck?
That's a
specialist in a nutshell.
Good as a thing,
but not all things.
I haven't seasoned the pork,
but like the crackling is good.
Like, that works.
But I guess, did you cook the whole thing for the crackling,
or did you cook the whole thing for the pork and the crackling?
You know?
Hey, that's a really good metaphor.
We can use this for things.
Yeah, that's a really good metaphor metaphor we could make a religion out of this
like with civilization you know you ever watched like the what is that called the fucking one one minute or like two minutes of like all of history I guess
that video is like cool something like that I guess. And then it's just him going through all the stages of human development.
And then all of a sudden it's like civilization.
And then somebody makes some sort of reference to a supernatural event.
And then this guy's like, oh, and they had the thing.
We can make a religion out of this.
If you're hearing that in my voice, it's like, hey, we can make a religion out of this. I keep hearing that in my voice. It's like, hey, we can make
a religion out of this.
And I'm sizzling my steak, which
is really great. We can make a religion out
of this.
I mean, that'd be a pretty badass.
For legal reasons, you know,
maybe not going there is
a better idea. Oh yeah, no, 100%.
But it's also entirely possible that there's like this one guy out there
who keeps dodging the taxes from the IRS
because he has a religion that believes in a giant wall of sound.
And it's like literally a massive wall of speakers.
Hold on, hold on.
I like this idea about steak- driven, carnivore driven religion.
Instead of a, what do you call it? A wine and bread. It gotta be a cab and a steak.
Yes.
For communion.
Do you believe there's a registry for such groups in the United States?
Yes.
Not meat specific ones, but like niche religions.
Yes.
We can call it the church of steak and getting blowjobs. Yes.
We can call it the church of stake and getting blowjobs.
You uncivilized
motherfucker, man.
Every day is stake and blowjob day.
Horrible. Absolutely horrible.
What the fuck's wrong with you?
Get some culture in you, son!
You gotta stake your entire
life in the stake religion. Exactly, yeah.
Just like those guys did with the
fucking flying spaghetti monster. The fact that
everybody forgot about that is fucking tragic.
I will never
forget the pastafarians.
I also will not forget those guys.
They were like literally wearing fucking pastor
strainers as hats. It was great.
I remember seeing that shit as a kid.
I saw a picture of someone's
state ID with a
strainer.
Amazing. We found one.
That's incredible.
That's my second favorite religion troll.
My top has to be the Satanic Temple.
Those guys kill me.
The what?
Oh, the Satanic Temple.
It's a group where whenever they try to put the Ten Commandments up at a state building,
they wheel up a giant statue of Baphomet asking for equal representation.
It's great.
Are you serious?
Yeah, this is an actual thing.
Also, the leader of the group gay married the mother Of the guy from the Westboro Baptist Church
At her grave
Which also made me laugh
Dude, it wouldn't surprise me
With the current way
Things are working
That that might even happen
Like that there will be some sort of representation
On that level
I just have the tiniest feeling about that
that's also very signally
and that's a problem
last I checked
they had centers in
20 plus states
interesting
they're pretty organized
ah organization we can make a religion out of this Hmm. Interesting. They're pretty organized. Ah, organization.
We can make a religion out of this.
There you go, see?
I mean, I think they made a religion out of trolling, basically.
Because you can make a religion out of corporate LinkedIn,
where everybody speaks and brainwrap constantly.
Like, they congratulate, they superficially
congratulate themselves, even.
It's like, we gotta call that
daily affirmations where you stare into a mirror
and you congratulate the guy
next to you, but it's all just like you.
I support this notion!
I hate this notion I hate this notion
I probably should add that the
satanic temple does not worship
satan just in case people
didn't know that fact either
so what do they
worship
secularism
mainly
what the fuck is going on I don't like the notion but I saw Yeah. Secularism, mainly.
What the fuck is going on? I don't like the notion, but I saw the Figma,
and that was looking pretty good.
Wild.
It's basically a group along the same lines
as the Pastafarians.
Yeah, wouldn't it be funny if we had a whole bunch of people
with a driver's license that looked kind of similar to that,
but they had our own quirk? Nah, just kidding. That it be funny if we had a whole bunch of people with a driver's licenses that looked kind of similar to that But they had our own quirk
Just kidding
It would be so stupid, but it's still hilarious a chef's hat
Yeah, it's like chef's hat. It's like the a
Yeah
Rune skate party hats from the Christmas crackers. I don't know what those are. I've never played the game
That's funny that you mentioned that so hold on listen uh bitcoin is best explained by literally the room escape party hat
uh it's kind of funny um it's like the most useless item that everyone was given and they're
like completely no one cared about it and then one guy got the bright idea bought up a bunch
and then people realized it's limited
supply and it became the stupidest most expensive item meaning like if you have a party hat you can
buy every single other useful item probably like a hundred times over like it's just it was that
stupid but yeah my buddy sold his for cash uh to pay for his college he had a bunch though
Buddy sold his for cash to pay for his college.
He had a bunch, though.
Yeah, it's wild.
They were literally selling it at some point.
I think it was $1,000 each.
No, it was more than that.
My friend sold his for $3,000 each.
Yeah.
But it's literally the most useless item
that was just given away for free initially.
That's crazy.
I also
find it fascinating that
RuneScape plays a
notable role in the
Venezuelan economy.
Oh yeah!
That's right.
Egypt too? They can in fact
just use in-game currency as
the real currency for manufacturing.
Yes.
They do that in prison also?
It's like Bitcoin mining. It's basically Bitcoin
mining, but with bots that mine the game.
But yeah, they use it
in prisons and stuff because
the guards can't log into your
game character and take your coins away.
Amazing, isn't it?
That's pretty funny.
Pretty wicked version of you can just do things, huh?
You can just create a game
and have it become a real-world economy.
Okay.
Like CSGO.
Oh, yeah.
I'll do. If you guys don't understand CSGO, like what it is, it's a game. Oh yeah. I do.
If you guys don't understand CSGO, like what it is,
it's a game. It's a shooter game.
Now you'd be wondering, how is
the economy around this? Well,
for some fucking reason,
they figured out that you can trade
CSGO skins
for Bitcoins.
Or just like fractions of Bitcoins
always, right? So it's like, hey, you have the valuation
of whatever skin this is, and then
basically people buy this shit
and then they speculate on
like, whether or not
it's going to go up in value. Or even worse, they just buy
a whole bunch of boxes and just open those
boxes like crazy and hope they find something
that covers the whole cost and
maybe leads to profit.
It's like gambling.
Basically.
maybe not as retarded.
I don't like gambling.
I would have liked gambling.
I don't know why. I've never done poker.
I've never done that.
I don't like card games in general, that's why.
Everything is gambling
if you're degenerate enough.
Yeah, do you remember the
do you remember those live streams
where people were gambling on things?
Do you know there was a rock racing
thing once?
Do you guys remember that? Remember the rock
racing?
No, I don't.
So basically it was a live stream, and they would
literally live stream a bunch of
rocks, like literal pebbles
just sitting there.
And they would bet on which one would complete
the finish line.
But the catch is, they are
fucking rocks! They're not going anywhere!
So they literally just watched endless hours of rocks just sitting there, doing nothing,
betting on which one will finish first, not realizing that rocks can't fucking move.
Bro, I got an idea for a YouTube channel,
a grass-growing challenge.
Oh, God.
Just to see how fast the grass goes.
No, no, no, no.
I have a better one.
We're going to create a YouTube channel
where we watch paint dry.
It's going to be so boring. We can watch the paint dry. It's going to be so boring.
We can watch the paint dry.
It's like, hey, man, it really is that boring.
Let's go fucking look up the paint dry YouTube channel.
Hold on, hold on.
But this is how we do it.
People will have to place bets and timestamp
when the paint actually was dry.
And there has to be a scientific method for determining it.
But yeah, you gotta watch the stream and be like,
okay, right now I believe it's dry.
Place your bet.
Amazing.
Well, like saying, how long do you think it's going to take until it's dry?
You know, like you have the whole, you have everything,
you have the temperature, the draft in the room, you know?
What is the paint?
Like, what's the paint base?
Is it water base? You know, like, what is the paint like what's the paint base is it water based you
know like what is it you gotta do it's quantum it out yeah we gotta get the scientific commentators
for the different types of paints different brands yes explaining why one will be sooner than the
later exact oh dude actually there might be economies of this be like hey this one polymer
rises a lot now it actually has led to a lot of misunderstandings.
People thought it was dry, but it actually wasn't dry the whole time.
There was a massive scandal about this.
It was really bad.
Oh yeah, you mean the one that hardens?
Yeah, I do mean the one that hardens.
It was absolutely insane.
You're like literal sports commentators, are they always sound?
Yep.
Have you heard of chicken shit bingo?
I don't...
Okay, let me guess.
It's a chicken on top of a, like,
a net thing that takes a shit
on a bingo card.
Is that what this is?
And people camp on it.
Yeah, that's exactly...
Wow.
I love the fact that I just deconstructed that.
Bruh.
It's just straightforward.
It's in a cage that has
a wire bottom,
and it's been a thing
for a real long time.
I mean, it's better than cockfights.
I mean, it's better than
cockfights. It's also less confusing.
It's also less confusing.
Now you have to clarify
which type of cockfights
you're talking about.
I don't know, man. I'm not gay. Does that help?
That's the confusing part.
Am I seasoned, though? I don't know.
Same problem. See?
You just said you were. didn't you season yourself?
I breathed in the essential oils that come off of seasoning, so temporarily, yes.
You're internally seasoned.
Yes.
AGI, but, like, seasoning has been achieved internally.
Mission accomplished.
Seasoning has been achieved internally.
That's good.
Nobody understands that though.
It's like...
It just sits there. nobody understands that though it's like
it just sits there okay we cool I love this it's great well this is funny man but uh i gotta jump adrian blaze everyone is good to see you guys yeah we gotta have more of these non-political and just fun conversations yes we're definitely
gonna need that because where we're going it's gonna be one hell of a ride oh yeah by the way
yeah for all the listeners you guys gotta repost the space. Thanks.
Quote post it.
Yeah.
Now I wonder
if ever I'm gonna make a post
that's so banger that somebody quote posts it
and just goes instantly viral based on whatever
antagonistic shit they come up with.
That would be so funny.
The only
problem is in order to do that, you have to
either A, be bland, or B, be
racist. I can't be either of those
things, so that kind of seals the deal.
That's how engagement works on the platform.
I got
ratio today for the first time.
For real. Yeah, the flooding that was going on uh down here um i was like trying to reach out people see like how he could get involved and help and and
like one dude was just like you're not supposed to be doing that the governor said don't do that
supposed to be doing that. The governor
said don't do that.
He got like
five times as many likes as me. I'm like
he's retarded.
Really?
That is horrible.
Wow.
Was he a big account?
No, no.
I mean he was right.
Like, just the whole region responded,
and there were literally too many first responders
that they had to, like, send people home
because they were getting in the way.
Interesting.
That's good, right?
I mean, kind of, yeah.
So basically, I think the question that we need to be asking ourselves is,
JP, why were you being a retard?
I mean, you know me.
I can't turn it off.
That's true.
That's not an answer.
That's acceptable.
What the fuck?
Why are you retarded? Some things just are.
I just posted on my alt.
Check it.
Look, everybody's online.
Hmm.
Oh yeah, I see it.
JP, remember what Auta said?
Never go full retard.
You always go full retard.
That's what we learned about the whole smooth brain thing.
No, no, no. See, we never went full retard. We's what we learned about the whole smooth brain thing. I don't know.
See, we never went full retard.
We just went TSMC maxing.
We convinced them that we were the floating orbs above New Jersey.
But the fun part was that there was never any orbs.
They were just drones.
I told everybody it was just drones.
I said that law enforcement was going to come out and say it's just drones.
Which is exactly what they did.
Because they said, oh wow, these things are not adversarial.
I'm like, okay, so it's
basically just the government doing it. Okay, case
accepted. Everybody's like, well, you have
to clarify. I'm like,
no, they don't have to clarify
anything, because they just did. It's just
you who doesn't know how to speak
the fucking language that you're born
with. English, motherfucker!
How is it that my first language
is fucking German, and I can speak
English better than 90%
of the people on this planet?
What the fuck?
Genuine question!
Blows my mind!
Sorry, LawyerCat, what did you want to say?
Oh, I was just making a stupid joke.
You can, in fact, just drone things.
Wild.
Right, yeah.
I mean, they were flying in these weird, like, coordinated patterns.
I'm like, see, I've seen the UFO videos and shit.
I'm like, even if those things were real, that's not what that is.
Like, does it make the sharp 90, that's not what that is. Like,
does it make the sharp 90 degree turn?
Like, nope.
Doesn't do that. It's drones.
It does the thing where it just does the
round, slow
edge thing, you know?
Like how planes descend and ascend
sometimes. It does the spiral.
I'm like, that is a man-made
craft, ladies and gentlemen.
And do you guys know that you live in this place
that's called the United States of America
with a lot of interesting technology?
Do you seriously think, do you seriously
think that they don't
know what that is?
Like, this is the thing that
bothered me since the beginning of it. I was like
just sitting there and they're like, oh, we don't know what it is. We don the beginning of it. I was, like, just sitting there, and they're like,
Oh, we don't know what it is, we don't know what it is.
I'm like, no, no, definitely somebody knows what it is,
and I don't think you guys need to worry about it.
That was literally my thing.
I was like, don't worry about it.
Same thing with the fucking asteroid.
I literally said, hey, you know what they're probably gonna do with the asteroid?
They're probably just gonna, like, they're just gonna ARG this
and bump down the percentages until it just
like becomes a no-name thing. And that's exactly what fucking happened. Called it.
Not worried about it. Because that same shit happened back in like the COVID time,
where there was a mass convergence event. Does anybody remember the convergence event?
It's not even a fucking thing
anyone wrote anything about. There was this time
where basically a shit ton of fucking asteroids
all passed by Earth
real fucking close in that
period of time.
And a whole bunch of people
schizoed about it and then forgot.
Like, I saw the fucking render
and I was like, damn, that that's interesting I didn't even hear
about it probably a good thing
probably that's probably someone was
receiving their request because everybody keeps
saying send the asteroid the aliens are like
which ones here
here just take
just give them a handful.
Here's your asteroid. Now why do you keep asking for asteroids?
Ask for the cancer cure.
Like, come on.
Don't ask for more problems.
What's wrong with you?
It was just crossed wires.
The video game asteroids came out.
Some signals went out.
It was a whole thing.
It'll sort itself out eventually, I'm sure.
Yeah, yeah, don't worry about it. Although, you may
want to check in with Alpha Centauri.
They're going to be watching Hitler's speeches right about now.
I'm not sure.
Yeah, but
that's going to be going on for quite a while.
Do you think they know what the Kanye song is?
They're going to have to hear that one way in the future.
Yeah.
Dude, yeah.
I still can't believe that the world's most prolific Nazi is a fucking black guy.
But that's an interesting occurrence, really.
It really is.
I think we live in a very fascinating timeline in which something like that is actually possible.
Like, who would have thought?
I don't think I could have ever predicted this.
Did you hear about the MMA fight
that's going to happen at the White House?
Oh, yes, I did.
Remember when I said that
the road posting was going to resume soon?
So that's happening.
I heard that one
I heard one of the fighters is gonna use that song as a walkout song
what song
oh that oh my god
there's no fucking way man
there's no way that's happening
I'm gonna will it into existence
it's not gonna happen
you're a stalks guy you're a stalks guy into existence. It's not going to happen.
You're a stalks guy.
You're a stalks guy.
You of all people should understand that nothing ever happens.
I mean,
sometimes something happens
and what happens, it happens really quickly.
Fair enough.
I don't think that will happen, though.
But it'd be funny if it did To some people yes
To others not so much
Including the officials and everybody else
Else on the world
Imagine how mad
People would get though
Oh man dude it would start off
A whole thing, man.
That's a canon event
right there, bro.
Trump's just doing his Trump dance in the corner.
No, man.
Does he do it rhythmically
with the beats too?
I mean, I would hope so.
Is there a Trump dance?
I'm just picturing the Super Bowl shuffle.
That's all I'm getting.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A little hand dance thing.
There's another type of shuffle from the movie.
I forgot the exact naming of it
but you know
it's basically a really really
next level thick dude who
wiggles himself
like really fast
which is not what you think
it is when I say it the way I do
the truffle shuffle yes The truffle shuffle?
Yes, the truffle shuffle.
That's the one.
I think that's what it is, yeah.
You know, with the fat kid.
I think that's from the Goonies,
but I don't think I've ever seen the Goonies.
Yes.
I just know's from the Goonies, but I don't think I've ever seen the Goonies. I just know it from...
I think it was Peter Griffin telling some fat kid to do the truffle shuffle.
And the kid being very upset about it.
No, I don't want to do the truffle shuffle.
That reminds me of The Obser observers from Rick and Morty.
That was one hell of an episode.
Shit on the floor? Come on and get
schwifty. Not those observers,
but yeah, sure. That was
also a good one.
Shit on the floor like
like imagine if somebody in a real life legitimately sings that shit to aliens amazing
we like it goodbye well good thing that worked
your planet will not be nuked anymore
someone tell Ice-T he can come back
oh yeah
but he turned himself into
water tea after that one
which makes no sense
and they fight those things.
It's the alphabet people
versus the number people.
Yes, that's a thing.
And the number people
are called the numericons.
Fuck.
Funny little species.
That's universe building right there
and they're also all numbers
the americans are all numbers
the alphabet are all alphabets
are the children lowercase
i'm not sure, maybe.
That would have been a nice touch.
That it would.
That it would.
But how do they transform it to uppercase?
Puberty.
And it hits like a truck.
Fair enough.
Fair enough.
But there are some questions that remain unanswered, though.
Like what Biden was asking.
What about the mom and dad?
You know?
What about them, though?
I can't remember that.
What about the mom and dad?
This one was so funny.
I will say, as much as damage he did,
I don't think I could ever be mad at President Biden.
He was funny.
Even though it was fucked up.
Because it just puppeted him around.
But he did do things.
I still remember seeing his campaign thing.
Before he got elected.
And I thought he was never going to get elected.
And then he did.
Which really surprised me.
Literally the only reason why I became aware of him.
Was him talking about his hairy fucking legs.
That's my introduction to American politics.
Yeah. I had the internet. That's my introduction to American politics. Yeah.
I had the internet.
It's like, who's this guy?
Why is he talking about his hairy legs?
And why is everybody listening to him?
What's going on here?
And then I did some research.
And that's how it began.
I wanted to understand why everybody had these problems and these positions.
I was like, hey, this is interesting.
This is like a chess game, but it's like opinions and emotions.
Interesting.
I don't understand any of those things, but I want to.
Well, my thing with politics is I got interested for like three years,
and then I noticed it just kind of repeats and nothing new happens.
Then I got bored.
Nothing ever happens.
Yeah, it's neat for like a little bit
and then you're like, eh.
It just doesn't work anymore.
Just reruns.
I mean, they did bring in
a reality TV show host,
but it didn't really boost the ratings on my end.
What was it?
Oh, man.
It's the second time that somebody in TV was put into the White House.
Remember the first one was Reagan?
Oh, yeah, the White House. Remember the first one was Reagan? Oh yeah, the
gipper. And still to this
day, you can test a person's literacy
on economy by whether
or not they like Reagan.
Because whenever they speak about Reagan, they speak
about his jokes, so his marketing is excellent.
But if they looked at his policies, they'd realize he was
a horrible fucking president.
That's a very
controversial opinion.
But it's very true.
The money's got to trickle down from my pocket to wherever I spend it.
Exactly.
I mean...
Yeah.
He sold it good.
He did.
That's the thing.
It worked great for his donors.
It really did.. He did. That's the thing. It worked great for his donors. It really did.
It really did.
But was he a good president, though?
He did say Gorbachev
tore down this wall,
and then somebody else
tore down the wall.
You guys remember
the fancy letter? Does anybody
know about the letter that tore down the wall?
I don't.
Guys don't know about the letter?
No, sir.
It's a really interesting thing. You probably
should know when there was like a massive
fucking wall separating two countries that was
like untouchable, that a single letter led to its collapse.
One letter.
And nobody knows where it came from.
It was the letter F.
No, a fucking letter.
It was given to one of the officials in the middle of a fucking press conference, mind you.
He read that shit and effectively, in a legal sense,
declared that the wall was no more.
Which then confused the fuck out of everybody.
Even the guy who was reading it.
Which then led to people to go,
well, he said the wall's fucked, everybody go to the wall.
And then everybody went to the wall.
And they demanded that the gates be opened,
because there was no more wall. And then everybody went to the wall. And they demanded that the gates be opened, because there was no more wall.
And then eventually,
the guards on the other side,
they had compassion.
And the first guy
opened the gate. And that
began the fall of the wall.
The fall of the wall, right? Because then
everybody just, like, went through.
And everybody stopped shooting everybody.
Whenever somebody tried to go over the fucking wall.
And then big guys came with their fucking machines.
And tried tearing that shit down.
Because they had to see this worthless piece of shit.
Every day of their lives.
Wanting to demolish it.
It all started with one letter.
Isn't that something?
I think that's a lot more fucking impressive
than a guy who's an actor saying,
tear down this wall.
Because, here, I'm not going to say shit.
You're going to say it.
Isn't that fucking cool?
What did the letters say?
I can pull it up. Hang on a minute.
It's all in German, by the way.
Where is that fucking thing?
It's very difficult to find because nobody really talks about it,
so there's very little engagement, and the AI is just like,
hey...
Mmm, no, that's not the right event, that's bullshit.
Hmm, no, that's not the right event, that's bullshit.
No, no, that's not the one either.
Man, all these historical records are complete garbage.
What the fuck is this?
Man, this is complete bullshit.
All of this is wrong.
In Soviet Russia, records record you.
That's a good one.
That's crazy. That's a good one. That's crazy.
That's a good one.
That's true, though.
Man, where is the record of this?
What the fuck?
Man.
It's not even recorded recorded what the fuck is this
I like read the thing
that's funny I can't find the fucking image.
Which I hate it when that happens.
Man, they are literally erasing history.
This is Google, what the fuck are you doing?
You meddling little pieces of shit.
What the fuck is this nonsense this is bad
this is actually bad
because this is a very critical piece of history
I I'm giving it a go too.
See if my Googling skills can find anything. Hmm.
Damn.
It's called the Stalin note.
What?
The Stalin note.
Stalin, like Joseph Stalin.
No, it's not.
Oh, he had an arm retarded.
I thought we already established that.
I just have to remind myself sometimes.
Jesus Christ, my man.
The man?
It's that I still remember the clip in my head.
Because it's like where the dude read the thing and said, yeah, like
open the wall without
like that the wall is going to be opened
because it was actually kind of an accident
and that they like wanted to say, it has to be done
like, at least they said it was supposed to
like it's kind of an accident because they wanted to open
the wall slowly over time
but then it ended up with just being
oh, immediately, without delay
so it's like, boom
everybody then said, I?
cool, let's go tear it down
crazy one
all I can find is
temporary transitional
regulation for travel and permanent
emigration from the GDR.
Which doesn't sound right.
No, that's not the one.
I think that's probably even
like wall regulation
as well, where people were allowed to
travel, but they were not allowed to, like, travel,
but they were not allowed to, uh,
you know,
yeah.
There was major restriction on travel, because with socialism, which is,
by the way, let nobody fool you
into this, it is a fascist ideology,
it is a horrible fascist ideology,
it really is, right? Don't let anybody
tell you any different, and I won't let
them, because I won't let them,
because I know the history very, very well. It is a fascist ideology. And part of that was very
interesting, because when you are trying, well, let's say you have a border around your country.
If a country is good, then many people would want to come into it, right? Because they're trying to
escape from wherever they are at
and go to a place that's better.
Like with what's happening with Mexico.
A lot of them want to jump over the...
Like anybody who can swim, jump, or run, you know, just go over, right?
So then, you know, you're guarding the border
against something coming in to your country, right?
In East Germany was actually the other way around.
All of the countermeasures to keep people from scaling the wall were not directed at the outside.
They were directed inwards.
Like an actual prison.
And it was an actual prison, because guess what?
If you wanted to escape this fascist organization,
you had to cross the wall in some way,
either underground, or you got lucky and ran across,
which, by the way, that's not going to happen,
because there's a fucking minefield,
and there's a bunch of snipers that would take you out if you tried!
And because it's a relatively small place that was around it,
because they kept that one controlled as well, in case people were trying to, you know, escape.
A lot of those people knew the guards.
So it was very tough for them to shoot the people trying to cross.
So, that was a thing.
Man, isn't communism shiny yeah
there's a huge uprising that by the way
the kids are not okay
let's just go with that
they need to know their history the kids are not okay. They are not. Let's just go with that. Mm-hmm.
They need to know their history,
but they don't.
I debated one of those communist sympathizer pieces of shit, and
I was friendly about it, but I did say
it was fascist, and they just literally
didn't even argue it. They were like,
you should inform yourself
more about how it's not actually fascist and just
dipped. I'm like, well
that was a fight.
I think your mental
illness might have been touched there.
That's why.
Bye.
Like don't elaborate
how you, like don't elaborate how you're wrong.
You just leave. I'm like, okay.
Understandable.
Like, they asked me a whole bunch of questions.
I answered all of them.
Yeah, but what about the reports?
I'm like, which reports exactly?
The ones that were...
Like, which reports?
The ones that were kept away from the public eye?
Because I can get you those, and I can show them to you.
Or do you mean the ones that were
transmitted everywhere? You mean the propaganda?
You know?
Like, do you trust your government? Really?
How about this? Did you guys like
the British Imperium? Because you could look at the propaganda
and go with it was the best thing ever.
And it really was a good thing, but it did have a lot of flaws.
Or you could look at something else. It would take, like, the worst thing you've ever seen and take its propaganda and go with it was the best thing ever. And it really was a good thing, but it did have a lot of flaws. Or you could look at something else, it would take like the worst thing you've ever seen
and take its propaganda and be like,
well, it looked like such a utopia, until
you realize that each and every single one of those fucking people
in the videos were all actors,
and the place which was constructed
was all fake. And then those
guys would be sent back to their chevelled-ass
fucking homes. And the uniforms,
which the actors wore, which looked like good clothes, would be taken from them.
So, okay, you know?
You could just say, okay, we based our reality on fucking literal bullshit.
A fucking movie.
Or, you go and say, hmm, what did the people do at the time?
It's like looking at North Korea and going, wow, army nice, strong, unified, cool, must be a good place to live.
And not understanding that half the
fucking country's a slum.
Oh, and that there's a big hotel at the center
of the fucking city
that they denied existed
because they built it,
ran out of fucking money,
then basically
denied it ever existed, even though
this big fucking concrete thing was there the
whole time erased it from all of their like travel pictures right even though it was right there and
then later covered it in glass and made an advertisement out of it so they can put the
propaganda on there so now this thing sits there, covered in glass, completely fucking useless, and is a massive advertising screen.
But I thought it was never there.
So first it was there, then it wasn't, and now it is again.
Even though it wasn't, but it is, and it was, and it now is again.
That's called fascism. It's retarded. Maybe we shouldn't go back there.
That's not even long ago. That's literally recent. That happened within the last 10 years.
Do you see how, like,
a lot of stupid shit comes out of that?
Do you, like, notice how stupid that is, what I just said?
That is pretty dumb, isn't it?
Yeah, but I just kind of expect
the humans to do dumb things.
They tend to do dumb things.
They tend to do that.
Real.
But leadership is supposed to be the exception.
That's why they're exceptional.
Right?
I mean, in theory.
In practice... In practice, the midwits do the thing that the midwits always do.
Maximize midwittery.
Actually, that's not even really it.
What if you took midwittism and bent it spectacularly?
Then you're called a magician.
Then you're called a magician.
But all you are is peak midwit.
But all you are is peak midwit.
And you're paid by the oil companies.
Just kidding.
By the way, I don't have a problem with the oil companies, by the way.
I'm not one of those people.
I kind of like the oil.
Hey, what runs all those amazing machines that build my infrastructure?
Oil, right?
What lubricates everything? Oil.
Dude, my funniest thing was, um, looking into how
windmills, fuck's sake, windmills!
Oh, wow! That is a nice one. I really Windmills. Mindmills. Fuck's sake. Windmills. Calm. Wow.
That is a nice one.
I really blundered that one.
That's perfect.
Windmills.
Those are funny because they cost a ton, are completely fucking useless in many respects,
especially when the wind is a little too much.
And, you know, it does require a lot of oil to lubricate it, right?
There's this famous clip that goes around.
It's like, hey, you know, it takes a ton of oil to lubricate the thing, blah, blah, whatever else.
And that's all fucking true.
But the best part is that whole thing has to be decommissioned again, has to be taken out of the fucking ground.
The blades, by the way, are manufactured in such a way that they can't be recycled.
So they literally bury them.
Gentlemen,
don't do windmills.
Have you seen one on fire? Yes, I have. That
happens too. Oh, and if they spin too fast
when the wind is too high, they explode.
Yeah, fun times, eh?
And they don't even produce flour.
Like, what the fuck? That was the original windmills.
Make flour great again.
They have a bunch of them.
They mill and shit.
And it's funny, because, like,
at least half of them are always off
because there's something wrong with them
and they can't maintain them.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, if people seriously...
If industry seriously thought that that was the future, they have a ton of them.
But they don't.
Because it's bullshit.
I mean, there's quite a few along I-90.
What?
Like, there's quite a few, like, all the way Montana, Wyoming, North
Dakota, through
pretty much the entire
thing is just covered with them because it's just
flat land. They should put
solar cells there instead. It'd be actually useful.
It's not a high solar zone. It's only
like two, I think.
Fair enough.
It makes sense
if you're trying to
produce power locally
and not trying to deal
transmissions out in the middle
of nowhere where you don't
have a lot of sun.
Yeah.
Solar's better.
Solar's better.
The wind there
is just super consistent.
There's nothing to
stop it.
They're building massive
solar farms in Virginia and stuff
right now, which is one of the
lower solar zones.
I think...
I love that the place where the CIA has its
headquarters has the most solar.
See?
They should be doing it
out in the desert. That's where it makes sense.
Technically.
Yeah.
With the desert,
you have maintenance problems. I've With a desert, with a desert you have maintenance problems.
I've been to deserts.
Maintenance problem is
a fuckload of dust.
It's the same thing you're gonna have to know with...
Fuck! The same thing you're gonna have to
realize when it comes to, um...
When it comes to Mars.
Sorry, I'm eating steak right now
On Mars, you have a ton of dust everywhere
So when it gets on your solar cells, obviously
Your efficiency goes to shit
So you just have to get the dust off of them
We're talking probably
Pesterized air, liquid something, whatever have you
But if you're in the desert, it becomes very challenging
Couldn't they just, like, put a static field on it?
Maybe couldn't they just like put a static field on it maybe you know how like they do with ships
to keep the ships from getting rusty
that the electrodes
kind of like that but kind of not like that
because that doesn't make any sense what you just said
I mean you still like that. Because that doesn't make any sense, what you just said.
I mean,
you still, like,
no, no.
Rusting and, like,
just literal dust on it does not,
like, no.
No, no, but the same concept where, like, they
positively charge a little, like, I guess it's a zinc plate on some of the bigger ships so that the holes won't rust.
I don't exactly understand why.
Dude, that's why it doesn't work. Don't worry about it. None of what you say is about it makes sense. It doesn't work. It doesn't work like that.
like that.
It has to do with
ionization and the actual
construction of what you try
to repel.
Yes.
Or you really need
some sort of shield.
Well,
I would think
magnet shields, but
Silica don't give a shit about no magnets, man.
That's the problem with sand.
It doesn't... It's just sil sand. It doesn't...
It's just silica.
It's just...
The best thing you can do...
What are you going to do with it?
Build... What are you going to do with it?
Build houses? Make chips?
How are you going to act?
It's desert sand. You can't even do that.
It's too smooth.
Yeah, I know that. I was in a desert where we wanted to build some shit and they told us it's not going to work. I was like, why? Because your shit's desert sand. You can't even do that. It's too smooth. Yeah, I know that. I was in a desert where we wanted to build some shit
and they told us it's not going to work. I was like, why?
Because your shit's too round. I'm like, wow, I never thought of that.
I was thinking
you could just shoot lasers at it and make it rough
if you wanted to get tricky.
And then you could turn desert sand into buildable sand.
Or you could probably use just like
diamond dust and shake it up a bunch.
Mm-hmm.
Basically, what Vera's proposing is
a Halo Covenant ship
glass to the surface.
Ooh.
Hey, that will work.
Covenant ship, like a little orbital
bombardment just to, you know, make the
glass course again.
Fuck.
That's how it's so metal.
It's kind of like the most metal thing I've ever seen.
Hey, Transformers, we need construction material for our robots.
Okay.
We need a Transformer metal.
How do we get it?
When we go down to this place and we turn all the biological life form into metal. Okay. We need a transformer metal. How do we get it? Well, we go down to this place, and we turn all the biological life form into metal.
Okay.
That's called the dinosaur extinction.
Oh my god.
And they came down there, throw those seeds, and destroy the whole fucking planet surface.
That was baller, bro.
Oh, man, this is spicy. Man, this is spicy.
I made this extra spicy.
Now you made me want something spicy.
It's gonna hurt coming in.
It's gonna hurt coming out.
Digestive skill issue.
Maybe.
Are you roasting me, motherfucker?
A little bit.
Fair enough?
What the fuck?
Mmm.
I don't know.
Like I said, I can eat
literally anything and not have a problem
how about that
I guess that's just what happens when you grow up on
high octane garbage your system adapts
yeah up on high-octane garbage, your system adapts.
Yeah.
And now my liver is probably 20% plastic, and we'll see how
that works for me going down
the line.
Microplastics?
Why? What's wrong with them?
I'm made of them.
Yeah, what do you think's keeping
my liver running?
Tricks to get them seed oils
and activates the organ-regenerating powers.
What the fuck, Rudder?
That's good.
Now,
if we wanted to take out all the skits on
conspiracy theorists,
we'll engineer that into their whole thing.
And then they're all going to end up fat and full of microplastics.
That's the thing.
This is what I do whenever I'm led with a conspiracy theory.
I try and make it more ridiculous
and fold it in on itself
as best as I can.
No. What'd you have to do? That's actually
good because you can turn it into something else.
What do you do is this, right?
You have a conspiracy theorist tell you
the theory and then just make it worse
and tell it back to them. And if they don't believe it,
you call them a nutcase.
Yeah.
That's the game. It's a real fun game.
I don't believe we landed on the moon. I'm like,
you believe the moon is real?
Bro. Bro.
Bro.
It's not real. It's an egg.
Okay? First of all,
you're crazy.
How do you not know this?
Next thing you're gonna tell me you don't believe in donut theory.
Like, what's donut theory? Earth is obviously a donut.
There you go. That's how you handle problems.
Try it out. It's pretty fun.
If you want to sell it a little bit better
a trick I found is to say
oh no, that's just the conspiracy
that they want you to think
before you go into your thing
oh yeah, yeah 100%
I am the misinformed one, let me explain
I just state that before you do it, and then it'd be like
somewhat confused, but it's like you're actually telling
the truth.
Like, you just
like you did the disclosure thing.
You do play by the rules.
Like, you literally just disclose a lie and then lie anyways.
Because that's the truth.
As long as
you confidently continue
like 99
times out of 100 nobody's gonna stop you
exactly yeah
like hey this next thing is total bullshit but look
listen to me listen to me listen to me I want you to understand
I think that the moon is made
out of a mirror okay I don't
think it's round I actually think it is
flat shaped
okay but it's like thick it's really thick, flat thing that is also round, but only at the edges.
And it's also a circle with rounded edges, okay?
If you don't believe that, you're not informed.
Like that.
The math is right there.
Yeah, the math is right there.
Exactly.
So now, I'm pretty sure that by the
time I got to the end of what I just did,
you guys forgot the fact that I literally
said that what I'm about to say is complete bullshit.
Vera's execution.
It's a lot of fun.
It really is.
I highly recommend it.
Yeah.
Hey, that's ridiculous.
What do you even believe that?
Let me tell you something really crazy,
okay?
If you think
that's ridiculous, wait until you hear this.
Exactly, yeah, exactly, yeah.
Like, what's
next? Tomorrow?
Believe it when I see it, but so far as I've lived,
I've never lived in a tomorrow.
The entire time I've been alive, it's never happened.
Yeah, I don't recognize sunsets or sunrises.
All I know is Mom's attic.
Like, what? You have an attic?
Mine was garage.
I'm like, you do garages and attics.
Mine's the basement.
I'm like, you guys have basements?
The sun doesn't set. It just fears me.
Fuck.
Here, I want to play some Halo later yeah I'm game
yeah I'll play yeah sure
who else
I need a third guy
I need a third guy
I still don't have my PC
where I'm at
alternate what about you I still don't have my PC where I'm at. Fuck.
Alternate, what about you?
I take that as a yes.
I'm like constantly testing this guy's cognitive security by trying to get him to speak.
Ironically enough, this guy, he's going gonna end up with the best of it, because
he has to do the same thing that I did for character development.
Except he's getting, uh,
he's getting a little faster, which is
great. He just, like, accidentally found
me one day, and I told him, hey, you can be a
transparent dumbbell, and he's like, what if I was
you? And I'm like, okay.
I like that your two
profile pictures
look like two twin brothers
who are meeting each other on a sandy beach.
They haven't seen each other in forever.
It's you!
Or it's like we have the person
who's in the center of it and there's two of them
like this with a co-host.
Blas is about to be an Adrian sandwich.
Exactly.
The Adrian sandwich.
Amazing.
Screenshot the space and go Adrian sandwich.
Just be like Adrian and sandwich.
Just Adrian sandwich. Everybody posts Adrian sandwichwich. Just be like Adrian and Sandwich. Just Adrian Sandwich.
Everybody posts Adrian Sandwich.
That'd be so funny.
I mean,
don't even include a picture. Just no context.
Adrian Sandwich.
Let them figure it out. The fuck's going on?
Yeah.
Like, you do the Google search.
I want to see how well you really want to have the truth.
And you're going to realize there is a truth,
and you'll be like, well, I don't believe that.
Because you want something more spectacular.
And sometimes it really isn't that spectacular.
It could just literally be that you forgot to turn the engine on.
I love it when the solution is something simple
and like people had fantasmical theories for it it was just like oh it's cars
like the yeah one of those lights in texas like the sand just reflects the lights of the cars from the highway. That's what happens.
It's a mirage.
Ta-da!
Oh my god, it's floating!
Well, it's actually not. It's a reflection.
How does that work? It doesn't.
Drink some water. I'll explain later.
Which, by the way, if you want to have a real fun time, try explaining light refraction to a flat earther. It's a lot of fun.
Really? Why is that? Because the existence of that really upsets a lot of their math.
really?
Really? Interesting. I never thought about that. I don't debate enough of them to know that.
interesting, I never thought about that
I don't debate enough of them to know that
yes, and also they will show you all sorts of pictures
where you can clearly see the stages of refraction
like you'll see different shades of ocean
as it's different layers of light
coming across the horizon
it's very clear
there's just this line here
do you think that's a wave?
why do you think it doesn't move?
why do you think it's always there?
because that's how light works Why do you think it doesn't move? Why do you think it's always there? Because that's how light works
over her horizon and over water.
It bends the light.
Real.
I would just like to find one.
If you really want to end it quick,
you can just be like,
okay, why can't I see Mount Everest?
And that's usually just...
No, they go like, well, the haze.
That's it.
Yeah, you can only see this far.
Then how can I see the stars?
Well, the stars are just painted on the ceiling this far away.
And you're just like, you lost me.
That one actually kind of makes sense, where it's like,
hey, well, if I'm standing next to Mount Everest, it's like, can I see Mount Everest? Well, that one makes sense, where it's like, hey, well, if I'm standing next to Mount Everest,
it's like, can I see Mount Everest? Well, that one makes sense, because it'd be like, okay, if the haze is there,
then the density of the haze... Like, that's how I explain it, actually. When I was a kid,
I looked at the world, and I was like, right, so this looks like flat, but why can't I see all the other countries?
Ah! Haze! That's it.
And I fucking literally came to that shit
came to my parents with that shit and they said like
no man the fucking globe is round
let me show you
like I said I could justify
anything to myself if I wanted to
because I could just like do things right
and it's a pretty logical thing
isn't it just to say that density of haze
you know depth of field
that's perfect for me Pretty logical thing, isn't it? Just to say that. Density of haze. You know? Depth of field.
That's perfect.
I mean... It is.
Until planes...
Like...
Exactly.
Then they have to be like,
now planes lie about how high they fly.
And then you're like,
there's a lot of people in on this.
At this point,
we're well beyond anything people could cover up if they couldn't cover up Watergate.
Yeah.
They lie to you about how high they fly.
I'm like, oh, really?
So do they fly lower?
It's like, okay, cool.
They fly lower.
All right.
So you know how air pressure works, right?
Because if they were to fly lower, then they would be
at this place over here, which means you would have the ability
to breathe. Do you want to check
that out while we're flying at the
non-existent height thing? Very much.
Because you're gonna
die. Stick your head out,
it'll be fine. Yeah, you're totally
not gonna blow up or something, or freeze over
and just suffocate.
Because that's what happens at that height.
Which, by the way, is exactly what's going to happen to you.
But like, oh, right.
But I can't check that out because they're always
keeping the cape. They don't want me figuring that out
because they keep the plane sealed. I'm like,
well, because if they unseal the plane,
you'll be sucked out because the
pressure inside the plane is higher than outside.
Because, you know, that's how you work.
I also find it really enjoyable watching Flat Earther videos where they send cameras up with weather balloons,
and then they just come up with excuses for what they're seeing.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
They'll be like, well, that's just lens refraction
or it's this or it's that.
And it's like, I don't even know.
Another good one is their light tests
where they don't use red lasers.
They use blue and green.
And then I have to explain how the different light effects affect how the light refracts.
Different light refracts at different rates, that's why you can't do it with a red laser, but you can do it with blue or green.
Wow.
I assume that has something to do with their choice as well, huh?
Yep.
I mean, to them, it's just like, no, this one's easier to see.
But to me, I'm like, okay, you see how when they move it around, it's a big fuck-off dot?
Instead of the little dot that it's supposed to be?
That's your symbol.
That's your signal right there
that you've had some light refraction happen.
It doesn't happen nearly the same with the red one.
It moves faster.
Real.
Is it slower? I forget.
Yes. So it's lower frequencies. It's less affected by refraction. Is it slower? I forget. Uh, yes.
So it's lower frequencies.
Less effective by refraction.
So it's slower, not faster.
Yeah.
Huh.
I literally just turned into
Jorogan going, wow, the thing that was incorrect.
Fuck.
Like, by the way, I can walk was incorrect. Fuck.
Like, by the way,
I can walk through walls.
Jogan goes, wow.
He needs to do more stand-up and less podcasting.
Yeah. Like, you can walk
through walls, really. Can you teach me how to do
that? Preferably with the eyes open,
because I'm not going to run into a wall,
but you are.
Sounds like a really elaborate prank.
Just convince somebody really hard
that they can run through a wall,
and then just watch them just fucking go full bore.
I think that actually happened a bunch i actually did that once um kind of all right let me explain so i i um i figured out so like phones used to be really fast with their like camera they're like
you can pause on pause right and so what i used to do is i used to do like this, I'd record a video of me running up to a door, like really full fucking speed,
and then lightly hit the phone against the glass, hit pause at the exact moment that that happens,
then go inside behind the door, close the door behind me, and then just kind of shake and turn it on again,
and it looked like I'd run through the door.
like I'd run through the door. I actually did that so well that it looked very convincing.
I actually did that so well that it looked very convincing.
I even did the falling through the roof thing once where it's like okay I'm gonna fall through
the roof like that and then through the thing and onto something on the ground.
Right so you just do the perfect cut and then resume at the exact time and just do a little
bit of sound and it works perfectly. And I didn't even have to edit it or anything.
It was really convincing.
And I think this one time somebody watched something like that
and just decided to go fucking...
You know.
When mind-freaking
goes wrong.
Yes.
Like, wow, I can do that?
Boom! No!
He didn't even think hard enough to figure out what the hell he's about to do, you know?
I did a lot of those videos, and one guy was super confused, like, how the fuck did you do that? I'm like, well, magic.
What do you mean? You haven't unlocked the full potential of your pineal gland, dude?
You gotta go in yourself.
And you have to know yourself.
And you have to know that you can go through the door.
Like lesbians.
Exactly. Yes. like lesbians exactly
you gotta think outside the box
on that one
they tend to do the thinking
on the inside more than the outside
I have a feeling.
That's why law enforcement usually
has to get involved.
Yeah.
Those statistics be wild.
Not gonna lie.
Hey, I'm not gonna talk about crime rate statistics.
I'm gonna talk about domestic abuse
amongst the people.
Yeah.
That's just high. I'm like, why is
that? Is it that, like, what
is that? Why does that happen?
I don't understand that.
Is it that if two females are around each other long
enough in their relationship that they turn into masochists
and one of which actually wins out because they're the most
violent? I don't understand it.
Not masochist, the other one.
Which...
Fuck, I forgot it, I don't care.
Sadist?
Something like that, yeah.
It's not what I was looking for, but it's close.
It'll do.
As they say.
Dominatrix?
Maybe.
But also not what it was like before either.
Something worse.
Although the dominatrix is the reason why the...
You know...
I'm not gonna finish that sentence.
Sorry.
Sometimes I come up with things that if I said them, it would cause a lot of problems.
The dominatrix missions are usually my favorite in the yakuza games
that's a thing yeah you have to help teach dominatrixes how to dominate
i think that's in two different games
one of them involves like a baby sex club that's weird
that is horrifying One of them involves like a baby sex club. That's weird.
That is horrifying.
Have you never played the Yakuza games?
I'd highly recommend.
They're very interesting and a lot of fun.
Yeah.
Alright.
You can have a chicken be your building manager.
That's a thing.
A chicken?
Yes.
Oh, hey, I have a problem.
Let me call the manager. Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop. B problem. Let me call the manager.
I'm like, oh my god, he was such a dick.
I'm like, no, that's the manager.
It's actually a cock, you see?
And cock or not, he still fixed your pipes i don't know how but he did oh yes
holy shit
that was good i love how this show is kind of like devolved into like dad jokes and whatnot it's like
this is what happens when a whole bunch of people sit in a room.
It's like doing this.
Wow.
Cock or nutty fixture pipes.
It's nice to turn off the brain every now and then.
We're not turning off our brains.
We're just operating at a different function right now.
This is just riffing.
Yeah, this is logic, okay?
This is peak logic, okay?
You may not like this, but this is peak human behavior.
You're doing some bullying algebra.
What?
That is not.
You're doing some matrices, man.
Okay.
Well, they still haven't figured out Markov chains,
so what are you doing?
It's all just triangles.
You guys remember when I was hosting a space on my alt account
and I requested people with a very specific physical look about themselves?
Like I wonder if they had a shirt that they bought so that they could pose with it.
That was an interesting one.
For some reason, everybody on the stage then got a lot of weird pictures of men and they're very, very...
How do you call those things?
What do you call those things again?
Moobs? What?
Yeah, but like when a dude has it.
I just call them moobs.
Man boobs.
Okay, I thought you called them bitch tits or something.
What was that?
No, that's Bob.
Bob has bitch tits.
Okay.
That's Meatloaf.
His name was Robert Paulson.
That's such a good movie.
Your future political leader is listening to this, by the way.
what do you mean
I'm right here
I'm not just listening
I'm actively contributing
yay I'm part just listening, I'm actively contributing. Mm-hmm.
Yay, I'm part of the problem.
Somebody asked me if I was a serious presidential candidate when I gave the description of ass balls
as when you sit on your own balls in one of my posts.
And I forgot to respond with that, of course.
I may give the description of the word ass balls,
but at least I'm not going to say that you should grab women by the pussy.
That is insane.
Man.
I mean, let's face it, folks. The barrier of entry for president has gone down a little bit. So, I mean, if I'm being completely honest, I would rather
have a president who fucking jokes around
and at least says funny shit
instead of one who gets caught saying
shit that is entirely
plausible when he doesn't think
cameras are running.
Unpalatable. That's the word I wanted.
Interesting.
I mean, I don't even understand that statement grab him by the pussy like
no that's awkward in many ways
just don't like
that's not good advice
just don't
that kind of reminds me of like a
it's always sunny in Philadelphia episode.
If you know the scene, you'll understand exactly what I'm talking about.
It's like one of the characters
literally grabbed a person by that specific
placing and lifted them up all the way.
I'm like, what?
So, I don't know.
Did he watch a lot of that when he was growing up?
Or is that just an acquired taste?
Like, what's going on?
Well, that is a subgroup.
That is a kink family that I know of.
Because one night I was on Wikipedia.
And you ever be on Wikipedia and you just start somewhere and you wind up somewhere else?
I know I started on Penn & Teller.
But I did not end on Penn & Teller.
I just started clicking around and somehow I wound up on an article for something called cunt busting.
Which is apparently the pair of ball busting.
And now the Wikipedia article no longer exists.
It's since been deleted from the internet.
However, there's still a record of the article existing, so I know I'm not crazy.
There was a game that they would play at my high school called Six Clicks to Hitler.
that they would play at my high school called
Six Clicks to Hitler.
You would hit the random page on
Wikipedia and see how
quickly you could find Hitler's Wikipedia
page.
What the fuck is wrong with you people?
I mean, it was
a thing before
I was there.
It's basically the internet version of Six Degrees from Kevin Spacey.
Not Kevin Spacey, Kevin Bacon.
That's the shit.
What?
I don't drink enough alcohol to understand these references,
or to have ever done this stuff to understand what it is.
Oh no, like Six Degrees from Kevin Bacon is where you name an actor
and then you have six projects to link them to Kevin Bacon in some way.
What the fuck? Okay.
So like, say some actor did a movie with another guy, and then that guy did a movie with Kevin Bacon, then that guy is two degrees away from Kevin Bacon.
Like the first guy. The second guy is one degree away.
And Kevin Bacon's just Kevin Bacon.
He is zero degrees from Kevin Bacon.
Hmm.
I don't know.
It was like this game just for movie nerds
to show off how nerdy they were.
I'm sure you've heard the old
adage that
you're six people separated
from anyone in the world.
it's the same concept
It's the same concept.
real
I'm like
my wife's like very closely
related to Ted Nugent
so every time there's a family reunion it's just
full of nugents that's interesting there's just gaggles of them gaggles amazing
Amazing.
This is kind of a weird thing to stumble upon
first time I go to one of them gatherings.
Like, Nugent, Nugent, Nugent, Nugent.
I'm like, what? What's happening here?
Is that so?
I wonder why.
Al Gore.
That's why.
That was a fun time.
I mean, it was a funny time
rather
like the whole Florida recount thing
were you alive for that?
I don't think I was alive for that
I didn't know much about anything back then
that was
but was that W1 or W
like round 2
yeah it was W2
because
the interesting thing about it was
W1's other son
was the governor of Florida
once they got a certain point
he basically just declared it for his brother.
Technically, Gore should have won.
By W-2, I meant George W.'s second presidential election,
not the first one.
Because he had the two terms?
I couldn't remember if it was 2000 or 2004.
It would have been the first one. It would have been the first term.
Yeah, because he went up against John Kerry the second time.
Yeah.
So yeah, that was the millennium year.
So, yeah, that was the millennium year.
And before that, there was Y2K?
Yeah, dude. Nothing Burger.
Yes.
Hey, you call it a nothing burger.
I call it an entire closet full of preserved food
so I wouldn't have to go downstairs and cook shit anymore.
That was nice.
Wow.
I still remember people's recounting of that time.
They'd just be like, hey man,
what happened was, we just
walked outside,
and we just waited for the lights to turn off.
And then when the lights didn't turn off, we realized,
oh, there's no Y2K, nobody dies, we're all good.
And then it just banished.
Exactly.
And see, look, actually, Y2K was a real thing.
It just, nothing happened because all the people who built the shit that would have Y2K'd fixed it before it Y2K'd.
That's why nothing went to shit.
So they had to get all of the retired-ass people, all the COBOL devs and such,
they had to get them back in, pay them a nice sum, and have them fix
all of their stuff so that it finally works. Because nobody
would have conceptualized that that shit was gonna last that
long. But it did! And it was
everywhere. And I want you to take
a quick trip down memory lane
or, like, your imagination or whatever you happen to be using
for the construction of narratives in your brain.
I assume that's universal, actually.
It's weird that I don't know that. But imagine what else is foundational to the digital world, which runs by a similar problem.
Imagine if the next Y2K, we don't even know what it is.
And we couldn't even imagine what it is.
Because we don't know what the fuck the internet's built on. Which is
the truth. We kind of don't.
The infrastructure that
runs most of our internet
goes through some legacy
systems in America.
And almost
nobody knows how the fuck any of that
should work. So if it were to break one
day, we are fucked!
It's gonna be like that big-ass
router in the South Park episode
when the internet goes down, when they have to
unplug it and plug it back in.
Actually, it's like the time... No, I'm not gonna...
I was gonna talk about Cisco routers,
but then I realized it was not a good idea.
Instead of a giant router,
it's just going to be an Excel document that somebody deletes.
Then the internet doesn't work anymore.
It's a funny thing that my mom did once.
She, like, deleted something on her PC.
And then she literally said,
Oh my god, I think I deleted the internet.
I'm like, really?
I cut that too.
I lost it right then and there.
I think I deleted the internet.
I'm like, what the fuck?
I did not know you had such power
That's the moment was like you know what I don't think I can do that I'm not gonna I'm just gonna do nothing and walk away cuz it's not gonna be fun for you
It's gonna be fun for me enough for you. So I'm just gonna walk away
Hey, I think I deleted the internet.
I'm like, what?
Hey, tell me you don't understand technology
without telling me you don't understand technology.
I deleted the internet.
That was incredible.
But Cisco routers would be a fun topic
to talk about
that's exactly what I'm not going to talk about
there's reasons
okay
this is the first thing Suraj says
stop the wrong with this guy
Suraj you're Indian
you gotta start Sohan Maxing
go to San Francisco
make a fake
make a fake GPT rapper
and get the CCP honeypot
allocated to you. State mandatory
GF. Go get one.
Make sure to settle for an 8. Your ass is not valuable
enough.
Why the CCP honeypot
though? Because that's the only chance you'll have
wow dear lord i hope my uh my next greatest challenge is a ccp honeypot it's not a challenge
i mean i mean it's going to become a challenge because the dot-com bubble is going to come, guys. Oh, yeah.
If you haven't already clued it up enough,
like 80% of all those startups are going to go belly up very soon.
Because the money is going to run out.
All the AI skins are going to go belly up.
Yeah.
Wow.
What do you think happens when they shut down OpenAI?
I just want to see what happens when they just turn it off
like see all that code and all the
functionality just like disappear
I'm like hey you know all those APIs
everybody's been getting you to use you realize that's like
not under your control
right
that's somebody else's info flow
it's like saying I have a water source
but it's your neighbor's like but it's your neighbor's, like, fucking, um...
It's your neighbor's
water hose
that they forgot to turn off before they, like,
went away during the winter or some shit.
You know?
They're like, wow, I have a water source. I'm like, no, you don't.
You have a mistake.
Oh, wow.
Guys, we have a forest fire.
Ah, piece of shit!
Sorry, I stubbed my toe.
Swearing is good.
It helps you relieve the pain
and it makes you laugh afterwards.
So then your problems are gone.
Like, I went to a cafe
and I'm really
good at balancing shit normally.
But this time it didn't work out too well.
Because the door opened awkwardly
and dude, that shit flew
fucking high and right on the ground.
There was coffee everywhere.
So fucking retarded.
I was standing there
and everybody was looking at me all like hey guys
That was fun
No, nevermind
What did I want to say?
Oh, yeah, right, right, back to the...
Yeah.
So, you know, you don't control the data flow.
And, um, you guys remember the dot-com bubble?
Oh, yeah.
So, you guys want to see part two?
Because that's what's going to happen.
Oh, God.
I'm not much into short-selling.
I think it's really ass.
But this,
this is one of the things
I am definitely going to short.
You should buy put options there.
It's a more ethical way to do that.
Are you trying to tell me about ethics?
In an ethicless industry?
My bro.
Standards.
No, but like the profits, like if you know something's going to happen, the profits on put options is, you know, a little more risky, but way more rewarding.
How's it rewarding though?
Because your upfront cost is significantly lower.
So instead of having to, you know, cover the price price of the stock you're just covering the price
of the option so like for instance if if you were to go buy like uh nvidia puts it like 100
um you'd pay a hundred dollars an option and for every dollar that the price went under 100
you would make that hundred dollars back so if it went down $100, you would make that $100 back.
So if it went down to like $90, you would make $1,000 per.
So you'd make a thousand percent return if you bought a $100 per option and it went to $90.
Okay.
Whereas if you were to short that, you would have only made $600.
Hmm.
All right, cool.
I'll buy put options instead.
But yeah, still a function of shorting it.
Adrian, check the chat for my CCP honeypot meme.
Oh, my god.
I understand.
Where?
In the purple pill?
That's not the chat, is it?
That's not there either.
Right, okay.
You do some dumb shit sometimes.
Oh, I know this one, yeah.
I know this post.
The last thing you see before you start leaking state secrets. Yeah, I know this post. The last thing you see before you start leaking state secrets.
Yeah, I know this one.
Here's a fun part.
You can never leak, but that's why you have to be the GPT rapper.
Because you cannot ever leak any state secrets if the state never gave you any secrets.
So even if you're cognitive security's ass, the beautiful thing is that you're useless.
It's like the movie, you know?
It's like this, it's like this, it's like that movie in cyber tech
it's like this it's like this it's like this
I cannot
be used if I'm
useless
it's like an AI startup
that their gimmick is being radically transparent
but the thing that they're radically
transparent about is that they don't actually
do anything
exactly transparent, but the thing that they're radically transparent about is that they don't actually do anything.
Exactly.
Hey, you can't outsmart me,
because I'm retarded. I don't know what the fuck
you're saying.
That's so horrible.
If anybody's ever going to stop me in my tracks in a conversation,
it is somebody who is so stupid that they have literally made me speechless
trying to figure out what the fuck is going on in their head.
Challenge accepted.
It's rare, but what it happens it's like i'll just give up like it's not worth it i don't need to know what's going on in there it's fine
i could just, not do it.
That do I now?
Yeah, this is nice.
If you stop doing conversations, I'd be a little bit sad.
Not that. I mean, I could just, like, not speak to that.
To the stupid
oh i i find stupid people very inspiring sometimes
why because they say that i would never possibly think Why?
Because they say shit that I would never possibly think.
And it causes me to think things that weren't the thing that they said,
but things that I wouldn't have thought of in other situations.
For me, it's not really about quality of input sometimes it's just about input that i haven't already processed on some point
in my head like i just need something completely out there to make me go
oh thanks nothing to do with what you said you just made me think of something
completely different so thanks
yeah been there what you said you just made me think of something completely different so thanks
yeah been there
i find intellectual people don't stimulate that in me as much because like
i don't know say that i frequently thought myself i'll just kind of go, oh, okay. But when a stupid person says something that's just so dumb that I have to spend mental resources to pick apart what bits of information are missing to make that be the statement that
came out of their mouth, that takes me on a journey.
Real.
And then other times it's just so stupid like nothing good happens from it
like
it's like oh you're just
like you don't even know how the world works
you think the sun is made
of magic okay
I'm just gonna leave
I'm just going to leave.
the moon is made of cheese
The moon is made of cheese.
I disagree.
The moon is a giant egg.
Yeah.
Where else would dragons come from?
I love how our brains went basically to the same place there
yeah
where did dragons come from
I don't know
my jokes
cause I'm dragging these nuts all over
no no Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, never gonna die this been with me like I don't remember a time when it didn't
exist which one kind of like these nuts yeah it's like that's what she said it's
just always going to be
is he can't do the Saturn
do you know about the Saturn burger?
Nope.
It's a burger with a massive...
It's a massive onion ring in the center of it.
Hmm.
That's literally it.
So fucking anticlimactic that was
there's a restaurant in Iowa that sells
a burger where the bun is two
large fried mac and
cheese wedges
that sounds incredibly unhealthy
yeah
but it's real fucking delicious
I don't think I would think that that's delicious but
okay i probably might try it if we ever get to that point yeah they kind of use like a white
cheddar so it coats the burger with a nice like sticky cheesy taste so it doesn't mean cheese itself. It's real good. Yeah.
There's that one place that uses donuts for the bun.
I think there's a couple places that do that.
It's kind of like the Juicy Lucy in Minnesota where they put the cheese in the middle of the burger.
That actually sounds pretty good.
It is.
However, I'm not going to lie.
If you do happen to be in the Twin Cities area and you're looking for a burger,
there's a place called the D Spot that has a burger called the 50-50,
where it's literally just half-ground beef and half-ground bacon put together into a burger, and it's literally just half ground beef and half ground bacon put
together into a burger and it's fucking amazing.
Man.
God.
Now I really want something spicy.
I hope I have some spicy ramen leftover.
Oh my god.
What?
Oh man.
That's pretty good.
That's pretty good.
I mean,
ramen and rice are the two main food groups,
right? Right after meat.
What?
Meat, ramen, and rice. That's all you need.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Maybe you're not wrong.
I don't know.
Bodybuilders will agree.
Oh, and eggs.
Eggs are very important.
Eggs are the fucking best.
That they are.
I haven't had eggs in a bit.
Actually, I had eggs in the morning.
It still kind of blows my mind
that my breakfast each day
when I worked at Activision
was a dozen baked eggs.
Every fucking day.
Okay.
There's no way I could eat a dozen eggs now but then
I don't know I was just on my feet
so much of the day
that I just
I'd wake up
and eat a dozen eggs like you do
I guess
on your feet what does that mean
like actually standing around all yeah i have to walk
from place to place to check the status of different things had to talk to people uh
having to talk to people meant walking across the test floor and activision hires about i don't know
a couple hundred qa testers at a time so the office is a pretty big space it's quite a bit of distance to travel
considering my office was kind of in a back corner on the opposite end of the building so
despite the fact that most of my communication was with the other half of the building anytime
i had to like actually run a test with people and have to get up and walk around
i want also when i was a tester, during World War II,
they had that hub
where we had to have 100 fucking PCs
in the lobby.
So I'd have to walk around the entire office
just setting up gaming computers
that were strewn about everywhere
so everybody could move
from their gaming consoles over to a gaming computer.
That was fun.
Do you ever miss that?
I mean, kind of.
Just because I would find very novel ways to do it quickly,
which was kind of like spinning plates.
It was kind of fun going through and installing Windows on one computer,
and then on the computer next to it, it already has Windows installed,
so I'm installing Steam on that one. one next one next to that is one step ahead
of it so i'm installing the gaming drivers on that one i just kind of have like a system for
all of them that's how you can do many things at the same time without actually doing things at the
same time the things are doing themselves eh yeah? Yeah. It's all about time.
I do miss when I would walk over
and people wouldn't be doing what they were supposed to be doing,
and instead I would stand there
and try and figure out what they were doing
until they figured out I was standing behind them,
at which point they would go,
and I'd go, what's up to?
That was always fun.
I was never really mad.
I was just like, huh,
wonder what they found that distracted them.
Up and up, it's just ADHD.
They're just fucking off.
I should probably say something.
No, this will be more fun.
I'm just going to stand here and wait.
Plus, like, you gotta imagine, like, most of the QA staff is, like, young teenagers who are super fucking nerdy.
So the conversations that you would walk by, like, would just be the most nerdy weeb ass shit that you'd ever heard and it was just real fun to overhear those conversations too
people getting into a heated debate over who had the best sword and bleach like shit like that. It's just kind of fun to watch
the nerd culture evolve
and get more nerdy as
people got more and more sleep deprived
as the game crunch got more
and more.
Kind of like this.
Yeah, basically.
It's quite
nostalgic, except we don't have people
trying out Amazon Prime when it first came out and just ordering bags and bags of candy.
That was fun.
Prime came out in Minnesota
like the
two people on Night Shift ordered
I want to say 50 bags
of Halloween candy from Amazon
Prime and they were like
the big Sam's Club style bags
so we just had a corner in the PC
area that was just full of Halloween
candy for like
two weeks
my god two weeks.
My God.
I miss QA testing games. I'm not going to lie about that one.
There's just something
so satisfying
about making the game
do something that it's not
supposed to do.
You've played Halo with me. You've watched
me just fuck off because I noticed a thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's kind of how I find things
like the time when I spawned inside of that
like destroyed car
in that one map
just by crouching next to it
and then dying and then you guys revived me
and I'm just like oh I'm stuck in here now
you figured out something
I can shoot out but they can't
shoot at me.
Ha ha ha.
The spawn moved.
Now there's nothing.
Dude, Call of Duty was always fun
because you could go inside walls randomly.
Yeah.
The beauties of that old Quake 3 engine
yeah
I think my favorite
one was on one of the zombies maps
in Black Ops 3
if you stood on the stairs and you had a Goliath
zombie hit you while you were
holding out a shield it could just push
you right down beneath the stairs
and you'd just be underneath them.
Can you shoot out?
Yeah. Oh, nice!
But I mean, you'd run out of ammo, but it wouldn't matter because you could still just
punch them.
Wow.
Or another good one was uh when i figured out uh in advanced warfare they had like these exo
shield like abilities where you get like a shield and things and i figured out that if you pull out
the shield right as your pack of punching it the shield would just get attached to the weapon. So now you have a shield weapon.
Yeah.
You could just hide in the corner with
the weapon and nothing would be able to get through
because there's just this fucking shield attached to it.
Which is not how that should have been
coded at all.
You shouldn't have
that as a property of the fucking shield.
You should have it as a property of the character who owns
the shield. It shouldn't be transferable
to other objects. What are you
doing?
Just had to have a
good laugh at that one.
I mean,
you can't deny it's
fun.
Remember the thing you told me about?
The infinite rocket launcher glitch?
Infinite rocket launcher?
That's just fun, eh?
Why not?
Hey, I'm become human airstrike.
Okay.
We had several of those.
I think the best one was
one of the DLCs for Advanced Warfare.
There was this energy gun
that also had a switch for a grenade launcher.
But they tied the grenade launcher to the energy,
like, the recharging part of it.
So you could just shoot grenades, like, mad.
And you're just fucking flinging them halfway across the map
and picking each other off with them.
So much fun.
I mean
it becomes a grind at some point
that is not nice
but like when you have a bunch of people together
you cut out
Periscope's being dicky
yeah you cut it
which by the way, I don't know if anybody saw me disappear for a while,
but my phone was not happy about this spaces for some reason.
It just, like, flipped out, and all of the different, like, emojis for everyone,
all the reactions in the audience stopped for about five minutes,
and then they all happened at once. And then my phone went, uh, nah.
Aha! It worked! Holy fuck!
Oh, hello, hello, welcome back.
Join on the other phone. My other phone went down to shit.
That seems to be the theme for today.
Technical difficulties.
How long was X down today?
Wait, it was?
Huh? At least for an hour or two.
I was in a dead zone. For for me everything was down relative to my perspective
that's fair no it started i want to say around 11 i think is when notifications started going down 11 central time and uh then eventually the entire site was just like no no i'm good
Then eventually the entire site was just like, no, no, I'm good.
Couldn't access it from the app.
Couldn't access it from the web.
Just kind of went away for a little bit.
Wow.
It kind of ruined my buzz.
I was in a good posting mood.
I was doing lots of replies.
And then everything broke.
I was like, I guess I'll just go play RuneScape.
I got to do something to generate, right?
Yeah, fair enough.
I don't know like what has been going on with the X servers lately.
I think like everything went down a couple of days ago to three days,
four days ago.
And then there was that fire in the one data center that took down messages.
That was,
that was funky messages
and notifications mind you like to me that's unacceptable like a one point point of failure
in a production project that uh seems like a thing you shouldn't do but personally i mean
just by my own coding standards,
I generally like a fallback,
at least one for any public service.
Yeah, what if they didn't know?
You know, like, because the
thing they inherited was really strange.
So what if they didn't know that,
and only then they figured it out
when the whole thing was on fire?
Yeah, that's what the outages have been.
They're like, what happens when we turn this one off?
Oh, it's like, where's, where's this one located?
Well, let me turn this button off and see what happens.
Oh, yep.
That's the one I'm looking for.
Fuck.
And there's just the one, like that one light switch in the old house where you're like, what the fuck does this one go to?
And it's only affecting accounts made before 2008.
There's like three really old people are just like, hey, it's just like the olden days.
It was like coded in for some reason,
they turned it off and then everybody has animated profile pictures again.
That would be insane.
I see.
Oh, dude, if that happens, they're going to need way more servers.
That's going to cook the whole site
I hope they don't ever bring back animated profile pictures
I didn't even know that was a thing
I kind of liked it
So here, it's like a legacy feature
If you had an animated profile picture at the time
You will still, on browser See the animated profile picture at the time, you will still, on browser,
see the animated profile picture
when they're in this space.
Yeah, it looks epic.
Neat.
Mm-mm-mm.
And when you're on Android,
you go to my profile,
you click on my profile picture,
you actually don't get a square profile picture.
You get a landscape aspect one.
Because that's how mine was cropped back then.
Because this was actually an NFT profile picture of mine.
Actually, it's a profile picture that I turned into a UTXO on Bitcoin,
then I streamed it to Ethereum blockchain to act as a fake nft so because i wanted to like you know trash talk the whole
concept of ethereum because i didn't like it because i like bitcoin long story
anyway so what happened was since it was a full picture i then wanted to put it on and i did and
it auto cut it at the center to this picture right here and so technically the
data that is the picture is still there in the same way oh and by the way it's eternally on the
bitcoin blockchain that's a starting point isn't that cool yeah so if you follow the metadata
if there even is any there
it'll lead you right back to the Bitcoin blockchain
and it's always going to be there
for as long as Bitcoin exists
ain't that something
