Full Transcription
Thank you. Thank you. my bro was frame-mogged
as he was
gesture-maxing
and because of this he had a
generational cortisol spike
there you go
unironically fucking like unironically people have been talking like this i think it's so funny
i can't get it out of my head gesture maxing on his is like gesture maxing on his phone
i don't know why it's i think it's hilarious it's just great it's just a great new kind of like uh
you know the the the gen z brain rot has now evolved into people slowly growing up and
getting out of puberty, so now people are starting to Luxmax, and that's great, that's
actually really good.
So before you had this pre-mine of what it was going to be, because of the whole Sigma
male grind set bullshit, right?
And so after this, this kind of, like, evolved into something
else, where now you have
like, looks maxers, basically, you know?
It's really good. I actually think it's hilarious.
You're gonna, like, end up in, um...
You're gonna end up in a situation where
two things are gonna happen. One,
in which the prioritization
of looks will be a damning
for civilization, and the other in which it will actually
be a bit of a benefit, because, you know, for the first time, people actually have a pressure to, I don't know, say, damning for civilization, and the other in which it will actually be a bit of a benefit, because
for the first time, people actually have a pressure to, I don't know,
say, take care of themselves, and
something appealing to look at, because a lot of
people just kind of let themselves go,
they just don't give a shit, right?
Like,
because
there's this idea
that effort into self is like, how do I explain this?
So it's almost like a given where you're saying like, okay, you can only look good if it's your
genetics and not like you actually take care of yourself. And there's like certain limits where
you go like, oh, I shouldn't have to like to like you know put as much work into myself to actually look good
you know you should just accept me for who i am it's like that's just complete bullshit you should
absolutely take care of yourself and your own health right that's absolutely true right and
this often happens in like relationships and shit like that where like beforehand you do the whole
peacock maxing thing where you do the best you can to like appear a certain a certain way, and then after the fact, you just kind of, like,
fucking hit a wall and just fall off, because you don't give a shit,
you, like, become super fat, and you become, like, non-exercise,
and all this kind of shit, right?
There's just, like, there's a kind of
duty to the self,
as a human, that you have to, like, you know,
take care of yourself physically,
so as to not basically fall off, because,
you know, you don't have all the time in the world,
and it just is great to feel good and to look good right and there's a lot of things you can do
uh maybe you know you have some sort of deformities maybe it's like something that's going to be a bit
harder for you um but you can still take some efforts right i mean there's like there are many
options for people so i think this wholeaxer thing is actually kind of interesting.
And it's somewhat good, although it's kind of a byproduct that itself isn't entirely beneficial to the future.
But we shall see how that evolves over time.
People are bone smashing and shit.
So there's this thing that like like because they want more rigid jawlines
right? They want to look more chiseled.
And so what they do is they do this thing called bone mashing
or like bone smashing rather.
So they just like take a hammer and they
like hit their
cheekbones and their
jaws in order to basically like stimulate
growth in those regions
so that's to accentuate them.
Right? So that's where you can get
more of a chiseled physique I don't know if it works entirely right but the one thing that does
seem to work somewhat there's some research on this is like thumb pulling where basically you
are it's basically like the the original form of mewing which is the real thing that you should
be doing right instead of like all the other crazy stuff where you have to have, like, good tongue posture
and, you know, manage your maxilla,
all of these things.
It's actually really good.
You know, a lot of people...
It's actually kind of interesting.
You remember this, like...
You know this, like, weird liberal look?
Not liberal look.
How do I explain this?
The millennial look?
It's, like, a very interesting phase
for some reason that produces
this very specific phenotype,
which is, like, commonly associated
as the millennial
look. You know the one where your face is like a curve? You know, it's curved like a bow, where
the chin goes all the way in. It's just kind of like, what is that? That's a recessed maxilla.
So there are many things, there are many reasons why this may occur.
Like, for instance, not chewing enough, not having a good tongue posture,
only being fed soft foods, all these kinds of things, right?
Nutrition is another aspect, right?
I have much more, if you've seen my face, I have a much more chiseled appearance.
That is because, you know, as a kid, I ate a lot of like, you know, tough things. Like I ate a lot of meat, of course.
Uh, but also during the, during my like 15, 14, something like that, I ate a ton of fucking sugar cane, like the raw sugar cane. Every day I'd go to the fucking field and spend like
three to four hours like eating sugar cane. And so it's a very tough substance to bite into.
Um, so we'll definitely exercise your shit.
And I had like actually felt the muscles growing
in my cheeks because of that.
So that definitely helped out a fair bit.
Actually even like lost,
chipped my tooth a little bit one time
because it bit a little too hard.
So actually I started getting stronger.
But that's like some of the things you can do, right?
You know, eat tough foods.
A lot of people don't actually eat tough food it's quite interesting it's a huge thing but yeah i just
thought i'd start off with that because it's funny yep you see the thing about western digital they
have no more hdd capacity left as ceo reveals massive ai deals so apparently there's gonna be
price surges on memory like like you were talking about weeks ago so it's happening it's already happening with western digital
damn crazy well that fucking sucks yeah this opening i finally gonna sell their ships like
when is that happening i don't know i wish i knew that's an that's annoying yeah the memory
prices are gonna the memory prices are going to still keep...
They will either remain stagnant or they will go up.
I think that they will most likely continue to go up
until OpenAI or some of these other companies
basically decide to just rug their entire inventory.
OpenAI, I think, has to actually do that
unless they can somehow come up with more funding
because they don't really use a lot of what they have. OpenAI, I think, has to actually do that unless they can somehow come up with more funding.
Because they don't really use a lot of what they have.
They have a deal right now that they have to honor.
And so they have to pay for this because Compete has been manufactured for them.
And so they'll need to pay that up.
But right now, they do not have the billions.
So they would need to basically sell the inventory of basically RAM that they have in order to kind of, you know, account.
So are they going to get more money or are they going to sell it?
Because if they sell, it's going to be great.
Like the value of it's going to go down again.
It's going to be some correction.
I think it will still be not really close to prior levels.
I think the price will remain a little higher
than it once was.
Because there's just general demand as well
that is factored in.
But the memory companies
at this current trajectory
seem to understand that the demand is temporary,
which is why they are not extending their capacity. trajectory seem to understand that the demand is temporary,
which is why they are not extending their capacity.
If you knew that this demand was permanent,
you would build factories to meet the demand, right? But in this case, they're not doing that
because they know it's not going to really happen.
Also, memory is a very neglected area
in computing.
So this is actually really good for these
companies.
So I cannot imagine
them doing anything about this, to be honest.
It is not in their interests, and it's not
in their shareholders' interests, to
do anything about this
and to lower the price.
It would just, you know know to basically meet a man
So we're probably gonna like this is probably gonna stay as it is for quite a while and it's probably not gonna change
Which means that RAM will stay expensive and probably will become even more expensive every time
That is unfortunate for a lot of people who want to buy it. You know, I want to like buy a new computer these days
I mean I got in but man
I barely got
in dude like at the time when i bought the stuff the fucking terrace came in i was like dude i have
to like buy the shit now it's gonna get so bad and it did you know a month or two after that it just
spiked good timing yeah i could i should say it was like somewhat lucky i wanted to do it the
entire time but then i saw all the shit that was happening. I saw what Trump was doing, and I was like, bro, we gotta move now.
I got no time. We gotta buy that shit now.
I may not be able to ship it here, but at least let's have it in inventory.
One of our friends held onto it for me so that I can later then turn it into a computer, and now I have that.
So now I basically have random, went up a whole bunch
of...
So it's one of the best investments
I've ever made is my computer,
which I bought from XRevenue
back then when XRevenue still worked
out pretty well. These days XRevenue is not the same
as it once was.
Payment for stuff is kind of low
for a lot of things things so it really sucks tremendous
ass uh that that's the bit that's unfortunate the uh they're they're doing this thing where
they're now uh going back to impressions again so instead of using comments they go verified
impressions uh so it was like before was verified comments, which nobody believed,
but it was like, okay, well,
that's kind of retarded for you to think that you know better
because the documentation basically states
the exact thing that I said.
But so that's been kind of restored effectively.
So like they have impressions now.
Before was ad-based, like was advertisements, right?
So like however many impressions you had on advertisements,
now that's not the case so you have verified impressions and they're probably calculating
it much the same way as they did prior with the comments where comments were like you know get to
10 25 percent of like the the it's because revenue sharing it's not ad revenue sharing. It's not ad revenue sharing. It's different. So if somebody buys like a premium
subscription, then they, the person, like if they comment on your stuff, you get basically a small
percentage of whatever that premium subscription is. That's why when somebody has a premium plus
subscription, it actually gives you more money. So your audience has to be like paying for the service for you to get paid effectively.
It's kind of like a trickle-down thing.
And so with the impressions, it's very similar.
You basically have to have,
these are all verified impressions.
So you have to like, there's either premium or premium plus
and off those, you get the percentage
and then that is going to be your monetization.
So of course, it's very difficult
because if you want to post about like, you know,
abstract stuff, you're actually not going to get anywhere,ization. Of course, it's very difficult because if you want to post about abstract stuff,
you're actually not going to get anywhere,
which means that you'll have really bad performance,
which I have solved.
I've solved that problem for myself by just doing Discord things now.
So I have the advanced members thing,
and I have the Knights of the Order thing as well.
And I do that daily.
And that is now basically accounted for the lack of X monetization. Because the thing is, I want to post for the love of the Order thing as well. And I do that daily. And that is now basically accounted
for the lack of ex-monetization.
Because the thing is, I want to post for the love of the game.
You know?
And I don't want to be forced to post about shit that's
political or some shit, just to make money.
So it makes more sense to
just get people to pay me directly.
So I just set up the Discord server.
And so you can go in there, subscribe directly.
And, you know, that's the thing.
That's what happens.
So that's basically sustaining that operation now.
And, yeah.
I'm actually very surprised by the amount of value that people have taken out of it.
And the impact that it's had.
It's kind of like how spaces used to be here.
But, like, even spaces themselves have died as a concept.
I mean, yesterday I had, like, I keep doing this thing where daily i know check out how many spaces there are and i saw on the
platform at least in the interface some of the spaces weren't even registered for some fucking
reason so it seemed like there were only like six or five or six spaces that were in the spaces tab
i was like what the fuck you look only i've got six spaces on the entire platform platform with half a billion people what
like that sounds improbable so either something is broken or spaces are legitimately that dead
i would argue that's probably a bit of both uh the interest in spaces has kind of like faded
over time it is not like what it once was so i remember like i uh initially started um with a
conversation back in 2024.
We would like go on and there used to be actually tech people that would come on.
And those people, they haven't even been offline.
They haven't been online in almost a year sometimes now.
They've kind of like given up, which isn't interesting.
You know, they're busy now doing their things.
And this coincides with the death of teapots.
So they're like, you'd have situations where on a random weekday
there were like 400 people in attendance and that was like prior to 100k so
you kind of see how uh and then weekly you'd have like 600 so you can kind of see how the
interested spaces wholesale has kind of like changed and disappeared,
unless you're doing political stuff.
And even then, the interest has actually died down quite significantly.
Like there are engagement farming spaces.
There's these like people who are complete idiots
who keep talking about the Hamas situation and whatnot.
And they make spaces,
and those spaces get up to like 800 listeners these days.
Back then, that shit used to get like 1,500. I'm not going to lie to you. You used to get 2x that. and they make spaces and those spaces get up to like 800 listeners these days back then that
shit used to get like 1500 i'm not gonna lie to you you used to get 2x that right i'm not saying
that they should get 2x that because obviously these people that we should listen to them they're
actually kind of stupid um like these people are all supposed geopolitics experts but they're all
like funded by qatar so they don't know what they're talking about it's all nonsense um that
if you believe them you're kind of stupid and general, if you even listen to such live performances,
they're all political in nature, you are very stupid.
I'm not going to lie to you, it's a waste of time.
So, like, these guys, like, they shouldn't have more listening,
but that's what it used to be.
It used to be like 1,500, now it's like 800.
So it's not that people are losing interest in the matter,
it's that people have lost interest in spaces, right?
Because there's really nothing that much you can break down realistically.
And at some point, you even reach this problem where you may know something very, very well,
and you want to talk about what you know, but you understand that the moment that you do,
you may cause harm, right?
Because you may say, let's say, for instance, you work in manufacturing,
and you know a very specific kind of like almost open secret.
But the reason why it's called an open secret is because you want it to basically not escape a certain, you know, like brackets.
Well, not really bracket. How would I say this?
Like you don't want it to like just break beyond a certain confine because otherwise there's going to be lots of problems.
a certain confine because otherwise there's going to be lots of problems you know like in
manufacturing if like say for instance in food in food in the food industry if you were to describe
half the shit that we're doing with food they would they would just everybody would just freak
out when it's totally normal right you just go okay well that mean that's the only way you can
actually deal with this and you go like oh wow all this is happening i'm like yeah pretty much
that's that's how this that's how this is made over here that's why it has these substances in
it so you can either make that shit of yourself or be like do the convenience bit but you don't Pretty much. That's how this is made over here. That's why it has these substances in it.
So you can either make that shit of yourself or do the convenience bit,
but you don't get to freak out.
So the average population doesn't understand a lot of things.
So if you were to start yapping about that kind of shit on spaces, for instance,
you'd have this containment escape thing, which is a big problem.
So you can't even talk about certain things beyond that.
Because you may have a really good handle on the situation.
So if you did speak about it, there's going to be a problem.
There's going to be a problem.
Because you'll be like, oh my god, how could they say this?
How is this something that they accept?
I don't know.
It's a whole thing.
Andre, what's up, dude?
What's up, Adrian?
What's up, Blaise?
How are you guys doing? Do you ever think about 3D printing?
Quite a bit in the past, actually.
I'm kind of surprised that we don't have a prolific 3D printing of jewelry.
It should be almost in every single model, I feel like.
Why do you ask?
Jewelry doesn't really make sense. That's not a thing.
Jewelry is supposed to be a thing thing that isn't mass manufactured in my opinion this is a this is supposed to be art
mass-produced art isn't art that's just whatever that is right that's just slop at that point
um not because i like i think sometimes about these uh you know 3d printing
rake rocket engines i've seen this one that's really cool. That's made out of copper.
It's a little unstable, but it's still pretty cool.
It's a good idea.
It's an interesting thought experiment.
Because you have these metal 3D printers that use this powder.
I thought that was really cool.
I think even SpaceX was using this back in 2014, I think. Yeah.
I think some components are still 3d printed right
yeah this they basically the laser the powder effectively like it's yes but what
I meant for jewelry is not like a not for the purposes of mass production but
actually for the purposes of unique creations right so you can't have a
store stocked with a hundred thousand different variations of what's called a ring. So you're kind of limited in that,
but you also can't pre-stock all the inventory, but it can create a lot of,
so you basically got to decide what's the popular excuse and kind of limit the
options. I feel like with a 3d printer, you could,
you should be able to choose your type of ring,
choose your type of necklace and choose your type of necklace,
and then your stones,
and then they put it together for you.
Maybe for prototyping,
but outside of that, I really don't see it.
I mean, if I wanted a ring made,
I'll just have a,
I'll have basically whatever it is,
like a goldsmith,
make that shit by hand.
There's something more valuable about that,
and the stability is also different.
There's certain things that can't be easily designed by hand. You definitely need a 3D print from various, like if we're starting to do where like, for
example, the idea I had, imagine a stud with a stone in the middle, but the stud is a silver
rose with tiny petals and all detail, and the stone in the middle put a ruby in there.
The detail of those petals is very difficult to do
unless you 3D print it.
That's true, but I think that the difficulty
is the thing that gives it value, right?
That's the bit that's important.
Unless, of course, you're going after something.
Unless, of course, you're saying there's
something that is so super precise that it's basically not just art it's a feat of engineering to 3d put that i mean well in this
case like you're still using a feat of engineering you're just using simplified old engineering
to do very limited designs what i'm saying is use the latest engineering to do the best designs
use the latest engineering to do the best designs. So we just,
it is art that gives you more capability versus, uh,
what's available before. Right. Right.
But yeah, I wasn't spoke space doing something with 3d printing engines.
And I thought a neutron from a rocket lab is 3d well,
they're carbon fiber based,
but there was another company that was like 3d printing
of the full rocket.
Was it Stokes space or something like that?
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I haven't been in that for a bit.
I haven't been doing much space related stuff in a while.
Gotta get back into that actually.
Yeah, I was gonna ask what have you been up to?
I keep meaning.
I'll probably hop into your Discord private service this week.
It's been a crazy-ass period.
Yeah, yeah.
The thing that we've been doing...
So last year for me was the year of kind of like Merit and Finance.
So that's how I solved some of the...
I saw a difficulty adjustment wavefront coming
for like X.
So I decided to start making changes,
which is why now I have that Discord server.
You just have to adapt with those difficulty wavefronts,
just surf them really.
Cause sometimes you can't sustain them.
It's a little big sometimes.
So you guys like move.
It's what it is.
And so like this year, i think will be almost like
spiritual warfare actually it's more and more so spiritual warfare right so because you have
narrative engineering right and so because of narrative engineering it's basically like
spiritual warfare pretty much so that's kind of what seems to have been the focus at this moment
like that's why like even you have aspects of geopolitics
it's just like it's a thing that comes in
right
so that's been like taking up a lot of the
attention, I think towards
the later
half of the year, we're probably going to get
more
space related things, maybe like
oh maybe actually no, maybe like
a month or two, we may get some more space related things, it i think oh maybe actually no maybe like a month or two we may get some more space related things that will be quite great it's a
great year i think for space industries in general because the public is paying a lot more attention
to it um this brings with it all manner of different problems but it's also really good
right well dr martin i remember the guy who does, he's doing the research on trying to blow massive glass spheres in space.
He apparently has some exciting updates in like two weeks.
But other than that, yeah, I mean, Artemis should be going up in March, hopefully.
That'll be super cool.
I do wonder what Starship is going to look like,
I do wonder.
What are you?
Yeah.
what that next launch is going to perform like,
because they have used a booster that looks a very bit different,
actually, it's very different, I must say, from the other boosters
if we look at how it is constructed.
So I'm really excited to see how well that will perform.
I'm not sure they will do a cache,
but it would be great if they did a cache again.
We've been, we need that.
We needed that.
We're going to need that.
So let's see what happens.
Yeah, I mean, first of all, I think
this is the first time they tested the booster with cryo
with a full tank.
I believe before they couldn't do the full tank testing,
like full tank, full pressure.
So they really thoroughly tested this one.
I mean, I know the last V3 won't pop,
but I think it was not the booster.
I think it was, again, one of those uh what do you call them the
pressure small pressure uh what are they called vessels something precious small pressure vessels
the ones they use for basically mini variability so it was in space and stuff but yeah you're right
like this booster i think the griffins the metal the motors for that are
actually in the tank this time so it's not sitting above the tank there's a couple other things
obviously the the ring is no longer there so it's technically nine pounds lighter well
or nine times lighter um yeah so it should be a interesting upgrade
yeah yeah we're gonna see we're gonna see where that ends but yeah no i hope they catch it that be an interesting upgrade. Yeah.
We're going to see where that ends.
I hope they catch it.
That would be great.
As for the bursts, there were some really interesting occurrences. That was
something.
Imagine living in Boca Chica
and you just wake up one morning
to either the largest
rocket launch or
the largest non-nuclear explosion on the east coast yeah yeah i keep thinking about that
fucking meme it's great yeah i think about it all the time can you like 2 a.m or whatever like holy shit exactly yeah wearing that much yeah it's like kind of ballparking it
but like you got 5 000 tons of propellant if that if you say a thousand tons a ton of propellant
gives you like a ton of tnt equivalent probably doesn't but even if you say that that's a five
kilo ton explosion yeah i think the biggest like mother of all bombs is like I think it's like
64,000 pounds of TNT equivalents are like 30 tons. So it's like a
hundred times bigger than that
Yeah
So I said largest
explosion yeah exactly
But it's like it's not it's not only largest non-nuclear, it's actually
within the realm of nuclear
explosions. That's what I mean.
Yeah, exactly.
Damn.
Yeah.
It was quite
fascinating. I mean, I think
it gets close to nuclear, but it isn't really.
Because the problem is, it has the capacity to output that much energy in one go, but it doesn't really do that, right? That's the issue. It doesn't convert to energy as quickly as fissile material does, and of a nuclear explosion, but when it actually explodes, it doesn't look that way because
oxidization isn't rapid
enough.
Basically, the energy conversion
isn't rapid enough.
That's the key of a nuclear weapon.
You are trying to get as much energy
as possible out of the reaction
within as short amount of time as possible.
That's what a nuke does, which is also why, like, when people talk about nuclear reactors
and they equate nuclear reactors to nuclear bombs, I immediately know that these people
do not know anything about how actually nuclear anything works because those are fundamentally
different.
A nuclear weapon is an implosion-explosion which is designed to create
as much energy release as possible within a short
amount of time as possible, whereas
a nuclear power plant has tried to do the exact
opposite of this. It's tried
to burn as long as possible.
That's the idea.
It's supposed to burn at high temperature
for as long as possible without
blowing up. That's the entire
design of it.
That was the biggest issue with Chernobyl, right?
That exact thing, like the initial explosion,
technically it might have been nuclear given its strength.
It was like several kilotons,
but it was like pressure combined with nuclear.
But the biggest issue was that it just kept burning
and that burn was a massive release.
I think they were saying, like,
it was, like, every minute or so,
a Hiroshima-level-of-radiation release.
Yeah, yeah, that's the only issue.
For days.
Yeah.
That's the only issue with that.
It wasn't really...
I mean, the explosion was sizable,
but it wasn't really that impressive.
The thing that was really bad was the fact
that it just kept burning
and putting the material out into the atmosphere atmosphere which then basically intoxified an entire city
and areas around the countryside there. Which is an interesting example for nuclear power,
yeah sure, but again the reason why that whole thing exploded was because they were basically
cheaping out. Not only was it human error, but it was also keeping out. It was both things. I mean, like, they literally, you could almost claim it was almost sabotage at that level.
Like, they, yeah, it was ridiculous.
Yeah. And using graphite was really not, is really not the move,
if we already understand what's going to happen with, um, with carbon,
and that it just turns into a fucking gas because it burns.
So, like, you know, That's kind of what happened there.
You're supposed to have the control rods, the control rods made out
of graphite, I think, and try to insert those
so you can basically absorb all of the neutrons
so that the fission
would be controlled,
the fission would itself be controlled,
because you're taking out the little bits that basically make
the fission happen.
And that was just
too hot, and that didn't work and so they just burnt
and it basically didn't control so it went
critical and then
blew up.
It's one of the only examples in history of an event that bad.
So that was
like what you said,
that was so bad, you could argue that was
sabotage and you'd probably even get away with it.
Because that was ridiculous purely and then of
course they want to shoot they run inside the japanese tsunami incident but even that wasn't
so bad like it's pretty bad still right but it wasn't that bad i mean more people died from the
tsunami than the actual uh radiation right more damage was done from the tsunami it's like that
that almost fully withstood
and the tsunami and the earthquake itself right it was brutal yeah like that was a whole but that
was a nice one together so yeah it's not that like the the what what happened there wasn't really the
fold of the nuclear power plants people keep bringing that up when they like make an argument
there's only two things that they remember. It's the... It's Japanese
nuclear power plants,
what happened during the fucking earthquake,
one of the worst in its
history, and whatever happened to
Chernobyl, but they don't exactly understand the context
or the implications.
And that pisses me off, because I'm like, bro, dude,
if you want to consume boomer slop and make all our
energy prices go higher,
that is not even understandable.
Normally I look at a thing and I go, okay, well, there's a degree that's understandable.
That's just fucking stupid.
You're sabotaging yourself.
Like, that doesn't make any sense.
And you're sabotaging me in the process, which is where I have a problem, right?
Like, if you have a dumbass opinion that doesn't mean anything, that doesn't have any, like, you know, scale, then fine, I don't give a shit, right?
It's a useless opinion.
But if you have a dangerous opinion, a bad opinion, and you then say that that is reality, then, well, you're going to actively fuck my life over too, so that's where my problem,
that's where it becomes my problem now. So, yeah, that's kind of how I see that.
Yeah, agreed.
Well, we're going to get a renaissance of nuclear energy
in the US. Actually, of all kinds of energy, I think.
Could be. Not too sure about that, but you know. I mean, they still have to like, you
know, actually build the nuclear power plants themselves, and that's going to take a lot
of time. There's also a bunch of descaling that's happening, which is really annoying,
so I'm not sure how exactly they're going to go about doing that. And usually to build
up a nuclear power plants or to restore an existing one takes a long time.
It takes a lot of money.
So are they going to do that?
I thought they're going down in scale just so it becomes simpler from regulatory, from construction and everything.
Right.
But will it also be effective?
That is the issue.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's also that what's called the concept, the wall back. I think funny
enough, Bill Gates actually talked about in 2006, it's called TerraPower. The idea where
you rely on passive fission rather than active fission. So you basically take even possibly
nuclear waste, you put it in a sealed container.
It's not an act of fish, and it's just basically effectively just,
like, it's not like an analogy.
It's not an act of fire.
It's like embering through, and you collect energy that way,
and you can effectively have something super small that can feed,
like, a building and put it in the ground for 60 years,
and it's all sealed, no danger, no nothing.
Yeah, that already existed like way before Bill Gates's time.
Like, what do you think they put in all those probes?
Those are decaying radioactive isotopes that turn heat into energy.
That's why the Voyager thing still works to this day.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's, I don't remember what the difference was because that one is a plutonium, if I'm not mistaken.
This one, they were saying, basically,
you can use nuclear waste for it as well.
Well, man, I mean, you could also use, like, thorium reactors,
and you can still use the nuclear waste.
Like, we're already at that level
where we can actually have, like, large-scale nuclear reactors
that can use what was prior considered to be waste.
Then we also have moons on fusion, but but yeah, no, that already exists.
Like large scales, even not just like small individual scales.
And as for like things that are insulated, contained,
just look at aircraft carriers and nuclear sops.
I was going to say that next. Yeah, yeah.
But those are active fusion. Yeah.
It's true. It's true. Those are active, but they're very well, but they're very contained.
That's the bit that's interesting for me, right?
Because you have to like have these things go out into like, you know,
basically environments of potential combat. So they have to be stable.
Also, what I think is interesting that instead of like actually refueling the
reactor, they have to cut the reactor out of the ships and then put a new
reactor in. Like the whole thing comes up the ships and then put a new reactor in
like the whole thing comes up but that's after it's been in there for like decades so it makes sense
that's interesting yeah that's that's absolutely right which
if i'm but i it is still active vision right it's not passive uh
i'm not entirely sure i I think it is active, yes, though.
I'm like 80% sure that it is.
20% being doubt in accounting for time.
Look it up, let me see.
It says active.
Yeah, yeah, active.
Yeah, active.
Yeah.
Yeah. Well, what's so are. Active, okay. Yeah, active.
Yeah.
Well, what's so bad about active fission, though?
You run the risk of it exploding always.
Tiny, but still.
So it's like the active fission in the sense that it's like,
it's technically, you can run the risk of technical chain reaction
but is the risk
okay so here's a question though in scenarios like this
the chance that
Shaquille O'Neal is going to appear
in your bedroom at 3am tonight
is very low but never
zero is it one of those examples
no it's like effectively as far as in this time like
you you for example there's like talks of like putting it um like using nuclear reactors smaller
ones portable ones for military bases and everything and one of the issues is that then
it becomes literally a target of priority number one right because you got a potentially
like uh what do you call it a dirty dirty you got potential for a dirty bomb with that so
you just target it as much i think that's a big issue but again i'm talking beyond my expertise
here so basically you're saying it's a detector problem. That would be the main issue. No, no, like it's a containment,
like we're talking about military vessels, right?
So it's a containment problem.
So you're basically going to be trying to hit those specifically
for the reason of releasing whatever's in that reactor.
Right.
For subs, it makes sense.
For aircraft carrier, probably two makes sense, given carrier probably to make sense given its size
anyways and given that it's heavily protected as is but
yeah
or just go the high centralized or just go like the large scale centralized option honestly adopt what
like you consider all these problems just like okay we'll just create a big thing and just wire it
Like you consider all these problems of just like,
okay, we'll just create a big fucking thing
and just wire it.
I'm not sure if Chad has said anything.
I could not hear what he said.
I didn't.
Wait, was that Chad?
Was that you talking about centralized, not Adrian?
No, it was me.
I'm the one who said centralized.
Oh, okay.
No, I didn't hear it.
Yeah.
I'm gonna vide him up again,
but this is kind of deed.
You could relate to something. I am curious, by the way, back to vide him up again, but this is kind of I'm curious
by the way, back to your Starship thing
I'm curious when we started looking
at the first interiors of both the HLS
and the Blue Moon, like actual
full mock-up of what
the final vehicles will look like, because that should be
coming soon
I don't have many thoughts of it
honestly
I think it's like
the mockups are great for both
it's just at this point a contract war
to see which one is going to be the best
and I think that if they can prove
it'll work
then obviously I think SpaceX
is going to get that contract
although maybe they have reservations on this as well.
Outside of them receiving a contract for going to the moon,
they're still going to become the default Amazon of space, basically.
Usually when you deliver things, just go straight up Amazon.
So they're going to be Amazon of space.
Jeff Bezos wants to be the Amazon of space jeff bezos wants to be the amazon space but
he does not have the technical he does not have the technical capabilities or like his team did
not have the technical capabilities or the or the iteration or the the rate of the rate of manufacturing
like to to sustain that they do not have that and i don't think they're capable of getting it either
i i don't know about that because like the uh new
glenn is fairly impressive and once you switch to seven instead of five that's actually really
really impressive and if they get their top stage if they do decide to do reusable top stage um
i think they're going to be very comparable with start-up but what i was saying is
from purely aesthetically interesting perspective right We're going to have mock-ups
of what's inside. Because these
are massive, massive vehicles. And they're not
a Polo size. Even the Blue Moon
MK2. The one
they rapid, they want
to launch sooner. I think it's smaller.
But still. So we should
soon
begin to see what it'll look like inside.
I'll be excited.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
How about this?
Is it working now?
Yes.
Yes, it is.
Yeah, it works.
Okay.
So, I was just going to say that your Shaquille O'Neal analogy, the chances of Shaquille O'Neal showing up in your bedroom at 3 a.m. increases dramatically if you're an attractive white woman.
Bruh. Bruh.
Bruh. Just bruh.
What the fuck? Man.
Where's the lock? I don't know.
Listen, that conversation eventually starts getting down
to dogs and I don't think anybody's ready for that conversation eventually starts getting down to dogs, and I don't think anybody's ready
for that conversation.
Ooh, I'm ready.
I'm so ready.
But yeah, no.
I think, like, with the...
Like, if you're going to just deliver
as many...
If you're going to deliver as many units,
like computers, into space,
you're going to go with SpaceX, I think,
because they have a higher launch frequency,
it costs less,
and it can send a lot more up there as well.
That's what I'm saying.
I think that Blue Origin's product is functional.
Like, no
two ways about it, but it's
not as...
It doesn't have
that level of scale, I think.
It doesn't have that level of scale.
It could compete at different levels, sure,
but it doesn't have that level of scale.
Jeff's busy doing other things these days.
I could be wrong, though.
I think a real good test of that will be to see
how well they can compete with Starlink.
Because that's the edge right there,
to see how much they can compete with that.
Can they send up more satellites than SpaceX?
Unlikely.
Because right now, even SpaceX is still delivering
some of their payloads too, which is hilarious.
If SpaceX is still delivering what is effectively
with Amazon's payloads, then what good is your product
right at some point you're gonna have to like switch to yours and use yours instead
unless of course you understand that using somebody else's product is actually cheaper
which is true
and just to be clear i'm not saying saying that because I like Elon or anything.
I'm saying this is just like basic economics, right?
Yeah, I mean, I agree with you right now.
What I was saying, it's just I wouldn't discount Blue Origin just yet.
I'm not discounting them.
I've yet to see.
That's what I'm saying.
I'm not discounting it.
I'm just saying at this current moment,
this is how it is.
This is the status quo.
If they can somehow change that direction, okay, great.
But realistically speaking, at this trajectory,
they are not going to be able to reach that
within, I think, at least another two to three years.
Yeah, we'll see.
I mean, the bottom line is their new Glenn,
I would say it's equivalent,
fairly equivalent to Falcon Heavy. And i think they're catching up quickly um compared to where like falcon heavy
the first launch was what 2016. second launch was several years later new glenn launched twice within
under a year so they're it's easier to catch up for the second like you know it's the second
mover advantage it's always easier to catch up if you're actually doing the right things and learning but uh yeah we'll see
spacex is definitely far ahead yeah exactly i mean just the advancements in the raptor engines man i
was at the smithsonian in washington dc a couple weeks ago and they had a couple of the raptor
engines there on display and just the the progression of the raptor i mean my god my goodness man i mean it's
it's insane uh the difference yeah it's it's crazy and then they also had a section where
they were like you know blowing up uh or talking good real good about blue origin i was like oh
that's kind of weird you know they hadn't done much as far as you know whatever and i walk out
and it was like this section of the smithson by Amazon. I was like, oh yeah, of course.
That's funny. Well, I mean, Blue Origin is delivering much bigger
engines with Vulcan and everything, right? So Blue Origin engines could be
more complex, maybe, but Raptors more
advanced, as I understand. But yeah, Blue Origin has
quite a good experience building engines.
Well, obviously, I just think that
there's a scalability problem, right?
And you just said it yourself with a
complexity aspect, right? So if you take
something like what the Raptor engine is, like, this is a
thing that's designed for
mass production, or just like
exceeding scale.
Whereas I think
that in the case of Blue Origin, this isn't
really something you can see. I think it can reach
acceptable
levels of scale to be a meaningful competitor
to SpaceX, but
it still won't...
I think they will be competitive,
but they will not
be able to beat SpaceX.
SpaceX will still be the best on all those fronts.
Agreed. That's where I see that coming. I think that a lot of people are looking at it not be able to beat spacex spacex will still be the best on all those fronts i agree that's what
that's where i see that coming i think that a lot of people are looking at it uh from a very binary
perspective um and they don't consider the additional bits that make the data whole so
they just see very small amounts and they think it's like you know just just one and zero it's
like actually 1300 ones and zeros that make up, hey, they're going to be meaningful
competitor, but not a thing that actually beats them.
Because there's always meaningful competitors and everything.
For instance, right now, there's an interesting
war, is Linux versus Microsoft.
Where Linux has this problem where they need to be able to compete against Microsoft and
then beat them so that basically all the market share goes to Linux, which is happening increasingly
over time.
And if you actually wanted to beat Microsoft right now as Linux on the consumer level,
you have to make it not just easier for consumers, but
you have to make sure that all games
run on Linux, and not just run on
Linux, but run on Linux better
than they do on Windows. If they
achieve this for almost every single
game, especially the AAA games,
Microsoft is cooked and
it's finished. That's the thing.
This is basically kind of a similar
thing, where you ask yourself,
what's the merit of competition?
You have different products. For instance, Rocket Lab,
that's not really a meaningful competitor, but
it's still something that addresses an aspect of the market.
So you have all
these different space companies that each are
supposed to... They each are meant to address
a specific part of the market, but they
don't really take away, per se,
market share from
the more established space companies.
So like, yeah.
Jeff Bezos is always trying to replace Starlink, but I don't think he'll be successful in that.
I think that you'll come up with something that's close to it.
It may even be more of a proprietary closed off system than anything else.
Not so much consumer facing.
I'm not sure what he's going to do with that.
There's a pressure
on various
companies to basically create
competition to Elon.
Mainly due to politics,
honestly. So like in America
lots of these people go like, well, you don't
want to buy something that's associated with Elon
because of your politics. And you go like, well, what if
there was a better company? they were just like you know even
take an inferior product if it meant uh you know being able to stick it to the map so to speak so
we'll see how that works out
i mean purely on government contract level i think there should always be two, just in case.
But competition-wise, I think it's good.
It's great that there's so much push for competition here.
It basically challenges both companies to be their best.
Yeah, I mean, I've said this before, like many years ago, I think your competition is good,
because then you can see how good one of the companies really is.
Because prior to that, there was no really...
Because there was no competition, there wasn't a real...
Beyond comparing it to 1970s, 1980s
NASA, you didn't really have a good reference frame. You just had
whatever today is, and whatever in the past was. So it wasn't really a fair
comparison, because of all the advancements that have taken place.
So it was a good comparison, yes.
But it wasn't really a fair comparison, I think.
So now you have an actual fair comparison.
Like, which one's better?
Even with China trying to imitate what SpaceX is doing,
you kind of see even the limits in...
Like, you see China's limits, actually.
It's a very interesting, very educating experience to see China's limits.
And you very much see them, especially when it comes to rockets.
Like, they keep trying to, like, you know, figure out how to make these things work.
And then they fail in spectacular ways that I haven't even seen before.
It's, like, very interesting.
It's actually very impressive to see and very educating, as a matter of fact, as well.
Yeah, well, also actually, I was thinking about earlier on how to relate how close Blue Origin is
compared to SpaceX. To put it in perspective, if SpaceX was two years behind Starship,
like if Starship was just two years behind,orjin would be launching to the moon instead of spacex that's how close they are like uh so that's massive like there would be
they're much closer to launching to the moon than china is for example so it does give you a sense
yeah i think a lot of i mean i think like i mean china is not really a fair comparison either
especially on that level what i just mentioned they They may have a lot of capability, they may have a lot of intelligence,
but they do not seem to have the crackheads.
So the issue is,
so the Chinese are very computational in nature,
very interesting people.
You can see this through their work ethic.
They're very locked down in a sense.
And they will work.
This is not the issue.
This is not the problem.
The problem is the out-of-the-box thinking to change something. They're very established and they focus a lot of
what is already established as opposed to creating something that's wholly new.
This is kind of like, you can see this in their language as well. They will add new things to
whatever language is, but they won't really change the language. Because there's this thing with the language where effectively it comes with this enforcement
that all of the things that are good, that needed to be said, have already been said,
and therefore you ought not to add anything because there's nothing you could ever add
in comparison to the thousands of years of wisdom that have basic,
that basically comprise of this language and the cultural system. Right.
So that is their primary weakness.
It is their greatest strength and also their greatest weakness, right?
This is why they have issues with innovate innovation,
but they're capable of like taking what has already been innovated on and then
making that scale because they can just understand how certain systems work because it like feeds in perfectly with what they are
in that they take whatever is established and just accelerate that right so that's why like
even with with rockets it's very difficult because it's very difficult to steal intelligence
well it's also to the point of like for example right now uh in a centrally controlled system you would look at
spacex and blue origin be like well we only need one spacex seems advanced let's go with that but
what if we're the person who's making that decision is wrong and actually blue origin has a better
path right because historically that's always been the case so most of the great companies came out
right like that right so actually spacex came out like that because they looked and said, well, ULA is not really doing anything exciting.
It wasn't ULA before,
it was ULA formed after, I think they merged after.
But basically no excitement, no nothing,
let's shoot for Mars.
And essentially planned thing that would be like,
no, what do we need to do,
the waste resources on this?
So I think the innovation comes a lot of times
from these Mars shots, I guess.
What do you guys think about this theory here that maybe China is afraid to fail?
The failure in that culture is taboo, so to speak.
And so do you think that plays a role at all in their advancing?
Is there fear of failure?
A little bit. I would say a little bit, yes.
But honestly, it's just that they do not have the...
That's part of it, to a small extent, but I think it's larger just because of the mindset itself.
That's why I'm saying it's not a...
You have to be able to break from conformity.
Go ahead and tell a chinese person to do that go ahead and try that out see how well that it works out for you you're
going to understand exactly why you cannot have certain types of innovation that's why like america
is super important that's why like a lot of people understand like you actually want uh like even if
it's going to be a multi-polar world you want america to like retain some of its dominance
because if it doesn't you're going to have a multipolar world, you want America to, like, retain some of its dominance, because if it doesn't,
you're going to have a really shitty, boring world.
Right? That's the idea.
Because if you have one system
that continues to be just a very
self-enforcing and very
established
and establishment-focused,
that's great. It's great for, like, scaling things.
But what it's not great for is innovation,
whereas if you have in the U.S., you basically have managed chaos. Like, that's great for scaling things. But what it's not great for is innovation. Whereas if you have in the US, you basically have managed chaos.
That's all that it is. Basically chaos.
You cannot say that the US is orderly by that.
But it's really good, actually.
There's a lot of stupid ideas that turn out to be really, really good.
And I think in the US, you can have these ideas and you can actually reach a lot of scale.
That's why a lot of these companies start there.
Because that's where you start. That's where you make all the money. Because it's very
consumerist. It's all those things. And you have these dichotomies between China and the United
States, where it's really not comparable. And so that's what I see as the primary weakness.
You can't have a space that doesn't work. It's also kind of like, I think you can see it from
this perspective. Say, Chad, for example, if someone comes to you and says, we need this much
budget, we're going to attempt to launch a rocket three times right that's what we're going to do
we might fail twice but three attempts total and then he comes back to you and says hey we fell
three times can we launch a fourth time if it's a decision essentially planned they'll be like no
look yeah three times i failed no but uh in the spacex world it was up to Musk. He's like, do I want to risk and put the final thing into the fourth just in case?
And he did.
And that was the first successful Falcon 1 launch, right?
Also, keep in mind, China will never produce an Elon Musk.
They can't.
They would jail him.
They can't.
They can't.
Like Jack Ma.
Exactly, that's what happened.
They produced him and they would jail him.
Jack Ma was basically China's Elon.
That's kind of how it used to be.
And of course, he kind of got ahead of himself
and then started doing dumb shit.
And one of the worst things that he did,
I think actually would have been the worst thing that he did,
was...
He was very entrepreneurial.
That's why what he did succeeded, because it was different.
He was able to function in this crazy-ass environment,
which is even more impressive.
You can say what you want about the man and his intelligence, but at least he was able to function in this crazy ass environment which is like even more impressive right you can say what you want about the man and his intelligence but
at least he was able to pull something off something that was very difficult to pull off
when you're inside of that system in the way that he was right so he was able to escape a certain
like you know confine right even though you know there was this interview that floats around um
you know like jack ma and elon are like both on the same stage it's like bro these people are so
fucking different from one another you cannot have them talk to each other.
You cannot have them talk about the same things
because they're fundamentally different.
And both of them will just like not, not, not Mishwell at all.
Because Elon wants to have a large technical discussions about technology.
Jack Ma doesn't give a shit about that.
He wants to have a logistics based discussion instead.
So he knows nothing about technicalities.
He just knows a lot about like logistics and how to make that work.
So if you ask him something
outside of that field
of experience, he's going to sound like a retard,
because it's true.
That's how it is. But one of the worst things
he did, if not the worst, was
when you had Ant Group,
and it was going to be the largest IPO
outside of the United States ever.
And the government shut that
shit down. The Chinese government shut that shit down. Why?
Because you talk shit about the
fucking central banks. You don't talk
shit about the Chinese central banks as
a fucking Chinese. That is retarded as fuck.
But he did it.
And that's the idea. That's the problem.
So as soon as you have a little bit of difference,
it just kind of, like, comes
through. And just because they allow you to do the thing,
like, eventually you get shut down.
But it's like, this kind of stuff in the United States
is a lot more difficult to pull off
to, like, actually shut someone down like that, you know?
Because of the political aspect of it.
And China is, like, no problem whatsoever.
It's like, immediately nuke a guy.
It's no problem.
Sure, the population may say a few things about it,
but that shit will, like, get squashed
and be forgotten about in three weeks.
Like, this is just how it goes.
In America, it's a little different.
Also, America would damage its market if they did something like that.
Because you have a reputation to uphold internationally.
And the same also goes for China, where it's like, do not defy the government.
Internally and externally is a reputation of whole.
So that was the demonstration.
What you saw, that was a demonstration of exactly that, I think.
So that's why China cannot produce an Elon,
and I think that's why also China cannot produce a SpaceX.
That's their issue, because of the way that they're built.
They're still wildly capable, do not get me wrong,
it is moronic to say that China isn't capable.
I'm just saying that they do not have the environments that will create a
United States level company success the way that they,
the way that,
you know,
the U S is able to kind of create certain types of companies.
It's just how it is.
But there are exceptions.
You know the cowboys,
baby.
There are exceptions.
When it comes to certain tools,
again, this is a thing where you're broader
on innovation.
You have
TikTok, for instance.
But that isn't wholly Chinese either.
Remember, TikTok's CEO
is Singaporean.
It's very different.
There's an
aspect of difference there.
So they, and also, I mean, algorithms themselves
were also understood to a certain extent.
They just did something that's very novel.
They were racist.
Well, on top of that, they do force them.
Dude, if you wanted like good value curation,
you go to a place where you say this is very high signal
and doesn't have very high variance.
And then we study only off this,
and that's going to be the thing that we use to build the algorithm.
Whereas if you tried to do something like that in the West,
it'd be like, why aren't you inclusive to other groups?
I don't know, because you don't want to poison the fucking data set?
That's ridiculous, right?
Yeah.
They also brute forced TikTok, and what was it, musically before, right?
So the amount of ads they run at a loss,
like there would have been noc funding a company like that here to run not much ads just for
to compete with facebook it was literally just national effort and a lot of money you got you
unlimited money when you're a priority for china right so and that right there that right there
is the example of how china wins right so you see these dichotomies that kind of pop up.
People go and they say
America's the best or China's the best.
I'm like, they are both the best at their own respective things.
And they each have asymmetries
that need to be understood.
So if you don't understand these asymmetries
then you really don't have a good understanding of both those countries
and why they actually need each other.
Right? Because they're complimentary.
I mean, TikTok is a great product.
Right? TikTok is an amazing product.
China's tech
realistically won because you can't
allow Instagram into China, right? If Instagram
was allowed in China, TikTok would die.
No, that's not true. Facebook is not allowed.
No, that's not true.
That's not true.
That's not true at all. allowed no no that's no but that's that's the reality that's not true but that's facebook that's not true at all no no no tick tock outperformed in the west
every other fucking app purely because it was better nobody has an algorithm as good as tick
tock does it is the best platform in the world next to snapchat it will it there is no realistic
competition so fucking what do you have? What's your competition?

of TikTok by Instagram called Reels?
Fucking YouTube Shorts?
Seriously? No, man.
What I'm saying is that that only
came out after a massive
foothold and a massive inability
to compete, right? Facebook could
never compete in China.
Neither could Google, neither could anybody else. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. TikTok competed on the international stage.
And it's two different apps, by the way. There's Doyen and then there's TikTok. TikTok is the
international version. So they competed on the international stage and won.
They didn't win. That's what I'm saying. They always performed at a loss. The only way they
could perform at a loss is because they could win without competition on a home turf if you allow
competition on a home turf tiktok would have never succeeded you would have never had the money
because it would have died to competition so if you got a you can't if you got no competition on
a home turf and everyone's using you and that's using that money to go compete where it's open
yeah of course you got a massive advantage i think that but that's using that money to go compete where it's open.
Yeah, of course, you've got a massive advantage.
I think that even with... But that's what I mean.
I think even with...
I would say this is unrealistic.
It would have cost more money and it would have probably slowed their growth,
but it would have worked nonetheless
because that product was always going to be successful.
You could stifle because the US became profitable.
Well, no, you can.
You can stop it if it's constantly unprofitable, right?
So that's the point.
Hold on.
Let me see.
Let me see.
Make sure I'm not talking out of my ass when TikTok outside of China became profitable.
I'll say this.
In the last 30 days, I've been on TikTok at least 50% more than I have on X.
See?
Well, that's because of Oracle now.
No, no. I of Oracle now on Central.
No, no.
I don't want to be.
It's just the algorithm here sucks so bad that I don't even want to be on here.
Yes. Yes.
Yes. I think Andre's looking, but you know,
when you make a post and it reaches like less than 10% of your followers day after day, after day, you know, at some point you're just like, okay,
let's do something different than this.
Are you talking about that came out so it came out in september 2017
merged with musically in 18 reached profitability or signs of profitability profitability around
2020 to 2021 that's that's not that three years that's oh yeah but that profitability are we
talking about like the bite dance because that's Because that's when ByteDance reached, if I'm not mistaken, especially with their TikToks, their internal shop and everything.
It's really hard because we don't see inside numbers.
But I think the easiest one is looking at Huawei.
Huawei, I think, is still negative billions because it's a public company.
It's easier.
But ByteDance is a public? Hold on. By's easier, but by dance is a public hold on.
By dance is public.
I think one second.
That's a lot of billions, what the fuck Yeah, TikTok makes a lot of money, it's great
We need to open a TikTok shop
Oh fuck, fuck's it, you piece of shit.
That's another place X has dropped the ball.
Like, we need a marketplace, and we need all those things here.
Alternate just text me, I buy way too much stuff off tiktok shop yeah but no tiktok is still like
the best platform but that's that's undeniable you know and regardless of what you want to say
and what you were trying to what like what what anybody's trying to push uh the success is because
the app is actually good not just because they had had a shit ton of money behind it. That is a contributing factor, yeah, sure.
As it always is,
but it's still the best.
And besides, those are two different things.
Like TikTok and Doyen are different things. Doyen is what started it, what basically
started it, and then the international version of it's very
different, right, because of the data handling and
all that kind of stuff, so as to basically
conform to America's politics
and requirements requirements they created
effectively this international version you know and look what look at what's happened now you get
the Americanized version of the algorithm everybody complains as to how bad it is that's what I'm
saying I think in, Chinese data handling
is very underestimated.
This is the one thing that nobody really talks about as much.
They don't talk much about Chinese software
because I think that a lot of people
are deeply, deeply frightened by it.
And they should be, realistically speaking.
They have some of the best talent in the world.
They actually end up understanding
more of the systems
that the internet at current foundationally operates on in the world, they actually end up understanding more of the systems that
the internet at current foundationally
operates on
than the very entities that created it.
They know more about the internet
than many of the creators do.
It's really bad. It's really, really bad, actually.
People should really look into that and understand
that this is a major problem.
There's infiltration everywhere.
This has been stated.
This has been publicly stated by the United States government in a committee hearing, I think.
Remember that time?
They were like, hmm, guys, I just want to let you all know, everything is seen and monitored.
seen and monitored, you probably want to use signal.
You probably want to use signal.
I'm like, did you just fucking say that?
I'm like, did you just
fucking say that?
Dude, it was like
legit sitting, I was like, wait,
what? Wow, you just
said it like that, huh? Damn.
Okay. I mean, I was already doing
that, but fuck, that is
you just said it. Once in a while
they accidentally tell the truth, man.
Like, this is so blind, like straight
up, like no filter
no nothing it's like oh yeah definitely don't do that i'm like huh so i guess it's that bad huh
i was like man that doesn't really happen that often this is gonna be really bad huh
so yeah even signal is not the best either if you want to do something
better than signal you have to go like SimpleX.
But if you wanted to kind of convert a bunch of normies just to Signal, it's easier.
At least there's more difficulty. At least there's more difficulty to get out your shit if you use Signal. It's the greatest thing you can do as a normie is use Signal.
And if you're like more trying to privacy max,
just
do simplex.
Or just do your
own internet.
This is kind of a joke, but it's
also kind of serious.
Speaking of, where the fuck is suraj i haven't seen him ran in forever i know where he's at hey have we talked about the epstein file did i miss that discussion earlier no i haven't
spoken about that i honestly don't care so much for it i got it i kind of think it's hilarious though, in some aspects.
Yeah.
That web goes real,
real,
real far and wide.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You guys,
I'm going to jump off.
I got to do a bunch of stuff tonight.
This has been fun.
Glad you're still doing these spaces, Adrian.
Please keep it up. Yeah, yeah. For the love of the game, boys.
I'll turn it to Adrian.
See you guys. See ya.
See ya, man.
Kind of like the
R-Creators disconnect sound would be really funny.
What is this?
Hang on a second.
Where's my link?
Hang on. I wonder what they're going to do with X communities.
Because a lot of that has changed over time.
Yeah, hope they don't shut it down or something uh yeah no maybe they might do it we'll
see it we'll see how it is we'll see how it is by the way for those of you who haven't already
please quote post to the space with join the conversation so more people can see that we are
in fact alive and so that the recording of it is out there for anybody who
may miss the space that can then later on listen to it either the following day or later tonight
we're also going to be doing some streaming i'm going to be rugging this in about 44 minutes
roughly about yeah we're gonna rug this in about 44 minutes and then we'll go to the noetic order
discord server i'm going to be cooking some steak then we're going to do some minecraft
live streaming like we did yesterday there's some steak, then we're going to do some Minecraft live streaming
like we did yesterday.
There's a bunch of shit that I want to do.
That was fun.
We killed the Ender Dragon yesterday.
Bro, that was an accident.
I was like, hmm, I wonder how...
Because I wanted to get...
I wanted to get Endstone for something.
I completely forgot what I wanted to get it for.
But I said, fuck, I need to get Endstone.
Where do we go to get Endstone?
The fucking dimension fuck
we gotta go in there and deal with the ender dragon
okay I guess we're gonna do that now
goes in there
looks at the thing and goes
right
so that's kind of annoying
yeah we got him though
first time I've done that
yeah I'm actually surprised how easily that guy died yeah we got him though first time I've done that yeah
I'm actually surprised how easily that guy died
yes yes
I think the slow arrows helped
yeah the arrows did a
the arrows did a lot of damage
yeah
I don't know why but the lightning just
barely did anything
we struck that thing with like
millions of volts and nothing happened.
I was like, what the hell is this shit?
Maybe he's weak to arrows more than lightning or something.
Okay, fair enough.
Well, I mean, I have a better bow now.
I'm actually going to keep upgrading that.
I want to get five on everything.
Your character is super fast.
You got like all the speed rings.
We like maxed out
your speed yesterday. That was really fun.
Yes, I constantly now have 80% speed.
It looks hilarious. Like he just zooms by really fast.
And now we have a potion so now we can get 120% if we wanted to.
Yeah, yeah, swiftness potion. That's pretty fun.
What'd you guys get your girl from
Valentine's Day I'm not in a relationship right now I mean nothing we don't
celebrate got it well happy Valentine's Day to everyone yeah we don't we don't
we don't do such things we kind like, find it's exceedingly ironic, actually. And ironically enough, she gets me things.
So I already know what I'm getting. She's going to be back in, like, a day.
She's in the capital city right now, so she's going to get me a new headset,
because my headset's been around since, like, what, fucking 2019 or some shit?
It's been around for... Actually, no, not 2019. It's, like, it's like 2023 i think roughly about so i've had this headset for quite a while now
yeah it's like basically falling apart the the microphone is like leaking uh audio
into itself it's like it's it's it's been it's been used it's been through a lot man
yeah i know it's the leaking audio and i can't do anything about it it's been used it's been through a lot man. Yes
Yeah, I can't do anything about it's a physical problem. So I'm gonna get a new headset. It's gonna be great
So yeah, we'll see how well that one performs
We gotta talk about why Blas is not in a relationship I mean he is the great Blas and he's not in a relationship like that's crazy work, bro
Like you got a view DMS blow up every day full of people wanting to be
He's just a chill dude Bro, like you got your DMs blow up every day full of people wanting to be with you. Yeah, I got a lot of DMs.
He's just a chill dude.
He's too chill, isn't he?
He's a chill guy.
He's just a chill dude, man.
Yeah.
I don't know.
It'll happen eventually.
I'm not rushing it, you know?
Yeah.
This laundry ain't gonna do itself
No, I do plan to get an optimist eventually so
Yeah, he's um
He's not gonna fuck the optimist don't even think that think that. That's not the context. That's not the context.
That's not even... He was talking about the laundry. The laundry only.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
The problem is, like, you know,
it's quite difficult to find a mate
these days, you know?
It's a whole thing.
I know that Canada's here, so it's a little more tricky.
Bro, and then not only the laundry, but then all the shirts that have to be ironed and pressed and all that.
I mean, I'm so ready.
Yeah.
But like, real talk is pretty difficult to find someone who's not completely insane.
It hasn't, I don't know if it's always been this, I don't think it has been
this difficult, but I usually hear stories, I ask somebody, like, hey, how did you guys meet?
It's like the most normal thing ever, and then I look at my own story
of how I met my significant other, I'm like, damn, my life is a movie by comparison,
what the fuck? It's like an action movie, man.
Yeah, I lived in that normal world, it was pretty cool. It's like an action movie, man. Yeah.
Yeah, I lived in that normal world.
It was pretty cool.
Yeah, it's boring as fuck, though.
Yeah.
And in fairness, my housekeeper is absolutely insane.
My current housekeeper is absolutely insane. But, you know, you just got to take it where you can get it sometimes.
Bruh. you know, you just got to take it where you can get it sometimes.
Bruh.
Is there like, is there like a, a meta layer to this that I need to unpack or is that,
is that just a face value statement?
That's a face value statement. I mean, it's just like, yeah, she's,
I was, I was going to be like, wait, what? Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
Nothing like that. It's just like the chick's just crazy,
but she does a really good job cleaning my house, so what am I going to do?
Nice.
Yeah.
Housekeepers are great.
Dude, if you have, like, a good housekeeper, that shit's awesome.
Like, I generally don't understand.
Like, if you have the money to, like, have a housekeeper and do that shit, why wouldn't you?
I don't understand why not.
You know, it doesn't make any sense.
There's a stigma around it.
It's so fucking retarded,
especially amongst the frugal types.
I'm like, bro, you are saving
not just time for yourself,
but maybe even for perhaps your significant other
and you can do a whole bunch of other things instead.
It could be really good.
Plus, you're a supporting economy.
It's good.
Everybody wins.
I'll explain it like that.
My business mentor told me like this.
I sent him a... I was so proud, man.
I was sweeping up my office one day in the middle of the night, you know,
I worked 12 hours.
I sent him a picture and his reply, I was expecting him like, good job, man.
His reply was, you idiot.
You know how to make a thousand dollars an hour and you're doing a $15 an hour
job.
It's costing you $985 an hour to sweep that floor.
The light bulb went off. I was like,
oh, yeah!
Yeah, it's true.
That's kind of sometimes how I feel about certain
types of video games. If I don't have fun doing them,
it's like, I'm sitting here and I could make a
whole bunch of money doing something else
and this is not even fun. Why am I doing it?
That's why I stopped playing R-Craters. I was like, well, this game
is just fucking shit.
Stressful.
It's like,
oh, you have to RMT to kill the R's.
Like, those things.
Like, I'm really good,
I don't like PvP. If I do PvP,
I'll go to fucking Call of Duty
or play Halo multiplayer. I don't want toP. If I do PvP, I'll go to fucking Call of Duty. Or play Halo multiplayer.
I don't want to deal with, I have to fight Climbers and social rejects.
That's just not happening.
Pretty much what it is, yeah.
It's bad enough that the social rejects are on my team when you play Halo.
It's worse when those social rejects are actually capable of shooting you.
Right?
Yeah.
And now they're saying psychologists are going to do experiments on Ark Raiders
to, like, you know, determine human behavior and stuff like that.
Human behavior is that maybe 80%, maybe 70% of humans are just evil,
and they don't know it, because they don't have the capability to act on that evil.
But if you put them in a video game, you'll see immediately whether or not they're evil.
Like, straight up, you put them in that... Like, a lot
of people are actually socially fucked, and they're psychologically fucked. And on top of that,
they have zero morality. And you can see that the moment. Like, you look at the experience, man.
70%, maybe 60% of the experience in Ark Raiders is some absolute fucking bottom of the pile,
carbon needs to be removed from the planet motherfucker that's just gonna shoot you in the back after he's like established trust.
Like imagine being such a fucking useless low skill fucking coward to do that.
That's just dumb.
I'm sorry.
And like I don't shoot back because I don't want to be put into the fucking sweaty PvP lobbiesies because i want to do like you know trials so i can get to the to get to all the points that i
want to do and then when i do shoot back fucking everybody dies because i'm actually good i don't
want to fucking do it but if i'm gonna i'm gonna do it remember like like i think two nights ago
we went in there because we wanted to do ranked placement right we just needed some points that
we get placement and then i was like you you know what? We're going to start killing
people now. Yeah, you just
had enough breaking points.
And then we just killed everybody, basically.
We just killed five. I killed
three people in one go with a fucking shotgun.
Yeah. I just went in there and killed
fucking everybody. It was great.
Because I knew they were going through that fucking door. So we
sat there on that door for like fucking five minutes
because I was like, dude, I know they're going to come through that fucking door. So we sat there on that door for like fucking five minutes. Because I was like, dude, I know they're going to come through that door.
100%.
And then they did.
And I lit them up with a shotgun.
Just like they tried with me.
Yep.
They started it.
So we just had enough.
Enough is enough type thing.
But yeah, Minecraft's much more
relaxing, although I would like to play more
Halo. It's a lot of fun.
Yeah, we're gonna go through
Minecraft for most of this year.
We're still gonna try and get potentially
we're probably gonna get
Quintino Legend and Ark.
I will try.
And then in
yeah
then in Minecraft we'll just like finish that
whole thing out and then we'll just do Halo
I think by the end of the year.
Because that's when the game comes
out. So then that's going to be my primary focus.
For games at least.
It's going to be Halo.
And I like Halo. Halo is great.
It's one of the best games in the world.
As a shooter at least.
If you wanted a good strategy game.
Like as in.
You like Minecraft.
Because you're autistic and you like block games.
And you have the manufacturer's autism. And you really have no way to channel it anywhere
fucking um just play it honestly it's really good
that facture is all about that man I'm actually starting to enjoy a little bit
starting and I remember um yeah because I actually used to play Minecraft a lot
on pocket edition meaning on my phone and so last night I was just sitting
there I was looking at some of the armor bits i was like oh i'm starting to remember how i crafted like super
zesty shit so i have like five enchantment level fucking swords and bows i'm like oh i remember
things yeah it's nice it's really nice i started crafting some really fucking crazy shit and i
was telling blize hey blize punch me it's like it gets knocked back and set on fire like loses half his health.
It's like, what the fuck was that?
Gets struck by lightning.
Yeah, he has like thorns built into his
armor now, basically. No, no, no, not thorns.
I don't have thorns. It's reflective.
Well, it's like burn view.
So there's flame aspect,
knock back, and reflective
tactic, whatever that's called.
And so if you hit me you basically
get some of your damage back and you get set on fire and you get pushed back oh damage reflect
okay i didn't think it was reflect it's kind of like that it's it's i guess that's what it is
because that's the only thing is because tactical reflectivity or some shit whatever it's called
but it's on there i was like oh i guess this is the thing which basically sends the damage back
at your face i was like okay I'll put that in there.
And I put some protection in there, because you're supposed to put protection
only. Don't go like labeled protection,
go actual protection.
Because that's a lot better than
the normal.
Because protection is
general, whereas
normal, purpose-specific
protection is going to be only
for that type of damage, which means
completely fucking worthless in every other context.
It's like with Smite,
that enchantment,
which is completely fucking useless for everything
other than killing undead.
Right.
By the way, Outa, what's up?
Not much. What about you?
You gonna play Minecraft today or no?
I'm kind of busy. I don't think I can.
Bruh.
By the way, this is a guy who got us onto this.
Yeah, I came on, I'm like, you should play this thing, I have great memories of this thing.
And then I got suddenly really busy and I couldn't do it, and then he's been fucking addicted to it since.
Listen, man.
Dude, I've always been addicted to the block game.
But now that it's also getting into the manufacturer's autism and doing a lot of things.
By the way, did you know I can fly now?
I remember.
Yeah, I know.
I know.
I came on the server for like five minutes and then saw there was a guy flying.
And then I asked the guy, how did you start flying?
And he's like, oh, Adrian made these rings.
Because there's several ways you can actually fly in the game.
So I didn't know which method you used.
Yeah, I think that's the best one.
Also, there's like speed rings.
No, it's not the best.
Yeah, it is.
No, it's not.
There's an armor you can make that's super fucking fast and it's strong
and it can make you fly. It's much
faster than the rings. Like which one?
I forgot.
Oh, for fuck's sake.
Alright, I'll figure it out.
No, so I've got...
Yesterday I hunted
rings in the end...
Not the end dimension, fuck. Also, we killed the
ender dragon. I accidentally went in there and didn't
Yeah, I saw the cake. I saw the cake. I was like, oh fuck. I can't get out
We're actually gonna have to kill this thing now
I didn't want to do it. I just wanted the fucking end stone
I didn't want to like beef with the dragon. So I was like, okay, I guess we're killing the dragon now
Yeah, yeah, the egg accidentally fell into the void.
Yeah, you fucked up the egg.
I think you can respawn it,
if I remember correctly.
Yeah, you can respawn it to get the egg back.
Oh, okay.
So we can fight the dragon for the second
time, basically.
Yeah.
I want to see if I can I want to see if I can like uh I'll see if I can solo it uh I also made like one of those infinity bows now that's pretty good so now I can like any plus
flame yeah it's really good so now we have infinite arrows so we don't need to worry about that and
it does like I'mbreaking on it and everything,
so it's going to shoot as much as possible.
I'm pretty sure I could take down the dragon now,
solo, if I wanted to.
I don't know how to get into the other dimensions.
We're going to work on that.
Also, how do we do this infuser and seed farming?
That's going to be such ass.
There's so little information on this.
You're talking about the inferium,
like the seed shit, right?
Yes, yeah. You have the infuser and you create like these fucking seeds of shit.
Yeah, and then you can automate it and then like grow diamonds and whatever,
and then you can just use the seeds to actually...
I don't know how to do any of that.
I did that years ago, but I completely forgot how to do it.
So if I, if I, I need to look at it, I need to look it up again.
Half of the problem is like whenever
I want to do a thing is like I sit
down and I do the research, but I want
to do the streaming and communicate
and I can't do that. So I just sit there
not moving, doing tons of research
and unfucking everything.
It really annoys me.
It's very much like real life, actually.
The thing is, though,
there's only so many good
mods out there.
There's a limited
number of mods. Once you
start kind of understanding them all,
once you kind of
start understanding them all, the other
mod packs should go much faster. So once you kind of figure understanding them all, the other mod packs should go much faster.
Right?
So once you kind of figure out one,
the other one should also go faster.
And also,
do you have the,
do you have the thing,
the book that's supposed to,
like the accomplishment,
the achievement books?
Not exactly.
I'm not sure what you're talking about.
One of you should have the achievement.
The books we got when we launched
into the game.
I think it was one that's built into the base.
Yeah, I tried to
find that one. I couldn't find it.
Oh! Yeah, that was in my inventory.
Elena went on and broke the fucking table
for some reason.
I killed her a bunch of times, got the book, and then I...
Oh, she was fighting him.
She kept trying to beat up Adrian, but he has, like, insane amounts of armor.
Like, I'm just standing there.
You'll basically die just by sneezing at me.
That book will basically tell you, like, what you're missing, right?
Yeah, I know.
I've already...
I've kind of, like, taken the responsibility of of this so I just have the book in my inventory
and I just go through random tasks and I just like check them
off randomly
yeah if you look
at like what that book tells
then that will kind of give you a
guidance about like what to do
and also you can see what mod it's from
right did you know
that
uh And also you can see what mod it's from. Right? Did you know that?
So each item, you can see what mod it's from.
It's like the little blue thing.
Like when you hover over something,
it'll give you like a little blue text that's like cyclic or inferior or something else.
And that's the mod it's from.
So you can go on YouTube and that's the mod it's from so you can go on
youtube and specifically research the mod hmm yeah we'll look to that
there's not enough guides but there's a lot of youtube videos yeah i'm glad i tried sky factor it's pretty cool
yeah you guys should try crazy craft unfortunately though it doesn't exist anymore
yeah i'm like here's the thing i'm probably just gonna like
100 i'm gonna 100 that mod and that's gonna be it for me I'm probably just going to 100% that mod, and that's going to be it for me.
I'm not going to lie to you.
Alright.
And once you've 100% it, you can do a lot of fun shit.
Think about building a cloud base
based in the sky.
That'd be the next thing.
Yeah, we need to do proper base design.
Our fucking...
One of the guys who's regularly playing with us now,
Hoboblin, not sure what
his Discord name is, but that guy's like
he's been building
Yeah, I love him now.
He's been building radically shit.
Just like, here's a power plant
and I'm actually just going to build a massive structure on top
of it for no fucking reason, just for aesthetic purposes.
I'm like, okay, this is
completely unnecessary, but it looks great.
Yeah, the design of it's good.
Yeah, I guess we need to have
him do the base design. He might know a whole bunch more.
He knows a lot.
Oh, and I figured out what the lag was.
I knew it was the spawner.
It was the spawner. Specifically,
what the issue was is because none of the items
were being piped out. They kind of just sat there and not being collected. So what ended up happening was that there were like basically endless items. Oh, we also need to make more mob spawners, I think, because we have one that's doing blaze now. We have a blaze masher.
He actually messaged me, the elephant guy.
He said, the mob grinder isn't spawning mobs because the blazes create light,
which stops the mobs from spawning in that room nearby.
Yes.
So we can either...
Yeah, I mean, we can make another mob spawner, pretty much.
Also, is it size limited?
I don't think so.
I'm pretty sure you can scale it up.
But in the video, the guy had multiple of them stacked on top of each other like modules.
So that's how he was doing it.
Send me that video.
Okay.
We all know what that means, guys.
We'll have to blow up some more chickens.
Yeah, because you got to get the rotten egg from the chicken
in order to curse the ground to get all these monsters on that ground.
You feed the chickens cursed feed, and then they just explode,
and then they find the rotten egg.
And then you take the rotten egg, and you put it on the ground,
and it turns the ground into cursed ground, which then...
Then there's also, I guess, sublime ground,
but I have no idea if I can make that.
I didn't know that existed. Yes, it does exist did you not like go through
the inventory settings and just like
through the item
things and saw a big old
egg there's a big old egg
there and I'm like ooh that looks shiny I want it
I don't know what it does but I want it
look at it and it goes ah it makes sublime earth
how do you make it no instructions
fuck
okay I'm gonna figure that out no no don't figure that out it's completely unnecessary Look at it, and it goes, ah, make sublime earth. How do you make it? No instructions. Okay.
Okay, I'm going to figure that out.
No, no, no, don't figure that out.
It's completely unnecessary.
What we need to figure out is how to do seeds,
specifically how to farm. So, like, you can grow diamonds, right?
Yep.
So you need to figure out how to do things like that.
So we'll start with that, basically.
Try to figure out how to do that, how to build a thing,
and how to automate that.
So you're going to do grow diamonds, basically.
So if you could do that, that would be great.
Yep. I sent you the updated video also,
one I've been working on.
Okay.
We could probably put that out as YouTube shorts.
Yeah.
What is this shit? Feeling very basic bitch today.
Might I eat this?
Might I make like a steak or might I eat frozen stuff?
I'm not sure.
I'm contemplating on this right now.
I'll grab a steak today.
Yeah, I'm probably just going to make a steak.
I sent a video about it.
Where'd you send it?
Okay.
Signal.
Space.
Okay.
Mystical agriculture.
Okay, I'll take a look at that too.
That'll be good.
Yeah, that'd be nice, because then maybe we can get with the roses on farm yep that would be nice
wait you can i'm not sure if you can farm with the roses in fact you'll have to look that up
that's not what we want we want to farm diamonds but we can also do that as well
because we need both of that as well we need to be able to get more of that we get more
personalized obsidian and we get more personalized obsidian,
and we need to get more personalized obsidian,
and turn it into more swords and shit,
so I can do more enchants.
Yeah.
Were you in the server just any time, at any point,
or did you not look at that yet?
Who are you asking?
Any of you.
Have you seen the experience?
Have you seen that experience tank? No
Because I want to know how much is in it because I'm gonna need that for enchanting later. I think I was empty
I think it was empty when I check
I think I just saw I think I saw it, but I don't I didn't have a proper look at it, but it looked empty
It was empty yesterday until we fixed it.
Was it green?
I already know what it's supposed to look like when it's full.
Okay, we're going to have to like...
Someone probably took all the XP.
Yep.
Well, yeah.
But we need more XP.
So what we're going to do is,
I think that mob spawner, we're going to convert it back
to a normal mob spawner and then attach...
Like...
Make a separate one for blazes.
Yeah.
Like, it's a great spawner. It works.
We added extra fans.
One thing is for sure, we are not running out of
blaze powder or rods anytime.
We have, like, stack of
2,000 now.
You bet shit.
We can make lots of speed potions and shit.
It's going to be fun.
Check on that.
Also going to send you a link to that video. Let's see.
I saw something funny earlier.
Modders have managed to compress GTA 5 from 120 gigabytes down to 2.5 gigabytes.
It looks hilarious.
It's like blocky.
Yeah.
Always impressed me how that game was able to run on like a PS3 and then it scaled up to PS4, PS5.
Like it's crazy.
They did a really good job with it.
Also, I saw TeamSpeak is seeing, like,
a large influx of users,
mostly thanks to, like, Discord's new developments
with their identity requirements.
Only for, yeah, only for, like Only for certain features like NSFW.
It is an 18-point content, yeah.
And they said your data is safe with us, right?
They won't leak anything.
But, however, a few months ago, they suffered this data breach,
which did this very thing.
So it's kind of a...
Well, they're using a different service now.
They're using a different service now. They're using a different service now.
I think they're using Persona.
So that's going to be better now.
And again, like, this is not...
This doesn't affect us
because we don't have any of those things in our server.
We don't have an SFW.
We basically don't even tolerate that.
We just ban anybody who tries to do that.
No, we don't do that either.
We don't do that either. We don't do even tolerate that. We just ban anybody who tries to do that. No, we don't do that either. We don't do that either. We don't do that.
We do spaces and then we just do
normal VC chat. Outside of that,
we don't do that anymore because it's kind of over.
Yeah.
It's also boring.
Yeah.
It will change
basically nothing for us.
Yeah, for us. Yeah, for us, for us.
But I saw something interesting, though.
Like, if you're in the UK and you connect to this age verification thing,
there's a disclaimer that pops up that says,
if you're located in the UK, you may be part of an experiment
where instead of their age verification data never leaving their phone
or being locally stored, it will actually now leave their phone.
So people are kind of up in arms about that yeah which also again does not like that's just doesn't affect us
yeah it's kind of meaningless in some form
it's the thing it's funny because i'm like scrolling and the first thing i see is like this video game from
2005 which had this uh has this uh kind of game mechanic with swords and how you can fly around
really really good um and like below that it's like here join my discord servers because people
people are using it obviously because this is This is mainly just for these big...
It's mainly for like there's...
I think there should be kind of a crackdown
to some of this NSFW shit, because it's really annoying.
But at the same time, I think it's very unnecessary.
At the other end of that spectrum,
I think in general, if this expands,
we're just going to look for a replacement
to Discord at some point.
Yeah, like TeamSpeak is getting a lot of user traction now.
It's dogshit. It's dogshit.
TeamSpeak is dogshit. Element is horse shit.
Stout is absolutely gay and retarded.
All of them are stupid.
Right now what we're doing is, this is 2016, is microsoft and linux hasn't really caught up yet
so we're waiting for the linux alternative to actually get better outside of that we're just
going to work with what we get and that's going to be the rub of the situation and i don't think
any of us need to concern ourselves with anything outside of that yet there's like people trying to
make clones of it that are all deeply insecure and all fucking vibe coded slop none of it fucking
works all of it is dogshit.
And it's going to have even worse breaches associated with it than anything that Discord could ever even bear to top.
So, like, bruh.
Yo, what is this?
The nuclear glass.
This is so funny.
Hmm.
All right.
I'm in the server.
I'm checking the XP tab thing.
There's only a tiny bit of XP in here.
It's like less than a quarter full.
Okay.
Okay, that could probably make like a...
Could probably upgrade a shield.
I don't know.
We'll see.
At least the lag's gone.
We had horrible lag before we fixed all the mob spawner.
I'm gonna take out the fucking...
I'm gonna take out the blaze thing.
Take it out and then
recurse the ground.
No, you don't need to recurse the ground.
Oh, okay.
What are you talking about? The ground's already cursed.
Okay, fair enough.
Oh my god, this is horrifying.
I'm seeing the compressed GTA.
Yeah, you see it?
Yeah, yeah. 2.5 gigabytes down
from 120 gigabytes. It's like? Yeah, yeah. 2.5 gigabytes down from 120 gigabytes.
It's like
2005 graphics, basically.
Or less.
Dude, this is
absolutely dog shit.
Running at like three frames.
It's amazing, though. It's just amazing they could actually
do that, like compress that kind of a game down to that size.
But yeah, it looks like shit.
Damn.
But they have to like program the hood out of the car
because that's its own element.
So you have basically a hoodless car cause that creates deformities,
which is how you notice that damages happened.
Yeah.
So they've taken,
they've taken out all of the damage potentials.
What the fuck?
Why?
Oh my God.
This is so,
this is just dumb.
Why would it, This is just dumb. This is just dumb.
Dumb, but it's a
game. It's a thing.
I guess it's just more proof of concept than anything.
This is just stupid. I have no idea why anyone
would do this.
Yeah. I don't know.
Storage space is going to become difficult, I guess.
No, this is just stupid. This is just actually retarded.
I don't know why anybody does this.
I guess it's funny, but this is just stupid.
Like, putting things into rust, but this is just stupid like putting putting rust
putting things into rust
or putting
like doom
into everything
the pdfs
like that's fun that makes sense
but this shit is just
stupid
this is just stupid
I don't like this. This is just dumb.
That's not even funny.
Like, bruh.
What is this?
Today
the HHS
Doge team open-sourced
the largest Medicaid
data set in apartment history.
This data set contains aggregated provider level claims data for a specific billing code over time.
For example, using this data set, it would have been possible to easily detect the large-scale autism diagnosis fraud seen in Minnesota.
Download the data yourself. The fucking document is
the 10 gigabyte Excel doc
with 300 million rows.
What?
That's crazy.
300 million rows.
Amazing.
Amazing.
I wonder what they're going to dig up
out of that.
What is this? I see lots of Japanese stuff on my timeline.
I'm seeing lots of Japanese stuff on my timeline.
I can go for some Japanese steak.
Wagyu.
A5 Wagyu, pal.
Good. Yeah, they're really good.
I'm just looking at this. This is so fucking retarded, it's actually amazing. you
the taskbook i think that's the checklist, right?
Found it.
I guess, is it? Where was it?
In the computer.
Okay, leave it there.
Oh, by the way, Ada, a small problem.
The computer started to turn grey.
I don't know why it did this.
Power supply, everything is there, just grey one day. Items still work, everything crafting grid, but it's
gray. I think, yeah,
I saw that. I think someone colored it
gray.
You can color things
gray
in the game.
Right? If you have, like, an item.
That explains it, because I saw it in real time
happening. Somebody just did that. I was like, ugh.
Yeah, no, the computer's not broken.
It's just some guy decided to color gray for some reason.
I guess to troll us?
I don't know.
It's a good troll, because we were confused as fuck.
Yeah, I did some research, and the AI was completely fucking retarded.
Yep. yeah I did some research and the AI was completely fucking retarded yep what happened to our base?
there's a giant hole here, what the fuck?
what?
it's like a creeper came into the enchanting area
and blew half the bookshelves away
what?
yeah bro
like half of the bookshelves are gone
do you have any idea Yeah, bro. Like, half of the bookshelves are gone.
Do you have any idea... Okay, dude, just make more crystallized obsidian.
Just keep making that. I'm gonna need a lot of that, actually.
Okay, Roger. Do you want me to repair the bookshelves, too?
No, I'm gonna do that, because it requires a special kind of bookshelves.
Why couldn't they just fucking...
It looks like a creeper exploded there.
Why? How did a creep...
No fucking idea.
It was just there.
Oh my god.
I'm making more crystallized
Are one of the black bookshelves still there?
Two of them
Black, do they look black?
Yeah
Two of them black, the rest missing
Those are important
Go into the other base.
Okay.
Check that out.
See if the bookshelves are there.
That sounds like it was replaced.
I don't know.
It's like a giant hole in the fucking base.
If not, just make more bookshelves.
Okay.
Yeah, there's no bookshelves here,
so they're definitely
been exploded or lost somewhere.
Yeah, so I'll deal with that.
You keep making more crystallized obsidian.
I'll need that.
Okay.
Like, we have to figure out
how to do the diamond seed farm thing.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's going to be that.
And you're going to need to figure out
how to make more,
like, just make more crystallized obsidian.'s all i need right now all right sounds ridiculous that's very little connected to it but that's definitely a need
i'm planning something okay
and i'm going to take that spawner out of there. I'm going to cook some steak in a little bit,
so I can actually sit down and game.
And we're probably going to game a little early today,
because that's actually what I want to be doing.
And yeah.
Okay.
Let's play it with Amber first.
Okay.
And I think it's also time we move it into the Discord server.
So, everyone, we're going to rug this space here.
And we're going to go to the Discord server today.
Down below is the link.
Go join that if you haven't already.
And yeah, I'll see you all again next week.
See you then. Bye-bye. Thank you.
