If I could have something magical: I’d like to be able to accelerate my thinking so I can have as long as I want to think things through

If it’s gotta be real: easier to use memory, I feel like I have no idea what’s going on bc I forget shit, but it’s not forgotten I just didn’t remember that memory at the right time even though I had it…

Talking to people hasn’t been going well lately

That is some slapstick ass 3-stooges energy

Bc those who deserve it get some or enough to not want more

Choose nixos

2 birds 1 stone

PC gamers moving to console? What’s next the existing consoles adopting keyboard+mouse?..

There is no downside to this

Absolutely DASHING

It’ll take me too long to find an example I’d stand behind so I’d rather comment a condition

Miles is suffering??

Can you imagine how much shit the station computer has to put up with?

AIs make the same typos that humans do bc they were trained on human writing.

Garbage in garbage out

I feel like there are billionaires in the world who manage to be rich without damaging society (or being the society).

If there’s one example then there’s no excuse for all the others to behave the way they do…

If all billionaires are the same then it’s past time to question why we have to put up with them

I liked them the same, but I could name more episodes that I enjoyed and Voyager than DS9

I’ll die on the hill that ds9 wasn’t bad. It wasn’t the best, lowest of the 4… but if ds9 was the worst and it’s still good than the other shows are great

And when it’s not any of those cases then that person has a horrible pattern of behavior. I’ve learned this lesson way too hard.

He has one, he just doesn’t sit in it

First of all I just want to say that I completely agree with all of the technical things you talked about in his question but I think you kind of miss his question.

OP doesn’t wanna be on SS7 (the thing that gives you your phone number), neither do I. I’ve just come to the conclusion that when it comes to infrastructure and paying for your goods SS7 is the only realistic option I have.

There is no distributed communication network anyone can just connect to. And the dream of leaving WiFi access points open for free (or for some kinda crypto-pay, e.g SkyNet) is just a dream, individuals have to invest in it and nobody wants to or take responsibility for it.

Here are some rules:

1. Somebody* has to build the radios and computers that our phones connect to and has to build them all over the world (*doesn’t have to be an individual, could be a company or government)
2. You gotta pay to use it (whether it’s with a billing account where they have your full name and house address, or crypto)
3. It’s gotta be the easiest option

If we can come with a solution that fits these rules we can do away with the SS7 cellular protocol and have a truly anonymous network.

“You, higher mammal. Can you read?”

Can we get one with impedance?

I have no fear of implementing anything I’m asked to in typescript go rust java c# f# or nix… They’re all the same tool just kinda different in some places.

Genuinely why wouldn’t this work? If a cluster of nanobots grey goo-s across your brain matter slowly over the course of 10 years, perfectly replacing each individual neuron with themselves how would you ever know?

*Like besides knowing that you agreed to the procedure

That’s called termux… or am I not getting the nature of termux
