  • What is Lumon actually trying to do? Cold Harbor is apparently about fully getting rid of past emotions when severed… But isn’t that how severance worked in the first place??

    I would say, that their environment is sooo aseptic at the severance level this is an indication that it doesn’t work as well as they would have expected. This explain this strange work environment where emotions of innies are controlled by bizarre mechanisms. I would say this Cold Harbor thing is a way for Lumon to really have a more reliable severance effect. And people will be able to be severed externally.

    Also the fact that the Egon father goes to see his innie daughter and appears to prefer her innie might indicates he would like to replace his outie daughter by her innie at some point. Also an indication IMO that Lumon expect to severe people externally.

    And regarding the amount of revelation we had during this season was satisfying to me. We already learned a lot while still keeping a lot of things confusing. We learned about the origin of Lumon, the cult of Kier and how they take children to work for them.

    Depends on how you look at things.

    Compare your life to the life of people 1 century ago, 2 centuries ago, etc…

    News, social networks focus on shit. Lot of things improve. But news only focus on what is going wrong.

    Lot if things are shit, but lot other things aren’t.



  • I buikt a minimal bot some time ago on reddit. It was very simple. It reacted with predefined response when it detected specific terms.

    While it was mostly made for a joke. I was surprised how efficient this was. I received mostly positive return as well as some infuriating responses. Still this was effective.

    The current platform appears to actively prefer the russian bot presence. So an option might be to provide a FOSS bot maker that anyone could easily use that will also have the property to be easy to not be detected immediately as a bot.

    Then these bots should both counter russian bots and promote this bot creation tool or even platform (bit a platform would certainly be easier to detect and block).

    But by doing so, the dead Internet is closer than ever.

    Code: https://git.esy.fun/yogsototh/redbot

    See stack.yaml file for the env var to set. If you run it it should start a web interface. And you can create new bots from there.

    UK - The office. If you are familiar with the US version, and like a little bit more spices. You will love the UK version. Some scenes would be impossible to be seen in US TV IMO. The UK version has my preference.

    UK - Utopia. This one is a cult series for the people that appreciated it. It was pre-covid and IMO this is a masterpiece. I highly suggest to watch the correct version with the correct image ratio and not watch the cropped version on most stream providers. Unfortunately the last season was cancelled. But this should be a must watch IMO.

    France - Guyane. Marvelous picture, and discovered an aspect of this world I didn’t have any clue about. Also I loved how different it felt from US series in general.
