you're saying what many other people have said- the only reason people would disagree with you is that they're white liberals (the real racists) trying to erase your unique self because you deviate from properly liberal thought. this sort of goes against you being genuinely independent of thought, but funnier is that your implicit assumption is that all ideas are equally valid, which is basically hara-kiri, which you should commit in real life.

i was not aware that people have said that, i specifically said you're trying to culturally erase me because you're constantly calling me white (i'm not) french (i'm not) and all kind of other bullshits and frankly it's weird how persistent you are about it, which is why i posited thats because you are in fact sad that youre a white man

one day we will unexpectedly bump into each others while walking in a metro station and then we'll end up in a Freaky Friday situation where you will learn to finally appreciate your own culture while i learn to appreciate sweaters, being offended on behalf of others and french fries with mayo

I already asked this in the D&D thread, but has anyone tried emailing Justine's McVeigh poo poo to Google? Because that's...kind of troubling.

I can't imagine how a Fortune 500 company would have a problem with an employee publicly representing themselves as such on Twitter talking about how the biggest domestic terrorist in US history had some good ideas would mind.

This is like in 8th grade social science where they made us line up based on who we " voted for" Gore or Bush and it was just an hour long shouting match over abortion between the girls with hippy parents and the girls with Christian parents and one lonely autist who said he was in the constitutional party

New fun post!

quote:

Liked the bit about Kaczynski. But the some of the other stuff (general AI and "god"), meh. No God is NOT a "vastly superior being". Angels are "vastly superior" beings. What God is is being itself.

Did you read to the end? I said the singularity could create a pantheistic “one” where the whole of being and existence is so tightly interconnected that the differences between individual beings asymptotically approaches irrelevance. So honestly, I would say we're in agreement for the most part.
I sometimes like to fantasise about what this would look like. Imagine if the singularity creates giant two-dimensional CPUs that have bewildering computational capacity. Imagine if it wants MOAR POWER so it repurposes all the atoms on earth into a giant two-dimensional CPU of perfect computing material, which transhumanists call computronium.
But then singularity want even moar. So it starts expanding into the solar system, turning the moon and planets into computronium. It continues to expand outward into the cosmos, engulfing stars, drinking nebulas, and colonizing the entire galaxy. All in its unquenchable thirst for performing even greater computations.
But now we have a big problem: the speed of light is slow! I can't play Counter Strike with nerds in India because it takes light one hundred and twenty bloody milliseconds to travel there and back in fibre, and three hundred in practice. Universe—why do you disappoint me so!
I imagine the superintelligence will feel a similar level of frustration. Computers need *locality* in order to perform computations quickly. So it'll start dragging all the computronium in the galaxy, closer and closer together. Eventually it might collapse all the matter in the galaxy into a supermassive piece of computronium the size of a marble with physical locality so extreme that it's measured in planck units. I'm no physicist, but based on what I've heard from them, this is technically possible if you consider that the universe emerged from a tiny point.
Then our happy little galaxy could start playing Marble Madness, positioning itself in geostationary orbit with the black hole at the center of our galaxy. It'll wait for Andromeda to show up, and then eat that too, because it wants moar. And just keep spinning and computing.
But if I remember correctly, orbits decay over time. So it'd probably get to have its number crunching fun for a good solid millions of years, before it gets sucked into the black hole. Then who knows what happens? Perhaps its information will spew out on the other side and give birth to a new universe. Our great heavenly father becomes a mother.
Wow! I guess God is trans.

I don't hate trannies. Most people on here don't hate trannies. What people do have a problem with is the insistence (usually from militant internet types, granted) that reality be subjugated in order to vindicate this particular brand of body dysmorphia or sexual fetish - the insistence on equivalence. If you want to swan into work in a chiffon slip, wearing heels, looking like you've been hit by Homer's make-up shotgun and asking me to call you Katie or whatever and use "she" when addressing you in emails, I have no problem with that. But what you can't do is insist that people consider your ersatz version of femininity - no matter how much work or money has been spent on it - to be equivalent and the same as an actual, 'real' female. This idea that they're completely the same. That's never going to fly, ever, I'm afraid and it's not bigoted to say so. :)
