I do wonder if the era of "this rich guy is a loving moron but nobody wants to admit it" is coming to an end, what with all the high profile rich people that turn out to be loving morons because of enormous public fuckups, like the crypto fraud exploding messily, or a submarine imploding messily, or whatever the chicken fried gently caress is happening at Twitter now. (The act of posting to the site was a commonly used verb! Most CEOs would sell their left leg for that kind of mindshare! And he threw it all away and ran off all the users and advertisers so he could appeal to a fascist who calls himself "catturd2," who hates him now anyway!)

I mean, we're talking about a group of people that by definition aren't content with $10M or $100M and keep grinding away trying to get some kind of human suffering high score, so as a general rule there are no compassionate/smart rich people, its pretty much just solipsistic animals at the top.

Every part of the future will resemble what it looks like today, just moreso. Our politics, our economy, our culture? The parts you hate about any of them are just going to become bigger, louder and harder to ignore. When’s the last time you saw refreshingly less advertising in a public space than you’d noticed there before? It’s like that, but for everything that sucks about our society. History is a ratchet, and it never goes back.

Party Boat posted:I never watched anything with Conover but heard some ads for Adam Ruins Everything years ago and took an irrational dislike to his delivery style which meant I wrote him off as just a loudmouth. Then recently he was a guest on a podcast discussing the SAG strikes and realised he's a smart and funny guy. Sorry Adam! This is almost exactly my own experience. They could have probably workshopped their marketing for that show a bit more, huh?

Agents are GO! posted:The funniest thing about Less Wrong is how many people I've witnessed independently having the exact same walking away point: the dust-in-the-eye thought experiment. This is lame because they basically stole the concept of The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas but somehow made it about numbers instead of the morality of it all.

They don’t get paid for dog control, but you have to cull them occasionally otherwise your horse knocks you off and runs the gently caress away (speaking of animal control, oy!). Every loving forest, a pack of them. Anyway, burning them is very effective. Anyway, it’s all basic, this is no League of Legends Quotey fucked around with this message at 03:46 on Oct 13, 2023 |
