I've been working on some video content ever since this post. It's processing now, and I've got screenshots or whatever to prove that I didn't do any editing aside from the editing that is in the video but I don't really care if you believe how it was made it rules regardless. I'm going to upload it to a google drive account and then allow the people whose DM histories appear in it to decide if they'd like those segments cut out - but otherwise it's in real time.

It's roughly an hour long, which is the perfect length for the first in the series of guest lectures Paradine is providing for the Institute of Special Technologies. I had a mic recording some voiceover which didn't get picked up by shadowplay but last time I tried this I recorded the mic and audio but the wrong monitor, so I'll call it good and let's just say it's a little more elegant without the audio. I can always dub commentary in later.

I'm interested in posting it now that all five people have joined using the link. I'm curious as to what they'll make of it.

OP were you the same guy who posted what he was convinced was a brain melting basilisk image in GBS a few years back? because you post pretty similar. In that case I have to tell you I'm sorry that your image didn't kill anybody but I appreciate you pointing me in the direction of David Langford's stories

Was it the one from the monkey AGI trials? That one wasn't lethal to humans. It was more of a mildly unpleasant proof of concept.

The entire concept / goal of creating an input that is capable of instantly rendering an individual catatonic or killing outright may be possible, but it's completely unnecessary. There are far more effective and reliable ways to accomplish those sorts of things, like this example from an unfinished movie script:

[sorry, even though other people have come up with this concept and posted about it on the internet we still consider discussing this particular thing you can do with drones and [REDACTED] to be an act of stochastic [REDACTED] and have therefore deleted it with an explanation as to why]

so yes, it is the issue of renarcotization . the real question is, can you infect somebody with an infohazard/infobenefit that appears at first glance, and possibly for months or years, to have been completely harmless? then it strikes in waves, either helping the infected individual or slowly driving them insane as they begin to forget what the initial source was.

Here's a great example:

Fair enough. Fireballs may be tricky but magic is definitely possible, and in the visible and holy poo poo what the gently caress was that kind of sense not in the Life Changing Magic of Sucking Your Own Dick sense. Somebody left the gatehouse discord, so I'll invite you if you'd like. Would you like to buy yourself platinum or would you like me to give you a gift cert for it so we can discuss this further in DMs? I strongly recommend starting with Technomancy, since it can be easily done from home.

These are transmissible. Where do you think I got them? The thread linked to in the OP. They cured some other brainworms I had, though, so it's more of a snakes and gophers situation. Now I've just got Caddyshack, but I'm snake-free.
