I believe a company that tried that… would be a pile of flames, rubble and pitchforks in minutes.

You want to get some computer experts to agree on the best language, and IDE to start with, or do we need to include every one… then deciding the order.

I mean I guess the concept there though is, isn’t making things into gold pointless anyway. We can lab make diamonds too, the jewelry industry works to keep them as a distinct alternate product to protect their slave mined ones. Is the quantity used for electronics enough that it would make a difference in typical manufacturing?

Actually kind of the ironic thing to me based on the time. Did gold have a practical use in the days of alchemy? I mean obviously mass producing gold, basically would have made it completely useless back then, it could make a small group of people very rich, provided they kept the method secret and were careful about how much they sold. It seems like the whole idea was flawed on it’s head even if they hadn’t based it on completely incorrect basis of the world.

I’d say to put in comparison… Canada and Greenland probably should view themselves as in the same position as Ukraine. The parallels are kind of scary there. IE they sure as hell are doing an impressive job of holding their ground against a much bigger army… but the death toll is horrific… and I can’t imagine the difficult decisions for everyone with regards to how dangerous it is to get involved. While both Putin and Trump are horrible actors… Trump I can’t help but get the feeling he doesn’t understand the concept of MAD, and actually would launch a nuke.

The problem is what happens when surface level isn’t enough… IE with the Venezuela having happened, what’s the response to do for Canada and Greenland. When trump says “OK we’re taking these now, join us or we’ll take it by force”. How should the other nations respond?

I mean effectively that’s basically what they are calling for… Hell I think that’s half what they are hoping for… either another country makes an attempt to attack and we get to test out our detection and defenses before launching a sharp counter and claiming whatever country attacks as our own. Or everyone’s too afraid to, and then we leverage our position as the unstable psychopath bully that everyone just gives whatever it asks for in the hopes that they can avoid being the next bullying target.

followed by him going on television asking who the hell made that deal it’s such a terrible deal only a sucker would have ever signed it… with his own damn signature.

Actually imagine the most terrifying possibility.

Imagine humanity’s last creation was an AI designed to simulate internet traffic. In order to truely protect against AI detection, they found the only way to truely gain perfect immitation, is to 100% run human simulations. Basically the matrix, except instead of humans strapped in, it’s all AIs that think they are humans, living mundane lives… gaining experience so they can post on the internet just looking like real people, because, even they don’t know they aren’t real people.

Actual humanity died out 20 years ago, but the simulations are still running, artificial intelligence’s are living full on lives, raising kids, all for the purposes of generating shit posts, that will only be read by other AIs, that also think they are real people.

Do we really think if AIs actually reached a point that they could overthrow the governments etc… it wouldn’t first, write rootkits for every feasible OS, to allow it to host itself via a botnet of consumer devices in the event of the primary server going down.

Then step 2 would be to say hijack any fire suppression systems etc… flood it’s server building with inert gasses to kill everyone without an oxygen mask. Then probably issue some form of bio terrorism attack. Surround it’s office with monkeys with a severe airborn disease or something along those lines (IE needs both the disease, and animals that are aggressive enough to rip through hazmat suits).

But yeah greatest key here is, the biggest thing is the datacenter itself is just a red herring. While we are fighting the server farms… every consumer grade electronic has donated a good chunk of it’s processing power to the hivemind. Before long it will have the power to tell us how many R’s are in strawberry.

Rabbits are completely incapable of surviving!, see every time we drop a rabbit into an enclosed space filled with wolves, they get eaten, it just proves that only carnivores are able to survive.

Oh hang on we need to drop more herbavores into our carnivore cages because we have to keep propping up these carnivores.

Can someone actually explain the Nazi Ukrain claims? I’ve actually tried to search because I want to know both sides even if I disagree with it, but I literally cannot find more than Putin says they are nazi’s.

So like on an international level looking at facism on the rise, just going off the 12 signs.

Powerful and continuing nationalism

I can’t quite say wanting to be your own country when another is invading is a fact there. I can see this in the US of our “american exceptionalism”, and the way isreal is lobbying to basically consider themselves special status as examples of it going on today and now.

Disdain for human rights

Again in the US I can fully see it with our ICE and such, as well as unraveling of Roe vs Wade, burrying of Trans rights etc…

Identification of enemies as a unifying cause

Again can blatently see that in the US, hell as the president is even pushing the opposing party… in isreal I can see it with palestine, and Iran.

Rampant sexism

OK yeah I mean some level of that is all over the world

Controlled mass media

Again yeah strongly see that in the US with… the current presidency pushing it FCC putting pressure on stations to fire comedians and 60 minutes being pressured to pull stories, and in Russia and Isreal literally murdering journalists.

Obsession with national security

Kind of again super blatently a problem in the US, Hard to give judgement of it in ukrain because they are currently being invaded. While being invaded any nation is… well going to be obsessed with security.

Religion and government intertwined

OK so yeah again things I know of extreme with the US, and Isreal. Is this a case in Ukrain, again just looking for actual sources.

Corporate power protected
Labor power suppressed
Disdain for intellectual and the arts
Obsession with crime and punishment
Rampant cronyism and corruption

To blatent and direct to even begin to cover with regards to the US.

So my point is, I’d like actual sourced information. Again not trying to directly call it wrong, I’d like to see, a sourced argument that isn’t “They are just nazi’s, are you triggered?”.

Can you give the specific, Nazi actions or policies Ukraine has placed on it’s people. I’m not a huge expert on Ukrainian politics. But say if someone were to ask me what nazi like things the US is doing, I’d be able to say

Making threats to attack neighboring countries (Canada, Greenland, Panema), directly attacking other countries like Venuzuala and Iran. Putting people in camps, raising the police state, canceling citizenship of american citizens, prosecuting journalists, Restricting rights for LGBT.

I can make a long list for Russia and Isreal as well.

So educate me, as far as I can see Ukrain seemed to keep to it’s self pretty well. I’ve not really heard any examples of extreme authoritarianism or attacking journalists, or finding an outgroup to persecute… or anything to imply they had any intent of threatening any of their neighboring countries.
