Christ. I just had a nightmare akin to generative AI content
  • I forgot to mention that at several points, it seemed that I woke up from this hallucination and just stared at the wall in the bedroom with no thoughts whatsoever, then resumed the hallucination. Sometimes it left off where I was at and other times it skipped into the future where something already happened. In either case, there was a cache of sorts that retained the information thus far before it got interrupted.

  • Christ. I just had a nightmare akin to generative AI content

    At first things made some sense. I was doing anything I wanted. It was basically a lucid dream. It was some weird resort or casino. But then quickly, as the hallucination (it was hypnagogia, not a dream), I start noticing weird anomalies. Like faces getting somewhat distorted, people’s speech being random word salads (not garbled gibberish, but just random strings of words that don’t make any sense yet people’s visible behavior indicate everything is normal). Then suddenly I realize all that events that had happened thus far is happening again but in reverse order. Although I still had autonomy to move on my own, I was compelled the backtrack through previous locations.

    One location was some kind of flight simulator. The first time the aircraft crashed or some sort which released toxic simulated fumes. I didn’t think too much but when things reoccurred the second time, I started asking if this was supposed to happen and whether I can stop holding my breath. The people I was encountering again at the location with the flight simulator cubicle were not happy and began getting agitated, still spitting word salads, and walking menacingly towards me.

    I start feeling this awful, painful, ambient static electric shock going through my body. Suddenly my sister barges into the room in the middle of the repeating hallucination. She starts yelling, and I suddenly became even more disturbed because I didn’t remember her being there at the start of the hallucination and she was the only one speaking coherently seemingly defying the logic of the world I’m in.

    She was confused and angry and asking what the hell is going on in the dream scape. I told her I didn’t know but I was feeling an awful electrical shock passively building up in me. She dismisses it as nonsense and starts running towards her room to get something. Desperate to not be alone again in this hell world and wanting to prove I’m not crazy, I follow her and as she’s going through her rack of clothes, static starts making more noise, the pain becomes even more unbearable, and the clothes start moving around the way a plastic wrap or balloon moves in reaction to electricity. I back up from her room and suddenly the same electrical force starts moving the closet door, and my sister “oh hell nah I’m not pushing in that door” and runs downstairs outside onto our porch and sits down on the steps.

    I follow her and as I open the door and try to call her, the house door separates and starts levitating and twisting in different directions. I see a man in a blue shirt in a wheel chair rolling across my lawn, and he stares right at me and says “LOOK AWAY FROM ME” so I quickly looked back at the floating door.

    I tell my sister that the damn door is floating but she doesn’t say anything, just sits there. I yell something again, and she turns around. I couldn’t recognize her face, or if you could even call it a face, and suddenly she’s spewing a word salad like the other people I’ve encountered.

    I woke up and realized less than 10 minutes have passed yet it felt like an eternity.

    No im not high. Just extremely sleep deprived.

    i think I just tapped into my subconscious being fearful of being unemployed as a soon-to-graduate computer science major. Perhaps it was also another Boeing whistleblower doing an SOS astral projection warning me that he’s in danger.

    US Abrams tanks failing in Ukraine as Russia mocks them as ‘empty tin cans’
  • I get that they bastardize the export models so the enemy can’t reverse engineer it, but man. If your customer is also your supposed close ally, and they’re in the middle of a brutal war, maybe it’s worth giving them advanced technology to win if you actually care lol

  • Following the guilty conviction of Donald Trump, President Biden has bypassed congress and declared a “war on white men”

    The president warns all white American men that they have until midnight of May 30 before officially being illegal, after which he will approve the People’s Liberation Army to occupy the US as he activates marshal law.

    Trump's trial is hurtling towards a verdict. But are Americans paying attention?

    It's been a historic event filled with salacious detail, but polls suggest a strange level of detachment.

    It’s so bizarre that conservatives only care about stigmatization and the fallibility of the justice system and policing when it concerns guns

    “The police regularly oppresses people by making false reports and false arrests.”

    “FUCK BACKGROUND CHECKS. FUCK RED FLAG LAWS. THE GOVERNMENT WILL USE THAT AS AN EXCUSE TO TREAD ON YOUR GOD GIVEN SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!”

    “[Most] non violent offenders shouldn’t have their lives ruined without a chance of rehabilitation.”

    “HE PAID HIS DEBT TO SOCIETY! IF YOU CAN’T TRUST AN EX CONVICT WITH A GUN, YOU SHOULDN’T RELEASE HIM!”

    “People shouldn’t be locked up for using drugs and not bothering anyone ( sold and used by innocents and criminals)”

    “LAW ABIDING CITIZENS SHOULDNT BE LOCKED UP FOR USING SUPPRESSORS! (sold and used by innocents and criminals)”

    “The police will kill you with impunity and no good reason.”

    “THE ALPHABET BOIS WILL SHOOT YOUR DOGGO!! GET IT? BECAUSE THEY KILL YOU WITH IMPUNITY AND NO GOOD REASON!”

    “You shouldn’t have to jump through a hundred hoops just to prove you’re deserving of housing and healthcare.”

    “YOU SHOULDNT HAVE TI JUMP THROUGH A HUBDRED HOOPS JUST TO PROVE YOURE DESERVING OF THE GOD GIVEN RIGHT OF PROTECTION!!”

    “The courts are not objective. They are political tools and rarely will help you.”

    “GOD DAMN COMMIE DA WILL SEND YOU TO GUANTANAMO FOR KILLING A RAPIST MURDERER IN YOUR HOUSE WITH A .45!!”

    And that’s the thing. They believe that guns and self defense are rights ordained by god himself, more important than anything else, they think “the government” (rarely do they specifically call out the police) is fundamentally evil for even considering any gun control measure - yet they’re perfectly okay with the same government, same police force, enslaving prisoners or just executing them over flimsy evidence and vibes, that cops are always out to protect you, making it hard to get a job or simply survive.

    And it also reveals their true fantasies: when you bring up American soldiers and cops killing innocent people, they’re just “following orders” or “doing their job” from the “incompetent higher ups.” And yet, when you ask who they think will enforce gun control laws, conservatives will proudly declare that they will not comply and cops proudly declare they will not follow their superior orders to confiscate or arrest anyone over gun control. Guns are more important than human life, so much so that they have no problem with massacring families on their officer’s command or watch idly as their partner shoot a cuffed suspect then lie about it; but gun control is such a mortal sin that they will decry it, protest it, and refuse to follow it.

    Do people actually care about kernel-level anti-cheat detection?

    I would never play a game that has this feature, and it seems that many people feel the same way. But when I say "many people," I really mean just people on niche internet forums. I really don't think the general population gives a shit at all otherwise all these popular games would already be history.

    But it does make the case of VAC interesting. So many people including pro players are complaining about how Valve is basically useless when it comes to anti-cheat, and they're correct, primarily because they don't use kernel level detection. I recently watched this video that suggests Valve has some long term vision for their unintrusive software lol. I just can't believe it because e-celebs draw in views, money, interest, etc. and pissing them off as well as the players buying your shit seems counterintuitive. They gotta be cooking up something rightr?

    It seems to me that the players who do want a stronger anti-cheat don't care whether or not the studio is watching them whereas those who are adverse to kernel-level anti-cheat will likely not complain about a game being full of cheaters much.

    I'm curious if an open-source anti-cheat consortium would be successful, or if this is one of the few cases where security through obfuscation might be the only way to protect anti-cheat software.

    Also found out that the high level CS league ESEA has kernel level anti cheat and was caught mining bitcoin lol.

    Why do liberals think they hate Henry Kissinger?

    Not only did he do everything in service of the US empire, but there's not a single notable politician who disagrees with him or his agenda because it's also their agenda. Was he just the Trump before Trump, being indifferent about the optics?

    Americans would 100% side with the British and betray the colonists during the war of independence

    "God damn Freemasons blocking the road again. I'm going to run them over with my horse"

    "They dumped the WHAT?! That's it. I'm pro monarchy now."

    "Benedict Arnold was a supporter of the RULE OF LAW"

    Biden says the military was unable to recover his uncle’s remains during WWII because ‘there used to be a lot of cannibals’ in New Guinea

    President Joe Biden on Wednesday suggested twice that the United States was unable to recover his uncle Ambrose Finnegan’s remains after Finnegan’s plane crashed near New Guinea during World War II, “because there used to be a lot of cannibals” in the region.

    CNN asked his reps about the claims of cannibalism and their response was boot licking and referencing Trump lol
