great.
Now I need to rewatch that show.
Again.
Not that I hate it.
I just want to announce it and hope that people will join in.
Fuck it, I’m in.
It’s honestly the best bit of American TV yet made.
does it have a name
Without having read the other repllied in full: “The Good Place”. If you are into phylosophy, just got in blind. Just watch it. Too many spoilers otherwise
Trying to “Deus ex” the good place, huh. Bold move cotton, let’s see how well it pays off.
I’ve been watching it for the first time for the past two weeks. Wish I had discovered it sooner, but reddit was obsessed with the show when it was new and it kind of turned me off from it. Stupid, I know, but reddit tends to love shows I hate (like The Office US and Fallout).
Glad I gave it a chance cause it’s honestly one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. It’s near the top of my list, next to Better Caul Saul.
Alright, I might need to rewatch it too.
sucks me in and makes me feeling like I’ve just been imprisoned in a nightmarish hellscape for 10,000 years
Black Mirror, White Christmas episode. The episode also takes “blocking someone” to a whole new degree of whoa.
Made me think of transmetropolitan, specifically this page
Also that one DS9 episode where O’Brien gets tortured.
also one of phillip k. dicks books (probably)
That episode is why Cancel Culture scares me and why I hate mob mentality online… With the net smaller than ever, a ban on any site is basically your whole life over.
Just shut off from entire communities and outlets.
Banned from cornhub? Might as well give up the internet entirely, what else is there?
Cobhub? Kernelhub? Maishub?
a ban on any site is basically your whole life over.
Brotha, what?
Imagine getting banned from like Youtube, something easy as hell because the algorithim is prone to randomly flagging shit

Make sure you save it to show your grand kids what memes were like back in your day.
Kids are fucking stupid
but… they’re kids! they can’t be fucking people, even if they are stupid!
“Repost”
Reminds me of Miles “Lucky” O’Brien getting mentally imprisoned for 20 years while only an hour passes on the station.
Or Picard getting stranded on that desert island, and spends about a week eating strange mushrooms and carving flutes from animal bones. To this day the Enterprise crew deny it ever happened, and fabricated some story involving time dilation
I laughed uncontrollably at this. I’m really glad I didn’t see this last night while I was high, I probably would have had a huge asthma attack. It’s gold.
Basically the start of Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect
Atun-Shei video which I may appear in as a screencapped reddit comment.
TL;DW - the author knows what’s wrong.
My kind of memes
Over the years anon became a normie, what a disappointment SMH.
neuralink (and similar brain/machine interfaces) makes this possible. it’s not funny to me
Fortunately, noting on earth makes it currently possible, including neuralink.
N,N-DMT: “Am I a joke to you?”
You can be if you want, cutie!
I don’t think anything could make this possible, unless it was possible for another device to take over the “thinking” processing.
Our brains can change how they experience time to process things faster, but they need to shut off a lot of the higher thought to do so (it can happen during life/death scenarios). And even then, the descriptions I’ve heard of that where there’s a decent real time reference makes it sound like the thought speedup was only by a factor of less than 10, probably not more than 5.
And even with another device that could “think” for you even faster, I believe the closest it could really do is implant memories of having spent a large amount of time stuck in some device. Though it depends on the low level details of what conscious thought and existence actually are.
At the risk of being that guy; this is an appeal to an authority, and not a very good one at that.
In the article she expresses she’s just philosophizing on hypothetical technologies.
It’s really not that much different from thinking about episode ideas for Black Mirror.
Neuralink is basically an internal EEG. It’s not a borg brain implant.
