You can and should.
A little deliberate compartmentalisation can be healthy. If you can’t make yourself forget for a day, try hours or even minutes. Set yourself some time in which if you think of these things you say to yourself “not now”.

Just like we practised, teleport around at random and take up the whole frame when on camera.


The LLM / image gen AI centipede.


That people would still look at it and call it messing up or fumbling is why they’ve been able to run the same scam for decades.


There are people, it is true—nay, a great many people—who smile at such things, because they are not sensitive to noise; but they are just the very people who are also not sensitive to argument, or thought, or poetry, or art, in a word, to any kind of intellectual influence. The reason of it is that the tissue of their brains is of a very rough and coarse quality.


Doesn’t have the flash of UE
I’m guessing (I haven’t used UE) that’s largely because UE adds a lot of graphics effects for the dev by default whereas in Godot you start with more of a blank slate. So something made by an inexperienced dev will look better (and run poorly) in UE.
I don’t remember if they mentioned that explicitly in this vid:


It’s actually really difficult to get your friends to switch over little things like ‘being a spy platform’, and ‘leaking tens of thousands of users private information’.


I sort of wish I didn’t believe this but I’ve seen how they talk about the war.
Meanwhile Dem leadership has a much more sensible position on the war: that Trump is doing it wrong.



Secure beneath the watchful eyes.
No not like that!
Impeachment and getting even aren’t priorities: They’re framing one of the key things they were elected for as childish and unnecessary.
I’m actually a little stunned they didn’t let voters enjoy the thought of whatever they imagined Democrats would do for a little while.


He didn’t even give people time to enjoy the fantasy.


Something surprisingly few people get about AI is if it had any intelligence at all it would surpass us blindingly fast, no matter the starting point.
It’s never going to be in the news that thinking machines got 23% smarter over the last month or three.
There’s an old comic I wish I could locate that has people standing at a train platform awaiting superintelligence. Nothing happens, then someone staring down the track says I think I see- whoosh and it’s already gone.


Moreover, under existing conditions, private capitalists inevitably control, directly or indirectly, the main sources of information (press, radio, education). It is thus extremely difficult, and indeed in most cases quite impossible, for the individual citizen to come to objective conclusions and to make intelligent use of his political rights.


Putin’s Razor: Never attribute to self-own that which could easily be blamed on Russia.


I figured that was already a euphemism for shitting yourself.


I’ve had one lie to my face and the person next to me about what they said to us less than a minute prior.
It’s understandably difficult for people who haven’t experienced it to understand or believe it.
Courtesy of COVID I feel like a frustrated spectator dealing with poorer memory, and brain fog when I reach the limits of a much reduced intellectual stamina.


The challenge of designing/iterating on a better system is easier than the political challenge of getting a chance to try it.
And then you have to defend that chance from saboteurs, enemy propaganda, poisoning the discussions on how to proceed, sanctions, invasion, literally anything and everything the old world can do to try to smother it.
Whoever replaces them, if they even bother with the theatre.
After seeing them frame going after their supposed political enemies for the illegal bad shit they’ve done as childish and unnecessary so soon after they were voted in I wouldn’t be shocked if they simply didn’t even address this.
