I was taking a break after posting a controversial post

wow wasteof4 had a big upgrade

This has been in and out of my mind, and I can't stand it being thought and forgotten and rethought again. I'll just write it here and be prepared to get absolutely murdered by some volatile person.

Here's a quiz for a starter.

• Do you appreciate big corporations on what they do?

• What is your experience with AI nowadays? Should we use it on a daily basis?

• Are cryptocurrencies, NFTs, the metaverse, etc. a good idea? How about the stock market?

• Does the current intellectual property laws fit this current time?

• Is there only two genders? Are they final? Must it be?

If you're been on here, most likely you'll answer these questions with a big fat no. You think big corporations are evil, greedy, gluttonous, envious, all of the seven deadly sins. You think AIs are plagiarist/authoritarian machines, prone to delusions, anti-intellectual tools, that you're mad that everything seems to be hastily integrated by it. You think crypto and stock is as silly as balancing a double pendulum, NFTs as worthless as dirt, and the metaverse being unnecessary. You think the current copyright and patent law is easy to commercially exploit and needs to be reformed; you may even have the audacity to state that no one should own their ideas. You think, of course there's should be more than two genders; it's our right to determine who we identify as, and sometimes it's never these two.

However, everyone I met in person seem to answer these question a yes. My uni offered an Office 365 account, and has been collaborating with some other, presumably big name corps. My mom even told me to use IG because it is useful. I see about half of my colleagues have either ChatGPT or DeepSeek or some other LLM open in their browser. Two of my lecturers seems to be really adamant of using AI; one even showed us some websites to generate presentations, in clear text, on the introductory course, and even used one of them to present a chapter of the course. Crypto is one of the curriculum on my uni—I know that because the only entry of Docker Desktop in their computer lab is for Ethereum—; I bet stock is too (perhaps on the business faculty). My mom and dad once suggested me to invest in NFT, and my uncle mistakenly thought I left Jeff (which I've attached a note on not to turn it off) to mine some crypto (I'll never do that to poor Jeff, besides I'm not sure Jeff's old GPU have the gusto to do that). My programming algorithm lecturer had a take that unlike Python, with Java and other compiled programs, you can compile a program and show it to someone to show-off. I asked can't you just give the Python source, and he said that people can "steal" it; I elaborate what if that's the goal, and he said that's generally not the case; not every code we write is open-source. Being raised in a Christian family, I have this doctrine that there should be only two genders, each with their own traits, and homosexuality is a sin. Ask a Christian wasteofer if you want to learn more.

You might know these type of people. You might even be able to categorize them under a single category, one that is the polar opposite of yours. Nevertheless, the fact that these people exists means I cannot definitively say anything about these questions. Either way I will get scorned, by you if I follow them, or them if I follow you. Somehow I got into this dilemma: whether I should follow this Internet environment, or the real environment I'm on.

There's always the neutral option. Prefer not to say. Say I'm indifferent. Exercise my rights not to speak. I've been in this stance since it was been debated on. But I can't stay in this stance forever. The more I live, the more intense these positions get. Even a neutral stance is considered derogatory today. And I don't want to make a bad impression of myself. I can't stand living in this chasm of centrism. The Internet has already leaned me to the left, but I don't feel like rejecting those on the right.

Maybe I'm not confident with myself. Maybe I'm a pussy that's just afraid to fight. Or maybe I'm just overthinking. Maybe ignorance truly is bliss. I don't know.

Now that I have the game, I can now play custom levels without guilt

REVIEW: It works “well”


(this was on my Fedora box)

After some lack of thinking, I bought the defibrillator to replace the one I stole

An infinite pack of cards and some kid’s life would have to wait later

I like seeing people go bananas when someone references something

For example:

I can’t see it :(

edit: now I can… imgur is super quirky here

how can my brother find Citra for Android today, I thought that thing died recently

A: it’s opposite day.

B: is it opposite day?

now this is too spaced out how do I fix this

(this question was asked on TBG’s Discord at 9 AM)

I have Steam sitting uselessly on my Fedora install since Clicky doesn't support Linux (woohoo). What should I get there instead?

there might be more but it's like two past midnight right now and we're going to be on a trip this morning

i want to sleep

how are these related to Clicky

I think I’ll try Xfce on John

*headaches with high DPI config*

nevermind

gimme some quotes and their authors

wait I think I’ve already asked this, whoops
