Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.

Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!

We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!

Awareness of mortality does not equate to a fear of death. It equates to an embrace of life. Life - like gold, like diamonds, like bitcoin - is made valuable by its scarcity.

Memento mori.

One interesting thing about identity-broadcast social media like Twitter/Instagram is people feel empowered to talk to the many like they're demons and idiots because the sense is that your takes only show up in the feeds of people that agree with you (or at least want to see them) and those people are the few. Etiquette and social norms are self-defined so the result is a you-of-a-kind platform and ME-IS-RIGHT-IS-GOOD-IS-SMART.

This is why they are so popular with each other and fulfill the addict’s needs for dopamine. They get their rewards from the likes and retweets and such. They have an incentive structure that fits the needs of their users and keeps them coming back for more and more. They can feel good and big at the same time.

Have you ever engaged a totally committed lefty/Marxist/socilaist/communist in a conversation or debate? I am beginning to think it is a complete waste of time and, in this case, finger work! What do you think about this situation?

I've done it, it's a HUGE waste of time, and it gives me a nervous twitch in my eye because of the awful things they say.

They have no concept of the real world, that is all. You shouldn’t let it get to you and make you twitchy, it is just a waste of time.

It's a way of saying that I think what they say is horrible. They don't know anything, the worst are those who support communism and have never experienced it, there are also those who live under communism and emigrate. They are incoherent.

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @Rothbardian_fanatic 11 Dec

I don’t know if the people who have lived under communism get incoherent very often. They seem to be very clear on how much they dislike and disagree with the world of communism and never want to go back.

I know people close to me who love socialism, but they run away from it, that's why I say they are incoherent. On the other hand, there are those of us who hate everything related to the left.

There is a saying, “Capitalism brings prosperity, socialism brings misery.” This may be the major reason people are incoherent and fleeing whenever the subject comes up.

I have such little tolerance for AI slop. Most of the time it seems like even the author doesn't read it. What's the point? Pretending you have thoughts?

It is for the uneducated who cannot think for themselves. They need the crutch to formulate any thought at all. I think they may just be the OG NPCs.

A couple months ago I wasnt using an AI detector, but now I have to just to notice. Some things I can detect by how it reads. Its becoming more widely adopted. Do people really think no one will notice?

30 sats \ 7 replies \ @k00b 10 Dec

It's occasionally hard to spot, but it mostly shows in writing that has words for the sake of having words.

I'm not sure they care if people notice. I think they think it improves their "brand" in aggregate to have the appearance of being a writer even if no one in their right mind would bother reading it.
