  • For more then thousand years you who are Ea-nāṣir will be forgotten, but then during a time when language transcends the world we know and the people can communicate freely to any at any point of time without relying on a messenger, and the ways people expresse their ideas transcend the use of words and blends with the world of art. You will be become remembered.

    The wise men will discover our history and you will be noted amongst us. Your name will be known to them and the existence of your person will become a meme, a sacred expression of their language.

    And the meaning of your name will be that of shitty copper and the spirit of your person will be that of the worst of merchants.

    Ea-nāṣir, a trader, sold sub-standard copper to a customer their scriptures will say. And this is the truth, so will it be.








  • I understand where this is coming from but is there a better term to refer to this?

    Psychological trait that can emerge in any humans but is perceived (culturally understood) to be harmful by humanity at large and is solvable with therapy, medication and general education.

    Both greed and hate follow this pattern. I do not believe in inherent evil, showing compassion as they are sick just makes nonjudgmental sense to me.

    I am autistic myself have experience plenty of ableist rhetoric, but an example would be people assuming i can conform to their speech, avoiding their list of banned words while still expect me to communicatie coherently.




  • Oh no, the execution and information thus far has been horrible. You are alluding to blockchain are you? When i look at the website you post i see absolutely nothing that i even recognize as web3 its all cryptostuff.

    I don’t get why everybody is so hell-bend on blockchain based internet (sure its decentralized but come on, we’re creative enough to do better). Its like people don’t get the point of “user owned” and are expecting companies to build a better internet for them without serving their own interests.

    No, we are going to need to do this ourselves, self host our own data and services, open source everything.

    Lemmy and the fediverse are the closest i have seen to being proto web 3 in spirit and there are also still far from perfect.

    I have read the “What is web3” from that site and could not disagree on the definition more. I would not be suprised if both the blockchain cults and this website are part of the propaganda machine that is stopping a free internet from happening.

    My web3 is aligned much more with this: https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/user-liberation-watch-and-share-our-new-video


  • I don’t judge people who give in to the oppressor. Life is hard and you have to pick your battles, more important stuff then blocking ads for “normal” people.

    For me its largely a disability/accessibility thing. The whole site is not usable.

    Its not that i want to die on this hill its that corporate bullshit is measurably detrimental to my health. My hill is the only one i can exist on.



  • Sorry to burst your bubble:

    Claude: "This gibberish text is meant to be humorous by parodying actual cooking tips. It plays on the common kitchen tip of placing a wooden spoon across a pot to prevent it from boiling over, but twists it into an absurd and incomprehensible statement.

    The humor comes from the contrast between presenting this as useful advice for new independent adults and the actual nonsensical content. It’s a playful way of poking fun at the challenges of learning to cook and live independently, as well as the sometimes confusing nature of cooking tips and tricks."

    I just uploaded the picture and asked to explain it.
