Nothing is as terrifying as SpaceEngine.

Frankly. This… software rearranged my brain and changed me fundamentally.

There are no words to describe being lost in the 10^27 of space. It’s just too much, you will go insane and if you survive you will lose the ability to talk with people, lose every single thing that you thought matters. You will be alone even in the busiest of places, some part of you forever stuck in the 10^27 of emptiness between Galaxy Groups.

This isn’t a joke. Ignorance is bliss

I hate how Reddit conditioned my brain to see score before the actual content and make up my mind about it before even reading it.

I don’t say scores aren’t important to have some kind of loose groupthink quality control but it all has as many cons as it has pros and there isn’t really a perfect solution just least bad.

Also it is the main thing making social media so addicting when you receive points and I want internet to serve me and not I serve the internet.

If a phone/site/program makes everything possible to be as addictive then it actually makes you a slave to it imo instead of it being a useful tool enriching your experience and serving you to maybe get more useful information or show new ideas.

That’s why these new designs get more pretty to look at but less useful because they are made to hijack your time from yourself for ad watching. So in a way ad based companies literally do everything to steal the most valuable resource from you - your time and by extension - your life.

It’s very entertaining

No. It was just a cult of science and technology instead of real understanding of it. Some kind of naive belief that no matter what, the direction is only up and even accelerating. It was like being a sciencey golden retriever

You are right and I thought it was my cat doing litter business

I remember this mindset when I was 17. Unwavering faith in the unlimited human potential. Head loaded with science fiction didn’t even need drugs. Ray kurzweil. Longevity escape velocity. Flying cars.

Kindly thank you

Is this legit? Is this site trustworthy? Do you have maybe another source?

[–] emmie@lemmy.ml 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I don’t really subscribe to any belief system or ideology based software choice. I guess feel free to round the rough edges as you preach your favourite software. We are all a little biased on the best days

It is annoying semi annoying maybe but like I use it to do black market things, anarchy stuff, getting medicine where gov provides shit. It is such a crutch

But you dare to mention it on mainstream media and you will get lynched or banned for whatever reason nowadays.

Kinda irks me because it helps with my disability so much to get stuff I need, medicine. I couldn't function without it

Just ranting I guess, I do too much of rants admittedly

Edit: So I see all the scams created bias about this tech which is unfortunate. But looking aside this tech is pretty rad though maybe too much resource intensive depending on implementation
