so following this "logic", the problem for the "Deutsch" is that there is no flavor of Jews willing to "align" with them?

Whose fault is that, motherfuckers?

Like everything Yud it’s always dumber than you think.

Interesting that the artist/LLM rendered his physique in a manly, superhero style but kept (or inserted) a lazy eye.

Someone more versed in Japanese will have to translate the SFX for me. I don't think it's an eager heartbeat but it would be fun if it was .

I found it too, it makes the point that Nazi Germany did nothing wrong in attcking other countries, stealing their products, and enslaving their people" is an argument Putin could have made.

ironically many "WW2 enjoyers" are big fans of German hardware, uniforms and tactics...

Tired: AI

Wired (and delicious): A1

Anywhoo, did not know the scaling of voting power to karma before. Interesting.

At the start they state

The disappointment of imminent death is all the more crushing because just a few years ago researchers announced breakthrough discoveries that suggested [existing, adult] humans could have healthspans of thousands of years. To drop the analogy, here I'm talking about my transhumanist beliefs. The laws of physics don't demand that humans slowly decay and die at eighty. It is within our engineering prowess to defeat death, and until recently I thought we might just do that, and I and my loved ones would live for millennia, becoming post-human superbeings.

This is, frankly, bonkers. I'd rate the following in descending order of probability

1. worldwide societal collapse due to climate change
2. we develop an AI that will kill us all for unspecified reasons
3. we establish viable self-sustaining societies outside the limits of Earth
4. we develop techniques that allow everyone to live effectively forever

If the first happens, it removes the material requirements for the latter things to happen. This is an extreme form of "denial of the flesh", the inability to realize that without food or water no-one will be working on AI or life extension tech.

Some idiot on LW still thinks the same way:

I selected and worded these suspicions to sound more like things a Democrat might say, because I’m trying to persuade Democrats that conservative misinformation draws from reasonable attitudes.

One was poisoning the coffee, another one the cocaine. One was trying to electrocute him in the pool, on getting the chandelier to fall on him and so on.
