Someone on the Pluribus subreddit suggested that certain quirks of the collective consciousness comes from how it needs to stay functional despite a vast array of minds that are individually quite different, and how those different personalities and experiences need to be merged together somehow.
There are empathetic people and completely obtuse people inside the the consciousness, highly intelligent people and those with regressive mental disorders, or more importantly; abusers and abuse victims.
In order to keep cohesion, they literally cannot deal with negative emotions. Imagine an abuser and their abuse victim merging into a single consciousness. How would they even function?
They wouldn’t.
So whenever the collective consciousness is forced to deal with negative emotions, it goes into a seizure.


The absolute irony. Yeah, this advert is trying to be a reference to what’s happening in the series, as this is exactly what the main character is experiencing.
But it creeped out and distressed the character into a mental breakdown. Yes, let’s emulate that as a tongue-in-cheek fridge advertisement.


And haven’t even achieved AI yet. What we call “AI” is still nothing more than an upjumped calculator.


Huh… That’s not a bad idea, actually.


Yes, but they still have problems. But I’m noticing a trend in foldable phone designs, and I’m worried that by the time foldable phones get really good, the ones that fold smaller aren’t around anymore.
I’m not sure what features you feel are lacking. And I haven’t used Plex at all.
For me, all I want is being able to connect to it from any device, and sync play.
Oh yeah. My friend group starts having issues with more than 8 people watching. ^^;
Unfortunately the plugin seems to be abandoned.


I don’t want large phones that get even larger. I want a large phones that becomes smaller for my pocket.
Use Jellyfin. Fill your server with treasures procured from the high seas. Watch on any device. Sync play with far away friends or family.
Hmmm… I remember an old lesson from the ancient times of the Internet, now long forgotten:
“Girl” is an acronym for “Guy In Real Life”.
Checkmate; girls are a social construct!


Ok, now tar and feathers.


I’ve gotten pretty much the entire Yakuza series through Humble Monthly. I’ve tried getting into it starting with Y0… Played a couple of hours… Then stopped…
I dunno… It just doesn’t really seem to grow on me.
What a really interesting insight. Here are some more topics that you might find interesting:


“Waaaahhhh! Waaaaahhhh! Why is Steam such a good service? That should be illegal! Tell them they should be worse!”
That’s all I’m hearing from these other corpos.


How about both?


But Elon is not a nazi! All he did was give out his heart to the crowd in a roman salut!
You’re not going to complain about a heartfelt roman salut, are you? That would be woke!


Kingdom Hearts. The writing is equally sappy and edgy fanfic crossover slop. But there’s something so satisfying about the combat, especially after the introduction of the command deck.
Yeah, I’ve noticed an uptic of AI generated content being posted outside the AI circle jerk subreddits. Places like the AoE4 and Bionicle subreddits have had quite a number of AI posts already.
Theyve become too courageous, with others going out of the way to defend the use of generative AI with weak arguments like “but cars also steal jobs”.
The one subreddit that I’ve seen have a healthy response against AI generated content is the Bionicle subreddit. Doesn’t really surprise me as the Bionicle community is full of creatives.
