@Needham404@ChrissGPT Because that is what they want. Ban fable, give the publicity to ChatGPT and cement itself as number 1 along with it's US Gov affiliation and contracts. It's a national security power play.
21yrs old still building his tank.
3rd in the Coleman.
Ranked #1 out of all small fowards
Ranked in the top 10 in the AFL according to champion data
With 9 games left, Hawthorn still has to play Carlton, Richmond, Essendon, North Melbourne, West Coast and Collingwood. As well as GWS at the MCG and Melbourne in Tassie.
That is not average talent... that is talent. If those were stats from Harley Reid who is also 21, then they'd be saying he's going to be the best player in the league when he matures.
Actually religious and past cultures explain exactly in detail what existed at the start with directly matches with modern day science
Look at the polar opposites
Black Hole:
Spacetime collapse
Plasma collapses inward
Time slows down
Space compresses inward
Structure breaks down matter, atoms, nuclei, particles
Matter and energy pulled inward
Density increases
Information compresses
Big Bang:
Spacetime expansion
Plasma exists everywhere early on
Time begins and moves forward
Space expands everywhere
Structure forms particles, nuclei, atoms, matter
Matter and energy spread outward
Density decreases
Information spreads out
Matter cannot enter or exit. It's at such a compressed bandwidth that you would cease to exist if you tried.
At the start of the big bang everything was just plasma and space expansion. No atoms, no particles, no structure, no light. Just a fog of deconstructed matter in the form of plasma and information which cannot be destroyed. The plasma stretches and cools and eventually particles start to form and the building blocks start to form.
Every religion and past culture all believe in the exact same thing that a world existed before our material world that was a thought based liquid like reality. Cosmic ocean, primordial waters, empty, fluid, shapeless, formles, liquid reality. They believed that thought based intelligences existed and evolved from it. Our material world was created out of it.
Kabbalah- Adam Kadmon and material Adam, restoring unity, bringing everything back into one system. Pre state is a unified non-
physical structure, no separation, more like pure form/information before matter. Old system + new system merging
Christianity- returning to God, heaven & earth becoming one. Early state described as void, formless, darkness over the deep before creation. New man/transferred human
Gnosticism- divine spark in matter returning to the source. Origin is higher non-material realm (Pleroma), pure thought/form before physical reality
Hinduism- Atman merging back into Brahman, individual self reconnects to the system. Creation comes from a cosmic ocean, undifferentiated, no fixed forms
Buddhism- ending separation, returning to a unified state beyond form. Reality described as empty of fixed structure (emptiness), no solid forms
Taoism- returning to the Tao, everything flowing back into the original source. Tao is formless, shapeless, before all structure and matter
Ancient Egypt- returning to the primordial waters (Nun), unity before creation. Everything begins in an infinite dark ocean, no land, no form
Greek philosophy- Chaos to cosmos, returning to the unified origin state. Chaos is not disorder but a formless void, no structure yet. Moving from fragmented world back to unified order
Sufism- unity with the divine, dissolving separation. Origin seen as a hidden, formless reality before manifestation
Zoroastrianism- restoration of the world back to perfect unity. Early state more pure, less divided before corruption and material split
Indigenous traditions- spirit world and physical world reconnecting, no real separation. Often describe a dreamtime or spirit state before physical form, fluid and formless
Different names, same pattern
Yet someone's going to tell me that it's apparently a coincidence that every religion and culture just so happened to exactly know how our reality existed and was created. Matching up with what science already accepts and can prove
Even the Norse get it right π
Norse- starts with an empty void, where cold mist and heat meet and create everything. Niflheim, the cold region, mist, fog, ice, stillness, no movement. On the other side is Muspelheim, heat, fire, energy, movement. Moves from a formless fog like state into structure, light and order. End state is a collapse back into that original unified state, merging everything back into one
More like they backed OpenAI.
Government contracts and huge investment from Kuschners Thrive Capital and other friends.
New versions of Chatgpt coming anytime now. Anthropic was stealing their limelight. Anthropic too restricted with being a public benefit corporation with a trust
This reality will never exist. Peter Thiel says the true part out loud.
Civilisation cannot survive with advanced technology capable of destroying the planet in a second to be used by dictators, terrorists, billionaires and rogue nations. Warp drives, biological super humans, immortality, time manipulation, super weapons and viruses.
If you honestly think the world just keeps on spinning when you can just access anything you want in your garage. No. This is the new world order, they saw it coming. The mega corporations take control of Governments, their land and resources. This is your universal income. The censoring of AI is just the beginning.
If you honestly didn't think there was an elite society pulling the strings for the last 100 years then you're about to find out the hard way.
@Konviction_@CyberQuantumAi@pubity Well I'd rather gracefully go out with population decline due to birth rates than get wiped out by a man made virus or world war. Unfortunately I think the global cataclysm is more likely to usher in the new world control system and science based religion.
@jayco_13@johnny171938631@3AWisfootball They wouldn't trade Dear. He's signed until 2028 and a father son.
Chol is 30 next year.
Dear replaces Gunston
King replaces Chol
Lewis signs this year
@johnny171938631@3AWisfootball Hawks have larger salary cap space than Collingwood. Just look at who they were chasing in 2025.. Harley Reid, Zac Merrett, Oscar Allen and Zac Butters.
That's fine from me as a Hawthorn supporter. I know that our club would let our players leave.
Only 1 year left on his contract. Leaves for nothing anyway after that. Nothing to gain from keeping him for a year when you're not in top 8 contention.
Essendon gave up two first round picks (10 and 22), a future first-rounder and Henry Hustwaite. Hustwaite came 2nd in the VFL Liston Trophy (brownlow) as well as making VFL team of the year. 3 first round picks and a good quality young player only 21 years old racking up 30+ touches a game.
In 2022 Mitchell traded out
Tom Mitchell - 29yrs - 1 year left
Got a pick 41 and 50
We later got Henry Hustwaite
Jaegar O'Meara - 28yrs - 1 year left
Got Lloyd Meek and future 2nd
We later used this to get Weddle
Jack Gunston - 30yrs
Got pick 48 and a future 4th
I personally didn't want to pay any more than a 10 to 20 pick for a 30yr old player who's now almost 31. I'm happy we didnt
It doesn't matter if they match...
He's a restricted free agent
If he nominates Hawthorn, and Hawthorn offer him X money and X years. And Suns decide to match it then the free agency move is cancelled.
King can accept Suns same Hawks offer of money and years.
Or he can still choose to go to the Hawks in which the two clubs must negotiate a trade. Considering Hawks are 5th with an easy run home, they should finish top 4 meaning a pick between 18 and 20.
Suns estimated to end up finishing 10th with a tough run home getting pick 11. And their Ben King compensation would be pick 12.
Many factors at play here as both teams discuss the situation prior. If Suns match Hawks high contract offer and years and then they're forced to trade. The risk is that the Hawks do not want to pay a high contract and lose picks/players in a trade when they were expecting to get a player for no picks
Could the Hawks really beat a pick 12 compensation pick? Pick 19 + Second rounder + First round 2026 (19) ?? Would they even want to give up their draft hand when they're already paying 1.4 million per season to get him. Probably not. They're paying 1.4 because they are getting him for nothing.
Because the Suns decided to match the contract and if the teams cannot come to an agreement then King can decide to stay at the Suns or go to the pre season draft. The Suns cannot reverse their matching contract as it's too late, the compensation pick is gone once they decide to match the contract.
He can put a price tag on his head of the same 1.4 million contract and his manager can scare off teams with threats of only a 1 year contract to teams he doesn't want to join. They always get to the team they want.
Premiership window at Hawthorn. They were willing to give 2 picks last year and more. Would be a good pick up for a pick 20 even if it's overs as he's contracted and Essendon would no doubt play hard ball again.
Last year Hawthorn offered for a 30yr old
Pick 10
Pick 22
A 2026 Future First-Round
Henry Hustwaite
Why not have both.
Tolertarium control allows laws to limit births. The chemicals in our food have already damaged our fertility into a steady decline. Birthing requiring IVF which requires money. Let's say 1 baby max per couple. Factor in those that don't reproduce. Less than 0.8 birth rate.
Current population - 8.3 billion.
After 25 years - 7.5 billion
After 50 years - 4 billion
After 100 years - 900 million
After 150 years - 200 million
After 200 million - 50 million
There's room here for Immortals
@BuckyBlues16@3AWisfootball They don't need to trade for him if Gold Coast don't match the offer. Which they get a first round pick as compensation anyway and salary cap space. The compensation pick would be better than what Hawthorn could offer unless they bundled up a bunch of 20+ picks
@johnny171938631@3AWisfootball When Gunston retires next year they're left with Lewis and Chol when Hawthorj clearly want to play 3 talls. If Lewis falls to injury theb they're cooked. They definitely desperately want King and they don't need to give up picks for him
@canna82@3AWisfootball Hawks want to resign Lewis. Lewis said earlier in the year that he would stay.
Gunston to retire next year as King is his replacement.
Lewis, Chol and King.
Dreaming
The smart move would be trading him early and using the time to better your draft position or trade for other players. Leaving it to the last second to try hold out for a extra pick or 2 for a 31yr old turning 32 next year is the sole reason Essendon is a mess of a club. Let the coaching and recruitment staff do their job without the overruling board members and financers with emotional interest invested in the club.
@KRUDLER62@3AWisfootball Hawthorn would give up 1 pick inside 10 to 20 for Merrett. He's 31 in a few months. Missed the boat on this one. Let the club run the team not the board of directors and their financers.
