I hate no one. I wish all the greatest good. Some of you have been deceived, but so was I, and I still have a lot to learn. Come, let us reason together.
Most people have no idea how hard it is to make things work.
But things working (through Herculean effort by others) has become so commonplace to the human experience that people assume things working is the norm.
These people then, when they actually see a hero of our age deep in the throes of a battle with technology, then get annoyed and question the competence of the person they observe doing the work.
Normies are basically the hobbits of the universe.
The world spent 30 years calling Japan 'behind.'
Still uses cash.
Still uses fax.
Still has tiny shops run by one old couple.
Then the world got 'ahead' —
and ended up lonely, rushed,
and scrolling at 2 AM.
Now the same people are flying to Japan
just to feel something they can't name.
A meal made by hand.
A street that's quiet.
A stranger who's kind for no reason.
Turns out Japan wasn't behind.
It just refused to trade away
the things that actually make a life.

So 87 is more energy dense than 93.
@TonySeruga If non-criminals were allowed to cross freely at ports of entry using Israeli-style vetting then ai-powered gun emplacements all along the border are not immoral.
