The fact that scifi movies and shows never considered deep fake audio and video means we didn't predict the future accurately      (ShowerThoughts)

Why do technology companies eventually become 'BIG TECH'?      (ShowerThoughts)
submitted by BarryWW to ShowerThoughts 1.6 years ago (+2/-1)
8 comments last comment...
CCDH is preparing their second attack, an attack on our 1st amendment right. Goal? KILL FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

I don't think Twitter/X fully supports freedom of speech, and while I don't support hate speech, I believe people should have the ability to see unhealthy content and simply ignore it; we are adults.

However, what's happening with Twitter/X gives me pause...
Why do technology companies eventually become 'BIG TECH'? They were the innovators, leading humanity to the next level and a better future.

I think we all know the answer:
Powerful entities and governments are behind them; they are the true RULERS. Everyone needs to obey them.

Centralized platforms make it easy for them to be controlled by a single person, a powerful entity, a country.
We need to move forward to a decentralized network. It is UNSTOPPABLE and RESISTANT to CENSORSHIP.

Social media alternatives: Nostr & WireMin.

At what point in the future will blackmail essentially become bragging rights and what societal repercussions should we expect as a result?     (ShowerThoughts)

Given that at some point in the not-to-distant -perhaps even the very, very near- future the ai tools for creating fictional deepfake video will become completely indistinguishable from the real thing and widely available. Audio is very nearly there already. What happens when anyone can make a video of anyone doing anything to the point where it ceases to be evidence of wrongdoing? What I mean by blackmail becoming bragging is that people could do the most heinous of things, film them and then release them through alternative channels for everyone to see and then simply claim that it's a deepfake designed to smear their character by those who dislike them and nobody would know any different.

What becomes of a civilization that completely loses the ability to differentiate what is real and what is not? No, let me rephrase that as it is not quite accurate. The question should actually be: What becomes of a civilization that, both willingly and knowingly, discards any possibility of discerning what is real from what is not. I see no way in which it ends well for anyone.

If Asian kids end up in orphanage, they are doomed     (ShowerThoughts)

If Asian kids end up in orphanage, they are doomed to live all their life without knowing what their nationality is, since all Asians look the same.

Think about it.

It's getting to the point everything uses one cord and I rarely have to go find a micro usb. It plugs right in without trouble and doesn't stop working after 2 months. Life is good. I hope the EU kills off the lightning cable for all your apple fags so we can all live in harmony.

Is it possible that these lost cities we see in places like Gobekli Tepe, Sumeria, Mesopotami, etc were lost because of a similar effect of what we're seeing today with declining birthrates? This would explain how the places/inofrmation was forgetten; because it was abandoned     (ShowerThoughts)

I was just listening to some weeaboo talking today about how Japan is having issues where huge amounts of villages in rural areas are filled with 90+ year old people because the young people weren't created or moved to the city, and housing prices are super low due to the low human activity there.

When a woman gives birth, her body will select the perfect egg in order to make the best baby. I believe that this selection would give the baby a better than random gene selection. Then again, birth control and soy lattes mess this system up.

I had two shower-thoughts. The first about cars and the second about people. [any TL;DR comments will be referred to the Mod]      (ShowerThoughts)
submitted by paul_neri to ShowerThoughts 2.4 years ago (+2/-2)

Cars

When new models appear they look new, novel and interesting but after, say, 10 years look dated. Is it because we become familiar with them and they lose their novelty value or is it that design becomes more cutting-edge and new, novel and interesting or both?

People

Why are we all so needy? Physically and emotionally needy? And we tend to be unpleasantly needy. Who'd want to be a politician and expected to wave a wand over people's lives and make them better? Even service-delivery would be stressful if not nightmarish at times.

These two thoughts extended my time in the shower and I wasted some of the world's greatest resource.

The prize for the best answers is a dinner for two with dangus.

Just a rule-of-thumb I use to deal with disappointment     (mensline.org.au)
submitted by paul_neri to ShowerThoughts 2.3 years ago (+1/-1)

https://mensline.org.au/how-to-deal-with-anger/how-to-deal-with-disappointment/

and it is to ask yourself "what if?"...what if things don't go as planned? And if things do go pear-shaped you're in a better position to deal with the situation because you're prepared.

An example.

Just fired off a missive to an Aus politician who is considered to be very Conservative. I expect a sympathetic response. But...people are an unknown quantity. This dude could be offended by what I'm suggesting. So...now I've addressed that possibility I'm prepared for it and won't burst into tears! You with me?

It was a thing back then for people to get caught day dreaming or talk about what they thought about while day dreaming.

Ever wonder how feminist women can still fornicate with men even though they have a contrived hatred for them? Maybe this is what is deterring women from fornication and why we see virginity and less fornicators.     (ShowerThoughts)

This also explains the overly emotional, overblown "reeeeee here's why i'm ~~~~rejecting~~~ (this makes me as a woman more valuable) this man". In addition to women being neutral, sexually inert material unless acted upon by an outside force, their masculine behavior pushes them to being attracted to women, but they never get an opening because both women are expecting the other woman to make the first move, and so it results in a perpetual stalemate, and women achieve a maximum masculine status of: beta male.

The CFR cucks must have figured out early on that gaming would eventually ecclipse hollycuck movies. & Gamergate was the result of their new plan put in motion.     (ShowerThoughts)

The thing with sweet baby inc & steam... I think now that Veritas exposed ALL of the cucks at ALL medias and how it's all one big fkn like, they are trying to build another CFR-like control structure, likely with much less [national] identity of the people/groups running the structure.

The MSM/CFR were primarily social engineering structures to brainwash the plebs with. They weren't about to let the gaming industry undo it all.../

CFR and all its bjtches are pretty much proved to be one nation so freakin racist against the rest of the world to the point where they subvert all world governments and use them to genocide their own people. Ukraine, being the latest example. And with the WHO, and the forced wazxines, they killin the whole world. Imagine how racist they are.

A god is something you idolize. When you are willing to harm yourself and your loved ones for it, this is called sacrifice. Progressives sacrifice the safety of their little children and their other loved ones on the altar of Tolerance.

Has the love of money taken control of you where greed set into your heart? Your God is Money.

Everybody has a god. You're all a bunch of religious acolytes. What is your Religion?

Who/what do you worship?!

Make voat P2P mesh. Funnel all requests through one user to save database IO     (ShowerThoughts)
submitted by titstitstits to ShowerThoughts 3 months ago (+1/-1)

Im an expert programmer (not as good as an Indian or anything) and will volunteer my time if ya'll think this is a good idea. @system


I mean, to be clear, post and comment GETs would be distributed across the network. But the actual server hits could probably be brought down by orders of magnitutde.

oh, and maybe you dont funnel them all through exactly one user, but have it adjust automatically based on whatever makes sense.

...im talking about using websockets for all the P2P stuff. Btw this would make voat more high tech than its non free speech alternatives like x.
