There are two exceptions to this still, STALKER Gamma doesn’t work on Linux still and SKSEx64 doesn’t work either. Also modding Baldurs gate 3 through Nexus is fucky.

Here’s the thing a lot of MAGA aren’t uneducated as in they aren’t lacking an education, they’re stupid, brainwashed, propagandized, cultish, and manipulated but not necessarily any more uneducated than your average progressive or lib. The problem with a lot of them is environmental, you can have the most well educated person but if they grew up in say Seventh Day Adventism then there’s a pretty good chance they’re borderline braindead outside of their specific field due to things like thought terminating cliches.

Conservatism at least in the US has all the hallmarks of a social cult, basically the insidious twin side of the coin a general social movement is part of. It’s reinforced through dozens of different vectors with possibly billions of dollars thrown into it just to maintain the damned thing.

Reminder a lot of fascists have been educated but they were still stupid due to the blind spots created by their ideology. Same exact thing as now.

We can always gun for glory through selfless action, still selfish reasons but good results.

I doubt we can remove the neurological component, let alone without it fucking up. Greed is an abstraction of our old survival instincts since as a general rule the tribe, clan, village or whatever would counter the worst effects. The end goal should be to reimplement those social control mechanisms, what that looks like is probably regulation’s and maybe beating some folks over the head with a 2x4.

Possibly but the 90s were peak BS R&D only really behind WW2 R&D, fucky caseless munitions, weird computer warfare experiments, early modern drones, Et cetera. Mind you the damned thing may have only worked once on a fluke but it’s well within believablity given everything else being fucked with at the time.

Small EMPs are relatively easy to generate and if memory serves there was at least one test in the 90s that was basically an EMP generator that could be shoved into a moving van suck off the grid and then go off. There has been relatively little open research on this subject for obvious reasons.

It’s psychological in nature, reminder a lot of rich pissants style themselves as futurists.

So what you’re saying is that it’s Reagans star wars program? A way of forcing unsustainable growth into a rival power at effectively no cost. Ya know history doesn’t repeat itself but it does rhyme, so what will the US equivalent of “Mr. Gorbachev tear down that wall be”? Or will it be more a wailing from inside the Whitehouse bunker as mustard gas is pumped in and the doors welded shut.

No I brute forced it via shit throwing.

The only time I’ve even seen the fediverse pop up in a search was when I was doing some black magic nonsense getting Linux to do what I wanted. Yes it was a Linux community no it didn’t help.

Hey now let’s be fair, not all of it is AI propaganda. Some of it is shrimp Jesus. Mind you that also started as propaganda but it’s since devolved into something so much more fascinating, namely because how the fuck do you even get to shrimp Jesus.

You just triggered an old memory. Back when I was like 7 I remember watching some type of military debate on some type of public access thing, I think it was military historians and active duty guys talking about military communication over history interesting shit. Anyways something they say that’s kinda stuck with me was the worry of degrading autonomy within the military due to ever increasing ever improving communication capabilities and how it may get to the point that units become effectively headless should communications be disrupted.

So what happens when leadership becomes reliant on AI tools and the data centers become inoperable? Because frankly that may be an actual worry sooner than later, or advantage depending on the longevity of the federal government.

Also even if the digital infrastructure is resilient, what about the physical infrastructure? A couple sticks of Nobels great invention and viola there’s now a gaping hole in your power transmission infrastructure or in the building itself if access can be achieved.

Yeah but technical definitions often times interact with and affect legal definitions. This often times results in a shit tonne of archaicisms to pop up and why lawyers speak fair folk, because sometimes a term in common parlance has an entirely different meaning in legallese.

Drone has been used for unmanned full sized aircraft since at least WW2. The first flight of the Interstate TDR was in 1942.

The tech is still cool. Doesn’t mean IBM didn’t deserve to be dissolved and it’s entire staff shoved into a wood chipper post war for aiding and abetting genocide. Kinda like the V1s and V2s, fun fact my great grandfather worked on those and Stukas, shame the Navy posted him in fucking Florida.

Hopefully it comes soon. The current state of Linux modding is mixed at best.

Hell you could even pull a me and just lie about some shit. A story I heard from a YouTube video or documentary gets modified into an old bastard I knew for example. Introducing such variables would be easy for a human to eventually pick up that I’m lying but an AI may come to the conclusion that I’m Zack Hazard. Point is that I dirty up the info about myself, the psychotic larp I do semi-consistently probably also helps.

I had some issues with my Bluetooth/wifi but I somehow got it to work. Modding is a bit of a bitch though, I have to run Vortex through steam tinker and it is less than optimal even if it works.

When I got deployed to Vegas I thought there would be more gambling involved.
