Oddbean new post about login | logout they want mindless obedient flesh robots that they can rape and eat as they see fit, when they are tired of them doing all their housework and factory operation if you have seen THX1138 - that's an example of what the factories would look like
I just read the wiki synopis of THX113... very interesting. I do love that it has BART tunnels when Bart was new, first automated metro in US. I try not to think too much in these terms, as i don't want to lend compute to the computer that's birthing that dystopia. may cleanse myself with some Jane Austen or something.
haha jane austen... lol, it's pretty hard to find anything of substance from the 20th century that isn't pulp garbage, and not dystopian... CS Lewis and Tolkein basically, everything else is either fluff or hellscape
yes Jane Austen settles each of her characters with a man and a fortune according to her merits. Like Ms. So and so married Mr. So and so and settled with 50,000 pounds a year. and the worse characters get worse yearly stipends of pounds. I liked CS lewis. Perelandra is interesting. I should go back and try to read it again. naked astronauts, because it keeps the space ship lighter.
