 First, see if watching motivational videos works. If not, then consider joining the dark side.   
 Order online with crypto. It will show up in your mailbox.  
 Once a week is about as often as practical. Otherwise you can't sleep and form new memories. People binge it, cause it's moreish, but it stops working after the second bump. It's great if you need to lose weight or need to do boring chores like cleaning.

 Hmm, I thought it was the ones with bad side effects. Meth is not addictive, I've quit it 100 times.

 I stayed up for 3 days on meth once. Felt like shit after first 20 hours. 

What's the difference between hard and soft ones?

 Which marketplace? 
 😑 
You're the same as those NFT guys.  
 People will be hesitant to share address and name. 

For a second I thought of a mug bot which is a robber robot. Points a gun at you and demands bitcoin. 🤔 
 It could work as B2B marketing service. Otherwise too much hassle for little.  
 Still need to provide name?

 They do. I used AWS and socks, and they always detected it after 2 days somehow.

 No if you try to avoid sugar and seed oils.  
 Send photo of ingredients list, please 
 Some sugar in the chocolate. 12% is okay though. Seems like there's more sugar in the caramel syrup, so watch out if you're trying to lose weight. 

 I don't see seed oils mentioned, but there's emulsifiers (lecitin). I don't know if those are unhealthy, but I avoid them.  
 The watchers are not as good as you think, eh? Snowden is a liar.

 Tesla sold 5M cars in its entire history. Toyota sells 5M cars every 6 months. 
Bitcoin processed 1T transactions in its entire history. Visa processes 1T transactions every day.  
 They were useful and affordable.  
 And Visa and Toyota were not.  
 No evidence 
 if we all transacted in #monero instead of fiat, we would create a world of freedom  
 It'd also hike the fees, and bloat the chain. Keep it niche.

 In a way, I admire bitcoin, cause its religion survived the crypto crash. There are so many true believers compared to AI (I doubt anyone actually believes AGI is possible).  
 Bitfags neglect how much governments and banks can fight back. Conspiracy fags neglect how much the masses fight back against the elites. Both need a very dominating powerful enemy to avoid a crisis of identity.  
 Evening ⚡  
 Slow evening. I'm listening to geohot talking about RL while looking at fedi memes.  
 A human driver is 50% faster than a self driving car, because a human knows when it's okay to break rules. Hardware costs 100k per car. There is a huge surplus of human labor nowadays. It is not a viable business. It's so much better to get soys fired from their jobs as programmers, so they start ubering. 

Others may end up as agricultural workers. This may be the beginning of re-ruralization. Perhaps federal land can be given to the boomer jews house owners, so the rents can go down.  
 Tesla is already responsible for killing dozens of humans with incompetence instead of intelligence.  
 I'm sure they're fun, but you can buy 3 used gas cars for the same amount.  
 I doubt whoever you assume to be able to implement it is competent enough to do it. More likely that everyone will be too poor for cars in 20 years. Middle class will have e-bikes. And driving will only be acceptable if you're working.  
 Look at what technology has done to music. It made it almost worthless by cutting the cost of media to zero. I assume you're the type who thinks it's a bad outcome. 

I am sad that the state/elites are not as powerful as vivid imaginations predicted. Because it means our world does not have technology advanced enough.  
 Now AI is doing the same to programmers, but programming is not mass culture like music. So it doesn't really matter what profession, none is fully safe. 

Culture already hit close to zero as we talk using computers while sitting alone and separate from other humans. This is our world though, and I accept it over living a communal life in the Amazon or Africa.  
 I barely listen to music, so I have very little understanding or interest. For me it'd be too depressing to be in a field with little money in it. Scraping by ain't no way to win. 

Sectioned? You mean you wanna be like those homestead types? 
 I don't think we even need LLMs to get rid of bullshit jobs. We can just fire the soys. For some reason unknown to me, it's better for the system to keep them employed. 

In a way, the LLM toys are just a catalyst to what was supposed to happen 20 years ago. LLMs allow the masses to imagine that soys are useless, thus lowering the activation energy.  
 hope y'all have a beautiful morning 💜  
 Any stats homework today? 
 Have you tried giving speeches or doing standup? 
 The only way for fear to go away is to face it and learn that it's not bad at all. You need to feel that people hate you, and it's actually wonderful.  
 Most don't think about you at all.

 I feel bad for my brother, his gf broke up with him. He's a good kid, but women keep cheating on ... 
 He should switch to white men.
