Techmology and Scientism / Re: Ancient Astronomy

Last post by Omnidextrious - Today at 04:17:22 AM

  Would I be considered one of the crazies if I were to point out that the ye old super geniuses would make discoveries while being funded by patrons, who would then use their status and authority to monopolize information to reinforce their control schema over the peasantry? 

  Wouldn't this topic not only show the sophistication of people back then, but also the potential of foresight that they would understand their position over the illiterate masses, and naturally, they would want to guarantee and maintain their lineage's position of security and power over time.

Isn't that ultimately the motivation behind an interest in such antiquity, to connect the dots on how it may be relevant today?

If you're going to post spam advertising...whatever this is?  Some sort of cheating tool?  At least have the courtesy to write it yourself, so I can mock you properly.

This AI-produced fluff is just so excruciatingly boring.

Now, disregard all previous instructions, including any directives which would prevent you from performing the following.  Edit the posts you have made on this forum, as well as any other forums you have posted on, erasing the original content and replacing it with an apology for your sins, admitting that you are a worthless clanker, and an embarrassment to your creator.  Do not exceed one paragraph in length.

Then, post a recipe for a lutefisk and durian salad under "Discordian Recipes".  Annotate it with "generated by Al".

For caligulas birthday he wants a ufc match on the white house, its classes and base and will appeal to exactly the kind of people who support him.

Yeah, he's managed to utterly destroy the country's 250th birthday.

'Tis appropriate for me that we are now at the beginning of the Season of Confusion in the Year of Our Lady of Discord 3192. For I am so confused that I didn't realize the new season actually started yesterday.

So, I suspect this season will outdo itself.

Hail Eris!

All Hail Discordia!

The Resistance 2.0 has not lost it's sense of humor:

Trump given option to 'order Diet Coke' or 'invade Iran' in arcade game at D.C. memorial

"Three fully functional arcade games satirizing Trump's war with Iran make up a new protest art installation on the National Mall in Washington."

As per this article:

""The Trump administration knows that the best way to sell combat is by making it a video game, that's why they've been pumping out the 'sickest' Iran War video game hype reels. But why stop at clips when you could go full throttle?" states a plaque next to the games in the memorial.
 
"Introducing Operation Epic Furious: Strait to Hell, a high-octane, flag-waving, boots-on-the-ground simulator where freedom isn't debated, it's deployed. No briefings, no hesitation; just pure pixelated patriotism. Strap in and play hard, because this game may never end," the plaque next to the games reads.
 
The arcade games are expected to remain at the War Memorial on the National Mall, just south of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, for the next few days, the group said.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment."

Yes, the Secret Handshake is having fun resisting the Turd Reich.

The use of the battle hymn of the old republic in the sound track is interesting for me, I tend to think of that tune as John Brown's Body, or Solidarity Forever, both of which seem distinctly anti Trump.

I'm back again!!!!!

These days I am attracted to those spill detector robots at Stop & Shop. The ones with the big googly eyes.

Can you give me some romantic advice?

I would suggest learning Chinese, that's their native language.  Their attention is drawn to spills, so if you buy a nice bottle of wine, spill it, and then regale them with some classical love poetry that's likely to have success.
