Yes, just a less disheveled cunt than BoJo.

E1 of "The Peripheral" tonight. Reading the book again concurrently to see how the adaption goes. It's going to be tough to capture the existential dread that Gibson brings to his futurism, and they've already changed one of the key parts, but it's worth pursuing so far.

the premise which you constructed. i never mentioned illuminatis, nor do i believe in them
Yes very good, you never mentioned the Illuminati. Your point was that there is some controlling force in the background across world governments

This is the premise with which I disagree.

ok, but you still missed its point
Oh no, I got the point you were trying to make, I just disagree entirely with the premise of it.

Brilliant bit of Swedish techno out last month. Ingenvart (last track) is a peach.

No confidence motion introduced by labour would require a significant number of Tory rebels to vote for it, and probably themselves out of the job.
The alternative is sit tight, guaranteed cushy number for the next couple of years hiding from constituents and getting their ducks in a row for when they're shitcanned at the next GE. They're just going to do that.
Also corbyn had 0 political nous, he was thick as pigshit, and also essentially another useless public schoolboy cunt. Also completely spent force, will never be on the front benches again. Not relevant anymore
I didn't realize the Tories had such a commanding lead in Parliament. Yeah you guys are just going to have to take it up the arse for a bit.
I mean if Corbyn didn't have any political nous, then Labour are in a worse state than I imagined over there.

Yes the Illuminati are well and truly in control.

We don't get a choice m8. The system is fukt. They could carry on like this till Jan 2025 and there are currently no legal ways to prevent it. Just an endless cycle of fat arsed public schoolboys taking turns at being Mr Prime Minister for a month, if they want
If there was ever a time for a no confidence vote…
I suppose that means having competent leadership in Labour, and I’m not fully up to speed on where that party is at. Corbyn is too toxic for the British press (and resultant fuckwits who swallow the shite your red tops publish), but he seems to be the only one with any political nous.

Wasn't the Supercodex CD released as part of the Superposition project?

Just listening to the single for the first time - don't know how I missed this thread.
Really makes me want to go out and buy about 15 subs with an amp to match.
The voice reminds me of UT1-dot

If the Brits vote him back in, they deserve everything that's coming to them. Although this may spur Armando Iannuci to write some more political satire, which is a win for everyone.

if you read neal stephenson.. in one of his recent books "Fall or Dodge in Hell" which is a good book.. there's a section on culture and social media and what it becomes.. he said he had that part written then trump got elected and social media was so much crazier than what he'd written so he trashed and wrote that part over again. his vision of it in that book is amazing and fuckn crazy as hell... but lines up really well as a trajectory where shit could go.
loved "fall or dodge in hell", the social media bit with the feeds and algorithms based on class and being able to afford a personal curator was pretty good.

it's not about people smart enough to know what's happening and avoid those behaviors.
I dislike this argument - I don't think those people are dumb. I think a lot of them are racist assholes who are scared that their way of life is changing because of demographic shifts and can't adapt, this simply allows them to stoke their own belief system.

If I wasn't obtuse I'd be acute, and I'm definitely not that. (a non-real answer)

For sure. Those photos of people at facebook or wherever sitting in an office, while all wearing VR headsets is fucking hilarious and very sad all at the same time.
I haven't watched Ghost Dog in a long time - I love Dead Man though.
I can't go find him on twitter cause now the link in the original post you made isn't showing up either in mobile or on the laptop - I guess he's right. tech is a failure.

Social Media's Effects On Our Minds & Lives
in General Banter
Posted
I tried it a couple of years ago and it was pretty dead. Maybe musky buying twitter will push more people to the platform. I think social media is goin gto go through a significant rejig over the next decade as people rethink their relationship with social media and what it means.
I think this article raises some interesting points on a potential future for VR and social media. Also of course, William Gibson's Bridge Trilogy (Virtual Light, Idoru, All Tomorrow's Parties) are a particularly relevant look at what might come about (as well as lots of manga/anime but I think Gibson really captures it from some of the sociological aspect). Lol sorry, not relevant at all to your question @auxien but I just got on a tangent.
