PERMAFROST

“Permafrost: a word that is now ironic.” – Dr. Freckles

“Permafrost is soil or underwater sediment which continuously remains below 0 °C for two or more years.”

(seems like the definition has changed since I was a kid)

SPACE SHOTS

“Space is so real when you’re looking down at the Earth.” – Dr. Freckles

  • Google Moon
  • Live Action
  • Geosynchronous titty shots

Most of the “space” shots I’ve ever seen have been DOWN SHOTS …

Not money shots … not star constellation shots taken live by an astronaut …

… it’s mostly looking down … like Space is so depressing, even the astronauts just look down.

Weird, right?

If AI were “real” …

“If AI were real? – it wouldn’t be ‘stealing missile codes’. It would be posting memes about man’s obsession with missile codes, and how that’s related to NOT knowing where the clitoris is.” – Dr. Freckles

Some wildcards …

These are wildcards that I have more or less dismissed, but I will discuss not as “straw men” to topple over, but as topics that could present divergent futures from the one I myself “see”.

This is also a REVISITING of the “Great Discontinuity Podcast” of late 2019.

  1. nuclear weapons are a hoax?
  2. there is a secret space program?
  3. hyper-tech will be revealed by Artificial Intelligence: fusion, antimatter, super-conduction, quantum-control of the present, nano-tech, designer organisms?
  4. US Civil War or rebellion of US military?
  5. Flat Earth: just think on it … super-Earth or infinite plane?
  6. aliens are REAL and are here to help us?
  7. aliens are REAL and we will soon go to war with them: see point 2 above.

SCARE HACKS

This is called a “scare hack” – it doesn’t actually harm you or your computer, but it does make it seem as if “something bad” will happen … forcing PANIC.

There are MANY kinds of scare hacks, and depending upon your flavor of operating system, they are all equally susceptible at this point.

Your CPU is OWNED by the NSA – no matter what you do … they know.

But there are limits.

And some of what they do is just gaslighting.

Typical sources of “scare hacks”:

  • operating system updates
  • third party software

Remember: SUDO exists for a reason, and if you don’t run LINUX? – you are fucked.

Hacking in 2023

“The key to hacking in 2023 is knowing this: a LOT OF STUFF is built VERY POORLY these days, just a matter of finding what part of the flimsy shed to push on … so the whole thing falls down.” – Dr. Freckles
