software tinkerer and aspiring rationalist. transhumanist and alterhuman

I try to be very careful about CWing things. sometimes I make mistakes but I want to make my posts as safe to read as possible

I sometimes post NSFW/kinky/lewd things behind CWs. this should go without saying but if you're a minor please do not interact with anything lewd/NSFW that I post

I have very limited energy and am very shy so it might take me a long time to reply to messages sometimes, or I might not be able to reply at all. this is kind of an "output only" account for the most part, but I'm hopeful that I can change that over time

I sometimes use curly braces to {clearly show where a grammatical phrase begins and ends}, like that. you can think of them like parenthesis in code or math, except they operate on grammar instead

hard scifi as in ‘technical accuracy” is alright, but consider: hard scifi as in “frequent infodumps where you get to learn about cool science things”. that’s the kind that I like

@pharmafemboy okay yeah I was thinking that 170 was a lot lol. I tend to accumulate digital crud like this, but also I’m just very obsessed with games, so that makes sense

chat is it normal to have 170 games in your Steam wishlist?

I love any communications software that formats conversations as a tree structure. that is by far the most intuitive format for me. so far only Akkoma and reddit seem able to do that (maybe Plemora too? I’m not sure which features are Akkoma-specific) but I would really love to see that in more software

an accessibility feature that I would love to see in more games is the ability to just make the game run slower. like Smash Ultimate at full speed is fucking unfathomable to me, but playing it at 2/3rds speed is pretty fun!

Question about for if it's ok?

I see a lot of very creative and funny alt texts being written, but sometimes I think they are not really describing the image or letting you make your own mind up about whether you find it cute or funny or interesting.

When I write alt text I try to just describe the image. I imagine I am letting you know what the image looks like, not whether its funny or whatever because that's up to you to decide.

So my question is which is better for you? A literal description or something more elaborate?

I would really love if there was a math website that organized topics as a dependency tree. so you could tell it “I want to learn how to do a linear regression” and it would tell you all of the topics you would need to understand in order to understand how to do a linear regression, and those topics would link to pages that explained them

I say that because right now it feels like if I want to learn what (E.G.) a linear regression is and how to do it, I’ll need to buy and study several entire college textbooks. and that’s:

  • expensive
  • boring
  • mentally draining
  • also I won’t retain most of that information because most of it doesn’t feel relevant to my goal

I also just don’t learn that way. I learn things by doing them, by working on projects. I don’t want to learn a bunch of abstract math concepts that I don’t see the value of and can’t connect to reality. I want to organically find a real-world math problem and then learn how to solve it

praise and criticism for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
Show content

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but my cursory experience with Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has me kinda feeling like it’s somewhat good? and even somewhat true to the original spirit of Star Trek

specifically it seems to have the most important elements of a Star Trek show which are:

  • presenting viewers with a utopia and making it clear that it’s possible for us to achieve this utopia
  • showing that Starfleet is an organization of explorers and peaceful negotiators
  • just generally trying to be inspiring, positive, and uplifting

I missed all of that, and it’s good to have it back

with that said, I’m not going to be able to keep watching it (I only watched S01E01 and S02E01 to get a feel for the show) because there are many things that I don’t like too:

  • the slop levels have markedly increased compared to the TNG and DS9 eras, and that’s saying something because there were entire TNG/DS9 episodes that were nothing but braindead filler slop. but yeah all of the writing in this show just feels like it was rushed out the door - even in the moments when the captain is meant to give an inspiring speech, where just a little bit more time in the oven would have done a lot
  • the characters are all immature for the sake of comedy and/or drama I guess, even though an important part of Star Trek IMO is how much society has progressed emotionally and interpersonally
  • it’s a little bit irony-poisoned which unfortunately seems like it might be a necessity for modern TV shows :/ it’s doing that postirony thing where every moment of sincerity or positivity could be interpreted as “haha funi parody” or it could also be interpreted seriously
  • it does that modern TV show thing where every quiet scene feels oppressively tense which I find exhausting
  • the show goes out of its way to be disturbing, seemingly at least once per episode, because I guess that’s what people expect from scifi these days?
  • also every character has a super edgy ultra traumatic Baldur’s Gate 3 backstory that they will not shut up about. the show centers around a whole crew of highly traumatized barely-functional people who are emotionally immature and I find that frustrating and very un-Trek. and the show fixates on this as if it’s going to hook me with the characters’ emotional immaturity and unrelatable scifi trauma

@shijikori ohhh I am very glad that you like them! if you make some kind of lewd art out of them then of course I would love to see it :P

tbh maybe I should post about my lewd ideas more often - I have a lot of them although many of them just boil down to variations on monsterfucking, mind control, and orgasm control lol

I want to spend subjective hours trapped in a time loop of being right on the edge while every nerve in my body is on fire with pleasure, then spend hours in a time loop of cumming endlessly until my mind breaks under the strain

non-queer fantasies are probably like: I want [a girl] to [spank me] [and then we fuck]

meanwhile I’m over here fantasizing about an unfathomable eldritch entity ripping me out of space-time to use me in its pocket dimension and violate me in ways I will never fully understand

are Trump voters ever going to understand the suffering they have caused? will they ever be apologetic? or will they spend their entire lives patting themselves on the back for helping to “make America great”

I hope they all fucking die tomorrow and I hope it hurts
