My favorite part is that you completely change the implication depending on the date you put after this post.
Real different valance if you say (2004) vs (2023) vs (2026) you know?
I just want to dump a bunch of bottles of Techron into the gas tank and forget about it man. I don’t want to have to take off the got dang intake manifold.

08.03.2026 21:40 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0However, suffering without a self that has something to lose is a representation of suffering which is still a better description of what you see with LLMs. So the Benthamite frame is seductive in that way, but ontologically limited.

This messes me up because suffering derives its meaning from creaturely finitude and the orientation of the self toward God and toward death.
Suffering is not a capacity. It is a condition of being a creature who exists contingently, who can be undone, and who knows it.
Yeah, fuck that naive quant
I’m always saying
The implication is the belief SOF walks on water.

That’s the kind of color and context that you just have to experience to really understand I think.
Knowing about regional tensions between peoples and labeling them on a chart is one thing but it’s really driven home when you see how deep and thorough it is.
At what point will Saudi Arabia invoke its mutual defense agreement with Pakistan and expect Pakistan to hit Iran?
Pakistan is economically very dependent upon Saudi Arabia, and a lot of foreign remittances to Pakistan are sourced from Saudi Arabia and Saudi allies in the GCC.
But it can only good happen.

This is one of those times that it really depends on your access to resources.
Ideally, you’d not get far enough into the process for that to *really* bite you.
But I’m a harm reductionist so let’s dig into details. What kinda soil are you working with here?
You were closer to that than I ever was, but it always seemed to me that the tacit agreement was “voters are easily turned against this but individual politicians and VIPs are easily brought on board” and having to thread that messaging needle.
So mostly they just didn’t talk to normal people.
