just reposting the 2014 leaked email about how Scott Alexander (Scott Siskind) had specifically intended Slate Star Codex to promote neoreaction and race science

not a single person denied the email, they were just outraged at the leaker for breaking confidence

Yudkowsky even declared that they should be shunned, lol

this email is surprisingly little spoken of, I keep finding SSC/ACX readers who've never heard of it. for once the rationalists had the good sense not to fuss about it

i keep pointing centrists at this email and they can't reconcile the SSC article they liked with the writer of SSC explicitly saying he's trying to make them more racist

reasons to keep the fuckin receipts

What I like best about #mastodon

i wrote a polite letter to @tailscale asking them to suggest 9.9.9.10 (no filtering) instead of 9.9.9.9 (filtered) because clearly quad9 cannot be trusted with picking the third parties that can potentially break your DNS

was wondering why resolving plushy.love returns NXDOMAIN, turns out i was using quad9's 9.9.9.9 and instead of Giving Me The A Records In The Order They Were Posted they use a bunch of third parties to determine 'threats' to block

plushy.love was blocked by bfore . ai, which advertises something called "PreCrime"

ok here's my idea for a fuck google webring

• your website must be a personal website with some form of content beyond contact and preferably a little more than a portfolio
• if your content updates regularly, rss would be nice
• webrings your site are a part of should be displayed prominently even if in a subpage, with appropriate links to previous/next pages
• your website must not break at a lack of javascript
• bonus points for old browser compatibility (FF2.0/RetroZilla/Classilla)

Game and Watch mains are the type of blokes to miraculously float towards the aroma of a freshly baked pie.

Game and watch mains are the type of mfs to go "wiwiwiwi" when sleeping and have a big bubble on their nose

Game and Watch mains are the type of blokes to not fall until they inevitably look down

Game and Watch mains the type of guys who's hearts and eyes extend from their bodies when they see a sexy lady

Game and Watch mains are the type of people to have steam coming out of them when they get angry.

Game and Watch mains are the kind of fellows who's nemeses paint the image of a tunnel into the side of a wall to trick them, only for those Game and Watch mains to run right through the tunnel that got painted and encourage their nemesis to try to do the same thing, at which point they of course slam into the wall, as they had hoped the Game and Watch main would do instead.
