Fuck Social Media!

I killed off my x.com account. I know that people are gonna people, but fuck…enough is enough. I tried to follow only music, and musicians. Didn’t help, still had to hear bullshit politics.

I have chosen to NOT support either side, I don’t give a fuck what any of them say. So…gone! I’m a member of 4 forums online. Two of them are guitar based. The others, Bronco Sport and Honda motorcycles. I feel better already.

I had deleted my Meta accounts last year. That’s Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram. GONE and I still feel that I made the right choice. The only thing I miss at times is FB Marketplace, but it has deteriorated over the last couple years.

AI Might Be Why We Haven’t Found Aliens

This video makes so much GOOD sense. Our galaxy holds hundreds of billions of stars, and in more than sixty years of listening we have never heard from anyone. In 1965, a codebreaker who worked alongside Alan Turing predicted a machine that would be “the last invention” humanity would ever need. Sixty years later, the world’s biggest companies are trying to build it, and some scientists now ask whether every civilization builds one… and whether that is why the sky is so quiet.

This is the story of the transformer, the scaling laws, the race to AGI, the researchers who disagree about all of it, and the Fermi paradox.
