[08:10] schestowitz >>> We emailed briefly and you once mentioned in an email that you were visiting London. But you mentioned this at the bottom of the post and I missed it.

[08:10] schestowitz >> It would still be feasible to meet "IRL" one day.

[08:10] schestowitz > You'll have to be quick, I've been operated on twice and have various ailments caused by the covid vaccine. The NHS sends someone round once a week to check-up I'm not dead yet. At least that's what he said outside the front-door, not realizing I could hear him through the intercom.

[08:10] schestowitz >>> As I mentioned and over time, legitimate online dissent is being crushed. The last free forum is Xitter and the powers that be seem desperate to shut it down.

[08:10] schestowitz >> dissent is being crushed in that site too. Also see:http://techrights.org/o/2020/06/08/twitter-cancel-culture/

[08:10] schestowitz > Seems to be pushing AI a lot. From my experience it's already being used to narrow the range of thought. In the Orwellian sense. for instance, I asked ChatGPT to tell a joke featuring Jesus, Budda and Mo. It had no problem with the first two but refused on the third as it would be disrespectful. When I pointed out this contradiction, ChatGPT crashed and reported me to the mothership. Same with abortion and other contemporaneity wo

[08:10] schestowitz > According to Wikipedia, Microsoft Windows was not designed with the Internet in mind. This is of course BS. I posted a doc by Nathan Myhrvold describing Windows NT asthe ecommerce platform. This was of course removed. I believe there's a copy on techrights. The point is, the record is being scrubbed as we speak. And with everything going to be funneled through ClippyAI, it's going to get worse.
