This is Jeff, a monster from a video game named The Cycle: Frontier
Jeff was the community nickname for him. “Marauder” was the real name.
Anyway when the game shut down I was mildly sad that, in a sense, Jeff had died.
Anyway the stuff around 4o is weird but on some level I do understand it

Play in Server Slam from Feb 26 - Mar 2. The Server Slam is a slice of Marathon’s gameplay. Enough to get comfortable, not enough to see everything.

“Hyperreality” was a 35 year long sociological experiment conducted by Université Paris Nanterre. The study is now complete, thank you for your time.

The ai debate on here is wild. There are a lot of anti-ai people who think it's crazy that anyone could be pro-ai, there are a few pro-ai people who think it's crazy that anyone could be anti-ai, and a middle group trying to realistically assess the situation. All three seem to hate each other

This is what the gop is going to face for the next 3 years. Stuttering delusional old white guys dumbfounded when someone replies “of course I am in favor of my constitutional rights, why do you hate this country?” every time they assert the secret police should be able to kill you for talking back.
RON JOHNSON: Did you ever encourage people to go out there and exercise their First Amendment rights?

fwiw i do hear this one from time to time. but yeah i would expect it to be a bit larger. i think it doesn't get a lot of attention because a lot of critical folks are more in the "never use" mindset and so sort of reject the premise here
