  1. Where do your buildings come from?
  2. Apparently you've never heard of photography or photoshop.
  3. It is a common myth that Egyptians used slaves to build their stuff.
  4. Connect with the joy of learning and studying reality. Otherwise you'll be a dumb human and your life will not go so well.
  5. https://www.actualized.org/articles/understanding-duality-part-1
  6. Your mind gets better at with massive experience. Some of my friends who game a lot reached the point where they can basically read lips.
  7. Thank God this clown lost. There is still hope for democracy
  8. What's silly is that this royal cosplay still takes place in the 21st century. Chimps wearing crowns.
  9. Of course you are dreaming others' suffering. You are even dreaming your own suffering.
  10. Dude, you have very fucked up ideas of women, relationships, and sex. Learn to contect with women. And no, there is no point in "saving yourself".
  11. That is quite stunning. Some people just seem to have natural resistance to it.
  12. Making AAA games and films will never be that easy or cheap. It will still takes lots of work even with insanely powerful AI tools. Yeah, but the issue is that the uninspired, overproduced nonsense is what the mass public loves. They do not want deep films, they want mindless popcorn flicks. AAA studios cater to those masses because that's where the real money is made. Even if you can press a button and make an artsy film in one day, who's gonna watch it? Don't forget, half the budget on a major movie or game is marketing.
  13. All the most innovative people in the world moved to America over the last 100 years. Countries experienced a brain-drain. Germany is a good example. All the best Nazi scientists moved to the US and worked for NASA and the A-bomb project. And consider me. If Russia had a decent political environment then I could have stayed in Russia and been counted as one of theirs. But the brain-drain brought me to America.
  14. I don't disagree that 40% of what he talks about will be very helpful for young men. The problem is that it's laced with toxicity, and these young men are such mindless chimps that they will get infected with the toxicity. This is really a classic case of toxic masculinity. #1 rule of getting good with women: respect women. Teaching success with women requires adherence to ethics, otherwise it becomes toxic as the ego goes mad with its lust for sex at any cost. A wise and developed person could listen to Tate and cherrypick the gold. But most of the people who follow him are utter fools.
  15. I could make an entire course on how to appreciate sex. And it would change your whole life. But I got better things to do.
  16. He's not full solid Yellow, but he definitely exhibits some admirable Yellow traits, like his ability to think outside the box of progressive dogma. He clearly sees Green's biases. He's also good at seeing things from various points of view. Of course he has a lot of immature Orange still that holds him back. And he's not deeply aware of his own biases. He has some brilliant moments, and then some cringey ones where he gets too closed-minded and defensive.
  17. Yeah, well, I reject your human distinction because I seek a more holistic understanding.
  18. If the Taliban tweeted something that violates Twitter's TOS, I'm sure they would get banned. What's truly disturbing is that the Taliban has better political decorum than the American President.
  19. You're right. Of course it's not so simple. However, most people should experience some very mystical stuff on enough LSD. I struggle to understand how a person cannot.
  20. Actually, it is. If you were truly conscious of the beauty of porn, you would cry. You do not understand what porn is. You're just wanking to it like a monkey on crack and then complaining.
  21. Yeah, that's a big problem. But also keep in mind, once these corporations get their hands on AI tools, they could just use them to churn out the same old shit, just at lower cost to themselves. But these AI tools should empower smaller creators and small teams, helping them to compete with giant corporate budgets. This situation is very similar to what YouTube did for broadcasting. Now small creators have a chance to compete with the likes of CNN. I would love to create a video game. I know I could create a great one. But it's just so fucking expensive and time-consuming that it's impractical for me. And there's millions of people around the world who'd like to do the same but they never will because it's just too costly. Just think of all the amazing art we are not getting.
  22. I predict that Adobe, Google, or Microsoft will buy all these guys out. This AI art tool needs to be seriously beefed up and scaled in order to reach its full potential. If I was an executive at Google I would invest a billion dollars into developing this thing.
  23. No! Yes, there are millions of artists, but most of them suck. If you truly created great art you would not have any problem surviving. The issue is that great art is extremely difficult to get right. And it's not a problem of lack of technical drawing skills, it's a problem of vision, execution of that vision, and taste. The majority of films, video games, novels, songs, etc are bad art. As an example, a truly great video game comes out once every few years at best. There is an enormous market for such video games. The supply cannot meet the demand. If only such games were easy to make. If you make something amazing, people will flock to you and even adore you. But you cannot achieve this amazingness via narrow technical skill. It's important for you guys to grasp that art is primarily about vision. The rest is niggly details.
