Disclosure Day trailer 2026 (Spielberg)
Disclosure Day trailer 2026 (Spielberg)The "art" that Hollywood makes these days is so poor that I get more enjoyment from watching criticism of it than I do from watching the art.
We have entered full late-stage capitalist post-modernity, where the reviews are more interesting than the art

Disclosure Day trailer 2026 (Spielberg)
Disclosure Day trailer 2026 (Spielberg)There is too much Hollywood trash these days not to consider reviews.
I am not saying I know it is bad. I am saying the evidence points to it being not so good.

Let’s Take Looksmaxxing Seriously
Let’s Take Looksmaxxing SeriouslyNosejob is only worth it if you have an especially big or problematic nose. Not a regular nose.
Girls don't care about this as much as fools like Clav think.
You will get way more results from learning game than looksmaxxing. Pickup is way healtheir than looksmaxxing. Even caring about your looks is already terrible inner game.

Let’s Take Looksmaxxing SeriouslyI don't doubt he believes his own BS.
That's hard to quantify. I don't have a number for you.
Depends on the costs.
Minor stuff is worth it like hair transplant.

Let’s Take Looksmaxxing Seriously
Let’s Take Looksmaxxing SeriouslyThat's easy to answer:
Telling people they are too ugly to get laid is very hurtful and depressing.
No one wants to hear that they won't get laid because they are too ugly.
So this topic cannot be talked about seriously in public. Similar to God.

why is sleeping with prostitutes a trap ?
why is sleeping with prostitutes a trap ?Prostitutes are low consciousness people and hang around other low consciousness people. So they can scam you, drug you, and worse. You are engaging in business with criminals, which is always dicey.

Am I totally inferring the link between two events? Causation question...
Am I totally inferring the link between two events? Causation question...Well, every atom is pulling on every other atoms in the universe so of course all causality is grossly simplified down. However, the simplification does work. You understand that if you step on a dog that you caused it pain, not some random atom on the other side of the universe.

Let’s Take Looksmaxxing Seriously
Let’s Take Looksmaxxing SeriouslyThe absurdity of this is that Clav has exceptional genetics. You will never look as good as he naturally looks with him doing zero lookmaxxing.
His looksmaxxing is NOT what makes him look good.
It would be like if I was born with a footlong dick and made a channel about how to grow your dick with dickmaxxing. But that's not how I got my dick.
Clav is lucky to have great genetics and his looksmaxxing is just performative online antics for purposes of clickbait. I promise you his looksmaxxing got him zero extra sex. Other than through the fame of his channel. No girl is sleeping with Clav because he looksmaxxed himself. This idea is laughable.

When do men start being unnatractive when it comes to looks?
When do men start being unnatractive when it comes to looks?Age is a terrible way to measure attractiveness.
George Clooney is still attractive at 65.
Some people age much worse than others.
40s is no problem if you got other things going for you.
Girls will date way older as long as the guy has value.

Attracting opposite sex: Is it all about looks and intelligence?
Attracting opposite sex: Is it all about looks and intelligence?It's not all you need to know, but it's a solid skeleton.
Look for quality paid pickup courses. This is not an area to be cheap. You want the best training. Your time is worth more than a few hundred bucks.
Buy a few pickup courses, study, and apply.

Deconstructing pick up: Women want good looking men with wealth and status.
Deconstructing pick up: Women want good looking men with wealth and status.I had that and it got me no girls.
You can't get girls if you don't learn to socialize. Pickup is just the skill of socializing.
Many guys get rich only to realize they still can't get girls because they sacrificed social skills for success.
Girls don't sleep with the rich guy, they sleep with the fun social guy.
Good looks are great, but if you don't have them you still need a way of getting girls.

Example of dark tetrad from Aba the Youtuber
Example of dark tetrad from Aba the YoutuberShe wasn't even dark tetrad or close. She just has lots of trauma and abusive past.
She couldn't control her emotions but she was a sweet caring person underneath that.
Dark tetrad will fuck you up.

Wilber’s sliding scale of consciousness
Wilber’s sliding scale of consciousnessEnlightenment is simply independent of development.
A chimpanzee could have an enlightenment.
Awakening and development simply need to be treated as independent variables, orthogonal axes.

The real reason governments allow immigrants?
The real reason governments allow immigrants?Because every developed nation needs them for slave labor, but they don't like the cultural and ethnic changes this brings.
Americans want it both ways: They want the cheap labor of Mexicans, but not their culture, skin color, and language.
It is like hiring an immigrant lawnmower because you are too lazy to mow your own lawn, but also hating him at the same time because he isn't your kind.

He's not doing this for health, he's doing it for significance. The ego wants to feel significant.

Russell Brand In Hot Water
Russell Brand In Hot WaterI bet Russell is a pretty decent person today. The problem is that he was not a decent person 25 years ago.
She fell in love with him as he is today. Can't fault her for that.

Russell Brand In Hot Water
Russell Brand In Hot WaterSo many ways. He talks like a Green person all the time. He's into that New Age Green spirituality and politics. At least he was before this Christian/right-wing phase.
Russell has been ranting against the evils of capitalism for a long time. He's not some stupid conservative. He understands many left-wing issues and causes. His recent changes are just him surviving against the rape allegations. In a sense his old Green self was more honest before the survival pressure-cooker cornered him like a rat.
A cornered rat regresses to lower stages to defend itself.
That's what I see Russell doing. But he still has much Green in him.

Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread
Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-ThreadNew Space, in a top research centre. There’s currently a big shift happening with nanosatellite Low Earth Orbit constellations. In the past, only space agencies like NASA or a few large organizations could afford to build and operate satellites, which were typically large, very expensive, and placed in high orbits to last for decades.
Now things are very different. Thanks to miniaturization and cheaper launch options, it’s possible to deploy small satellites for a few thousand euros each. This opens the door for much more flexible uses, from Earth observation to communications and scientific experiments. The trade-off is that these satellites are much simpler individually, so large-scale services (like global internet coverage) require hundreds or even thousands of them working together as a coordinated network.
This introduces a new engineering challenge: managing not just a single complex satellite, but an entire distributed ecosystem in orbit. Each satellite is already a layered system (hardware, software, onboard processing, and reconfigurable or programmable components) and when you multiply that by a large constellation, the complexity grows significantly.
My research focused on this problem. I developed a theoretical observability framework across all these layers; meaning a structured way to monitor and understand what is happening inside each layer of the satellite and across the whole constellation. The idea is to define how information should be collected at every level, how it can be communicated between heterogenous layers, and how system-wide behavior can be inferred efficiently from that data, given very short windows of earth communication.
After developing the theoretical model, I implemented and tested it in a real nanosatellite payload, and also used a virtualized environments to simulate large-scale network interactions. This allowed me to validate that the approach is technically feasible in realistic conditions.
I was the first to openly publish a solution to this problem. It is believed that companies such as SpaceX have developed similar capabilities internally, but because they provide a significant competitive advantage, those solutions are not publicly disclosed. The good thing of public research centres is that I got all the very expensive infrastructure needed to conduct my research and then the solution was freely published (after of course very well mentioning in my paper whose funds helped me to do so). This kind of work is particularly important as New Space companies continue to scale up the number of satellites in orbit and need more efficient ways to manage them.
After I finished this work I left the research centre, I was just there for the mental high challenge.
PD: Really bad experience to write a paper and get it published. I particularly disliked by how autistically peaky the format and paper had to be written in, you make a wrong table format and a year long work doesn't get published. What most annoyed me was finishing all the work, writing the paper and then see how all the research bosses and higher peers sneakily signed the document as co-authors and you couldn't do shit about that. Of course some colleagues I wrote myself the name as they really contributed with their expertise, but the other 8 who just signed, lmao. It's me who has been nights without sleep trying to solve this problem, not you who just signed the paper; I thought to myself.

Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread
Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-ThreadOne of the most eye opening realisations I had about how truly science works is undergoing the process to get published in the Institution of Engineering and Technology.
Science stops being this glamorous champion of truth and it's seen as any other company, with self-interests, money and reputation hungry, and ass tight about the way you should do science to get published, both in format and content.
My colleagues at that time where quite critique about the system, the older the researcher the more skeptical, when the youngsters asked how could it be made better, they answered we've tried and contemplated how to improve the system, but for now it's the best we can do given the conditions of science and economy.
If anything, it's sad that many brilliant mind get trapped like rats in maze of breadcrumbs.

Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread
Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-ThreadI don't know enough about their organizations to make that claim.
Perhaps they are, perhaps you are being too sloppy with your use of that word.
Just because someone runs a spiritual community does not make it a cult. They need to be doing some kind of manipulative mind control on top of it to exploit their followers. I don't know to what extent Teal, Aaron, or Mooji do that.
Benhito certainly seems problematic and exploitative with his fans. I strongly dislike that. Charging your fans enormous amounts of money is a huge no-no. So is keeping multiple girlfriends and framing sex with them as spiritual healing. That is plain corruption.
But regardless, Actualized.org is not like any spiritual community. I have no organization, I have no staff, I don't exploit you guys, and I don't control any one.

Do ALL celebrities actually have top-level work ethic?
Do ALL celebrities actually have top-level work ethic?Basically anyone who's mega-successful has a crazy work ethic. Because they had to work their ass off consistently for decades to get there.
The cost of mega-success is usually giving up your whole life for it. Which is why the most successful people are poorly spiritually developed. They sold their soul to the devil.
Which is why Jesus said that it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to get into heaven.
You will never become a celebrity without a crazy work ethic.

Criticism of Ken Wilber
Criticism of Ken WilberHaving read the criticisms in more depth, I want to underscore that many criticisms of Ken Wilber are foolish and that the bulk of his written work is as solid as can be.
Minor criticisms like his support for Andrew Cohen, Adi Da, and his over-emphasis of the Mean Green Meme and his political prescriptions are all knit-picks compared to the bulk of his written work, which is solid, and which has little to do with those things.
Don't get distracted by the politics surrounding the Integral Institute. Just focus on his written work, which is genius.
And as always, don't expect any teacher to be perfect in their embodiment or conduct.
The criticism's of Ken Wilber found on the following website, for example, are pure BS:
