A glass of lemonade has extra spark in the middle of the Sahara.

Quantum Unicorn Chromodynamics

They could have built an actual spaceship for all that money Talk about simulacrum. Star Citizen is the Dinseyland of space.

My physics TOE involves a cock-in-a-bottle. No analogy. If you just grant me one cock-in-a-bottle, I can derive all of space-time from there.

I like Regent and Defect the least. Too much gimmickery. I like the other 3. Necro is a great addition. I like the challenge of Silent. It's hard. I know of Terraria but somehow it never appealed to me.

Christainity is like jerking off to porn cartoons when you could be having sex. But they are addicted to the cartoons and refuse to let them go.

Once you understand God you don't need the Bible.

Checking the mote in thy brother's eye?

Star Citizen is the biggest scam in gaming. Lol.

That's a dangerous notion. The biggest devils are unabashedly proud of who they are.

It's just dumb to start a trade war with Canada. That's what's called an own-goal.

Of course

Of course there is a valid aspect to it. But let's not pretend it's all valid. There is obscuratism and pretension in it too. All that cross-referencing is also incestuously self-serving, a mote around one's irony tower. When Langan throws arcane jargon at you, now you know how academia feels to normies. A taste of one's own medicine

The issue is not about crypto. It's about the macro economics of the AI tech bubble. Even if crypto had excellent fundamentals, which it don't, it will still crash along with the AI bubble. Investing in crypto right now is like pissing into a hurricane.

Langan's paper is so jargony that almost no one understands it but himself. He would be wise to write in a simpler, clearer way. It is like he is talking to himself, without seeing that others aren't following. Then again, academics love their pretentious jargon. That is an ugly habit he picked up from them.
