I fixed this. #112 works now.

Hmmm... must be a typo in the link. I'll fix that. Thanks for reporting it.

I will be posting longer content in the Vault as well. Videos that are too long for Instagram and TikTok. I just recorded a 20-minute long clip which will be posted in the Vault soon. So the Vault will consist of shorts but also dozens of original longer videos which won't ever be shared on social media. I am often way too limited by Instagram's 3-minute long format. So I plan on making many 5-15 minute long clips in the future to add more value to the Vault.

That is beyond my coding ability. That requires managing a database. You can bookmark links using your browser by right-clicking on links. Perhaps in the future if many people use the Vault then I could hire a programmer to add that.

@LordFall Okay. I understand. I will make courses too.

Steven Hassan is not teaching epistemology. He is teaching about cults. And his teachings are spot-on. If you want to actually understand what a cult is, read his book.

@Carl-Richard I will throw every human under the bus on epistemology. If you don't like it, tough. I am the standard of what counts as proper epistemology.

Just because you encounter ideas that you disagree with does not make a thing a cult. That is peak stupidity.

No. That is the proper definition created by cult researcher and cult deprogramming expert Steven Hassan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Hassan You speak of things you don't even understand.

Yes he did. Her caretakers were obviously writing for her.

@Carl-Richard That is not what defines a cult. A cult is a fringe group that uses deliberate mind control techniques to extract money, sex, and power from its user base. A cult is about abusing and exploiting its members in a pyramid like structure. Fringe ideas does not a cult make. Actualized is not a religion. If you don't understand that. then what do you understand? It is shameful that I even need to explain this to anyone here. The epistemic standards of Actualized.org are higher than anything found in science or academia or anything any YouTuber comprehends. The YouTubers who criticize me are epistemic morons and this should be obvious to anyone who studies my work. No one on Earth will teach you epistemology deeper than I will. That is, if you are willing to learn and aren't too cool for school.

This is false. Watch the video. The evidence of fraud is every blatant. Not from her, but from her caretakers. People with her condition do not grow up to be great authors because it is virtually impossible. She did not have the physical ability to write the things she is credited for. She was the original example of using AI to write your books for you and then claiming you wrote it.

A thousand years from now they will think I'm an angel sent down from the heavens

China does some things rights. However, I am not envious of the Chinese system. I would rather live in America, even if I wasn't already successful. Authoritarian crackdown on billionaires is not exactly a good thing. It might feel good to you, but it isn't a healthy or fair system. It's a corrupt system. These billionaires are shaken down and bullied by the communist regime. America would be a better system if we just outlawed any corporate money in politics. It is not so complicated to create a few laws that eliminate billionaire influence of elections. I like this solution better than switching to Marxism, which is very impractical.

They would have had better results with plain old capitalism. All of Marxism was a distraction. Capitalism worked in America and it would have worked in China, Korea, Russia, Cuba, etc. South Korea vs North Korea proves that. As Marx himself said, you can't reach socialism without first going through capitalism. Marxists don't listen to Marx.

Yeah, but it was tried and it didn't work. If you try it again it will fail again and the rich will continue existing.

Of course we know that. But Marxism doesn't solve that problem. Overthrowing the rich does not work. The way to get power is through business and creative labor, not through protesting and overthrowing people. If you are sick of being powerless, build your own business and create useful work. Marxism is not going to make you wealthy.

Sounds too annoying. Browser needs to have a right-click on link context menu to undo visitation.

Yeah, it goes to show how most parts of history are just parroted, not questioned. Makes you wonder how much of human history is just made up shit. Can you imagine what kind of nonsense they made up about the Buddha or Jesus or George Washington? Great example of conformity and group-think.

The thing I never liked about HTML visited link highlighting is that if you accidentally click on the wrong link, it gets highlighted and can't be undone. But those are just the limits of HTML. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Please PM me your old and new email address so I can fix it.

I have made this change. Visited clips are now highlighted. To see the effect, SHIFT+Refresh your browser window for the clips page.

Most people cannot because success is not for most people. The work, creativity, and ambition required to create success is beyond like 80% of the population. They are just not serious enough to do it. That is why most people work lame, mindless 9-5 jobs. Then you are at the mercy of your boss and the economy.

I will add a visited highlight to the links. Well, that is sorta what life is. But you should work on creating a better, more enjoyable life for yourself, since there is nothing better to do. Please start a new thread if you want to discuss your personal issues further. This thread is not good for that.

Sure. I am open to it. I have not yet gotten to TikTok. I will test how my clips do there at some point. Yes. The Vault misses nothing. Part of the purpose of the Vault is for people who want to avoid Instagram and TikTok slop. Yes. Everything under the sun. Less than 30% are on enlightenment. Many are on epistemology. No. That does not seem feasible at this time. Perhaps if I add a lot more clips then some kind of categories will be more feasible. It is hard to invent useful categories for all the clips. I will have to contemplate how that can be done. Categories can feel artificial, some clips could be double categorized, etc. Finding good categories for all clips is tricky. There are a few. No topic is avoided. But 95% of clips are not about psychedelics. Hard to say. Watch my Instagram clips as samples of exactly the kind of content you will get more of. My understanding of this domain is so deep at this point that speaking about it is effortless and even fun. Like playing a video game. I could generate 1000 clips in a month. The hard part is keeping them all oraganized and publishing them all. I spent more time on publishing the 330 clips than on recording them. To render and publish 330 clips is a grindy pain in the ass.
