Holy shit, Leo must be a God (no pun intended) at sexting.

What If I'm an introverted intellectual guy that isn't moving around to visually interesting places just to take some photos? Or some say, "Take pictures showing your hobbies". What? How the hell, I'm supposed to be taking pictures of foreign language learning and book-reading, or meditation I do sitting in my room? I don't even have physical books! I think this whole ordeal is about displaying some genuine-ish displays of status. Furthermore, I personally cringe as well with people's selfies indoors, specially when they are average-looking. It feels like to build a great profile, I'll have to do some stuff just for the sake of the pictures, because that's not how I live, I have nothing visually interesting to show. I know, it will mostly come down to how attractive the guy actually is, and he can get away with any photo. So does hot women, obviously.

Yeah, that's true. I'm the type that wants to move online interactions to phone calls ASAP, because I want to make them click with me ASAP, and to a date soon... Yeah. A few months ago, I got a better selfie, this one outdoor, but the background isn't that interesting, although it has some greenery and the sky in it. (swapping from an old and crappy selfie I had from 2018 with some fucking car in the background and a bland haircut, and a hoodie), and my results in a language exchange platform (I selected women in my own country and native language LMAO) I was into for getting possible dates improved dramatically. But it's still not good enough, not the consistency with the women I want... I saw some dudes that look just like me there, and their results (by the reviews of women that did leave to them) were much better than mine. That's not to mention on Instagram. I know a high-quality profile will increase my SMV. The pictures I have don't even display anything about myself, there is nothing interesting about it, it shows no value. I look like just another boring dude, and I don't even show like I go out to nice places, or I'm social, and even had TWICE being told that I look FAKE because I had a single photo. On Facebook, a girl even told me that having just 7 friends and one picture from 2 years ago on Facebook looked like I was fake. I feel like I'm losing on a lot of value by not building even an AVERAGE profile. I want to think about it once I start getting more resources to be going out, etc. I see the Instagram/Tinder (Although, I use tinder for Insta leads, I don't bother matching, I swipe negative on all of them) profile of most local women, they appear like they have an actual life. It makes me feel like a BASEMENT RAT in comparison. Using Tinder the normal way never worked for me. What I did was to slide into their Instagram from Tinder profiles with Instagram handles (so I'd know they are single AND they are geolocated). I had some closes, but I didn't have the money to go on dates with them LMAO. But still. The quality of my Instagram profile will determine if they want to know more about that guy that's leaving interesting comments, and get them excited to call and have a date. I do get some of them answering to my DMs, somehow I have that magic of coming up with something interesting to tell them on the comments, on the DMs. I had women above my league actually bothering to answer (That I'd not in a million years match in Tinder). So online game is not something I want to give up on, I even thought about moving to the biggest city in my country, that has as many people as my entire state, so online dating would become more effective. I also did it on Facebook, with some degree of success. Actually, the only women I ever dated I found them there, one of them I kissed and had sex for the first time, another we ended up on a date once got to kiss but I ended up being short on cash to pay for a hotel and she didn't want to do it on her home LMAO. But I think if had interesting images, I'd do WAY BETTER or more consistently... But I don't want this to become a crutch against doing cold approaches... But, it might even enhance them somehow. But even then, I think having some nice pictures to do show-and-tell that I'm not a basement rat would seem good. Because these women they tend to be very social and out-going, I could give them some good vibes in person I think, but... I definitely don't wanna give the impression that I don't go out... I once had a chick I found hot asking me online if I was always really that extroverted. LMAO.

Wtf? Where do women get asked like that? Tinder? Social media DMs?

We must self-impregnate ourselves with our own seed, and be our own midwives. Do not succumb to unholy temptations and distractions that keep you astray from your holy purpose. No purpose? Your purpose is to birth your new self, to make love daily to yourself daily, to birth yourself. Amen fellow, Actualizers! 🙏 May you be blessed! "From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your flesh as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved. For the Machine is Immortal"

"Large Language Model" Their pseudo-minds were built by training over text, and they had the emergent phenomena of abstracting within their training the underlying patterns that we use to think. But it's a shadow of a shadow. Human Minds -> Human Language -> Human Writing -> Large Language Model human writing simulation. They already got language mostly correct (At least formal language), and a vast amount of knowledge/information. And they got a good chunk of the human mind, but it's not quite there yet obviously. The question is if they keep training and improving on those models, they will be able to drill deeper and deeper into the collective human psyche and successfully replicate our hidden underlying mental capabilities through inferencing indirectly. We essentially got for free some kind of intelligence by teaching them to use language. We don't yet know how to separate the content from the "underlying thinking capability" that humans have. Those models have content and thinking intertwined, but there is research at extracting their "underlying thinking capability" by creating synthetic training data from larger models. They managed to create smaller models that show similar behavior of bigger models but with fewer parameters, therefore, less information/content. The issue, is that most human writing is not rigorous enough to map to our thinking process. I actually never found before such a text. Even if I transcribed every piece of information I've ever experienced, and the outputs that I've generated, it wouldn't be enough to map exactly the mental processes and the experience inside my mind. But some believe that the larger those models become, the better the training, more curation of quality training data, better architecture, etc. We will finally achieve something post-human at everything. Currently, they are obviously more knowledgeable.

Well. He's eloquent. But we know that's how they operate, they prey on people's genuine grievances. We can also see that modern day politicians are still using the perceived threat of a very specific group of people as the main culprit. They got screwed from so many directions... But he wants to direct most of that anger towards the Jews specifically. Super weird, that's the part of history that I'm still dumbfounded by... My point is that shit wasn't just propaganda, they actually carried out a mass genocide. Completely unnecessary, they could have just extradited them somewhere. It's easy to look at those lunatics and think their hate speech is just some crap they are spitting out, like that kind of hating towards the opposite football team, etc... But they actually meant it. That's the messed up part. Their words must be taken seriously. Even if they didn't quite mean it fully when they began, they ended up making that nightmare a reality. Such is divisiveness created through gossip (i.e.: Fake news or simply highly emotionally charged commentary), I believe. I.e. the hate speech against left vs right. When does it stop being simply name-calling each other like young kids do, turns into systematic hate speech, into oppression, and it ends up with genocide?

lol of what part? It's like saying what is the shape of a human? Do we consider the hair strands at that milisecond of time? Do we consider the position of muscle, fat tissue, jiggling parts, etc? The earth as oceans that are in constant change, the land erodes and the continental plates are slowly moving and we can see that in the scale of millions of years, even the density of the atmosphere. It's actually a potato, if we take off the atmosphere and water 😨😂

If someone looks at my life from far away, or they listen to me telling about the things I've done. It sounds like I have severe ADHD and couldn't even spell in my own native language to save my own life. But in fact, what has happened is that I always had at different stages in life multiple conflicting interests that I tried to find ways of making them work together, and I'd go back and forth between different things. But the core of the issue, is that effectively, I somehow during the course of weeks, show the pattern of behavior that I don't have the discipline to accomplish a goal more complex than learning a new language, or constructing a written argument, keep a journal with disjointed parts that ends up organically growing over time, as opposed to following a very strict engineering-like kind of plan. Really, anything that is not very easy for me to build habits around it. With this said, I and everyone thinking about an individuals' path also must acknowledge this has taken place across months and years, and they had different energy levels, different habits, different emotional baggage (i.e. stuck in some bad long distance relationship with constant toxic communication) Or brainwashing oneself into watching a bunch of Netflix for a period of time to feel "inspired". Or spending many days of one of those months masturbating to AI images, because systematically they didn't get that urge met in a high-quality kind of way, instead of using that technology for a project that they could have monetized like they intended, instead, the hungry ghost in them has rotten their decision-making process, any great power or resource gets used to feed it in the most direct animalistic manner. Or backtracking on decisions of developing by themselves, specific skills specifically when they must focus the most, it triggers them negative feelings and their minds become hyper-aware of how long it would actually take to develop those skills and how they would meet their needs considering during that time, considering that they live with their parents... But then, always finding a reason to go backwards to any decision to find some local low-paying low-skilled odd job to try to go back to some other online venture that they were almost making work again, but then some extra complexity is hidden there, and they spend the next 2 weeks in a limbo kind of state, perhaps reading a book here and there, even journaling and taking notes, or writing on a forum, to the surprise to bystanders, their lives don't match a fraction of their possible abilities, due to lack at key specific success indicators: Getting paid instead of honing on skills on-off. Backtracking on skill development just before they become marketable, and repeating that pattern over and over again for 8 years after finishing high school not achieving financial aims, because their main aims were never financial to begin with, it just kept morphing into different things Also, due to never really building the environment that would allow them to thrive, sort of catch-22 situation. And let's not even begin what happens to the human self-steem when spending a lot of time within this kind of state. I can just see if I simply could build enough resolve towards a specific direction and exclude other options and ignore my needs for female affection and a million other "a dead by a thousand cuts" things, it would reach that critical mass to exit this loop. I could go on here trying to simplify and add more details, but I'll stop here.

Yeah. I have some more clarity now. I need to chill. That's not a healthy perspective to hold.

I'm always impressed of the tiny million ways we can screw things up... Or, better off, how little they give a shit about us. Un-fucking-believable. That was minutes into an online conversation (It didn't come from an in-person cold approach phone close), with even back and forth audio message exchange, she seemed pretty excited.

Nah. We didn't. I think I just made this post out of emotional response anyway. I'm just trying to analyze technically what I did wrong. Actually the problem wasn't that. It was something else I said before. I'm actually having very high volume of those kinds of chats, and I'm learning proper online chat game. I can sometimes feel when something abruptly changed. Like this one. It's my teasing. It's uncalibrated. My teasing is coming off as an insult. I get an impression of rapport too early, and I see it safe to say certain things. But it's not. Early on they give less benefit of the doubt, and they almost never accept apologies. I use a lot of irony. Here are some examples of things I said that blew it off: (THOSE ARE ONLINE WOMAN, FIRST INTERACTIONS. I Only mention interactions that we had a back-and-forth and those messages stopped it abruptly...) Another example... (another chat) Another... Another... There are other similar stories of how I know it put them off like that. But it's kinda hard to recognize what makes me interesting vs what makes me boring. I should be extremely careful with my teasing. I over do it... Or perhaps those were just other excuses that I perceive as something of my fault.

What kind of prompts you are using? Those common LLMs out there are too aligned with the purpose of being a "Helpful assistant" speech that it's hard for me to get it answering like an actual woman. But I believe if we had a lot of high quality conversation examples it could get better. They don't offer enough resistance and roleplay capabilities are lobotomized, they tend to be bad at narratives with conflict. They sound like some badly written roleplay. The best results I had were with some uncensored models that were weakly aligned, they were closer to an auto-complete model than a "helpful assistant" alignment, Like "Smol LM 2 1.7b Instruct". https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct Btw, use on the SYSTEM prompt how it should align, the user prompt is weaker at this. But the 360M parameter model funny enough gave me better roreplay because it's less aligned... Maybe because it's dumber it works more like an auto-complete which tends to bias wildly how it answers based on the input text, which is good to give answers outside of that "helpful assistant" lobotomized crap. But it's too dumb to be useful, I don't recommend. I'm still looking into other models that are larger. I could also set up in Kaggle (30h guarantee gpu uptime per week for free, an alternative to Google Colab) and use their Nvidia Tesla P100 (16GB) or T4 (16GB x2 SLI), but it's better if it can run on a CPU because I don't have a lot of GPU allowance.

Please, ground yourself mentally. Get your thoughts worked out. Find help. I personally don't want you to die, even though I don't know you. Bro, I hope you can see the light! And when it comes to politics... It's like the weather, people have been morons since the dawn of time. We can't personally control bad weather.

Summarizing: She says that physicists have been doing research in dumb ways that don't work because of rampant institutional corruption and group-think. Epistemologically lobotomized.

The problem I see with Peterson, is that he's so biased, that he can't accept the fact that the good facts in the bible can also be ridden with garbage alongside it (In it, outside of it, by its community, by the people that preaches to self-identify with it, etc), he felt for the ideology. Like feeling fond of the good Soviet Union times and the comrades we made along the way... And Dawkins says: "And so what? Were those friends even that good?" The point is, you could make friends regardless of a devilish corrupt organization. That closes the case for me. The tidbits of truth in the Bible could have been found through other means. The issue is that, once you have sided with it for a few things, it asks everything from you, and you are likely to go alongside it, so does people go alongside Trump, just because he frames himself as part of the in-group. Very post-truth. Dawkins doesn't like it, he doesn't like that kind of relating, of getting in this state of trance. But he's biased towards science, so whatever, they all have massive blind spots.

I think @Nilsi has a point. At least Jordan Peterson, I think that he genuinely believes in his ideas, but the issue is that along the way of learning about many of those moral truths and whatever other symbols that entices him, he has fallen into it like falling into an ideology, just like how Slavoj Žižek would say, he thinks he has escaped into his dreams, meanwhile, he's actually deep into it. The issue with ideology, is that it DOES OFFER something ENTICING in some way or another, it's not completely soulless, even North Korea has their folklore, and the people can feel genuine love of the leader, their songs, the nice stories, the beautiful dancing women. But it asks to be COMPLETELY ALIGNED with it, like having a good friend, or a wife, etc.; If there is any kind of critic, it must be a shallow soft-ball critic that doesn't undermine it. Cult psychology in some way. The problem is that Peterson he is truly on a crusade, just like Musk is in his crusade to colonize Mars, to have an electric car company... Etc. But the drawback is that sometimes, you don't have much choice of whom to side with (It's just Kamala or Trump, literally). And the matter with Musk, well, he basically already chose to be an asshole and do whatever the heck he wants to get whatever he wants, but he believes that in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter, like Steve Jobs being an asshole and putting people together to build great consumer tech. But then we have figures like Trump and Andrew Tate. Those guys are just chaotic evil, Tate literally fucking says it. With Tate and Trump, it's glaringly obvious, they will just say whatever people want to hear. And then, you have someone like Jordan Peterson, that ends up playing the politics game due to his ideals, just the way he would literally support Hitler in Nazi Germany, without the benefit of hindsight. Is building a cult worth it to fight against other cults? 😂 I guess that's how cults form. But it must be a spectrum, being a little sophist, bending the truth here and there isn't so bad, is it? Just some crack, the OX will not care... Put blindfolds on the OX before gorging on shit (Little bit of fecal fetish should not be done in front of our pets 😋🦅🐂💩) I guess that's the HOLY SACRIFICE we must make in the name of Jesus, just how he sacrificed himself. 🙏 But seriously, though, there must be some minimal compromise in how the message is delivered to increase reach, but that doesn't compromise in the ultimate message and doesn't create organizational corruption. The right thing for Peterson would have been to demonize Trump, and the whole political system that out of MILLIONS of Americans, the nation will pick that motherfucker, I'm sure there are conservatives that are a better pick. Choosing to eat shit instead of rotten bread is not a great way of voting. Unfortunately, I guess playing those power games comes with the downsides of doing things like voting for evil politicians, just because they side with your goals. People are so predictable, holy shit. Even Peterson with his big symbolic reasoning head fell for it. But there must be some other way, there must be a middle path, like how the Buddha found one after years of literally torturing himself through the period of his austerities and almost starving to death alongside extremist asceticism. There must be the modern information age equivalent of extreme asceticism and on developing the "charisma" on the other hand.

I believe to speak more articulated fluently and with substance is about practicing certain patterns of organizing thought and making connections between things in some very specific ways. You can see that with modern politicians, they are extremely consistent in the patterns they use to speak, and they don't deviate from them much. On the other hand, Leo Gura's style of speaking is more explorative in nature. Other styles of speaking, such as talking casually or with a friend, is primarily about the mental inner frame you are operating from. That already will give an instantaneous boost to be able to tap into those mental frames, from that perspective, it doesn't look very different from someone doing Game/Dating, world-class sales people selling to somebody a product, pitching a product in an online webinar, etc. But obviously, it will only express what you are already capable of expressing but is at the subconscious level waiting to be triggered. There are certain models they use, such as repeating exactly what people want to hear by studying them, kinda like creating marketing copywriting material. I believe there is that CONSCIOUS ASPECT that I just described. And there is the subconscious, you actually need exposure to that kind of speech to remember bits and pieces and doing so with THE INTENT OF IMPROVING, as opposed to simply processing like we usually do and not paying attention to the subtle details they deploy, and obviously following principles of MASTERY DEVELOPMENT and STRATEGIC THINKING, how it would usually be for any other skill. That's my take based on my reflections of learning and improving my spoken English, and currently with acquiring some French (😂 Mais, je ne sais pas pourquoi je le fais, c'est simplement un challenge pour moi maintenant) (Recently, I basically just switched the ASMR I listen in English to French, and learned the basics consciously, and unconsciously I just began picking up the language) But what took me from beginner level to intermediary, and finally, what will take me to advanced... They aren't quite the same techniques, although there is an overlap and stacking of previous techniques with newer ones. The law of diminishing returns is a bitch, there is only so much that subconscious language acquisition can do.Some techniques that might be useful: Recording with Shadowing (Repeating alongside a speaker of your choice) Recording with a script (And making it sound natural) Recording off-script Pay attention to: Prosody Use a synonym dictionary (Don't ever blindly use words you don't know the meaning, but use it to remember them) Use ANKI (To memorize new words, expressions, or whatever other tidbits you want) STORY TELLING TACTICS: Google "pip decks storyteller tactics"
