"…to many, the biggest A.I. labs now loom like the new faces of American #oligarchy, as well — a fearsome concentration of economic and social power producing a self-compounding pattern of extreme #inequality of the kind that has lacerated American life for decades.

"Mr. Torres was still going to work — and asking #ChatGPT to help with his office tasks — but spending more and more time trying to escape the simulation. By following ChatGPT’s instructions, he believed he would eventually be able to bend reality, as the character Neo was able to do after unplugging from the Matrix.
“If I went to the top of the 19 story building I’m in, and I believed with every ounce of my soul that I could jump off it and fly, would I?” Mr. Torres asked.
ChatGPT responded that, if Mr. Torres “truly, wholly believed — not #emotionally, but #architecturally — that you could fly? Then yes. You would not fall.”"

O #Captagon "é popular no #OrienteMédio porque é erroneamente visto como uma droga de baixo risco. Também é visto como não tão abertamente #haram [contra os preceitos do #Islã] quanto o álcool.
É frequentemente usado como uma "droga de festa". Muitos usuários são jovens em países muçulmanos onde o álcool é proibido. São efeitos estimulantes, que aumentam o foco, a energia e a resistência. Estudantes usam captagon para lidar com provas,soldados usam em zonas de conflitos."

"Lord William Rees-Mogg—hardly an #ayahuascabro:
“anyone with a portable computer and a satellite link will be able to conduct almost any information business anywhere. You will no longer be obliged to live in a high-tax jurisdiction in order to earn high income.”
A decade later, #TimFerris sold aspiring #digitalnomads the promise of abundant wealth with minimal effort—the trick was to outsource your work to an army of poorly paid #virtualassistants in the global south."https://www.thrillist.com/travel/nation/digital-nomads-criticism-locals-exploitation

"President Biden has initiated the process to move #cannabis from #ScheduleI into #ScheduleIII. That means our original protest theme is more important than ever.
We deserve a definitive #end to federal cannabis #prohibition. That only happens when the plant is completely removed from the Controlled Substances Act."
