  • As wikipedia puts it: "The assassination failed to achieve its immediate objective of restoring the Republic's institutions. Instead, it precipitated Caesar's posthumous deification, triggered the Liberators' civil war (43–42 BC) between his supporters and the conspirators, and contributed to the collapse of the Republic. These events ultimately culminated in the rise of the Roman Empire under Augustus, marking the beginning of the Principate era."

    If that day says anything about the end of tyrants, it's that murdering one can sometimes be futile and counterproductive.

  • Civilization is on the decline, well past its peak, and probably will be for another hundred years at least. At a personal level I'd advise you not to worry about it too much. The things you can do to make the world a better place are the same things they've always been.

  • I used to believe that owning a car was necessary.

  • "Little to no government intervention" is the one thing all the self-described libertarians I've met seem to agree on.

    "No oppressive power structures" is the thing that the anarchists agree on.

  • Do people still spend a lot of time complaining about all the dumb things Ubuntu did? I haven't heard much about it for a few years, really.

  • I will perfect the science of divination with frog entrails.

  • I'm surprised that I haven't yet seen anyone influential claiming that AI is the Antichrist.

  • Somebody should go ahead and make an "is-user-old" command that just reads from /etc/age.txt and returns YES, NO, or IDK.

  • What would I do? Probably flee the settlements and take my chances as a swamp shaman.
