All I ever see on r/liminalspaces anymore

[magnetaress]

Is dead malls!

So u thonk malls never rly existed and r just parallel universes?

Let's keep it apolitical gois!

[Swish]

There's some good decaying mall content on youtube if its your thing. 50% vacant stores etc.

[Skyking]

all the malls should have been torn down a decade ago and starter homes built on the land.

Best I can do is lowrise mixed use apartments with retail space on the ground floor and zero parking.

I originally bought vanilla EQ from the Software Etc. in my local mall.... it smelled like Cinnabon and videogames in there, it was amazing. RIP malls.

[Swish]

There is something amazing about cinnabon, I resist 99% of the time but that smell has such a nostalgic aura to it.

Got our first computer at Fry's. Fried it with heat issues after trying to upgrade the processor to play MechWarrior 3.

What's thermal paste precious?

I think we added a video card too. Had to reposition a jumper.

not mine, stolen from a liminalspaces page on fb, been to it a bunch though

>'m more freaked out by the store than the pumps.
yeah i used to nightdrive a ton and was into car photography Love's is the super sketch gas station for truckers where you can see lot lizards and truck drivers that can barely walk from eating all that garbage constantly

and this shit
Why are some street lights purple in Texas?
Most LED street lamps rely on a phosphor coating that converts the blue light emitted by the diodes into the more common white light seen on streets
fun conspiracy theory about those, i always heard it's to prevent junkies from shooting up cause they can't see a vein

gas station photography is fun though lol

everyday i lean more towards this shit being another dot com bust though idk

not that it won't happen but a "ai winter" cycle and a bunch of these start ups going bankrupt not being able to monetize this shit first before we get to the promised land

An "AI Winter" refers to a period of reduced interest and funding in artificial intelligence research, often following a period of overhype and disappointment. These periods are characterized by decreased investment, skepticism from the scientific community, and a slow-down in AI development

[Duik]

The fact that the only thing that could kickstart three mile island is the needs of an A.I data center over real humans is telling.

Dont get me wrong, i like atomic power. Thorium and liquid salt reactors are the way to go, but money talks apparently and A.I is already a needy child.

[Ekco]

but money talks apparently and A.I is already a needy child.

the market literally needs a story going on to prevent a deep recession, Dot-com Boom then Cloud computing then IoT then EVs now it's AI and some are saying we're already pivoting to quantum computing

that's the last 30 years right there and we skipped over a bust in 08'

[Duik]

Still does not mean A.I isn't a needy crybaby that the greedy will feed until it can pay its own bills.
No matter what.

[Ekco]

so was fiber optic cable

AT&T and the tax payer is still fucked from the quick rollout at the time, actual demand finally caught up though

AT&T still has so much debt from it that their toast next recession, Everquest servers benefited from it at the time, without it the servers wouldn't of been able to handle the traffic

[Duik]

Fibre optic cable does not need to harvest data from real people to survive.

[Ekco]

tomato tomahto, people freely gave up their data for numerous different reasons and that data was already collected and being abused by algorithms written by humans to sell shit which wasn't helping anyone but giant corporations

AI is just a search engine that lets anyone benefit from that resource that was already given away. you can easily make a strong man argument for AI against what was going on prior with just the social media apps and e-commerce sites using the data

the war was lost a long time ago

There will be a bust and a 2.0 and a bubble and a next generation.

it might break the whole concept of a free and open traded market, algorithms that scrape headlines and do trades based off the info already dominate and do it faster than any human possible and that was before this AI shit, if AI can crunch all the data and actually "think" and make the best short and long term trades and investments then it's pointless for humans to be involved at all, no more activate trading just passive and the only thing a person has to worry about is what % to money to allocate like a saving account

Sorry for not posting much of the cool stuff. It's a pain to repost via phone.

[Ekco]

not sure honestly, getting them from R E T R O P U N K S and liminal photography public groups on boomerbook

[magnetaress]

It looks a lil unreal. Still cool nonetheless. Guess if it can be imagined in mind and created somehow.. it's real enough!

Love of the liminal and the simulation, life in everquest has lead to cool stuff like awareness of this playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6M5LtXcNKIpj0IWp9lenecJiwIXPqVFa&si=3v02sEbEseU_scVI

Deep into virtual spaces.

It's just generally so calming and peaceful while empty and somehow simultaneously full. It gives mind a task. And a focus for awareness.

This reminded me of something dumb I did as a kid. When I was around 10 years old (early 1995ish) I saved up my allowance to buy Heretic and then unfortunately found out that my sega cd couldn't play PC games when I popped the disc in and nothing happened lmao.

[Duik]

I bought sega rally 2 and my lame arsed computer couldnt even run the fucker.

[Duik]

We have an ebgames in a mall in the big smoke city 50 odd kays away from my place.

Pokemon tshirts, boardgames, spiderman beside lights, dice, ps/xbox/nintendo game disks and limited controllers/peripherals. All jumbled into a ye olde shoppe with a tardis sized back storeroom.

Phuck Yeah

The only way I could get EverQuest when I was a kid was by going to the Bristol Mall. They didn't sell PC games at Wal-mart etc. Can't even remember the name of the game store at the mall, but I'm pretty sure it was a franchise around the country because I saw the same stores everywhere.
