Depending on your denomination (But most I'm pretty sure) He went down to hell and fucked it up for three days while going out of His way to let Satan know He had defeated death itself. It's even called the Harrowing of Hell, which is metal.
He also preached the Gospel and freed most of the damned.

here's a reading of it in case anyone doesn't want to find the text.
 
Tangential, but came across this article about what may be the world's most online man. Wikipedia turboeditor, RationalWiki big shot, and scorned Yuddite. Working through it still, but found this amazing picture of a life.
The two of them concluded that Gerard would not sign up for cryonics unless it was socially normal, and Gerard concluded that the rationalist goal should be to make cryonics normal. Gerard emphasized alongside this that he is extremely conservative about changing his mind or embracing new ideas.
'I would only freeze myself on Death's door if I people wouldn't think I was weird.' You're on the verge of darkness, to be lost forever, and you're worried about being made fun of? By who? Demons? The future people who saved you?

What an absolute faggot pussy. Who cares?

I hope Roko's Basilisk is actually real and puts this weirdo through the worst punishments ever, not even for the Roko's Basilisk reason, but just because absolute faggots like this deserve the ultimate punishment for making the world lame by their very existence.

Roko's Basilisk may torture me slightly less simply for clowning on this guy, so I've got that going for me.

Where do you think you are? The cryo pods are wired up to automatically liquidate when Kiwi Farms exposes embarrassing content about them.

Was his work that anal about life insurance policies? Furries generally manage to keep their jobs in tech, even back in the day (there were furry characters on old job adverts even). Freezing yourself is weird, a waste of money, and probably will end up with your defrosted corpse rotting in a dumpster, but if you want to advocate for something like that you'd better have gone through the paperwork yourself.

If you have a thread here they send you to mind hell. If you get featured you get killed and shunted to real hell. Jersh's Basilisk.

Edit: In this scenario cryogenic operate like a 40k dreadnought. Kept the barest minimum of 'alive' but your mind is connected to the Internet
 
Do you think AGI is possible or it's a pipe dream?
It will be difficult to make a totally "awake" AI that acts as an agent aware of its existence and acting upon its needs and wants, like what most people expect AGI to be, but it will be possible to create a giant AI model that can do pretty much anything possible on a computer just with instructions. Less like skynet and more like one of the ship computers from Star Trek. To make something like Skynet we'd need a totally different way of making AI, since no amount of language and task understanding can make something truly aware, and to be honest, it would all be wasted effort since at the end you'd just get a less reliable AGI lol

I totally agree with you. I've heard it said AGI will work like performance-enhancing drugs do for athletes... only for the technological field. So maybe, just maybe we might get Full Dive VR and I'm all in on that. Screw this life, man.

What if in his efforts to keep the Farms going our overlord Josh is the one that creates Roko's Basilisk? So then all of us here helped contribute, right?

This is the type of guy that gets bullied out of thousands of dollars by lil' Yud in the AI-in-a-box BDSM roleplay chat challenge.

I still can't decide if rationalists or rationalist a-logs are more pathetic. I'm leaning towards the a-logs because holy shit :story:
 
Slavish devotion to empiricism and determinism. Can't see God with a telescope and all.

Edit: As if on cue.

If God is real why does He punish the wicked? Not very effective aulturist of Him.

Double edit: Just now picked up on 'The versions of Christianity popular in the United States that believe in hell'. What the hell is this bitch talking about?
Was Rereading the thread read this and decided to throw in my 2 cents:
Once again a Calvinist doesn't understand salvation and the meaning of hell.
