THE END OF HEROES

.............................................................. THE END OF HEROES






Long past are the times when the human spirit has overcome anything mechanically evil in this outer multidimensional world we exist in.



The dawn of man has past. Developing virtual Von Neumann machines out perform every function of man.



Machines think more logically, robots physically out perform us.

Digitally created are much more beautiful & dynamic works of art than man could ever recreate.

Computers communicate more efficiently and understand more clearly.

Ethereum and swarm technology allows business and government to operate more transparently and in a much more precise democratic way.

All this and more, done at the speed of light.



Long gone is the hero known as man.


Man has been at once corrected , neutralized, and diminished.

Mankind is over. Neutralized and finished.

Far from ever to be a hero again, in any way.

Man is now an asterisk; Nothing more than a flawed inscription that needs to be, and should be, avoided.




Neutralized Man looks into our own relentless setting sun. Silent.

Unable to achieve a heaven that we alone created.

Unable to escape the inevitable hell that devilishly passed through us.

Long past are the times when the human spirit has overcome anything mechanically evil in this outer multidimensional world we exist in. ...

What on earth is 'mechanically evil'? Let alone 'outer multidimensional'?

The dawn of man has past. Developing virtual Von Neumann machines out perform every function of man.

So what? As they will be performing the functions we find onerous to do hence the possible glorious daytime ahead.

Machines think more logically, robots physically out perform us.

Again, so what? Although you'll need to be defining 'think' in this instance?

Digitally created are much more beautiful & dynamic works of art than man could ever recreate.

Digitally created what?

Computers communicate more efficiently and understand more clearly.

Understand what?

Ethereum and swarm technology allows business and government to operate more transparently and in a much more precise democratic way.

lmao! Business and government being who?

All this and more, done at the speed of light.

And we think with one of largest massively parallel neural processing units on the planet.

Long gone is the hero known as man.

When was 'he' ever? But not long gone bill, maybe in the future but still a long way to go before machines can be intuitive about reality.

Man has been at once corrected , neutralized, and diminished.

From what?

Mankind is over. Neutralized and finished.

Far from it, barring war, stupidity and other catastrophes we've not even started. you're out of date with your 'digital' Bill as the future is Biology as it is now has an engineering wing(apologies to the Chemists).

Far from ever to be a hero again, in any way.

Bollocks, there is an amazing future unfolding before us.

Man is now an asterisk; Nothing more than a flawed inscription that needs to be, and should be, avoided.

By whom?

Neutralized Man looks into our own relentless setting sun. Silent.

How tragic! You are such a melodramatic queen.

Unable to achieve a heaven that we alone created.

Which 'heaven' would this be?

Unable to escape the inevitable hell that devilishly passed through us. [/size].

What 'hell' is this?

We live in a multidimensional continuum.

If opposite opinions did not exist, and all shades of grey in-between, this would be a vacuum.



FYI: You don't exist within a vacuum.

* You wasted your response by attempting to name obscure anomalies instead of bringing forward a credible argument.


Please work harder to form an informed response if you wish to participate within one of my threads. Thank you.

No, it would be a consensus.

FYI: You don't exist within a vacuum.

Because vacuums don't exist.

* You wasted your response by attempting to name obscure anomalies instead of bringing forward a credible argument.

There was nothing to make a credible argument against so I just pointed out what I think were the errors in your thought(if it was your thought of course as more than likely it's a bunch of cut-pastes of others thoughts).

Please work harder to form an informed response if you wish to participate within one of my threads. Thank you.[/size].

Nah! My response was just about right and thank you for once again showing you have one of the features of the internut gnu, i.e. an inability to answer sentences ending with question marks.

Multidimensional - means many dimensions.

Continuum - means anything that goes through a gradual transition from one condition, to a different condition, without any abrupt changes.


We exit in a many dimensional, continuously changing universe that we will never intellectually understand.

Pretty basic stuff...



Hope that helps.

[Arising_uk]

Thank you for the replies.

. Multidimensional - means many dimensions.

I know, I just want you to say what these 'dimensions' are as I'm not sure what you are referring to?

Continuum - means anything that goes through a gradual transition from one condition, to a different condition, without any abrupt changes.

Give me an example?

We exit in a many dimensional, continuously changing universe that we will never intellectually understand.

And yet you appear to be doing just that with the idea of a 'Multidimensional Continuum' or are you saying they are meaningless terms? Can you name these dimensions we exist in or just some of them please?

Pretty basic stuff...

Make it more basic if you could please. Examples for example.

Hope that helps. [/size].

Unfortunately no.

No Dimensions = a point; No length, no width, no height.

1st Dimension = a line; length, no width, no height.

2nd Dimension = a plane; length, height, no width.

3ed Dimension = a cube; length, width, height.

4th Dimension = Time.

* If there is a 4th Dimension it must exist within a fifth dimension.

** A 5th Dimension must exist with the framework of a sixth dimension.

Again, if a 6th Dimension exists it must exist within some sort of higher 7th dimension.

This is as far as our present logic would allow us to speculate.

It is certainly conceivable that there are even more dimensions that we exist within. Does us no good to discuss any higher dimensions that we cannot directly experience.


For now, in this thread, it is well enough that we understand that we exist in a multidimensional continuum.


We can see and experience three dimensional objects in a forth dimensional context.



Thank you for asking pertinent questions that help me to express philosophical concepts and help move this thread forward.

This is a mathematical abstract that does not exist in reality. A point has both length, width and height in reality. For example, .

3ed Dimension = a cube; length, width, height.

You missed out volume?

4th Dimension = Time.

We have no idea if 'time' is a spatial dimension.

* If there is a 4th Dimension it must exist within a fifth dimension.

** A 5th Dimension must exist with the framework of a sixth dimension.

Again, if a 6th Dimension exists it must exist within some sort of higher 7th dimension.

These are all mathematical abstracts, show me any of them?

Many things are logically and mathematical conceivable but this does not make them reality.

For now, in this thread, it is well enough that we understand that we exist in a multidimensional continuum.

Only if you wish to make stuff up about reality.

We can see and experience three dimensional objects in a forth dimensional context.

An example?

My pleasure, I hope my latest questions allow you to clarify what you actually mean? As so far it's as clear as mud.

Thought it was evident that a point is a theoretical concept. Cannot be any other way.



Far as the rest of your response I believe you are reaching.

Your hang-ups, whatever they are, skew your ability to see and even to carry-on a civilized, philosophical conversation.


Perhaps you have been here too long?


I don't see you getting any value from any of your responses & postings anywhere within this forum.


In short, you add nothing.


Told you months ago, for your own good, begin posting topic threads.

Since then you started exactly ONE thread - and it was flat-out assine right from the word go.


Perhaps it's time to take some time off.


Come back with a different perspective.

Right now you seem like you are trapped in some fucked-up haze.



Perhaps something is fucked-up in your real world that you need to attend to?



Whatever. Good luck.


Don't try to add any more to my threads till you have an attitude adjustment.


No malice, just, - you're boring.

Yes it can, it can be an indivisible object.

Far as the rest of your response I believe you are reaching.

Yup, reaching for some kind of clarification of the gnu's thoughts.

Your hang-ups, whatever they are, skew your ability to see and even to carry-on a civilized, philosophical conversation.

Is the rest of your reply an example of such?

Perhaps you have been here too long?

Long enough to know a gnu when I hear one.

I don't see you getting any value from any of your responses & postings anywhere within this forum.

What would you call 'value' in this instance?

In short, you add nothing.

Better than promoting gnushit.

Told you months ago, for your own good, begin posting topic threads.

Since then you started exactly ONE thread - and it was flat-out assine right from the word go.

Where did I start a new post?

The rest is just the gnu when faced with having to answer questions about their gnushit.

Got to be honest with you...looking from the outside in, your fixation with the word gnu is odd. I feel that inside you gnu has perhaps some sort of negative connotation. The word doesn't exist in today's modern lexicon except for the fact that GNU is a positive acronym for a free software server. In practice, most usable GNU-based operating systems are Linux distributions. They contain the Linux kernel, GNU components and software from many other free software projects.


GNU is an extremely positive name of an operating system.


So, I am flattered.


I feel like you are reaching & your hate and personal pain are destroying any positive input you could add to my posts.


Please reflect before you respond to this post. I want you to do better - MUCH BETTER than this crap you most recently threw-up upon the forum.





Grow-up PLEASE. I know you could do better. You were fine years ago...



Take a break. Chill.

Come back with a better attitude & with something to say.



Good luck.

It stands for GNU's Not Unix. So by definition, it's a negative name.

Not calling you lazy. Not calling you stupid.

You are uninformed - GNU



...I would ask that you at least attempt to inform yourself before you attempt to add to one of my threads.


Thank you & good luck upon your future investigations into lexicon and philosophical thought.

Thank you & good luck upon your future investigations into lexicon and philosophical thought.

Your own link includes these exact words: "GNU is a recursive acronym for "GNU's Not Unix!"
Why were you too lazy and stupid to read it?
It's perfectly obvious that the name which identifies the object by reference to that which it is not is negative, and it was chosen for fun.

Why did you bother grandstanding like that when I was playfully mocking you in such a trivial fashion?
You really need to grow a thicker skin and a less pompous attitude.
