ǝʌɐpIf you are a dev and feeling down because AI AI AI, there is a very good Philip K. Dick short story titled Pay for the Printer that you might enjoy. I don't think it is public domain yet, but you can probably find a copy lying around.
Not linking the wikipedia because it kind of spoils it.
Don Curren 🇨🇦🇺🇦“The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. No, the true measure of a man is this: how quickly can he respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give.” - #PhilipKDick #PKD
steev hisei feel like lately in my daily mundane life legit communication is just lost in a sea of #noise/spam. Is it that i'm getting old and no longer have the energy or will to sort through the #datasmog that's always been there or has it really gotten so much worse, in the last, i dunno, 5 years or so? I feel like I can't get simple things accomplished because it's so hard to find the email threads that represent those digital errands.Like simple customer support stuff about orders or bills or events or whatnot, just drowned in a sea of attempts to #scam and trick me. trick us all.
What science fiction author or filmmaker predicted this kind of #end to our #civilization? That we'd just be swamped in our own digital trash and eventually unable to cope. Seems like a #PKD story but I cant recall which or whether he really wrote something like that... I keep thinking of the part in #Ubik where the protagonist is trapped in his apartment because he can't afford to pay the autonomous pay-per-use door out. This is what's happening but even worse, because the problem is not even connected to any physical situation. Machines and systems just idiotically bewildering us all to death.
AnthkFor #pkd Philip K Dick lovers, there's a text adventure, a ZMachine game (just get Frotz under GNU/BSD or Lectrote under Mac/Android/Win to play it) related to PKD's lore, computers (9front), music and a surreal reality: https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=blvdzahqq9xdb8f2 get the z8 file and play it under Frotz/LectRote or your favourite interpreter.

Em 2014, participei de um Clube de Leitura no FB e foi uma experiência bem legal. À época, lemos: Wilde, Gaiman, King entre outros.
