  • Here’s the best part:

    They spent trillions building a product worth billions. They don’t even get a moat of it either. All their competitors are perpetually 6 months behind, so they have to keep spending billions more just to keep their heads above water.

    Their only hope is to trick the government into regulatory capture so they can finally get their moat. They aren’t even profiting from inference though, so they’re going to continue burning runway.









  • Look…

    if you had

    mom’s spaghetti…

    would you capture it, or just let it slip?

    yo! His palms spaghetti, knees weak, arms spaghetti!

    there’s vomit on his sweater, spaghetti, mom’s spaghetti

    he’s nervous, but on the surface, he looks calm spaghetti, to drop bombs

    but he keeps on spaghetti what he wrote down

    The whole crowd goes spaghetti!

    He opens his mouth but spaghetti won’t come out

    he’s chokin’ how, everybody’s jokin’ now!

    spaghetti’s run out…

    time’s up, over! Blaugh!

    snap back to spaghetti - oh there goes spaghetti, oh - there goes spaghetti

    blaugh!

    he’s so mad, but won’t give up spaghetti

    nope, he won’t have it

    he knows he keeps on forgetting

    that mom’s spaghetti’s dope

    he knows that, but he’s broke, he’s so stagnant

    he knows when he goes back to his mom’s spaghetti

    that’s when it’s back to the lab again, yo

    this whole spaghetti

    better go capture spaghetti

    and hope it don’t pass him

    You better lose yourself in ya mom’s spaghetti! It’s ready!

    you better never let it go!

    you only get one spaghetti, do not miss your chance to blow

    cause spaghetti comes once in a lifetime…

    YO!!!





  • Allegory is one kind of evidence, arguably one of the most obvious sorts of evidence. It’s not the only kind though. I have never played the Hollow Knight games so I didn’t know those facts you just mentioned. Still, from what I’ve seen of the games in screenshots, I get a vibe.

    Perhaps part of it to me is that the protagonist is non human, barely even resembling anything humanoid? There’s also a gloominess, a loneliness to it.

    Not saying these vibes are in any way a perfect diagnostic. Heck, I wouldn’t have predicted the announcement beforehand. But in hindsight it feels right.
