You hold these truths to be self-evident, that all Kerbals (except the orange-suits) are created equal, that they are doomed by their Creator to certain inescapable fates, that among these are Fire, Gravity and that thing where the wheels go haywire.

raises the question: what are they trying to distract us from?
<Althego>
12 alien spacecraft
<Althego>
i could understand one
<Althego>
but 12 is ridiculous
<Althego>
it has interstellar travel and somehow crashes on earth?
<SporkWitch>
aliens existing? Plausible, even probable given the size of the universe, though with a sample size of 1, we can't rule out our being unique and alone. Aliens GETTING HERE, alive? Implausible, unless they figured out alcubierre drives.
<SporkWitch>
Given the origins of alien stories in the early 20th century, I've always been of the opinion that the government actively promoted the stories and did intentionally bad jobs "hiding the evidence," because it's excellent counter-intelligence for people actually seeing classified experimental vehicles.
<Mat2ch>
I just find it funny, because all of this reminds me of the "I want to believe" poster from Fox Mulders office. :D
<Althego>
there might be several alien civilization in the galaxy right now. but even then, given the distances they wouldnt know of each other
<SporkWitch>
Same holds now. More likely these are drones of various types. The call for more openness being about crowdsourcing information gathering on non-American ones invading our airspace
<Mat2ch>
SporkWitch: We have smartphones for 15 years now. If there are ships crashing here on a regular basis... we would have a whole tiktok army storming it.
<Althego>
everybody has a camera on them at all times, so impossible to hide things. the only things you can do is to put similar but fake information around it as noise, and then people just ignore it
<SporkWitch>
again, why i think these stories are being pushed right now: distraction from something that's actually important
<Althego>
sr-72 is in development
<Althego>
and that is only a tihng we know of. there might be some others we dont know of
<Althego>
sr-71 was a way bigger secret
<SporkWitch>
the only thing i'm aware of in the timing is ukraine blowing up that dam, but that doesn't make sense, since it still got attention and the usual suspects are blaming russia; the NPCs will believe it, rational people won't, no benefit to distracting form it since it won't matter. So what are we missing that they're trying to distract us from?
<SporkWitch>
sr-72 doesn't explain the details that we usually hear and videos we do see. Small drones make more sense.
<Mat2ch>
Not sure about the fakes. Haven't seen many lately. And the videos from todays smartphone are better than 90s film cameras
<Mat2ch>
SporkWitch: There are several good reasons why they didn't do it. But this topic is politics.
<SporkWitch>
well thanks to how good the AI stuff already is, convincing to the point of impossible-to-determine deepfakes are becoming outright common
<Mat2ch>
They are getting good, yes, but not perfect.
<Althego>
some ai can find the fakes
<Althego>
but that is now an arms race of ai creating and detecting fakes
<SporkWitch>
yup; end of the day we've effectively defeated photo, video, and audio as evidence, can't trust anything not seen in person now.
<SporkWitch>
Already numerous examples of outright fabricated photo and video evidence being admitted in criminal court cases.
<Mat2ch>
Nothing has changed for a hundred years then. ;)
<Althego>
too bad you cant trust anything a person saw or says
<Althego>
never could
<SporkWitch>
Althego: exactly, it renders the truth unknowable, or at least unsharable.
<Althego>
is this already cyberpunk?
<SporkWitch>
basically
<SporkWitch>
also, neuralink approved for human trials
<Eddi|zuHause>
this alien story always reminds me of this strategy: when the conspiracy people are getting too close to something real, then they sens some people to infiltrate the scene and discredit it by releasing even more nutty conspiracy theories
<Eddi|zuHause>
*send
<SporkWitch>
Eddi|zuHause: precisely what i was saying about the start of the UFO conspiracies a century ago
<SporkWitch>
hence my repeated question: what, right now, is this a distraction from?
<Eddi|zuHause>
one would assume that the general public is already distracted enough by this war and stuff
<Althego>
most people dont care about the war
<SporkWitch>
one would think, and so i return to the question: what is trying to be hidden now?
<Althego>
at least not in the usa
<Mat2ch>
Well, I could make a list of what should remain hidden, but that would be politics. :D
<Althego>
multiple parasitic arachnids are not good for you :)
<SporkWitch>
don't you disparrage spiderbro like that! :P
<Althego>
(poly ticks)
<SporkWitch>
huh, did not realize ticks were classified as arachnids, had to check it lol
