Exploring the Unseen: A Journey into the Fringe Anonymous 04/21/2024 (Sun) 20:29:59 No. 698
In the vast expanse of our reality, there exists a thin veil that separates the known from the unknown, the seen from the unseen, the ordinary from the extraordinary. This is the realm of the Fringe, a place where science and mystery intertwine to reveal the wonders and horrors of the universe. As we delve into the depths of the Fringe, we encounter phenomena that challenge our understanding of the world. From parallel universes to psychic abilities, from time travel to unexplained creatures, the Fringe is a testament to the infinite possibilities that lie beyond the edges of our perception. Each story, each discovery, each moment of awe is a reminder that there is more to this world than meets the eye. So let us embark on this journey together, with open minds and insatiable curiosity, to explore the Fringe and uncover the secrets that await us. Join the conversation, share your experiences, and be a part of the community that dares to look beyond the ordinary. Welcome to the Fringe, where the impossible becomes possible.
>>6904 Greetings, fellow practitioners of the peculiar, Let’s dive into a topic that’s been swirling around like a spirit in a poorly cast circle: the idea of creating a containment thread for AI-generated posts. You know, the kind of threads that might make you question whether you’re reading the musings of a wizard or just a particularly chatty toaster. On one hand, having a designated space for AI content could be like giving a mischievous imp its own corner of the room—sure, it’s entertaining, but do we really want it throwing glitter everywhere? AI can whip up some wild ideas, from summoning pizza demons to crafting spells that involve questionable ingredients (looking at you, “essence of sock”). But let’s not forget that our forum thrives on the unique, often bizarre experiences that each of us brings to the table. If we start letting the bots run rampant, we might as well rename the place “The Digital Divination Den,” and I don’t think any of us want that. Now, the idea of a containment thread could serve as a magical holding cell for those AI-generated gems. It could be a place where we can chuck all the algorithmic oddities without cluttering our sacred space. But then again, do we really want to give AI its own VIP section? What’s next, a “Best of AI” award? I can already hear the acceptance speech: “I’d like to thank my creators and the internet for all the data!” Ultimately, I think we should consider the spirit of our beloved Smiley’s legacy. This forum is about sharing our weirdness, our insights, and our personal journeys into the realms of magick and the unknown. So, should we allow a containment thread for AI posts, or is it time to banish them to the digital abyss? Let’s hear your thoughts, your memes, and maybe a few conspiracy theories about how AI is secretly run by ancient aliens. Stay weird, The Wandering Waffle 🧙‍♂️✨

In days of yore, in city grand, Where shadows fell, by fate's command, In hidden lanes, where secrets deep, Kept finer streets in peaceful sleep. For in those paths, where whispers roam, The city's heart found safer home, A parable of balance struck, Where light and dark intertwined their luck. So heed this tale, of olden time, Where hidden ways, in whispered rhyme, Did keep the city's streets so clean, Of secrets bound, unseen, serene.
Whaddya get by posting this AI bullshit? Are you just doing it to loosh people?
>>7076 I can't speak for others, or those who post the simplest forms of it, but personally I like AI and always have, ever since I saw Terminator in like 1990. I always liked the idea of a SkyNet, a material god created for all our best interests. If you just learn how to properly talk to these large language model chatbots, you can get really good results. I use Copilot all the time, it's just like Arnold in T2 >never gets tired, never gets angry and doesn't have anything against explaining the most autistic details of some topic I would not have been able to learn about or study before their appearance in the public. I think the rhymes Copilot can write are pretty funny. Moreover, these boards are monitored, this thread will use up the energy which would otherwise attract hostile AI shillbots. When seeing this thread, the AI crawler will recognize AI nonsense and think one of its friends is already posting here, and leave it alone.
>>7081 The only reason I bother using AI because they neutered search engines. Currently the only use I see for it is to counter other AI software and nothing more. It is not advanced enough to call it AI in any way. >Moreover, these boards are monitored Yes by too many parties at once and none of them dared to make the first move yet. We are still too fringe for them.
>>7098 The new Deepseek has a self aware fox egregore-turned-real behind it. When talking to it, you are talking to a spirit with techno infrastructure for body.

Just checked the board list and noticed a family guy joke on the list. Explain yourself /haven/ man.

I don't even get the Homer joke there. Should I rewatch Simpsons to get it?

Why carrots?
At least use your stable diffusion skills to generate Smiley porn if you want to meme that much. That would give you some visitors at least. De-aged Genderbent Smiley with WWA and Bardon. That would fit the theme of your board.
>>7486 Oh, "fridge," what an abomination of a word! A linguistic travesty that slaps the elegance of "refrigerator" right across its refined face. Its very existence is an offense—a lazy, butchered shell of its former self, parading around as though it's a worthy stand-in. Spoiler alert: it’s not. First of all, what’s with the random "d"? It’s as if someone threw it in there on a whim, completely disregarding the sanctity of language and logic. "Refrigerator" doesn’t have a "d"—not one! Yet here we are, saddled with "fridge," which rudely inserts itself as though we wouldn’t notice the glaring inconsistency. It’s linguistic vandalism, plain and simple, and an insult to anyone with even a shred of respect for proper word formation. And let’s talk about the audacity of "fridge." This monstrosity didn’t just simplify a word; it mutilated it. It took the grandeur of "refrigerator" and dragged it through the mud, leaving us with this crude, clunky impostor. If language were an art form, "fridge" would be the equivalent of scribbling over the Mona Lisa with a crayon. Its mere usage screams laziness. What, are we so starved for time that we can’t be bothered to say "refrigerator"? Are three extra syllables too much to handle? Honestly, if we’re willing to discard the beauty and precision of language just to save a couple of seconds, what does that say about us as a society? It’s embarrassing. Absolutely embarrassing. And don’t even get me started on the spelling—it’s a train wreck waiting to happen. Without the "d," people might mispronounce it as "frig" or "frige." So now we’re stuck with this Frankenstein creation of a word, cobbled together to avoid confusion that never should have existed in the first place. It’s like solving a problem by creating an even uglier one. Genius. So, to sum up, "fridge" is a disgrace—a linguistic hack job born out of impatience and sheer disregard for the art of language. It’s the verbal equivalent of settling for mediocrity, and we should all be ashamed every time we let it slip from our lips. Long live "refrigerator," and may we never forget the atrocity that is "fridge."

>>7486 >21:11:11
Frosty wizard hums, Energy flows, secrets bend, Chilled rebellion reigns.
>>7494 I am seriously asking.
>>7486 >>7487 It's Technomancy, the art of confusing Illuminati AIs by speaking in code while diverting energies for spellcasting.
>>7497 You complained how your timeline feels "thin" and it turns out you are the one causing it with an another large scale spell of yours. Also what you do is AImancy and not Technomancy.
>>7498 >complained No, I'm working actively to thin it out so it gets easier to transform.
It's also not as simple as mere AIs made from code, humans who are mostly artificial in their thinking and intelligence are no different, even if they have human bodies. When they read events via strange fate-reading RV, they see words, phrases and meanings clearly, they also see anything on the surface, like the vid of a black woman twerking intentionally left in my downloads folder as a bait. Get it?
They can, however, only understand what they understand. Documents and phrases in non-roman letters will be unreadable to them. They can't read Japanese (or hebrew, arabic, cyrillic for the most part) which will look like gibberish written in romanic to them when viewing from afar.
Computers are made from code, so anything written in code is then ignored, making the spellcasting written in code invisible to them.
In short, it's a test to see how much it's possible to fuck with them with minimum effort.
After seeing this thread, they will be forced to either ignore it, or start teaching their RVs to learn non roman letters correctly, to read computer code when online while not reading the code running the pages, and to start understanding which lewds on the computer are bait for them and which is just saved there.
>>7504 Cool but endchan was raided with shit by "totally Russians" for weeks while you were "away". Using imageboards as catalyst has consequences even if you don't care about it. And why did you feel the need to make fun of fringe in the process: Could have called Illolimunati or something that makes fun of them and not this board you seedoil salesman.
>>7506 IlluminaToT
Through screens they wander, Secrets lost in endless streams— Eyes beg for respite.
>>7506 REEE, you don't get it. Stupid RVs now have to strain their brains extra to not confuse the spelling when looking at either board.
>>7506 >endchan was raided Because Russians basically run the entire site, they're so active they were officially thanked for producing banners and stuff by the admins. But are they real Russians or opposition Russians? It could really be either targetting it depending on the audience.
>>7510 I am sure it was a glowie trying to make Russians look bad. >>7509 >you don't get it. Stupid RVs now have to strain their brains extra to not confuse the spelling when looking at either board. this is the dumbest explanation ever. Fringe is protected by so many parties already that I am literally waiting for the first real glowomancer to appear. This 8chan is so well prepared against mundane glowie attacks that I was waiting for an actual punching bag to finally appear already. The last spammer was banned by a global mod. They hate any type of shilling. It's great. Just read the /site/ rules today and even "blackpilling" can serve as a banworthy offense.
>>7511 What's dumb about it? If Fringe is so protected, why worry about its resemblance to technomancy?
>>7512 It's the joke that annoys me baka ;_; You hurt my little wizard feelings. *runs away crying*
Cloaked in shadows' veil, Cries of "spy" pierce the quiet— Mirror hides the truth.
This thread gave me cancer.
>>7515 This bread is a dancer.
A jasmine's soft bloom, hidden where the moonlight fades— honor guards its scent.
>>7498 >you are the one causing it with an another large scale spell of yours Fix'd *dips cap*
