Thank you for the summary Ryan. It helps me better understand what people on this forum are talking about. I also agree with this thesis.
I have not read
High Strangeness. Per your recommendation, I will read
The Wave first.
Thank you for the link! Bookmarked.
I just finished watching all Ms. Laura's videos on YouTube. I will work on converting
The Wave to an audiobook as I can't read long texts anymore. That job will take some time because I haven't found an open-source A.I. I can run locally.
Thank you for being patient with me.
I just upgraded my computer so it can run local A.I. I'm still hammering out the "New Build Bugs".
