I agree with the storyteller: the experience of having a slave is abhorrent, simulated or not, and this story is a window into something •deep• about the present moment. Even without having slaves, we are all in danger of having a •slaver mindset•. It’s a disease that’s running rampant now in billionaire-shaped techno-utopian circles.
I wrote this thread on the topic earlier:

…and even having written that, it’s still shocking — not surprising, exactly, but shocking — to hear those thoughts expressed so baldly by the colleague in the story above.

E.g. I have a pre-recorded compact cassette that is 50 years old and works just fine (and sounds great!), and floppy disks from the early 80s that read with no problems.
Yet when I search for this topic everyone always claims "10–20 years" is what to expect from magnetic media.
