Today marks the anniversary of the downfall of the Lord of the Rings (Sauron) and the fall of Barad-dûr
Sometimes you just have to put the silly mini combo together for a laugh.
Oh ja - #Sauron erweist sich auch via KI als feindseliger Dualist!
Weise & dialogisch-monistisch rät dagegen #Momo, digital inszeniert durch eine andere Studentin:
„Momo: (lächelt sanft) Alles, was wertvoll ist, braucht Zeit. Aber Zeit gehört nur denen, die sie sich nehmen.“ #Zeit #Aufmerksamkeitsökonomie #Medienethik #Reflektion #Weltanschauung
Wow, eine Studentin hat für die KI-Klausur einen #SauronGPT programmiert! Und dieser lehrt (nach einem höhnischen Lachen) u.a. über Konzern-#Neurohacking : „Überwinde die digitale Thymokratie, indem du nicht um Anerkennung kämpfst, sondern die Mechanismen kontrollierst, die sie verteilen – denn wahre Macht gehört nicht denen, die beklatscht werden, sondern denen, die entscheiden, wer Gehör findet.“
Würde sagen, Lern- & Reflektionsziele erreicht!

McSweeney's lays out the story of an undecided Hobbit trying to choose whether to give his vote to "A dark lord who promises an age of chaos or an elf queen whom I just wish I knew more about." https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/im-an-undecided-hobbit-torn-between-a-dark-lord-who-promises-an-age-of-chaos-and-an-elf-queen-whom-i-just-wish-i-knew-more-about

@Starcade Looks like the last episode of Season 2 of the #RingsOfPower explains why the 1 ring in #LordOfTheRings will be the undoing of #Sauron (who is named as the "Lord of the Rings" by the "ring maker") and also explains the origin of the "tall stranger" who is so instrumental to the story in #LOTR & who is "killed" in #LOTR by the "evil beast" unleashed by the #DwarfKing from the depths of their mountain while under the influence of 1 of the rings.
It took 2 years & 3 movies & over 6 hrs of film time to tell the story of the #LOTR & it took 2 seasons & about 16 hrs of scree time in the #ROP to get to this point in the story.
So, given the complexities, I wonder how many more seasons & hrsit will take to complete the #ROP.
5 or 6? At 2 yrs of production per season for Seasons 1-2, I can only hope to live long enough to see it all b4 I kick the bucket. LOL!
One little detail that I love in Rings of Power is that Sauron never blinks, for he has all-seeing eyes.

New veggie #piranha-like species named after #Tolkien villain https://phys.org/news/2024-06-veggie-piranha-species-tolkien-villain.html
"#Scientists formally described and named the Myloplus #sauron because its round body and distinctive orange and black markings closely resemble the infamous evil eye of the character. The #NewSpecies, one of two recently named by scientists as part of an effort to better understand #fish #biodiversity in the #AmazonRiver, has human-like teeth to suit its plant-based diet."
