This was actually one of my favorite threads a while back. We were all trying to decide. I think we had 15 or 20 suggestions and in the end had fuck all to show for it because no one could decide on anything.
I remember that conversation as well. It was inconclusive. Whenever I want to talk about something a hubski person said, I use the term "hubskiverse" as in, "I was lurking in the hubskiverse the other day and read that we will all be able to connect to the Global Brain via implants." What do you think? Kind of poetic, eh? Meanwhile, let's hope theadvancedapes did some magic at the Global Brain Institute.
I imagine it was a long, intricate, intelligent discussion going into the complexities of what each term implied. The debate probably lasted a couple months or so, and everyone walked away with their own opinion. Reddit's was more of: 5 seconds of bickering, and everyone agrees that the "smart" and "intellectual" move is to just put "or" at the end. Because that's how everything is, right?
