PREPARING FOR THE MARK: Sweden Leading The World In Human RFID Microchip Implantation As Thousands Of Swedes Line Up To Be Chipped

This might sound like an Orwellian nightmare to some but in Sweden it is a welcome reality for a growing number who favours convenience over concerns of potential personal data violations. The small microchip implants were first used in 2015 in Sweden — initially confidentially — and several other countries.

It’s the size of a grain of rice but could hold the key to many aspects of your life. A tiny microchip inserted under the skin can replace the need to carry keys, credit cards and train tickets.

EDITOR’S NOTE: While adoption of the human implantable RFID microchip has been relatively slow to catch on here in the United States, it is going like a house on fire all across Europe and Asia. In Sweden, thousands of citizens are using thier chipped hands on a daily basis to make NFC purchases, start their vehicles and to unlock and open the doors to their homes. As one Swede so accurately put it, “I was so excited to get chipped, it really is the future”. And on that note she is 100% correct, for a global population where the majority of the people are unsaved, Christ-rejecting individuals, it absolutely is their future. In that day it will be known as the Mark Of The Beast. Or…you can get saved and become born again, and have a completely different future in Heaven when the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church takes place shortly. Choose. 

“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16,17 (KJV)

This might sound like an Orwellian nightmare to some but in Sweden it is a welcome reality for a growing number who favours convenience over concerns of potential personal data violations. The small microchip implants were first used in 2015 in Sweden — initially confidentially — and several other countries.

Swedes have gone on to be very active in microchipping, with scant debate about issues surrounding its use, in a country keen on new technology and where the sharing of personal information is held up as a sign of a transparent society.

Twenty-eight year-old Ulrika Celsing is one of 3,000 Swedes to have injected a microchip into her hand to try out a new way of life.

To enter her workplace, the media agency Mindshare, she simply waves her hand on a small box and types in a code before the doors open. “It was fun to try something new and to see what one could use it for to make life easier in the future,” she told AFP.

In the past year, the chip has turned into a kind of electronic handbag and has even replaced her gym card, she said. If she wanted to, she could also use it to book train tickets.

Sweden’s SJ national railway company has won over some 130 users to its microchip reservation service in a year. Conductors scan passengers’ hands after they book tickets online and register them on their chip.

Sweden has a track record on the sharing of personal information, which may have helped ease the microchip’s acceptance among the Nordic country’s 10 million-strong population.

Citizens have long accepted the sharing of their personal details, registered by the social security system, with other administrative bodies, while people can find out each others’ salaries through a quick phone call to the tax authority.

The microchip implants use Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, also used in credit cards, and are “passive”, which means they hold data that can be read by other devices but cannot read information themselves.

Although still small, they have the capacity to hold train tickets, entry pass codes as well as access certain vending machines and printers, promoters say. When Celsing’s innovatively minded media company organised an event where employees could get the implants, she followed the crowd.

She said she felt nothing but a slight sting when the syringe inserted the chip into her left hand, which she now uses on an almost daily basis and does not fear hacking or possible surveillance.

“I don’t think our current technology is enough to get chip hacked,” she says. “But I may think about this again in the future. I could always take it out then,” she adds.

However, for Ben Libberton, a microbiologist working for MAX IV Laboratory in the southern city of Lund which provides X-rays for research, the danger is real. The chip implants could cause “infections or reactions of the immune system”, he warned.

But the biggest risk, he added, was around the data contained in the chip. “At the moment, the data collected and shared by implants is small, but it’s likely that this will increase,” the researcher said.

The real question, he added, is what data is collected and who shares it. “If a chip can one day detect a medical problem, who finds out and when?” he asked. Libberton worried that “the more data is stored in a single place as could happen with a chip, the more risk it could be used against us.”

But Jowan Osterlund, a piercings specialist and self-proclaimed champion of chip implantation, brushes off fears of data misuse and conspiracy theories. He advocates the opposite view, arguing that if we carried all our personal data on us, we would have better control of their use.

Despite unanswered questions however about how the technology will progress, the appeal of being part of a futuristic experience is a strong draw for some users.

“In Sweden, people are very comfortable with technology and I would say there is less resistance to new technology here than in most other places,” Libberton said.

At an ‘implant party’ organised by Osterlund in Stockholm, 59-year-old Anders Brannfors stands out with his salt-and-pepper hair among the curious 30-something hipsters. Delighted to have become a 2.0 version of himself, he has yet however to find a use for his chip several weeks after the implant. source

Monster Energy Drink Company Launches ‘The Beast Unleashed’ Hard Seltzer Alcoholic Beverage Complete With 666 And The All-Seeing Eye On Every Can

Monster Energy Drink company has launched ‘The Beast Unleashed’ with 666 on every can to remind you of the rising spirit of the coming Antichrist

There has never been more information so readily available at the touch, swipe or tap of a smart device screen as there is right here right now in 2023. And yet, from a spiritual perspective, we are heartbreakingly ignorant of basic Bible truths. Paul tells us that our eyes and ears aren’t working right and our hearts have ‘waxed gross’. Habakkuk tells us that we are watching prophecy coming true and not believing what we’re seeing. The Monster Energy Drink company last month launched ‘The Beast Unleashed’ with the Illuminati all-seeing eye of Horus and 666 on every can, and it didn’t even cause a minor stir. How could that be? Because this world is preparing itself to receive Antichrist, that’s how.

“Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2:11 (KJB)

Satanism in America is literally all around you, it permeates social media, advertising, marketing, television, music and movies. For every one gospel witness billboard up on the highway, there are 100 advertisements for the things of Satan like smoking, the consumption of alcohol, fornication, perversion and gambling. The Monster Energy Drink logo is designed to look like the claw marks of an animal, but is actually 3 instances of the number 6 in Hebrew. There’s your first 666. With ‘The Beast Unleashed’ drink, they’ve set the alcohol percentage level firmly at 6 percent, and place next to it a second instance of their 666 logo. What does that give you? It gives you an alcoholic drink called ‘The Beast’ with 666 on every can 3 times, with the all-seeing eye in the background watching you while you drink it. Wake up, Christian, awake from your slumber and get something done for the Lord Jesus Christ while you still can.

‘The Beast Unleashed’ is the latest 666 offering from the Monster Energy Drink company

FROM CRAFTJACKS: The Beast Unleashed is a flavored malt alcoholic beverage designed to ensure you never leave the house, nor your screen or controller, ever again. The Ready-to-Drink Hard Seltzer is being sold 21 years after the release of Monster’s immensely popular energy drink.

21+ Gamers, Pros and Noobs alike, are rejoicing from the comfort of their parents converted-to-a-living-quarters basements as they remind their mothers to come home with a 12 pack of The Beast next time she goes to the grocery store.

Either way, Monster Energy drinks just got hard. Make no mistake about it though, 6% ABV isn’t a crushing amount, considering most contemporary IPAs fall around that range. Even at 16 fl oz, The Beast won’t unleash any demons within you until you’re on your third, fourth or even fifth go-round.

The Beast Unleashed will be targeting lifestyle enthusiasts, social media influencers, programmers, engineers, developers, Bro Culturists, Gamers, E-Sports players, and anyone who is normally into having a good time with synthetic tasting flavors. READ MORE

New TikTok Trend Of ‘Trad Wife’ Catches On As More And More Women Showing Interest In Traditional And Biblical Marriage Roles For Men And Women

Published

on

NOW THE END BEGINS SHARE:

A trad wife, short for traditional wife, according to TikTok creator Estee Williams, is ‘a woman who prefers to take a traditional or ultra-traditional role in marriage, including the beliefs that a woman’s place is in the home.’

It’s quite interesting to see how that, in this plastic and highly-artificial world we’ve created for ourselves, from time to time there is a stirring to return to purity and wholesomeness even if it’s just a temporary trend on TikTok. How well I can recall how different mothers were when I was growing up, and the strong emphasis placed on family and making a house into a home. That time period wasn’t perfect, but it was a whole lot less scary than life is here in 2023. I would much rather have a ‘trad wife’ who cherishes her husband than a ‘hot mom’ who’s overly-focused on self-care and self-love. Mary Hatch in ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ comes immediately to mind, as does the Proverbs 31 woman.

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.” Proverbs 31:10-12 (KJB)

While we’re on the subject of social media and the Communist Chinese-owned TikTok, does it disturb you that people are now living their lives in group think? The influence and sway that social media exerts on the minds of people, especially young people, is astounding. The whole world is preparing itself for the events laid out in places like Revelation 13, where AI will create floating images that will speak and receive worship. In the meantime, the dividing line between humans and the smart devices that control us continues to disintegrate.

The TikTok viral ‘trad wife’ trend accused of ‘romanticizing an era where sexism and racism ruled’

FROM THE NY POST: While these women channel the structure of a stereotypical 1950s household in which the husband goes to work while their wives stay home to cook, clean, and care for any children, those behind the trend say it’s so much more – particularly in the age of burnout and struggles to maintain a work-life balance in the post-COVID age.

“It doesn’t mean that we are trying to take away what women fought for,” Williams said in a TikTok video from September. “There are a lot of people trying to make this a sinister thing or put some other, darker meaning behind the term ‘trad wife.’ Nobody is doing that.

“No trad wife TikToker is saying every woman’s place is in their home. We, as individuals are just choosing to be homemakers. That’s all.”

Williams argues that being a trad wife is not a movement but rather a lifestyle. She also, in her September TikTok, argued that those behind the lifestyle don’t see women as less important than men just because they are submissive to their husbands.

Other videos aligning with the #tradwife hashtag show women baking, sweeping floors, and trying on mid-century-style dresses as they rave about the liberating transition from their old way of life to their new one. Others focus on the biblical implications of being a homemaker and how being a trad wife allows them to fulfill the role. READ MORE

Are You Ready To Receive Your ‘Digital Human’ Chatbot So Your Generative AI Software Will Make You Think You Are Interacting With A Real Person?

D-ID’s platform will utilize its already proven text-to-video software in order to turn an AI chatbot into a real fake person

Since the launch of the personal computer in the 1980’s to the advent of the internet in 1994, our global society has been on a collusion course with robots, aliens, and everything else dystopian movie classic ‘The Matrix’ warned us about. In 2023, the hottest new thing is called generative AI, and it will revolutionize how we live and conduct business every bit as much as air travel at the dawn of the 20th century. Of course, if you have a King James Bible, this little ‘newsflash’ we’re bringing you today is approximately 2,000 years old.

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Revelation 13:15 (KJB)

If you’re thinking of ‘getting off the grid’ you’ve missed your chance by about a decade now, so don’t waste your time trying to do that. No one gets off the grid now, the door is closed, and the only way out is up, as in Flight #777 up, as in 23 skidoo up. The robots are receiving brains now, brains that can think because they’re modeled on your brain. Remember that Twilight Zone episode of the couple living with robots who were convinced they were human? That’s you, baby, that’s what’s happening now. Tick, tick, people…and I don’t mean TikTok.

D-ID launches AI Digital Human platform so you can look your chatbot in the eyes

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: Generative AI is one of the industry-defining technologies of the hi-tech world in 2023, and the recent popularity of platforms such as ChatGPT and DALL-E has led to a seemingly non-stop cavalcade of new AI innovations. Smart text chatbots have become an integral medium of interaction between consumers and brands, and D-ID hopes to alleviate some of the frustration associated with that interaction.

One of the latest comes by way of generative AI platform developer D-ID, which on Wednesday launched a chat platform that will enable face-to-face conversations with an “AI Digital Human,” made possible by the company’s proprietary text-to-video tech.

While the technology could be applied in several ways, from creative to educational, D-ID expects that it will be best utilized by enterprises and developers, allowing them to create photorealistic digital assistants who can interact with consumers in a more human, engaging, and effective way. These digital assistants can be used to improve customer support, sales, training, personal finance, and a host of other applications, and are likely to increase conversion and customer experience while lowering overall costs.

“Large language models like GPT-3 and LaMDA are changing the way we relate to and interact with technology, and we are not far off from all of us having our own personalized AI assistants and companions,” said Gil Perry, CEO and co-founder of D-ID. “We are making tech more human by giving it a face and making the interaction more natural. I am very proud of D-ID, which continues to be at the cutting edge of the emergent generative AI industry.”

There is currently buzz among experts regarding the ethical development of AI. As generative AI becomes more prevalent among consumers and businesses alike with each passing day, the need for its increased transparency becomes more relevant. READ MORE 

You Are Now The ‘Obsolete Man’

The name of this episode is ‘The Obsolete Man’, and what makes him that is two things. One, he’s a human living in the time of technology, and two, he’s a Bible believer who reads the word and trusts in God. Do you really need a long explanation about this, or do you just get it? I really hope you do.
