People who claim they cannot see any difference between 1080p and 4K screens — I just don’t believe them. It’s so insanely obvious I think they are just saying that so they don’t have to spend more money on a better monitor.
Unless you have, like, 20/100 vision the difference is like looking at a pebble and boulder and claiming they are exactly the same.
Surely people cannot be that vision-impaired and still read without glasses?
The primary accepted upper-middle class paradigm in the West, currently, is Prey Morality – i.e. failure.
"Masculine leadership is bad."
"Our history is disgusting."
"Our ancestors were filth."
"What we did can never be forgiven."
"We are uniquely evil."
This has to be… https://t.co/23xXZMC5PK

Yep. Here’s my land acknowledgment: We took your land. You weren’t powerful enough to keep it. What’s done is done. Deal with it.
That’s really all you need to say.
And no, I didn’t vote for Trump and I wouldn’t vote for him if he somehow ran again.
I just hate hypocritical clown liars on either side. That’s all.
Matt Taibbi was talking on his podcast about how no one flinched during Obama’s presidency when they’d carry out the ‘double tap’ drone strikes:
They’d drop a bomb on some ostensible terrorists.
And then they’d wait and drop another bomb on the first responders: maybe some more…

Indeed. Obama started this. That doesn’t make it right (or wrong). But it was a precedent. Pretending like this began with Trump is false and makes (as is typical lately) the liberal side look deranged. After all, they cheered like mad when their lord and savior Obama did exactly the same thing.

Something I realized during the utterly-moronic AI water usage “debate” is that a lot of progressive degrowther types believe that when water is used somewhere, it literally disappears. Like, they think it poofs into hydrogen and oxygen or just evacuates the universe altogether.
And…dang. I have no words for whatever is going on there. But here’s some anyway: Water is nearly infinitely-renewable. No, this doesn’t solve the problems of cities like Tehran or a lot of India. Though those are in fact soluble (see what I did there) problems. Other than water that is de-molecularized in a few industrial processes and relatively-rare chemical reactions, there is as much fresh water on planet earth now as there was when humans evolved. Yes, of course, how we use it matters. And we could do a lot better at that.
However, when I realized that very many prog types believe that when water runs through a data center loop for 30 seconds it is somehow annihilated and vanishes from the universe forever, I was both disappointed and agog.
Me too. I cannot believe how insanely and weirdly prudish they are. What clowns.

Those who want to control you get really angry when you do not care what they think, but they become incandescently enraged when they realize that you barely even notice them at all.
Love it.
Do most people not realize they are now captured minds fully running the optimization algorithms of other people who care not a bit about them? It’s moved beyond propaganda into possession. We’ve summoned demons from the nether realm and allowed them to irrupt into our most sacred place and rampage with no control and no restraint.
What are we thinking? We aren’t; not any longer.
