Happy to share google drive link to you priv1ately if you’d like.

I opened my smart TV and removed the Bluetooth/WiFi PCI card that was inside it.

Good fucking luck connecting to something you privacy invading piece of shit.

We already do.

Its stupid easy, in fact.

Like. Total time of actual configuration for replacing all the faces and voices in the Empire Strikes back with my face and my voice was like 3 hours.

I think that some people are just assholes. And other people are too sensitive.

Sometimes its a bit of both. Sometimes its one or the other.

I enjoy mercilessly shit talking people who mercilessly shit talk me back. But I have the social awareness to recognize when this isn’t appropriate, and to treat people the way they want to be treated, not how I want to be treated.

The issue that where you could once go and see people that did it just because they wanted to its now mixed in with / overpowered by by people that want to make money.

No one is arguing anyone is entitled to anyone else’s naked body. But I don’t think there is anything wrong with having a preference for wanting to see people who are naked because they want to be, and not because they want to earn money.

Not to mention all the evil / sexual exploitation that comes up once money is in the equation.

Hood news. The afterlife is the same thing as the before life. Remember that? The 4 biillion odd years or so before you existed? Exactly.

I pirate everything. Because fuck you that’s why.

You’re not from America are you?

I ask this because you seem to actually grasp what’s happening.

Stop enabling this shit.

They can intentionally take space or they can talk it out but this shit is infantile and no one with any self respect should tolerate it.

Congrats. You’re an emotionally mature and aware adult. Most people never get to that stage. Its fucking bewildering.

You actually think there are going to be fucking elections in four years? Jfc you people deserve this shit.

The issue isn’t that the parties are the same. It is that neither should be in power. And you’re all too fucking brainwashed to realize the only way out of this mess without violent revolution is a third party gaining power. And even with, probably.

I haven’t laughed so hard in a month. Thank you for that.

Or so many of them died they can’t influence policy anymore.

Pm me if you feel like ripping your hair out and putting a whole in the wall with your face. Which I often did. I can try and help. Though there are probably better options

Is there a place to put comments like this? Some kind of “how to lose an argument” community?

If you disagree with the numbers you can argue them coherently. Like, that’s how facts work. If there are issues with the data you make a compelling argument by pointing them out. Data doesn’t give a fuck about your feelings, refusing to contribute meaningfully to the argument doesn’t make you superior, it makes you look like an idiot, and doubling down on your refusal to engage meaningfully with the content makes you look even dumber.

You have time to hand wave away shit you don’t agree with but don’t have time to make.a cogent argument? You’re too good for.it.all when you’re called out for it? Is it maybe because.you don’t understand economics?

Because I sure as fuck don’t. But I do understand that its a real academic.discipline that involves lots of real math that I also.don’t understand. And while I take most.of what I read on the internet with a grain of salt people in this thread that do appear to understand some of those things are indicating this Dara is likely correct. And those arguing that it isnt don’t appear to be able to articulate why.

So my own conclusion is that there’s probably.something to this. But it doesnt really matter if there is or isnt, really, because I’ll never do anything with the info. Still, I choose to see this as a glimmer of.hope in troubling times.

Although if you are able to articulate your “all economics.is bullshit” theory, I’m pretty sure the many many doctorate holders in economics would love to have you destroy their field of study. You could usher in a revolution in economics. You could create whole new academic.disciplines, and do to.economics.what the scientific method did to natural.philosophy. In that case, don’t you have an intellectual duty to lay out.your argument?

Unless of course its just hand waving bullshit.

They’re the same thing.

Get he out lest he be ready to drop to your knees and gibe praise to the righteous AUR as it doth demand.

No you’re not.

I’m Canadian. We have first past the post. Largely its a toss up between 1 of 2 parties federally but our far left party has won provincial elections and was within spitting distance of winning federally in recent memory.

It isnt fptp that’s prevenring you from electing a third party. Its your share delusion that it can’t happen.

My old PC.
