- Comment on YSK: Israel is ethnically cleansing Lebanon 14 hours ago:
You got it all wrong. The US doesn’t want to do this, Israel wants to do this and have bought enough US politicians to pull it off. The US created a monster and it’s in control now. The US also needs a base in the middle east and wants access to Israel’s intelligence apparatus. Any time the US tries to flex, Bibi just threatens to make friends with Russia instead, and if the president is a giant pussy like Biden or especially Trump, they fold rather than call the bluff.

Chakotay is memorable because the “Native American” advisor they hired to help write the character was a total fraud, just some honky from LA pretending to be Cherokee and making everything up, That’s why Chakotay sucked so hard, he was made of some loser’s stereotypes.

He’s not even making most of those responses to Trump. His social media manager is doing it. He’s still just another Howard Schultz. “I like the idea of equality as long as rich people don’t have to reduce the rate at which they become richer.”

There’s already a war against them by their own government that’s killed over 30,000 Iranians since late December. Civilians are being slaughtered either way, but this way means that maybe the Ayatollahs won’t be in power at the end.
- Comment on ..? 2 weeks ago:
He did, as much as he could once he learned shit was going down, but it turns out Iran’s intelligence, air defense and operational security all suck so he died in his bunker. He’s killed almost as many Iranians in a couple months of protests as Netanyahu has killed Palestinians since the Oct 7 attacks. Bibi is absolute trash, but to pretend like Khamenei was better in any way is insane. They’re both completely evil cowards.

“Amazon says the system is secured against hackers” …You dumb evil pieces of shit, your employees and malicious government and law enforcement entities are a far greater risk than hackers. “We’re spying on everything you do and giving Trump’s constitution-ignoring lackeys access, but at least hackers aren’t, probably”
- Comment on Hrmmm 5 weeks ago:
Razor slims have shitty protection if the battery dies, only 22db, which is not enough without also using foamies. Also their sound quality is dogshit compared to the equally cheap Impact Sport electronic muffs, which also sacrifice passive protection for slimmer dimensions. Proper passive muffs are 30-33db reduction.

English clearly isn’t their first language, but the intent is pretty obviously “As if they aren’t already making ARC GPUs?”

At first I assumed it was in lbs and was like “wow, you’re tiny” and that didn’t seem right so I zoomed in and went “wow, you’re huge”
- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 1 month ago:
No, you need an alternative to apps in the Apple app store, which already exist. Don’t pay for anything through an app on an Apple device, they will rob the creator. Pay through the Patreon web site.

- Comment on Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn 3 months ago:
Porn is just the foot in the door to force ID for connecting to the Internet. This is techno-fascist dystopian police-state shit, and the “don’t tread on me” crowd is just bending over and saying “Please, sir, may I have another? No lube this time!”

Look at this unfuckable loser. He’s like if someone glued Steve Bannon’s pubes to Steven Miller’s head. “Let us destroy all freedom in the USA so China doesn’t win the race to economically out-compete the USA” is as bullshit a justification as there has ever been for anything in the history of everything.
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 4 months ago:
My 50" 4K TV was $250. That TV is now $200, nobody is flexing the resolution of their 4k TV, that’s just a regular cheap-ass TV now. When I got home and started using my new TV, right next to my old 1080p TV just to compare, the difference in resolution was instantly apparent. It’s not people trying to defend their purchase, it’s people questioning the methodology of the study because the difference between 1080p and 4k is stark unless your TV is small or you’re far away from it. If you play video games, it’s especially obvious.
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 4 months ago:
4k is way better than 1080p, it’s not even a question. You can see that shit from a mile away. 8k is only better if your TV is comically large.
