- Comment on If the United States has Cuba banned from things, how does Guantanamo Bay exist? 3 weeks ago:
It is an acute example of the whole world’s problem with American military bases on foreign soil. They want them to leave but can’t make them.
- Comment on HDMI 2.2 will require new “Ultra96” cables, whenever we have 8K TVs and content 3 weeks ago:
That’s why I added it as an addendum. Even sourcing HDMI cables without HDCP is getting very very rare.
- Comment on HDMI 2.2 will require new “Ultra96” cables, whenever we have 8K TVs and content 3 weeks ago:
The HDMI standard needs to declare cable bankruptcy and start over with a new design. We all have way too many HDMI cables supporting 23 years of standards.
Also, the DRM baked into the specification is such bullshit.

So that’s the Slim referenced by Weird Al. As with all things Weird, I assumed incorrectly that Slim was fictional. My naivety once again comes to the fore.

The line must go up, lives be damned.
- Comment on Funny how uniting this is somehow 1 month ago:
I mean, fuck the capitalist in every industry squeezing our healthcare options tighter each year for investor profit. Fuck the capitalists that keep us all from having unions. Fuck the capitalists that force so many of us into two or three jobs to survive. Fuck the capitalists for making people decide between food and medication. Fuck the capitalists that require “dependable transportation” but destabilize public transit so it takes two hours to go 5 miles. Fuck the capitalists that invest in war rather than social welfare.
It isn’t funny, persay, it is past fucking time.

- Comment on Why do the majority of women still take their partner's last name? 2 months ago:
Exactly, this is a strange concept to get hung up on. In China and North and South Korea, a woman in a stereotypical heterosexual marriage keeps her name and the children get the father’s name.
- Comment on If Orange Dickhead dies before taking his oath again will sucession still be applicable? Like Vance the new pres and Johnson the new VP? 2 months ago:
Which again, is inevitable. Good luck getting the Supreme Court to rule against the Republicans. The ticket was on the ballot, not the individual candidate for President.
- Comment on Why do the majority of women still take their partner's last name? 2 months ago:
This conversation is so white and western culture centric. Many cultures have different norms. Centering on this as there normal route globally is strange.
- Comment on If Orange Dickhead dies before taking his oath again will sucession still be applicable? Like Vance the new pres and Johnson the new VP? 2 months ago:
Yes. The ticket got elected, not just orange turdsicle.
