Personally, I view it as propaganda still, but I don’t view propaganda as bad inherently.
Propaganda to me is just an organized effort to persuade a larger audience of people politically. Its only bad if the aims are harmful unjustly.
So people organizing a take over to reiterate “No fucking Nazis!” Is a propaganda campaign, but its based.

- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 1 week ago:
Societal collapse? No gold won’t save you. Tools and how to use them will.
Maybe during hyperinflation though.
Gods not a terrible investment but it doesn’t have a short term ROI just a REALLY long term one.
I hate Bitcoin but its probably a better investment (and just as useful) than gold.
I’m a fudd though and ONLY buy stable stocks that yield reliable dividends though. ETFs, S&P stuff.

The line between art and fetish I think isn’t real.
Why else would so much art just be naked people?

Gods, I’m considering Job hopping and I saw Lockheed was hiring for my role, less experience, less certs, and quadruple my pay.
I had to block them on indeed and LinkedIn. I hated that I was considering it.
- Comment on Shout out to my engineering homies. 2 weeks ago:
One of the guys I went to college with is an amazing programming and had such a great understanding of C that hes why i got as far into CS as i did, couldn’t get a job after grad because 1) Covid and more importantly 2) he’s insufferable.
He got a job making $100k a year for I wanna say Lockheed because he quote “Wrote good looking code”. That’s all they needed because Tue DoD already told them that the project he was hired for was not going to be adopted, but they were still contracted for minimum 2 more years of development and Lockheed would be in breach of contract if they weren’t making progress even though it was already Dead.
The Military industrial complex is JUST a grift to put tax dollars in private hands.
- Comment on Why do some Americans "feel ashamed" for being American even when it's not their fault? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t have pride in my government or its actions.
It was actively causing a lot of harm for most of its existence and is now turbo charging its ability to enshittify the world.
The LEAST I can do is make it clear we’re not all in support of this shit.
Love the country and people though. Lots of cool forests to roam and lots of people who don’t suck.

Odd way to learn altman is gay.
Kinda shocked I’ve never seen a “worlds richest gay man!” Headline. That feels like low hanging fru-

He’s a libertarian who is, self admittedly, hard to work with. He’s also petty and a pedant.
Great for right to repair and digital sovereignty, but there’s a lot more arguably real issues in the world than making sure my tech is upgradable. Like I’m pretty sure he talk about supporting RFK Jr in 24 [citation needed]'. I don’t follow him as closely since he made a 20 minute video trying to argue that AOC is wrong about there being no such thing as unskilled labor by explaining the exact point.
I really don’t wanna know his thoughts on trans rights or the mass racist deportations.

- Comment on Mini pc for home server? 1 month ago:
And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.
Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120
That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.
There’s also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it
- Comment on Not Looking for a recipe or a how to guide. But when meth rolled thru my town they called it either redneck speed or bathtub speed. With all chemicals did people really do it in a bathtub?? 1 month ago:
I knew a guy who did actually make method in his apartment bathtub.
It was in part to make clean up easier and also had ventilation!
Although that guys was an odd duck and chemistry genius. He’s a PHd student now and was actually making them meth so he could try meth he “trusted”
I doubt your average method manufacturer cares that much about safety though.
