- Comment on Why is the manosphere on the rise? UN Women sounds the alarm over online misogyny 1 week ago:
Indeed. Capitalism breeds this crap by focusing on competition excessively and creating an environment where it’s almost mandatory to participate. People need to be looking to exploit people at all times and that is a deflating concept for people.
People also need to go offline. The apps have been taken over by scammers and bots. It’s time to flush again. Which is also related to capitalism.
- Comment on Hertz, showing the difference between science and engineering 1 week ago:
Oh yeah. No one appreciates blue sky research. We don’t know where the question will take us, which is why governments fund the research. They can take on the 0.1% chance something useful is created 20 years later.
- Comment on Is Google about to destroy the web? 1 week ago:
Google is about to become AOL. 😂 The walled garden is going to get destroyed by the open web, again.
Ads already destroyed the web. Developers wanting to make web apps instead of web pages already destroyed the web. Google is trying to prop up the corpse of its dead brand by capturing people in their chat bot.

They would. Mine love to roll around in dead things when I’m not watching.

NIN is the blue ring. 😆
- Comment on What is your favourite way to transfer files in your homelab? 3 months ago:
The daemon maintains state, so the transfers start quicker because rsync doesn’t have to scan the filesystem.
- Comment on Micron just demoed the world's fastest SSD with PCIe 6.x tech, a sequential read speed of 27GB/s, and yes, it's just a prototype for now 3 months ago:
Okay cool, but post the random IOPs please.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 3 months ago:
Isolating the US and breaking US hegemony. Trump is a Putin puppet, and what’s best for Russia is crippling the US economically and diplomatically. Alienating the EU cuts off the EU from the US who would otherwise help the Europeans against the Russians as they try to reclaim their former territories.
This also helps China who is trying to replace the US as the world superpower. BRICS is doing a good job of creating a competing economic alliance, and the US falling apart helps make it more attractive.
Not a conservative, by the way. Just someone who follows the news.
