- Comment on Las Vegas' dystopia-sphere, powered by 150 Nvidia GPUs and drawing up to 28,000,000 watts, is both a testament to the hubris of humanity and an admittedly impressive technical feat | PC Gamer 4 months ago:
even deserts host life. it’s kind of a ecological misnomer that we could just cover the deserts of the world in solar panels. that would have serious repercussions.

i’m guessing you’re too young or foreign to remember what the economic landscape looked like in the 70’s/80’s early post civil rights era. there was rampant poverty in black communities, especially in the south where i’m from. affirmative action helped bring those people up from that (but didn’t finish the job - there is still rampant generational poverty). those were good government programs aimed at a more egalitarian society. sorry if that sounds ‘sketch’.

all you gotta do is just support a radical by-any-means-necessary approach and be vocal about it until it reaches critical mass.
- Comment on Take a gander at this 4 months ago:
so then you don’t support affirmative actions laws?

then we need to keep encouraging chaotic good as an option until we are all ready to do something.

could it? i mean, women have been fighting for equality since at least the turn of the 20th century and we’re still not there.
- Comment on Take a gander at this 4 months ago:
i’m going to make it both. we really do need to advance women’s equality before we let men take their identities in order to dilute the few offsets women have had legislated for them.
just like how many affirmative action band-aids are being ripped off before poc have actually gotten equal footing in society, we are pushing women’s advances backwards by pretending that we live in an equal society and allowing men to take advantage of the mechanisms meant to promote equality.
- Comment on Take a gander at this 4 months ago:
because laws like this were made to offset the patriarchal dominance of a society shaped by men for centuries. it’s unfair to women to let men just take those offsets away from them and it’s the elephant in the room that nobody wants to address as they cheer for trans-women’s rights.

don’t take to the streets. take to the dark web. be smart. don’t be a mob. know which targets bring the most results. clandestine and precise. once upon a time, we had very smart people at the helm of the internet. i fear those people don’t exist any more.

The truth is the winners have already won
this. it’s all a big game and there are only winners and losers. good and evil are just ideas. if you believe in something, you go for the throat to make it reality. otherwise, you’re just a loser on the internet bitching about it. more of you need to wake up to this fact.

the american people are just as spineless. anybody could open up a few seats. all it takes is a little patience and planning. those of you waiting on a corrupt system to fix itself are the biggest dipshits on the planet.

the music i get access to for the price i pay is worth far more than the money i don’t get for the music i wrote.

thank you. the fact that we aren’t rioting to have more automated services that pass the cost benefit on to the people is something i’ll never understand. we have the tools to build utopia but they can;t figure out how to make enough money from it.

i think that if i am going to be forced to purchase a product from the market, then the government should just provide the product. add the damages to my tax bill if i get in an accident that’s my fault.
but don’t make me buy shit just to function in society.
it’s a scam. the money you pay in is always more than they pay out. it’s a for profit industry that i’m forced to fund. it’s a racket, no different from organized crime.
- Comment on How to opt out of the privacy nightmare that comes with new Hondas 6 months ago:
no thanks. i hate the entire concept of insurance (especially lawfully forced insurance). there’s no way i want them spying on me.
there are parts of the west where there’s not another car for miles. why should i be punished for minor infractions on a lonely country road when i put no one but myself at risk? this is the same as getting ticketed by a camera for running a red light in the middle of nowhere.
if the law and technology becomes a tool of oppression, it no longer serves a useful purpose for mankind.

yeah, my android did better at predictive text than my iphone does. it refuses to recognize even the simplest proper nouns on many occasions.
