WiFi being in the microwave range of the spectrum, surely it packs information much more densely and efficiently than lower wavelength frequencies like radio ever can.
But then WiFi can’t turn a goddamned corner and into another room ten yards away. - Comment on 3's grip looks the most comfy 1 week ago:

It’s hypocritical republicans who LOUDLY incite and stoke any of the culture wars you refer to. Anyone with half a brain can see that since at least two decades ago.
Yet another reason in a very long list as to why both parties are NOT the same. But that ship has sailed, I have lost all faith in the american electorate. Stubbornly ignorant, utterly misguided voters allowed the noisy felons back in, and they will NOT give up power on good faith. All while global warming continues to ramp up. It’s too fucking late.

- Comment on Why is it that in every movie podcast, when they happen to mention actor RALPH Fiennes, always say RAY Fiennes? 5 weeks ago:
Fiennes does seem to come from a posh background, doesn’t he?
Then maybe a commoner trained in Shakespeare can and does develop that poshness, the ability to deliver it effortlessly.
Was, for example, Peter O’Toole a noble or a hoodlum? Because there seems to be a bit of both in him at the same time.But then I take a look at the full Fiennes family name and oof… there’s some olde stubbornly blue roots in there, in plain sight. The kind of thing you would spy on the guestlist for the weekly Saxe-Coburg canasta evening.
So is Rafe like the black sheep of his family, because he went prancing off to theater school and the bohemian lifestyle instead of a sturdy and dignified profession, like banking?

- Comment on Why Are People Surprised When Trump Actually Follows Through? 5 weeks ago:
the vast majority of US citizens are abjectly fucking stupid who have no clear understanding how absolutely anything works or any understanding of how consequences follow actions
This happens both equally with the maga batshit crazy voters, and the narcissistic “my vote is a pure and delicate flower”/“bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL” non-voters.
Which is of course exploited by bad-faith actors pushing these lazy idiots back down on the couch and stroking their hollow vanity, to not do what they already didn’t want to do - doing the homework instead of just getting their “facts” from twitter or tiktok or whatever, taking the time and effort to register and vote, if just once a year, or at the very least once every two years for the midterms.
These idiots want instant results, have not a shred of a clue as to what political inertia is; just as medieval as maga, they want a political messiah with a magic political wand.
The 2010 midterms proved that these fickle mediocre idiots did NOT have Obama’s back, and lazily initiated a cascade that drowned their own future, rewarded the fascists for their virulent hysterical opposition, and to this day remain mindlessly, narcissistically oblivious to the fact.
Their mediocre motto as a mediocre electoral block is “If at first you don’t succeed, give up.”So much of the world has rightly lost all faith in the intelligence and decency of the average american. As in - they have none, distractedly and lovingly fondling their purity, then sniffing their fingers and picking their teeth with those nails.

Quantum mechanics is an area of physics that leans on measurement as a central concept. What things are doing between measurements is not its’ concern, and don’t even stop and think about it, you’ll go nuts, just shut up and calculate!
- Comment on Bernie Sanders talking to progressives about how the Democrats' messaging needs to change [Day 82] 5 weeks ago:
The average USA voter has already given hitler the keys to the kingdom.
In 2016, the battleground state non-voter empowered the goose-steppers and crippled everyone’s future.
In 2024, the average USA non-voter ignored every single alarm bell going full blast and destroyed any hope for that future.And still the average USA non-voter sits, twiddling their thumbs, waiting to be catered to, to be dazzled. Waiting for their own version of a messiah with a magic political wand, too lazy, ignorant to the point of medieval, and impatient to even begin and try to understand the principle of inertia, how political will builds up over time and several election cycles.
The right-wing propaganda trick is to get people to NOT do what they didn’t want to do in the first place - homework is boring, voting is lame, amirite?
After a quarter of a century of having hope in the eventual decency of the USA electorate, the entire world has given up on them, as moscow and beijing salivate like hungry rats. Now it’s every man for himself.
The average non-voter must be very proud; must feel very special right about now. Congratulations. - Comment on My kids bored out of their minds with a house full of toys, don't know how good they got it 1 month ago:
