I am genuinely curious who you believe is ethnically Jewish if Israel is white colonizers pretending to be Jewish? I hear somewhat frequently that there aren’t “real” Jews anymore because intermixing with Europeans (and other ethnicities) diluted their bloodline too much, and it feels not only doublethinky but almost eugenicist.
I canceled my Netflix when they did the account sharing shenanigans, and filled out the exit survey explaining why. I had only kept my Netflix because my parents watched it, then they made it so hard to add a family member addon account I said fuck it and canceled everything.
My parents signed up for their own account, so Netflix didn’t lose total count, but they lost the extra subscriber that was the whole point. I know I am an edge case in not just complaining while taking it, but there is always hope.
That’s what all the street grime is for, making the mud wallow.
You just reminded me to check on the 4th book, and it has been released. Thank you kind sir or madame (or uplifted rat).
First time seeing a Semiosis reference in the wild. Excellent series.
That’s easy: because the side advocating about climate change wants to come into your home and ban your gas stove, your gas water heater, your gas yard equipment, and your vehicles and replace them with “less efficient” versions. There is a ton of “pay more for less” FUD, and just enough of that FUD is or was true for that crowd to see it as a money/power grab.
The side against it is then amplifying all of that while blaming higher prices on the killing of coal and gas while spouting laissez faire freedom propaganda.
The global warming doesn’t exist side believes it is a grift the same way everyone outside the MAGA bubble believes the Alt Right influencer/commentator shit is a grift, or the Flat Earth movement is a grift. There are enough grifters and true believers in any system that can be cherry picked to reinforce any individual’s viewpoint.
Pictures painted by written text that you can hear.
The high failure rates of both Razer and recently Logitech made me try the Razer Basilisk with the optical switches. So far so good on multiclick failures, and it works fine without Razer’s garbage software. It’s a 502 knockoff ergonomically, so its also got that going for it.
I just with someone would recreate the G701 with optical or hall switches, and a decent battery life.
Nah, America is cursed because it was built on an ancient Indian burial ground, and they only moved the grave markers while leaving the bodies there.
Yes, but as much as we all like the Brutalism style, would the cost difference really not be worth it for Art Deco or anything a bit more psychologically welcoming or uplifting combined with generous green spacing and walkability.
Layer 8 is colloquially the User, as that is the next “layer” up above the application. Only really used in a troubleshooting context indicating where the issue took place, it’s the networking equivalent for an PEBKAC (problem exists between keyboard and chair). For this analogy, layer 8 would probably be physics itself though.
I felt the OSI model was pretty relevant because while speeds and latency has improved astronomically, it is all still run off of the Ethernet framework and the humble copper twisted pair and fiber optic cable aren’t really substantively different than they were in the 70s.
Another way to look at it is comparing water to electricity itself. No one is complaining that going from the electric light bulb to vacuum tube logic gates to semiconducter logic gates to q-bit logic gates is just “using physics to direct electrons again”.
Boiling water is just the layer 1 physical transport, all the cool stuff is happening at layers 2-7. The real mind blowing breakthrough would be if they finally did something to fix layer 8, but I ain’t holding my breath.
Every time I notice I cannot use my full refresh rate over the HDMI on my 7900xtx in Linux because of licencing issues, I get rationally pissed off.
Unfortunately we are all out of name brand luxury gay space communism.
We do, however, have Temu deluxe ambiguous resource “sharing” managed by Grok, and an couple open packs of glow in the dark ceiling stars. Only $19.99 a month at 30% interest when you buy now, pay later.
But the other options are Junos, whatever unholy abomination Dell is doing now, or HPE Aruba.
Reading that both made me dumber just by its existence and made me throw up a little in my mouth.
God, I almost trauma blocked the driver situation for that first year or three. My q6600 and 8gb of ram ran like greased lightning, and disabling Aero made it even more responsive than 98SE or XP. (I am a latency and user experience fluidity whore though, so sacrificing eye candy for performance was and still is A-OK with me). The Aero design language was still killer even with the bells and whistles turned off.
The main reason to jump from XP (or 98) was the 64 bit jump and breaking the 4gh ram limit. XP x64 was kinda hot garbage, also due to driver issues if I recall correctly.
It would be nice if the old democratic Iran came back to be an actual “peaceful democracy in the Middle East” as a stabilizing entity.
I hope I am wrong about either Sha 2.0 or Islamic Republic remaster.
Oh no doubt, it is both a theocracy and a racial supremacy, with lighter skinned Jewish supremacy to boot. My concern has been with the seeming erasure of Jewish ethnicity through conflation with White Supremacy as the big societal evil of our time.
It just skeeves me out and feels basically racist when people call Israel white European settler colonialism. Like only the evil European White Man could be so evil, so they obviously aren’t “real” Jews. It has the same energy as white supremacists not counting Jews as white, just flipped and repackaged. Maybe it’s just racial purity testing in general not sitting right with me, I don’t like it when either political side does it.
