  • That line should really be more at $10 million.

    I just imagine if some other planet was making star trek-like first contact with us, I imagine the judgements they would be making.

    So all these people are literally struggling to exist with any kind of happiness at all, while those people fill their pools with currency and burn it to heat their houses. They’re not even close to being ready for us.

    Unless you’ve had like 20 kids and have their families to look after, not one single person needs a net worth in the double digit million range. No one needs that, and you can be damn sure no one deserves it.

    That money should’ve been filtered out from them looooong ago. Just their existence is killing lots of innocent people.

    I’m just gonna be blunt. And I mean exactly what this sounds like.

    There is NOTHING negative you can do to a Nazi lover that could possibly be construed as immoral.

    Illegal, sure (in this current farce of government). But every dead Nazi is good for the world. Bar none, no exclusions. I wanna see Nazi corpses everywhere. I wanna see clips of them suffering before their deaths. Comeuppance is such a delicious beverage. The tears of the wicked can wash anything down.

    They can’t be reformed, and everything they do would be suspect for the rest of their lives. You can’t negotiate with them, either.

    I’m just gonna stop here. I probably got on at least 3 watch lists for this comment.

    Somebody at openai better be requiring stuff so it literally never works to launch anything ever.

    There is no context in which launching nukes is acceptable. The world should completely disarm and destroy all records of how the weapon tech even works.

    Will never be acceptable. We shouldn’t have them, no one else should either.

    If I was elected, my first EO would be to immediately destroy all of ours without making any demands regarding it. We’re all cooked if any of them is used, so I don’t see a downside here. And before any political goals I might have, that would be way higher a priority.

    Maybe but a ceremonial briefcase to represent the occasion as a memorial to the sheer hubris of even thinking of this idea.

    There is no way the PS layout is more comfortable. The left joystick is where it is on every other controller because that is where your thumb goes naturally.

    Even on the other side, the face buttons are used much more commonly than the right stick in most cases. So they put the face buttons there because it’s where your thumb naturally goes.

    Typically it’s not enough more uncomfortable to complain about it if I was like playing at a friend’s place (not that that happens anymore in these last generations, but it was huuuuuuuge in the early 90s), but still more than enough of a difference to never buy one.

    What is the argument that the asymmetrical comfort zones you seem to have for each hand make any sense? The joystick placement may be cockeyed, but where your thumbs are comfortable should not be. I just can’t understand the argument by PS layout fanboys. Hence the question.

    Not the regular people. I’ve got no problem with them. Known several, never had any issues.

    This is more of on the scale of a “big pharma” kinda thing. I think the biggest benefit that idiotic system could ever have to have any hope of getting even half way back to breaking even on their good/bad balance is completely dissolving and actually donating their billions of dollars to something besides buying a new golden throne, and secondly, to execute every priest in their ranks who did the CSA.

    Then there’s the whole spreading their beliefs by force thing.

    I mean they probably all have secrets that are terrible, but that group in particular hasn’t been good, ever.

    I mean I hate everything about catholicism too. I mean I hate all religions, but catholicism specifically. But I don’t burn their symbols. I just avoid any circumstance I would have to be exposed to of it.

    But yeah, still doesn’t make sense to burn a symbol you share with the people you hate. This is just their silent screams of self hatred. Not loud enough to drown out the “everything besides white people” hatred, but still somehow present. I guess they can’t even like themselves. Too busy hating.

    Gotta get that hate-love ratio under control.


  • “Nobody” uses memory marketed as GiB maybe. But it IS sized in GiB. And why are you distinguishing between units here in this context anyway? What does “use” even mean here? Are you talking what people actually say, or physically use? Because they physically use all of these terms everyday.

    People may not say the correct terms in everyday speech, but even today, regular, non computer people kinda think any word ending in some version of “byte” is more like a magic spell used to invoke the meaning they’re intending.

    People only use any of the “iB” words/abbreviations for conversations between computer enthusiasts. In general, they’re still just now learning the difference between a bye and gigabyte. They know some sound bigger than others, but that’s about all they know typically.

    I’m not even sure when these words started tbh. I knew the difference between what they meant in different contexts, but I had literally never heard of any of the iBs until about 4 years ago or so, even being a nerd who used the one term in different contexts. It was such a relief to come across a word that meant what I was trying to say.

    Either way, using the "ibi"s (there’s gotta be a catchier word for the collective term in not thinking of) is anything but outdated. Being correct will never be outdated.
