The Danish government sold everybody's health data to the highest bidder. Ignore all the puff pieces about Denmark, no one ever mentions the bad bits.

An article shows that two Jews are paying influencers to not talk about the genocide, and your response is that the article should be taken down? Maybe you could just fuck right out of our media?

The only thing with emulation is that those games designed for CRTs can look really bad on modern panels. So you have to use filters and stuff.

But they are good for retro gaming.

Don't use a fresh burner phone, as that has been known to arouse their suspicion. Break it in a while before you leave, so it looks "used". Also, they apparently demand all passwords to your social media and go through it.

Strange that someone as uncharismatic as Thiel would choose as his puppet someone as uncharismatic as Vance. What is the plan for seducing the public? He could add in DeSantis and you'd have The Three Musketeers of No Rizz.

What I hate most about Epstein is that I feel like I have spent a decade listening to Rogan bros talking about Epstein. A decade of people bravely taking a stand against . . . pedophilia. What next? "Murder is wrong, change my mind"?

If Israel wasn't bulldozing their corpses and barring foreign media from entering Gaza, we might know.
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
Bullshit. 19K Palestinian children have been murdered over the past two years by a state you continue to support.
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
Anyone that still supports Israel is obviously a complete sociopath, so he for sure only cares about Jews, although even that is questionable, since this genocide is disastrous to Jews as well.
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
For every innocent person you murder, I will give less and less of a fuck about your cries of antisemitism.

OTOH, it's useful AF for summarizing scientific papers, doing tech support (I so don't miss trawling forums), and much more.
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
I find it sad in a way that technology is kind of replacing human connection. A lot of stuff we used to use each other for, like ask for directions or restaurant recommendations of specialist knowledge, we had already outsourced to Google etc. Now AI takes that much further.
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah, I figure it's just a massively disruptive technological leap. I am concerned that humans could become entirely redundant. But there is also the possibility of viewing it as a tool you can use to become more productive.

He signed off on her transition. I also have yet to see a pro-trans argument that doesn't basically rely on threats of violence. I want everyone to be happy in their own skin, but I find doing surgery on ppl because of how they feel inside really iffy. Regarding labor laws, that's a fair criticism.
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
I think a lot of people are just mouthing off about it without having tried it or understanding how it works. Then there are the people who do have a tech background, but maybe feel threatened by it, or are just parroting whatever is the current acceptable left -wing opinion on it.
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
He wasn't a Nazi back then. He was voting Democrat and hanging out with the liberal elites. I agree that it is dumb, but less dumb than alienating mega powerful allies because they do stuff you don't like.

I feel like maybe the grift will be more transparent. Maybe fewer people will be fooled by "AI artists" and "prompt engineers" than by someone with paint on their shirt serving them wine in a cup while talking about their "intuitive process" or whatever.

I don't like Elon Musk as a person or politically. But I do find it weird that the Left is completely unwilling to credit him with essentially building a market for EVs. Before Tesla, EVs were a completely niche thing. If you care about climate change, you should be grateful.

Antidepressants increase the risk of suicide. Remove Big Pharma's dick from your mouth and realize that both guns and psychiatric medication kill people.

The psychiatric system kills millions of people worldwide every year. How much has Big Pharma paid you?
Ferventix (@ferventix.bsky.social) reply parent
Stop being so protective of antidepressants. They increase the risk of suicide and can very much blunt emotion. Stop mindlessly regurgitating Big Pharma marketing in the name of politics. Yes, of course guns should be regulated, but psychiatry kills more people.
