Makes sense, people use the alphabet every day. Don’t understand why more people don’t just pirate letters though.
If they don’t want honest people considering it, maybe they shouldn’t raise the price by 80% in a single price change.
I paid for YouTube premium when it was first available. They guaranteed the price would never change as I was a first adopter. Then they did. Then they did it again. And then again.
Google can fuck off. They have all the money in the world and they need to extort the people who helped grow their business.
I use ProtonVPN. They don’t use IPv6, so neither do I.
Thanks! I’m cured!
I think Peterson had a YouTube audience before he got fired, but his lectures then were mostly mundane ramblings about philosophy and psychology.
I think it’s fine to call people out on their shit, but too many people see themselves as the arbitors of justice, with no room for rehabilitation or recourse.
The dumbest thing about the Dave Chapelle protests outside Netflix was the entitlement. They wanted to keep their subscriptions while demanding Dave gets kicked off.
They had it backwards. The correct course of action is to stop supporting Netflix and encourage others to do so.
For the consumer to demand that the publisher punishes the performer, so the consumer can continue to utilise the platform is just so spineless.
It’s like protesting nestle. “Stop poisoning baby formula in third world countries, so I don’t feel morally bankrupt from buying your bottled water”
Jordan Peterson would still be confined to influencing a small group of uni students if there weren’t protests to remove him from his tenured position at the university he was teaching at. (Regarding the Canadian trans bill)
The protestors who got him fired made him into a global figure.
People who use racial slurs are assholes for sure. The point I was getting at is that the left keeps thinking they can break these twats, but it reliably backfires.
Another example: Dave Chapelle.
If people just ignored him then he wouldn’t have milked multiple standup specials for the one subject.
Goddamn, I hate elderly law makers.
They don’t have a clue how the internet works.
Imagine if everyone had a perfect 3d printer.
These lawmakers are talking about how we need to issue auditors to inspect the newly fabricated nuclear facilities to make sure nobody is trading nukes.
If anyone is still in the facility after announcing it, the people there won’t be hiding nukes.
Do they know I can just download a new nuclear factory right? This time with underaged hookers and methamphetamine. What are they going to do about it, when they can’t even find it.
People trading CSAM are cockroaches who mutate after each pesticide round. They will always be one step ahead of you, because while you debate publiclly for months on end, they are motivated by two fully loaded testicles and all the time in the world.
Episode is cracked.
It’s basically Uncut Gems, toddler edition.
Want to teach your kids what anxiety is? Here’s half an hour or Bluey in which all the characters are on the verge of a mental breakdown.
The problem with all of them is that they lack nuance.
Sure, they can be used as incindiary and provocative statements to initiate conversation or oust someone, but more often than not, the words are not crossing the aisle.
When the left says “defund the police” the right hears “completely strip the police of all money” (I have actually seen leftists make the claim that this is not hyperbole).
When the left says “trans women are women” we mean “the definition of woman has changed from biological to cultural” but what the right hears is “accept our assertion that trans women are biological women or be branded a transphobe”.
When the left says “black people cannot be racist” they mean “racism is mired in oppression. It’s a waste of time trying to address biases towards white people because they aren’t in a position to be opresssed” - but the right hears “black people are hypocrites”.
None of this shit does any good to making the world better. It doesn’t bridge a divide, it widens it.
On a similar note, did you hear the news about that “tik tok trad wife” who said the n-word? People found her employer and got her fired.
Good job dickheads, now she’s doing the rounds on Fox News, Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson etc.
Jordan Peterson, same deal. Brett Weinstein, same deal.
The left need to stop making these people.
If you don’t care about the underside of your desk, buy a box of cable clamps and hammer those fuckers in a line along the back edge.
Then buy a bunch of tiny zipties and zip them to the clips. Leave enough room so if you need to, you can get a pair of scissors in and cut the ziptie off.
I don’t think you can call an independent novel/movie part of a ‘franchise’.
“Defund the police”
“Black people cannot be racist”
“Trans women are women”
I’m sure we’re actually all on the same page, with the exception of how valuable we consider the optics of these slogans.
I see right wingers present these slogans as evidence of our mental deficiencies.
They are either convinced we are stupid, or are trying to convince others we are stupid. We have given them ammo.
To this point, people have claimed they’ll have ammo regardless, but I’m not so sure. People detransition from the (alt)right every day.
The more sensible we appear, the easier it is for them to consider whether they were justified in what they believed in the first place.
Keep it up man, you’ve obviously got more energy than most of us who think that slogan is shit.
ACAB is one of the things which give ammo to the conservatives on a silver platter. It makes us look stupid.
There are occasional stories about cops who risk their lives to save people. But, fuck them I suppose, because of that one time they heard a story about their colleague they knew was shady, shooting someone for smoking weed and they didn’t organise everyone else in their department to protest outside the station until they were fired.
No room for nuance with these people.
Even this is a stretch to be honest. Their games aren’t easy to mod. Minor updates break shit. You need to consider mod load order. You need to “clean” the base files before loading in any big mods.
Their games are made of fucking speghetti code and they don’t care. They could fix it, but they don’t. They could clean their own base game files so this isn’t necessary, but they would rather force people into the ecosystems of Creation Club.
This is one point I contend with: Fallout 76 didn’t become good with patches. I’m not unconvinced that there’s a conspiracy for Bethesda to create the impression online that the game became good with updates.
That’s just me though.
Thank you…
Smegger…
How pungently insightful.
YOU BUFFOON PARENT!!!
Do you realise that you’ve made a claim about deepfake nudes of your daughter… And then brought her into the spotlight?!
Do you want more deepfakes of your daughter? Because I can practically guarantee someone has done that just for shits and giggles.
