You’ve clearly already detached yourself from reality. I shall not join you for afternoon heads-in-sand. Good day, sire.

In what way is citing the univac prediction “populistic”?

Also, my comments are not needlessly aggressive. My aggression towards those in power who have intentionally allowed us to get to this point, is warranted. If you are going to pretend that it wasn’t intentional on their part, you deserve that ire too. This pretense, that this is simply how slow things move, is poisonous, as it allows those who have harmed us all to continue to do so. Bygones can’t be bygones while the wolves still run the chicken coop.

Thank you for the break down. I really appreciate the context. I’ll add mine from this end.

Oreo, though also a cookie full of hydrolized nut-fat and sugar, can be a pejorative term for a black skinned person who does the bidding of white supremacy. This term is usually reserved for those who do it in the less directly violent ways. So think, a black man who only hires white people because that’s what his boss demands, or because he himself is racist towards his own people.

He would be “black on the outside but white on the inside”. Which is why an Americanized pronunciation of “Orebro” makes me think of the techbro fascists, “Libertarian on the outside but Nazi on the inside”, who also pretended to be one of the working classes.

I enjoyed this cultural exchange. I think cent-bridge adds more depth to the tongue in cheek usage of Orebro, as tech bros do indeed pretend to build infrastructure, but the infrastructure is cheap and does not serve people well. It is merely a facade to fleece dollars from us. Fucking orebros.

An Orebro sounds like someone who is libertarian on the outside and a Nazi on the inside.

1950-2020 “overnight”? And to your first point, there is nothing wrong with the rail infrastructure left over from before the 1950s in this heat. The trains aren’t suddenly having trouble because the spacing between rails is set to an old standard.

You and I are being left to die and our support structures were designed cheaply with no regard for our survival because the owners don’t care about us.

The univac 1 predicted this, specifically this, happening in this decade. This was all foreseen. It was just ignored.

No no, you don’t understand, it just got this bad. This is unprecedented. Unprecedented! My stars! Heavens to Betsy! Golly gee willikers!

Yes, but if you are serious about it, you do what you can as you can. He’s fighting it in CA and he’d fight it in DC too. If he were elected he’d suddenly push it a little further away. “I’ll do it at my next term. I need to set up this framework first.” Or something, and then there would always be more “work to be done beforehand” and he would never do it.

The reason we have trump, is the racist magats, but the reason we couldn’t fight them properly and keep them out, is newsom politicians and his buddies.

People have been paying companies to walk around advertising for them for 4 decades now. 80% of the population walks around with a pesant’s undershirt, that has the logo of a multinational corporation on it. Or one of some other, smaller business entity. They will have paid 3-6 hours of minimum wage work for this privilege.

It also murders unrepentant, genocidal, pieces of shit. Which, I feel, is even better.

Hey! Look at you! Brain developed so you can notice subtle nuances! So big! So big!👋🙏👋

Now that you’re ready, you go over there and wach Mamdan do a socialism! So big! So big!👋✊✊👋

Miss Rayray has to keep doing songs for the babies!👋👼👼👋

Not physically destroy, you’re right, but they are buying to shelve until obsolescence. Which is as good as destroyed.

They are also starved for compute. Because they cannot get data centers physically built-out fast enough.

50 years for being in the group chat that discussed attending the protest, but not actually attending. Note, there was no discussion of shooting a cop in these group chats. The two people I’m talking about are trans women though.

So I guess 50 years of rape in a male prison, for being in the chat while trans.

It’s not sexist to think it looks like a car for people who want a cute, little compact car that lets everyone know they have scratch. That’s just what it looks like.

“Missy mcmansion” could easily be a young man who wants those things in a car. He will likely embrace the term because he doesn’t think women and their associated descriptors are inherently “less than”. This looks looks like a car for a cute purse, a blowout, and a manicure.

I didn’t use “missy” to denigrate. I used it as marker for lifestyle choices regardless of sex or gender. You certainly picked up on my dripping distaste, but it’s because I think the car looks silly, just like the SUV, and neither fit my lifestyle choices. When I think the big matcho SUV is dumb, am I being sexist?

If it makes you feel any better, I always loved the Miata, because it looks like she’s got skin under her nails, cute but not to be played with lightly, and that fits my aesthetic just fine.

Edit: lol, you’re mad because I said “bottom energy” and you thought “woman energy” and had to put your misogynistic thoughts on me to make yourself feel better after I explained it 😝

The AI companies are also buying tons of it and just locking it away. They can’t use it, they are keeping competitors from using it. If competition with you will cost me $20 billion in revenue, but buying $15 billion worth of RAM stops you from being able to compete, buying the RAM just to destroy it is a no brainer.

Yeah, a tesla just ran into a whole ass house last week and murdered the person inside, and the regulatory agencies and police were all “haha boys will be boys”. I will never get into any “fully autonomous” vehicle while the state retains a single molecule of what we have now.

They’re the cars that crash into houses but no one is liable for the murder. It’s a “self-driving” car with full surveillance capabilities inside and out for the state, but without the ability for the people inside to stop them by any means. You’d be forced to watch it slowly run over a child or bring you to the police station, without any personal autonomy to stop either. An “Autonomous Vehicle”

Slapping their name on a dumpy SUV was a a stupid cash grab too. For me, the difference is that I expected it to be a dumpy cash grab to separate mcmansioners from their poolhouse money.

If Ferrari said “we’re going to release a little electric, suburban grocery-getter”, my response would have been “well that looks about right”. Just like with the SUV.

When I hear Ferrari is releasing their “first electric car” my mind immediately starts thinking about what kind of little mean monster they could release with all that torque. I am disappointed when I see what looks like another dumpy cash grab, but this one is for missy mcmansion to take to her first day of college.

But then again, I care for speed alone. The scream of an ic engine is neat but to me, secondary. There are probably plenty of gasheads who are just pissy because “electricity is liberal” or something.

I’ll allow it. Count your whole net worth every day you touch your toodles.
