Barack Obama, the first Nobel Peace Prize recipient to instate global mass surveillance and bombard 6 countries.

Luckily, I don’t live in the USA. So that doesn’t apply to me.

Don’t care m8.

Andrew Tate is a very capable scammer. He says dumb shit like this such that he’ll be shared, then he’ll bring you into the sales funnel by first of all saying something that sounds very reasonable but aligns with his views in the background. This is just to get you listening and then slowly but surely he’s going to radicalise you into the online manosphere.

Fiat stands for: Fix It Already Tomorrow

I genuinely think that in some third world countries, as part of the middle class, you can have a better life than in the USA.

Nah, libraries are theft. When you borrow a book from a library and you read it, then you have stolen a book from the publisher. Then you give it back and the next person comes along and reads the same book, stealing even more from the publisher.

Nah, real science starts with a conclusion and then works backwards to find evidence for said conclusion. I think it is a more modern approach. Instead of validating reality, we are validating feelings.

IHMO: All science should be freely accessible, free as in freedom and price.

The more eyes can actually see something and find flaws, the better. There is no such thing as institutional credibility. Everyone makes mistakes and it takes everyone to find them, even more so the more complex something is. Leech publishers are not only problematic because they prohibit access, but also because they make real science considerably harder.

Speech note. Support a whole lot of models and you can even do some voice cloning.

“Starting noFap in 1/2 months.”

I already sense some strong dedication here. I once knew a bloke who also did noFap. After one month he woke up in the middle of the night, his penis glowing red and aching so much that he woke him up. He barely touched his penis and then proceeded to create the biggest mess he’d ever seen on the bathroom floor. Ever since then he thought that this can’t be healthy and stopped.

Oops. :P

I mean Threads, the product from Facebook meta. What do you mean?

Block threads. It will destroy the community. “Embrace, extend, exterminate” in action.

Do you guys sometimes also get the weird feeling of: “this is my body, this is planet earth, this is my flat and I live here.” Sometimes that happens. And when that happens, I usually think about things like how the universe came to be the big bang, the laws of physics fighting each other until settling on a seady state. Then the Earth is created, millions of years of evolution go by and here you are, sitting on the toilet. The entire chain of thought only lasts for about five seconds and then you’re again stuck with the feeling of “I am back here on planet Earth”. Do you guys also get that sometimes?

When you need to write a thesis for that juicy title but science is hard:

Can you elaborate om how you were “dumb in many ways” in your 20s?

For that goal, really stick by the FSF recommendations, for that, they are perfect as they have strict requirements.

But I think calling other GNU/Linux distros black box only because some drivers are proprietary is a bit too far, some people just prefer a “minimum damage” approach and that’s a compromise everyone needs to decide for themselves. If I were living in China or Iran, however, then I would exclusively run distros like that as well.
