So you think Grindr can handle Pride all over the world but not Charlie Kirk’s funeral? How do think the internet works?

Is this what you are referring to? TheRealThelmaJohnson is your source? Do you also think everything on the Onion is real?

Republicans are very anti-gay and people who are supposedly our allies trying to paint the republicans as gay is a bit tiring. It’s straight people running the anti gay crusade. It’s not self-loathing, just loathing. Heck, most of the time it’s not even loathing, it’s just a convenient out group to rally around. “Who are we? Well, at least we’re not gay”. But if you think misogyny, transphobia, homophobia all those things are fine as long as it’s directed towards people who voted for the wrong party then I am not going to convince you and you are not going to convince me.

Because it’s a meme! Some journalist on Twitter posting about Grindr at the RNC and people running with it. People logging in when the RNC is in town to see if they can spot a closeted politician. It’s titillating, people sign up for Grindr because they’ve seen Hegseth’s tattoo so “they’d definitely recognise him even if he cropped out his head”. Add the trolls who get a kick out of pretending to be a closeted politician.

And I know it’s a meme because people sincerely believe that “so many people logged in that it crashed Grindr!” Like Grindr has a server in every city and you log into the closest server when you turn on Grindr. Complete nonsense.

There’s also bound to be gay staffers for republican politicians. Washington DC is the gayest place in the US. Let the staffers fuck in peace.

Liberal, call them what you want. Someone claiming not to be homophobic but still uses gay as an insult about a group they dislike. Are there closeted republicans? Sure. All kinds of closeted people. Are they even close to being a majority in republican party? No, it’s mainly goddamn straight people. Fucking own up to it and stop trying to pin the awful actions of straight people on a few hypocritical fuckwits.

Stop using gay as an insult if you truly don’t think there’s anything wrong with being gay. Challenge level impossible.

Oh, I thought it was about p-hacking

Fuck you and your liberal homophobia

Mike Johnson the Tax Evader wants to impregnate teenagers. And prevent pregnant women from getting life saving treatment. I don’t really know how else to read this.

No no, I was joking that it was simple

It’s a trilby

$13.5 billion loss in first half of 2025. Somehow also income of $4 billion - sounds fake. So their compute costs are probably around $34 billion per year?

What? No, we love mathematicians.

Fuck Macdonald’s though

Rude neural network

It’s simple really. Like saving a computer game and then if something doesn’t work out you can go back to a previous save game.

It only really gets tricky when multiple people are continuing on the same save and you want progress from both when you load it. But you can leave that to the most senior person to figure out.

Jesus Christ, just bring a DNA sequencer.

There was a year or so where the lights of electric bikes was both very, very bright and pointed at people’s faces. That was not helpful, safety-wise.

No lights on their bike as far as I can see. 50/50 odds they die.

Maybe because it’s fucking dumb? If it runs PS6 games then it is the PS6, like the Switch is a handheld.

OP needs to be careful - they could outlaw thoughts at any moment now

And yes, Nvidia and OpenAI and anthropic and so on are absolutely overvalued.

There’s a good read about the bubble here:

How Catastrophic Is It If the AI Bubble Bursts? An FAQ. - The Ringer - https://www.theringer.com/2025/11/04/tech/ai-bubble-burst-popping-explained-collapse-or-not-chatgpt

Luckily, data centers and AI companies don’t actually employ that many people so when the bubble pops the government doesn’t actually have to intervene much. If you mortgaged your house to invest in Nvidia then you might want to cash out now.

You should compare revenue to GDP, not market cap. Nvidia revenue for 2025 has been very good so far at about 130 billion USD while the GDP of Canada was about 2.3 trillion USD.

But some of the Nvidia revenue is paid in equity so you need to add uncertainty on the value when figuring out their revenue.
