That sounds insanely impressive, but here I am, happy with my old IPS displays. 😋I grew up with old tube TV's and tube monitors, so any decent IPS panel still looks amazing to me.

True, but they've also been told that these are lies. Their lack of morals decide who they believe.

If a person is a willful sociopath, that person is a sociopath.

No, to detect obviously sociopathic behavior is a trait normal people have. Because our morals are partially either inherited or learned because we are social beings. So we instinctively have a sense of importance in protecting each other, especially wife children and the society we are part of.This is NOT tied to high IQ, but normal social intelligence, if you are NOT a sociopath or something similar, and that trait also exist among apes.So to not detect an obvious sociopath exhibiting sociopathic behavior routinely, a person literally has to be a sociopath or worse, because it requires to not have empathy, and to not have any moral standards, or general regard for the community or society we live in.

In USA however, people are strongly indoctrinated to disregard moral standards, so maybe I should have written you either need to be a sociopath or American.Because in USA freedom is indoctrinated to be the highest value of all, and sociopathy is an expression of ultimate freedom. Sociopaths don't care about norms or rules or to hurt other people. In fact they are sadistic, because sadism give them a feeling of power. But because it's an expression of freedom, sociopathy is seen as a virtue among many Americans. Lack of moral standards and limitations, also enable a person to make money at great cost to other people, for instance workers earning a non livable wage. And money is seen as the highest achievement possible in USA, and since a lot of rich people are sociopaths or worse, that is seen as positive trait, that will allow you to achieve the most important goal in USA, which is to be rich.Failing to see that in Trump, can only happen because a person doesn't comprehend the problems of his behavior emotionally despite maybe understanding them intellectually.If you are a stupid sociopath, you will of course not comprehend the problems intellectually either.

So I meant my post quite literally, but with the possibility that it may be that Americans are brainwashed, to ignore the problem of antisocial behavior caused by what is technically called Dyssocial personality disorder, which I call sociopathy here, because it's close enough, and people know what it means.Psychopath, Sociopath, or worst of all malignant narcissist which Trump is are all forms of dyssocial personality disorder.

I'm starting to think Republicans in general simply don't care about innocent people.And I bet the administration and ICE think they are doing a stellar job.It's like Nazi's and the Gestapo. They wouldn't even care if these people were sent to the gas chambers.

do you see linux ever having 10 - 20 % market share in desktop space?

Jump

Buffalox @lemmy.world 1d ago

Yes I do, it seems to me Linux is beginning to grow a bit faster than it used to.Desktop use is of course declining, so it will be a larger share of a smaller market.But enthusiasts have seen Linux as the better options for decades now, and gamers are coming over too, and use cases that require optimal security, and even some workstation tasks are done better on Linux because Linux has a superior kernel for multi threading.

But it will take some time, probably at least 10 years.

I hope Trump suffers before he dies.It's a horrible thing to think that way, and I didn't use to do that for anybody 9 years ago.But Trump is so horrible, and has caused so much pain, that he deserves Biblical hell.Trump is beyond evil, you can be 100 times better than Trump and still be evil. Trump is on the level of Hitler and Stalin.In history we very rarely see leaders act this evil, even when they are evil. Netanyahu is his equal, and is also expressing sadistic tendencies and complete immorality in his polices.

But what is worse, is that those two are elected in democratic countries. Meaning that they are not the real problem, but "just" symptoms of sick societies.Unfortunately USA has a long line of politicians in the republican party to carry on with what Trump is doing, that are equally without conscience. Maybe they are more intelligent, and maybe that will make them even more dangerous, or maybe it will make them hold back a bit, because they know being evil can make you unpopular.

Yes Iran was a problem, but they were not thee problem. On a global scale that is Trump, Putin and Netanyahu. Or rather USA, Russia and Israel. Because the problem is not only in the top.

With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake?

Jump

Buffalox @lemmy.world 2d ago

Weird thing to say after spending so much time and effort telling me how doing what I like is wrong and unpopular,

I have no idea what your problem is? I never claimed in any way it is wrong, I also showed that it used to be way more popular than it is today.I just state the reasons I think it kind of fell out of fashion.

but thanks for the permission, I guess

It is not a permission, that wouldn't make any sense whatsoever. On the contrary it's an acknowledgement of you not just following the mainstream but doing what you like.

I have no idea why you would be butthurt about any of this?

I suppose you mean "minus" instead of minutes.I suspected something of that sort. Back then using teaspoons was considered somewhat casual.And now you find the old ways kind of neat. Yes the old cake fork has a slight advantage in that it can be used as a fork, and it typically has an edge to "cut" if it's a proper one. But in reality those "advantages" don't really matter, at least not for most people.A cake can be cut with a teaspoon just as well, and for most cakes the fork function doesn't really work, and in my experience the fork is used as a spoon anyway.

But hey, have fun. Do what you like. 😀

Trump Warns NATO of “Very Bad Future” if Allies Don't Help in Iran War

Jump

Buffalox @lemmy.world 2d ago

“NATO faces a ‘very bad’ future if allies do not help,”

That already happened when you threatened Canada and Greenland. NATO is no-longer top priority, cooperation around USA is.Example of that is the EU SAFE program, where also countries outside EU are participating like Norway Canada and Japan.https://defence-industry-space.ec.europa.eu/eu-defence-industry/safe-security-action-europe_en

Another example from just this weekend, is the Nordic counsel, that had a meeting on arctic interests, with Canada, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Iceland participating. Where all agreed on strategies for the defense of the Arctic region, and it was stressed that all supported the defense of Greenland.Another forum where USA is absent, despite also having arctic interests. But are unwelcome because of the threats against Greenland and Canada.

So the very bad future is already here, and NATO countries are preparing to be able to defend themselves without USA.And this very bad future, is ONLY because of USA. USA has torn up hundreds of agreements with allies, and threatened with invasion, and is waging a trade war, and constantly threatening all sorts of bad things that will happen if we don't do as USA says.This is just another example, USA wants to force former allies into their illegal war against Iran. And is threatening consequences for not helping USA out of the mess they created.

What a sad story, and what is also sad is how Americans keep accepting that USA has become the exact thing they used to fight against!

I know that there are protests, but still this is allowed to continue to happen, and it is ONLY possible because the people allow it!So although there are good Americans that are against it, the vast majority don't care enough to actually prevent it.

Buffalox @lemmy.world 2d ago

A small fork is generally considered the "correct" cutlery for cake in Denmark.Obviously a teaspoon serves the purpose just as well, and those are standard to have.And we are not a pretentious people, so many don't even have the forks. Since they are pretty useless for anything else. So the small forks are basically superfluous.

Seems to me their only purpose is etiquette, and most Danes don't really appreciate that when it has no purpose than the etiquette itself.
