  • Not the one being smug. That's you. I am not the one virtue signally. Literally what I pointed out you were doing. I'm not going to tell you to stop or not do it, because you do you. My thing is mocking it anytime I see it. In case it's not clear, I'm not claoming this makes me the better person.

  • Thank you for asking so nicely and with such curtesy and humility after graciously answer my questions.

    I actively encourage and warn others to not use these platforms. I also pirate all their shit and share it with those around me who struggle to shake their addiction to the content.

  • The lesson is, have nukes.

  • You just assumed I use those platforms which makes you the fool here.

    You not supporting evil doesn't stop evil. To try for another approach here since you seem rather dense, evil prevails when good men do nothing.

    I'm sure you'll just attack that too becuase what's important here to you is your feelings. Doing something was never going to be an option for you

  • But in that link:

    it is unknown whether Nobel Prize winners are more prone to this tendency than other individuals.

    Later there is Freedman quote about how he has been asked about topics he has no expertise in because he has Nobel. But that makes it an issue for people who are elevating a Nobel prize winners opinions of those topics. It's seems unreasonable to expect Nobel prize winners to self censor in an effort to avoid this.

  • The victims becoming the victimizers is a trope Israel leaned into full throttle.

  • Citation needed.

    Everything I've read indicates well educated people, specifically those with high analytical a abilities are less susceptible.

    Education isn't immunity. And not everyone who claims they are educated as well educated, but people aren't earning nobels after barely passing some certification program.

  • Moral superiority. It's seems to be a strong theme around here. Why worry about others when we're all so much better then them.

  • The issue here isn't your about your conscious. The majority of people do use these and those people are being influenced.

    Your comment has a sort of fuck you I got mine vibe to it.

  • it's because every device connected to a cell halves the bandwidth available to each device, and after something like 30-40 devices the cell is full.

    I don't know where you're getting this from. There not how cells have worked since at least 3g, sort of sounds like how consumer grade WiFi hardware operates.

    Towers are designed with sectors that are directional and each can support thousands of devices but those can't handle 10k people at a stadium.

    If you had bothered to read the article youd have read they are talking about how stadiums are now using distributed antenna systems (DAS), which is basically hundreds of antennas spread over the venue and fed directly into fiber. Each one is designed to handle a small section. The carriers do need to hook into the endpoint here so this isn't something that can be setup on a whim.

    I don't see it mentioned but there are also mobile units, cellular on wheels (COWS) are common one and they really easy to spot if know to look for them. Basically a cell tower on trailer that can use microwave for the back haul for when on site fiber isn't available.

    If you end up at a venue and can't get service it's because the venue is too cheap to use any of these existing options. They could also be using some outdated antennas, LTE can't handle as many connections as the new 5G stuff.

  • Who is making the claim otherwise? The term tossed around is socialist and more ignorantly communists.

  • Nah, need to go straight to 9, 3x3 matrix. It's acceptable to pause at 6 if you are budget conscious.

  • Yep. Us fighting amongst ourselves is only to their benefit.

    It's a game I avoid playing so whole I may mock those who try but endeavor to never engage with anyone that does it. Best I can hope for is to get someone to self evaluate.

  • Yes. It's all bad. The solution is to get rid of these political stooges. Dealing with capitalists is a different topic. There is some cross over with the poltical stoogery but that's all there is.

  • Apple is doing this instead of requiring app developers to implement and maintain their own system, which is what Android is doing.

    The question comes down to who trust more, any random app developer or a single entity.

    For example this means meta doesn't have to verify their iOS users because iOS already has.

    I'm sure most people in this thread are coming at this all from a morally superior position about how they don't use meta but they also don't use iOS devices so this is another bit of outrage.

    No one here is actually anything besides get upset about something that doesn't effect them. The internet has become a silly place.

  • This is such a weird twisted way to blame America for Nazis. They looked at how America maintained a system of racism and discrimination in its legal system.

    The isn't fascism, that stuff started in Italy.

    It's really hard to take leftists as anything but extremists when you all use the same historical revisionism that every extremist group uses to create their in group.

    Replacing one dogmatic system with a different dogmatic system is a hard sell.

  • It quite literally is. They've convinced you they are too powerful. You've already lost.

  • Hanging from the wall in chains isn't opposition.

  • This is part of our mythology, but it's just that, myth. The reality is most of what we experience today started in the late 60's into then 70's and then was co-opt by the right wing ideology in rhe 80's because it aligns with their deregulation goals.

    Essentially, boomers started it and then the Republican's twisted it into something else.
