  • Is there any non-zero possibility Musk was not doing a Hitler Salute?

    Jump

  • He did the Nazi salute twice, intentionally.

    He said "my heart goes out to you" because of plausible deniability. He was giving his followers an argument to deny that he did it intentionally, both to themselves and others.

    He has not directly denied it nor apologized for it.

    European leaders are acknowledging it for what it is. Neo-Nazis are acknowledging it for what it is, and they loved it.

    People who are sincerely on the fence about this, admitted they actually exist, need to wake the fuck up.

  • German translator caught on hot mic complaining about Trump inauguration speech: How much longer 'with this s–t?'

    Jump

  • I know this is a joke, but as someone fluent in two languages, trust me when I tell you that translating anything Trump says effectively is borderline impossible, and that's a huge problem. It plays in his favor because people in non-english speaking parts of the world don't get to fully see how ridiculously incoherent he actually is; they only get the sanitized version of his ramblings.

    Personally, it's been REALLY hard these past few years hearing and seeing the shit coming out of his mouth in its original language and at the same time not being able to at least share my worries with other people in my country without sounding crazy. It's very easy to underestimate the gravity of the situation from the other side of the world if you can't grasp how low the standards have sunk and still believe DT is just an average Republican president, and not living proof that the actual meaning of words has no value anymore.

  • Trump reportedly complaining about Elon in private — and hates ‘President Musk’ joke

    Jump

  • Then simple question, why not use First Gentleman? Kamala Harris' husband was Second Gentleman and would have been first if she had won.

    Going by your logic, that would be offensive to me, as a gay man.

    But this kind of hypersensitivity, especially when applied regardless of context or intent, is one of the main drivers of the reactionary sentiment that is allowing the right to win elections all over the world. It's one of the reasons why the "free speech" argument has worked so well in their favor.

    Currently, the only ones benefitting from this "moral high-ground" stance are fragile little baby egos like Musk and Trump who can rest assured knowing their opposition would never stoop as low as them, while they get to freely spew as much intentionally evil shit as they want.

    A society where no one is ever offended by anyone is a utopia. It's as desirable as it is unattainable. I think the best thing we can do at the moment is focus on fighting back, not fighting against each other.

  • Flexible Display

    Jump

  • I'm not sure what you mean. Flexible OLED displays have been around for a while and foldable devices are just an example of the technology in use, but we've had them in consumer products way before that (phones with curved edge displays, for example). The potential for flexibility has always been intrinsic to OLED displays because they don't need a backlight. The reason our phones don't bend and flex like the "device" in the video isn't because of the display, but because the battery, processors, ram, speakers, ports and all other components are not flexible and won't be for a while. The device in the video does not include those, there is a ribbon cable coming out of the bottom connecting the two screens to the actual hardware.
