Or that ages of “wives tales” are actually true and wealth really does something to our psyche. It’s true to say that immoral people get into these positions and make the rules, but I think it’s overly simplistic to believe that is the entire reason.

The more terrifying analysis is that people do change and not always for the better. The system is stupidly good at corrupting people and power/wealth do something to our monkey brains that is insanely antisocial. People unfortunately absolutely do become worse in the system, and it is designed that way.

The fact that Hungary is a DEEPLY right wing country and unfortunately very trad in its ideology of the body and consumption.

Peak show

You literally said Democratic Socialism and linked a quote contrasting Socialism (generally) to Social Democracy, not Democratic Socialism.

What the fuck are you on about??? Where did they defend billionaires?

The file/nail pick part of a nail clipper. They opened it up, twisted the file out, snapped it off, and gave me back the nail clippers.

I fit all of that on a 1TB HDD

Including a bunch of Ted Talk videos with good video and audio.

Glad more people are seeing this. Also the sheer amount of disinformation and FUD he spreads to make people feel hopeless and terrified.

He’s a loser and grifter fs

Download a program called Kiwix. From there you can install offline versions of Ted Talk, Stack Exchange, Wikis, tons of guides and forums, project Gutenberg, and SOO much more.

It can then be used as a server from any device (you literally just push a button) which allows you to access your media over your LAN.

The UI is pretty shit but it’s a great program.

Of course it doesn’t have everything. Like I also torrented the Anarchist Library (ironically not offered on their site as a single file, but I found it from a reputable source) and I’ve downloaded some other odd YouTube playlists here and there to keep (IT and homelab tutorials, music mixes, etc).

I adore Andrewism

There probably was at the beginning of the event but it gets stupidly hot in rooms with that many people, even with ac blasting.

This doesn’t look like International Mr. Leather, which is the event I’m familiar with, but it gets hot as balls in the congress hotel for that time. People come in with a lot of stuff and then take it off as it gets hot, in both meanings of the word.

You guys are opening your bananas?

That’s capitalism. The greatest irony is that free market has been associated with capitalism. I’m personally not a huge free market fan anyways, as I think it carries it’s own problems, but I find it funny that libs and cons think of free market as a capitalist society.

We have had 500 years of capitalism now and despite every single “please bro, just one more free market expefiment bro, it’ll work this time”, it always consolidates, cheats, corrupts and blackmails. Capitalism innately favors monopolies and manipulation over honest competition and equal ground for ideas.

In my, admittedly imperfect, view I feel like if some society really wanted an actual free market it would a socialist one. Where everyone is actually on equal footing, people have their basic needs met so they aren’t focused on surviving, and people aren’t born with more than others. From there, ideas and items could actually compete. If this hypothetical society kept money and markets, as described so far, and people’s needs were met, then luxuries and unnecessary but enjoyable products could be sold in this situation.

I think the frame will be around $1200. Maybe that’s a complete stretch (ojala que si), but seeing the price of the controller, the machine, and the updated deck prices, I don’t imagine it’ll be that far off.

Forgive any ignorance or arrogance on my part, I’m not a materials scientist at all, but wouldn’t the plastic caps on plastic bottles also have the same deleterious effect?

I didn’t read anything in there about them exploring the source of the plastic particulates in plastic bottles. Whether from the bottle or from the cap too.

Many queer people, including couples. Some do of course, but the majority do not.

Yeah also when has capitalism ever allowed the poors to benefit from the failures of the rich? Companies have been destroying inventory and throwing out food, in such abundance it makes me sick, for decades. Of course this isn’t a blanket statement, after the dot com pop you could buy multi thousand dollar office chairs for a few hundred, as well as good desks.

But overall, corporations love destroying shit instead of letting the commoners get even a little morsel of it.

Look into Bonsai Ternary models. They’re “1.5” bit models that have to be trained that way (so no taking a full model and quantizing it down) but they are so efficient and they can run on CPU only, though it’s a bit alpha at the moment. Really cool company and projects.

You have to create a specific environment for them though, using Bonsai’s GGUF version which enables them to run properly. So unfortunately, no use in LM Studio yet.

Depending on where you live, bamboo bristled tooth brushes should be somewhat easy to find. I definitely prefer them over plastic bristles.
