The west media likes to use CCP instead of CPC?
Yeah that’s basically it, that’s why western pro China communists sometimes insist on using the more proper translation (CPC), but also I’ve seen some Chinese comrades say they don’t really care about the distinction.
Yeah ok but most households probably don’t absolutely need an AC, there’s definitely people that would be put at risk if they didn’t have one but on average in the west I don’t think it’s the case.
Is Zohran good? It’s a good signal that the dems are against him but also I’ve seen him mince his words and weasel out of some questions similar to what AOC and Bernie do usually, so far it seems to me like he’ll be New York AOC.
Jesus that image is hideous, why the fuck would anybody wear that?
Oh yeah the repairability/upgradability of Macbooks is absolutely horrendous but at least you can be pretty sure it’s gonna last you a while unless you have an accident with it.
Eh, kind of but I even found Thinkpads to be lacking there, they start showing wear and tear symptoms after around a year tops.
Unfortunately, literally the only company that produces laptops with some actual durability and build quality is Apple. I would really like to be proven wrong here but so far I haven’t.
Poor guys, they looked so cute.
Same thing almost happened with the Kakapo, a flightless parrot that has no natural predators and was very docile and friendly.
Why is the Egyptian government so trash on the issue?
Of course, there’s still a very good chance that anyone of the hundreds of supplements that he’s taking is actually shortening his life.
Speaking of which: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MizVGCELs9Q
Lmao dude is gonna kill himself with one of his wacky supplements and routines one of these days.
Eh idk maybe people around me are built different or something but just assuming he’s an average dude I’d say he’s like early 40s, he doesn’t look amazingly young for his actual age but still better than average. I agree that with the amount of crazy shit he’s doing to his body you’d expect him to look 25 lmao.
I mean ngl the dude looks good for his age, he’s 47 now and on average people look worse at that age.
That said what he’s doing is absolutely deranged and he’s completely lost in the sauce, I’ve seen a video clip where he explains that ackshly he’s doing this to advance humanity and pave the way to a bright new future or something, typical techbro messiah complex bullshit. His mormon upbringing probably didn’t help either.
Marginally, if anything. Quality electronics are nowadays available for cheap, it’s not the 90s anymore.
Audiophiles need to bite the bullet and renovate a room to be more acoustic friendly and move all their audiophile shit to that room for the optimal listening experience.
And also you’ll be getting the same listening experience with like $500 gear lmao.
I can hear the noise coming from my headphones when i plug them to my motherboard or to my screen.
Must be a really shit board, I haven’t heard any noise from a default sound card on a motherboard for more than a decade now.
Are they worth it? Yes, if you have money for burning.
Ain’t no way it’s worth it, audiophile gear is 99% placebo. It’s kinda like wine, when you’re past a certain price point (that’s not actually that large compared to the really expensive stuff) it’s all the same.
I should probably reign in this behaviour, even jokingly fedjacketing people can still lead to a culture of suspicion, and there are other ways to call someone out if I disagree with them than calling them a fed.
Good call. The amount of fedjacketing I see in online leftist spaces is really messed up IMO, gives off deranged conspiracy theorist vibes and it also shows a lot of unwarranted self importance, the feds most likely aren’t making up elaborate personas to rile up terminally online visitors of very niche online communities.
sitting around in your house all day jerking off is self-evidently bad, as is playing slot machines all day, as is eating processed foods all day from your magic fridge.
I think we’re basically in agreement then. I was at no point trying to defend the porn industry as it exists today, sorry if it came off that way.
Yes, commodifying sex is bad because commodifying anything is bad. When porn ceases to be a commodity it will become less harmful, much like anything else.
I’m really not sure what point you’re making here, do you think there wouldn’t be porn sites that people would use as masturbation tools in a communist society? Why is “instant gratification” inherently a bad thing? When you open your fridge to have a snack you’re “instantly gratifying” because you’re not involving yourself in the entire process of making food.
Yeah that’s true, I guess it’s considered kind of a vice that’s normalized, kinda like smoking.
Maybe it was the cheapest option to host all that? Doesn’t really matter IMO, just download it if you have the storage.
