  • Trump faces a revolt from his MAGA base over the Epstein files

  • Uhhhh where are you getting this idea from? The left is mostly against the genocide and crimes against humanity that Israel is commiting. A lot of Jews are against Zionism. Antizionism and anti Judaism are two very completely different things and I'm worried you don't understand the difference

  • There's a conspiracy that Jews basically hold most of the power in the world and have done so for a long time which is the perfect Boogeyman because Jews are ethnically diverse and ambiguous, indiscernible from a typical "white person"... It's not about hate, hate has to be targeted. It's about fear. Fear is the real center, the emotion that justifies hatred.

  • Not a Republican but a lot of notable right wing figureheads are speaking up about it publicly. People with actual power are making noise. Turning point USA which is basically the nonprofit PAC that the runs their local and national media circus has spoken against it. I think they're all realizing the idea is bigger than the leadership. They might be ready to cut ties

  • My immediate reaction is that the owner probably took the picture himself trying to go viral and immediately took it down. Nothing gets solved in this country anymore unless there's a dollar to be made and looking like a good person is somehow more important than being a good person. Why would the person even read it on the front door? Why not discretely package some food and put it next to the dumpster with a note stuck to it? Nothing about this makes sense when you analyze it. The few real heroes of this country are unsung, the rest is just virtue signaling.

  • It used to be a way bigger deal when computers were very memory scarce, if you needed to say, represent 1024 values, that means you'd use 10 bits or 2 bytes, the remaining 6 bits could be used to store other related information like flags but more often than not it would be waste (unused values that still have to be represented as 0s)

    These numbers are pretty arbitrary nowadays but they still show up a lot in computing. They didn't choose 256 so they could represent it in a byte, the real reason is probably that groups larger than 256 can't realistically be managed by users.

    That's my 2¢ anyways.

  • Google fucked a whole generation with Chromebooks, and now they're fucking the next generation with AI

    Jump

  • That's awesome, I love hearing stories like this. I was lucky to have access to a PC since I was about 8 years old and computer literacy is probably the most useful skill I have. Nothing teaches PC literacy better than pirating software with complex readmes lol or having to fix the family computer because you infected it with a virus. Had me stressing, looking at the task manager and searching for the origins of every .exe to find the culprit

  • I probably wouldn't let my son install a GPU until he's a bit older just because of the cost lol but it is simple enough for a teenager to do, I think.

  • The real take is to get kids into PC gaming from a young age. Kids are super patient with each other and now my kid is doing things like installing mods for games that he plays. It's also massively improved his reading which is mostly how I learned English myself.

  • what are you saving up for

  • At a certain point, money is not about wealth or what you can buy with it but rather about power. And in life's twists, those who amass a decent amount of wealth and power come to believe they are "chosen" because of how society treats them. The poors worship the rich. if we were living in a sane society, these amounts of wealth would be looked at disgustingly by society. Shit is beyond fucked and I don't think anything can unfuck modern society.

    if these people were any kind of Christian they would be worried about the end of their mortal lives. Instead they are speedrunning everything Christ taught us NOT to be.

  • What are you doing for the cause lol I love how it's so easy to talk big on the Internet. Are you burning down courthouses and shooting cops?

    Have you noticed that the courts are ruling against Trump's fascist policies? Do you know what will happen if Trump continues to disobey lawful orders? It becomes lawful to disobey those orders.

    I know it's fun to be a doomerist online but we're not at boiling point yet. It's getting hot and people are growing more sympathetic towards minorities and understanding that if there is no due process then anyone can be targeted, journalist, opponents, etc. until that happens at large most people are unbothered.

  • While this sounds nice police largely have no fear of consequence because qualified immunity and even threatening to do harm against a cop carries big consequences. The truth is that lawmakers need to step up and make it clear what they're doing is illegal, that way refusing an unlawful command or protecting yourself can be easily defended in court. Shooting a cop is only going to add fuel to the fire.

  • I've done much worse for a dollar. The industry feels shit because of stupid AI hype coupled with tight budgets. It'll pass. Though if I could do something else for a similar amount of money I probably would

  • Well, I can kind of relate. I'm 10 years into network engineering and about 2-3 years into SDN/data center automation. It used to be exciting at first but now it's gotten kind of boring.

    Don't underestimate the power of your half ass, your half ass is probably many people's whole ass.

    Your work can be fulfilling and it's exciting when it is but it'll never satisfy your need for human connection. I'm in a role where I'm compensated adequately but I'm very unfulfilled. It's not toxic but I'm very disconnected. I'm trying to upskill at the moment and get my CCNP DEVCOR so I can look for a more cushy role with probably less pay

  • I agree on the "weak" part, being able to empathize with orders requires that you be able to admit your own faults, but I think empathy is actually a high-intellect ability. It's deeper than being just uninformed.
