  • He’s literally at a fundraiser with a bunch of pro-business fucks giving this mealy-mouthed speech. He literally expanded all the worst parts of the Bush admin which are now being pointed at US citizens like mass surveillance.

    No he didn’t explicitly vote for it himself, but he admitted himself that if he had run in the 80’s he would have been considered a Republican. For fucks sake, “Obamacare” was actually “Romneycare,” can we stop acting like the entire party apparatus as a whole doesn’t deep throat big business? Because it fucking does and it doesn’t matter if he didn’t directly vote for that himself, he’s still part and parcel to the people who make it this fucking bad. That’s literally the people he is giving a speech to here.


  • Because they are the ones who care about shit like environmental regulations and not polluting our cities to make new housing, especially when so much property is being held and unused by an investor class who refuses to release it until they have a profit on the deal. I have lived in two northwest cities in the last 15 years where the downtowns are barren with empty buildings that could be sold, torn down, and built into apartments. But noooo in each city they’d rather clearcut the wooded areas and build there instead all the while whinging about environmental regulations making it costly.

    Whatever the fuck happened to that Eminent Domain shit? Why aren’t we using that for the good of housing people?

    Is there a particular reason you need an nvidia gpu? Like plans to do local LLMs or other projects that really require a nvidia gpu?

    Because I am just so pleased with AMD for gpus in Linux. So simple.

    Not knocking your choice, just trying to understand it. Everyone has valid reasons for why they choose their setups.

    Edit: nevermind I am so confused by the new naming schemes I thought this was an nvidia, others have informed me its an AMD. Nevermind me I am a dingus.




  • Look, don’t destroy my hopes for seeing a revolution from people doing silly walks. Things are awful, gotta have some levity in there.

    Also, more seriously, never underestimate the US governments willingness to embrace a half-baked technology and willingness to embrace false positives as positives.

    See also: Airport x-ray body scanners, polygraphs, “non-lethal” bean bag/rubber plug guns that are totally lethal if you use them “wrong,” and also more recently in the words of ICE Director Tom Homan “they don’t need probable cause to walk up to somebody briefly detain them and question them … based on location, occupation, their physical appearance.”










  • You failed to do the one thing that mattered, Biden, which was replace Garland and make sure that someone actually put Trump’s ass behind bars as well as his enablers like Musk, Bannon, Miller, and so on. (Seriously, how was the stuff in Project 2025 not enough to hit people with fucking conspiracy, racketeering and sedition charges?) Instead you slow walked this shit and it’s literally entirely your own fucking fault that we’re in this mess. Especially your unwillingness to stick with your original promise of being a one-term President and allowing the Democrats to have an actual primary, instead once again snatching actual choice out of the hands of the people and anointing a new candidate instead. How many fucking times has that failed now, dipshit?

    I got zero sympathy for this blithering bitching idiot. Go cry about your legacy more, chucklefuck. We’re facing out of control fascism because you were a pussy and didn’t want to “lOoK PoLiTiCaL.”
