    Forreal

    Terraforming mars is like, a neat idea that maybe we can try as a super long term project for humanity once most of our problems are solved but…

    It’s not a solution. It’s not easy, and definitively not easier than solving our projects down here on earth. It’s like, instead of repairing your leaky roof you go out and plan to build an underwater waterproof habitat dome for yourself



  • Wasn’t Hitler always a kinda incompetent leader?

    If anything that should serve to showcase that you don’t need to be a strong leader to cause massive amounts of damage. Hell, in this day and age you barely need to do shit to cause the end of the world. Just demand the nukes fly. Though hopefully that process would be stopped by people with some self-preservation insinct.

    Or anything else really

    It’s hell to try to understand something someone gave you if they don’t label things properly. It’s like “I can see there is a number here, but what the fuck does the number mean”


  • Yeah, when I watched a synopsis of the story, multiple alarm bells rang in my head midway through watching it. He’s so gullible for how rich he fucking was

    So the twist that was that they were all the same person, didn’t even surprise me, you could see that it was a scam a mile away if you were paying attention

    The scammer was pretty good, though, I will give them that. Too bad the scammer was also pretty dumb about how the handle the money after the fact, and got caught lmao.


  • Yeah, excusing it by saying he’s autistic is ableist by itself. We’re not incapable of understanding dog whistles or concepts, you know?

    Especially when people in the same breath call Elon a genius. You can’t have it both ways. Either he’s clueless and shouldn’t be in a position of power, or he’s actually a nazi… and shouldn’t be in a position of power

    It really is a case of “does not know when to shut the fuck up” lmao

    He seems kinda clueless about things relating to human social stuff, but couldn’t/can’t help himself from talking about it all the same







  • Why should legality matter? What are laws? It’s rules that the government put down for everyone to follow. And what happens if someone controls all aspects of the government?

    Legality is meaningless in the face of fascism, because the fascist government will be making the laws. it’s like asking why it wasn’t illegal to do genocide in nazi Germany. Or asking why it wasn’t enforced by law to hide jews from the nazis to protect them

    Legality is not relevant. Legality is not morality or a foundation for ethics. Legality is just the will of the government, for better or for worse. It is not something that necessarily serves the people’s beat interests


  • I don’t know enough about the subjects to go into details, but I know enough to say that that is reductive. ARM/alternatives are not inherently better, at least not universally. And, especially because of the inertia, I do not expect x86 to be fully replaced on the desktop any time soon. The motivations behind companies such as Apple using ARM likely have more to do with licensing than anything else

    It’s probably more useful to think of x86 and ARM as slightly different tools that are slightly better suited to different tasks. Desktop, server (and possibly high-performance) computing are x86’s specialty, and I do not expect it to be replaced

    All-in-all, from what I know, the practical differences between ARM and x86 are nowhere near large enough to be compared to something like the electric vs internal combustion engine. It’s probably closer to a difference of, say, a typical train and a subway

    But, please read up on this yourself. I am not an expert in hardware, this is just what i casually picked up as a layperson
