All my suspended reddit logins are suddenly active again. I was banned for ‘inciting violence’ by some anti-outdoor cat nazis when I posted a picture of my cat with a rabbit it caught. This was over 3 years ago.
I’m going through removing all my content. F reddit. Scumbags suddenly unbanned my decade of content so they can train AI on it to enrich themselves.
same here. i can pay 120 for cable tv and internet at 250mbps, or 100 for internet that is 50mbps.
but my town is a monopoly. i have zero other internet/cable choices.
When i was in school in the 2000s file sharing basically crippled the campus network until it was banned. A few bad actors were hoarding all the bandwidth and storing copyright violation stuff on school servers.
They go to the lecture and just scream so that that person can’t present. They don’t allow the person to make their case or offer them any respect.
Lots of ‘woke’ people are shitty people. I’ve had way too many experiences in the past few years with ‘woke’ people screaming at me about how I need to read more women authors or I’m a shitty awful human being. Or other equally absurd things, like I’m a bigot if I don’t ask you what your pronoun is. If you have a pronoun preference, how about you tell me? Just like you tell someone how to pronounce your name if it’s non-standard.
I know lots of progressive people, and I am progressive. But I would never say I am ‘woke’. People who self-identify ‘woke’ tend to be mentally ill crazy people in my encounters, and use their politics as an excuse for abusive and hostile behavior just the way right-wing nazi nutbags do.
Hell I even had a transwoman assault me verbally one day while I was just reading a book in a cafe. Comes up to me and demands that I give her my table because I’m a white cis guy and I should give up my ‘privileged’ to her. I told her to f off. My small business has been harassed by ‘woke’ activists who demand we give them money or they will say we are anti-black/lgbt+, etc. That’s not woke, that’s blackmail.
Most ‘woke’ people I meet are basically 20 sometime trust-fund types who need a cause to give her their miserable lives purpose, because god knows they can’t get their shit together and do something positive with their lives. If they did maybe they’d stop being such awful abusive people who threaten and harass others.
It’s the protocols more than anything.
stuff with this speeds existed already, it just wasn’t via USB. it was expensive proprietary protocols and hardware and cables. USB is an open standard design for consumer use, and not for giant corps with datacenters who can pay $2,000 for a single data cable.
Thunderbolt is basically a data-transfer focused version of USB, and just requires a different controller that supports the new protocols to achieve the higher speeds.
multiplexing is one way to achieve higher bandwidth and throughput over the same physical cable.
Microsoft already had this trial back in the 2001.
every field trip i had had a permission form with the cost on it that had to be signed by a guardian or you were not allowed to go.
His show is entertainment first and foremost. That means glorifying stupid bullshit for the entertainment value of it.
Most hard science is boring. Most fringe theory thinking is dramatic and thrilling.
all Tinder cares about is keeping you swiping, with your eyes on the screen.
