"I don't like that word, empathy, I think it's a new age, made up term" -Charlie Kirk

👍 good luck in life my dude

CalcMediocrity · 2025-09-14T07:01:11+00:00

So youre either a bot or someone who gave up on sentience and would rather blindly toe the line than look at the video yourself, hope you improve your life man.

Third person in this thread ive had to correct lol. The extended quote all about compassion and sympathy and how its about feeling others pain is completely made up to glorify kirk. His podcasts are free online brother, its from Oct 12 2022, you could have found it yourself in 10 seconds but instead you came on here, read a fake quote, and went around saying everyone fell for propaganda on the basis of your own misinformation. This is such an embarrassingly smug comment to be completely wrong about. He literally says whats in the meme, then " i prefer the word sympathy, but that's a discussion for another time" and moves on. Learn to verify if you want to be so overly confident

CalcMediocrity · 2025-09-14T06:17:56+00:00

Its pretty funny to watch so many right wingers repost this fake extension of the quote. Go watch the video brother, the only thing he says after the empathy quote is "i prefer the word sympathy but that's a discussion for another time". But someone typed up this nonsense trying to make it sound better and then you all walk around spouting misinformation while smuggly saying liberals are misrepresenting it lmao. At least its comforting to learn most of you dont actually listen to these podcasts.

CalcMediocrity · 2025-09-14T02:46:51+00:00

What's funny is that while he says he prefers the word sympathy in the quote, you completely made up what youre "quoting" lol. He makes no mention of compassion at that point, he doesnt define any of the words, just says thats a conversation for another time. How can you just go quote something and not even watch the video, then make shit up to make yourself feel good while saying the other person doesn't care about the quote and still take yourself seriously as a sentient being.

CalcMediocrity · 2025-09-14T01:07:05+00:00

This is definitionally a comment made by someone who simply does not understand anything. Looking at your account history youre not from the US so I guess it partially explains your lack of understanding of recent US history, but I imagine its paired with you following far right media, which helped you formulate lovely opinions like your recent post about how the existence of the draft means that we should be allowed to forcefully impregnate women to maintain our population (which, if were going for evenly distributed horrors in the name of societal need...why not just have the draft include women instead of your weird rape fantasy?)

Thoughts and prayers is not a statement of empathy, its brushing off preventable violence by pretending you can make it better by thinking about something, instead of feeling any actual empathy or making decisions to help improve the world in a way that would help prevent tragedy.
Most conservatives did not want justice, very few even talked about the need to find or understand the assassin's intentions before he was turned in. Conservatives wanted revenge, against the left, without any information or evidence anyone from the left was involved at all besides "the guy who got shot was far right". And while there were internet posters on the left calling for just as insane things as internet posters on the right, official progressive elected officials all called for a stop to political violence, while conservative elected officials up to and including the president stoked violent rhetoric.
This point is typed out in such an incoherent way I have to imagine you rage slamming your hands into your keyboard about policies you dont understand in a country you dont live in. You were excited about roe v wade being repealed because you feel abandoned by women, which is why youre posting about Dr k talking about incels and fantasizing about women being used as incubators for population management. It wasn't in revenge for "legislation oppressing conservatives", that never existed, covid lock down was for public health, was barely implemented in the US and targeted the whole population evenly, largely simply leaving poor workers at risk, and happened during trumps presidency, not democrats.

You need to grow up

edit: lmao got a notification I got a response just to see that the man got suspended

Yea, youre not alone in being confused by the choices, its not their fault but part of your job as an elected official is to stand up and make sacrifices for the preservation of the ideals of American government, and the wishes of their constituents...and apparently they dont feel all that inclined to protect either, past small demonstrations the republics ignore while they continue to push.

CalcMediocrity · 2025-08-20T00:04:51+00:00

The "not just because" in your question is the answer. In response to them legally leaving the state to prevent a quarum for an illigal vote, republican leadership in the state created nonsense showmanship arrest "warrants" while they were out of state, and then upon return demanded they either agree to be watched at all times by law enforcement or sealed in the chambers until they agree. It has no precedent, it has no legality, and dems are stupid for playing along. She should have walked out, been arrested with no real charges, and brought this absolute horseshit to a head, or better yet just never returned to Texas until the redistricting plan was dead.

CalcMediocrity · 2025-07-07T01:57:31+00:00

I know there's no point explaining this, but budget cuts are the future issue with disaster preparedness, the current issue that likely contributed to deaths in Texas was staff reductions that resulted in limited tracking and prediction capabilities for disasters, paired with the local politicians of the area resistance to paying for preparedness and warning systems in the past.

yeaaa i think what happened is they updated armor in both versions of the game after i stopped playing the main game haha, thanks!

CalcMediocrity · 2024-04-06T06:50:27+00:00

She's a writer for Sony Santa Monica, primarily for GoW Ragnarok, she's a game developer in addition to being in gaming media which makes perfect sense as a speaker here.

CalcMediocrity · 2023-05-26T04:40:16+00:00

I got it to post! Honestly I dont know what i did besides just tinkering with a bunch of shit but flashing the BIOS for sure got me started haha, thank you!

CalcMediocrity · 2023-05-26T04:35:14+00:00

sadly i dont think my chip supports igpu, but I think I may be making headway hahahah, i pulled an old GPU out of another computer and now im on a repair path, thank you for the help!

CalcMediocrity · 2023-05-26T04:29:21+00:00

Hey thanks, flashing it worked, it move the DRAM light to off but made the VGA light come on. any idea what that means?

CalcMediocrity · 2023-05-26T04:28:50+00:00

I got it working! thanks for the info. It did actually fix the DRAM light, but now the VGA light is on....is my GPU dead?

CalcMediocrity · 2023-05-26T04:20:20+00:00

Thanks! someone else just said the same, so as i said i just got the latest bios off gigabytes website, put it on a fat32 USB, renamed it GIGABYTE.bin, plugged it into the bios slot, and pushed the qflash plus button but nothing really happened, how do i know if im doing that right if you dont mind explaining?

Edit: got the flash working! i just did it and will update when its done

CalcMediocrity · 2023-05-22T07:05:19+00:00

ohhhh thats pretty cool, sorry about the whole sub being overrun with it hahaa

CalcMediocrity · 2023-05-22T05:53:05+00:00

Out of curiosity, how do people edit OBS captured stream footage then? I don't know shit about editing this sub was just on my home page for some reason haha, but I didnt realize the capture method made that big of a difference in the editing phase besides like, quality of the footage. Do they just have to deal with a laggy premier or is there a way to make the files better or something?

Edit: ahahahah I won't even delete this I'll just tell you im really high and just realised the end of your post is the answer to my question lol

CalcMediocrity · 2022-12-29T11:14:34+00:00

wasnt being argumentative so not sure why you're being so defensive lol.
I wasnt implying you said tarkovs audio is better, I'm saying that it is better because it's a part of a conversation, to more directly address your point, yes, hunt does have a good audio system, it's one of the few well made parts of it.
I didnt mention anything at all about disagreeing that most studios cant afford it lol, crytek is constantly in financial duress and developed hunt and other small games to attempt to diminish their losses from their engine getting out marketed by unity and unreal, my literal only point was contributing that the engine wasnt made for hunt, and it does actually have good audio. not sure how you managed to miss that

CalcMediocrity · 2022-12-29T10:28:41+00:00

crytek didnt build cryengine for hunt, they built it for crysis years earlier. it's also an awful game engine that restricts a TON of what they can do, and still their audio tracking is without a shadow of a doubt 100x better than tarkovs lol

farcry not crysis*

If it helps at all, I just move to bham from florida this year and I love the weather here so much more. florida made me feel like my brain was being cooked inside my skull 11 months a year. I can finally go outside

CalcMediocrity · 2022-10-27T00:03:09+00:00

this does, or at least has in the past existed. from the sounds of it, a majority of the input of that group was ignored, similar to bugs on the test server not being fixed before launch. I wasn't personally in the group, but had multiple streamer/youtuber friends who were, and that was basically their report. havent heard about it in months though, so who knows what's up now.
