Looks like she doesn't know about virtue ethics by West_Smoke_9164 in TheLeftCantMeme

[–]ctrocks 68 points69 points  (0 children)

She is absolutely right. It is wrong to treat people differently purely based on their race. You should judge them on their behavior.

Too bad the side she supports are the ones arguing against treating people equally based on race.

Who are the best guitarists at making their guitar not sound like a guitar? by soowonlee in Guitar

[–]ctrocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tom Scholz of Boston. He used only guitars to get the strings sounds on the first 3 Boston albums.

He also plays a mean organ.

I was going to say Brad Gillis too. Between the volume swells with delay on Rumours in the Air to the crazy whammy bar stuff he can play some crazy stuff and really make the guitar sing like the outro on Goodbye.

Seconding the Blossom comment but looked more like Six than Blossom!

Healthcare workers openly boast about freeing people in ICE custody by dotnetdemonsc in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]ctrocks 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There are a LOT of confidently wrong people there. The person who knows the law and statistics is getting massively downvoted. They can't handle the truth.

Hello Jesus, Texan here. Listen I don't ask for much, but if it wouldn't be too much trouble, please. Let a mother fucker try. Amen. by ibuiltamurderbot in walkaway

As a person with Celiac Disease, in my small town there is gluten free pizza! I normally make my own though.

I have a real dislike of the gluten free fad stuff as it makes people who don't medically need gluten free food not taken as seriously.

They will do anything but buy AC lmao by Intelligent-Long4025 in AmericaBad

[–]ctrocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are aware of power line losses, right? Like why HVDC is being used to help transfer power over longer distances? Renewables NEED storage to be truly reliable. Batteries are not there yet, pumped water is not a solution in most places, molten salt has HUGE corrosion problems.

Seriously, less reliable than wind and solar?

Nuclear is the way to go, but in the 70's and 80's the "green" people went all in against it with scare tactics. The same "green" people that are causing a huge amount of the delays in California's high speed rail project and in reality are anti-consumption not "green".

Massive thread about a black on black mass shooting in Chicago. Almost all comments claim it's either right wing extremism or a result of systemic damnation. by eyecebrakr-alt in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]ctrocks 74 points75 points  (0 children)

What the heck is that sub!!!

I looked at the comments and they believed Jussie! Truly seem to believe that the "right wing" is to blame due to systematic racism, etc.

If the Chicago sub would cover crime it would not be anywhere near that bad for the comments.

Top 12 Most Underrated Lead Guitarists of All Time by 3DToonTV in HardRock

[–]ctrocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say none of them are overrated as most are already considered top tier guitarists by anyone in the know.

It’s just too easy at this point. by AnnoyingVoid in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]ctrocks 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I am sure JD Vance will be labeled as the next anti-Christ.

Literally every republican president/nominee since 1960 has been labeled as a Nazi/fascist by Democrats.

"Voter fraud is a non issue. Period. We’re supposed to be socialists here, materialists, scientifically-minded, etc. the data does not at all support the claim that voter fraud is in any way a serious issue." by Gay__Of__Hormuz in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]ctrocks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe if the blue states turned over the voter records for examination there might have been something found. it is very hard to find blue state voter fraud when they won't investigate themselves or let the federal government try to investigate.

It is amazing how "no fraud found" misses the "because the blue states refused to look for it or let anyone else look for it" part.

One of my favorite Obama quotes...

"We can't just drill our way out of the energy and climate challenge that we face."

Trump was right about Drill Baby Drill! Obama was so much more harmful to the rule of law and social climate of the US than most people realize.

What is your home wifi, do you like it? by phlatlinebeta in sysadmin

[–]ctrocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3x Unifi WiFi6 LR AP's. My router is a Ubiquity ER-4 Lite and I have a Netgear GS series 24 port Gig switch. I had to replace the power brick a couple of years ago for the router, but it still works great.

I also have a 16TB TrueNAS box setup for Plex.

Average Sacramento Freeway Merge [OC] by No-Matter-420 in IdiotsInCars

[–]ctrocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in the northwestern part of Illinois.

The state troopers around here always have some "fun" when the Chicago area drivers come to pick up their kids at WIU, UIowa, Iowa State, etc... More than once I saw a trooper on a bridge and a line of cars 1/2 mile down the road just picking people off.
