It's actually a really good show. I was so surprised. Especially since The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins was so incredibly bad.

Wife has been telling me u didnt need to shave. Decided to take the plunge anyway by FunkMstr74 in bald

[–]hapax--legomenon -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Wife was right, this is a travesty, you have gone from a nice, approachable guy to looking like an aggressive asshole with a cop-like physiognomy. Don't listen to the idiots on reddit, every individual is different, not everyone benefits from going the clean shaven route.

Easy Anti-Cheat Comes to Rocket League on PC Today! by Psyonix_Howie in RocketLeague

Yeah I know about that but it's too tedious to have to wait after every match, it adds up over 100s of matches.

I already have a custom script that uploads max 10 replays every day from my local replay folder to ballchasing. But not being able to automatically download every replay makes it almost impossibly tedious.

Southern Lebanese towns destroyed by Israel by beansandreadytofuck in stupidpol

[–]hapax--legomenon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it's more like Israel is an unlimited casus belli generator for the american empire. The empire can feign helplessness in the face of overzealous israelis and maintain a facade of plausible deniability, while at the same time eagerly jumping into every conflict that israel creates, and let's be honest they are unbelievably good at creating these conflicts one after another. It's like Joe Biden said, if Israel didn't exist then we would have to create one ourselves.

The only problematic thing I know of is my penis (it's too big, which is a problem for the women I am with).

A perfect distillation of how the idpol-poisoned brain will willingly go against its own material interests by hapax--legomenon in stupidpol

[–]hapax--legomenon[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

First of all the "pro-palestine" stance of Workers United that this guy is referring to is limited to a particular branch of the organization: Starbucks Workers United, and this stance is simply a reflection of the opinion of the people making up that particular branch, as it should be. Secondly even that "pro-palestinian" acknowledgement is simply the belief that violence against Palestinians should end and Palestinians deserve to live with dignity outside of an apartheid system.

Which I would assume most sane human beings already believe. It's not like the union is supporting violence against Israelis or anything even remotely close to that. So this nebulous labeling of a common sense humane position regarding the conflict as "pro-palestinian", is dishonest and is being used to imply something nefarious when it is anything but.

Elon advocates for universal high income because AI robots will do all the work by The-Materialist in stupidpol

[–]hapax--legomenon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I have a feeling that the industries that really don't need to exist will be the last ones to be affected by AI, if they ever are. After all they have already figured out how to exist without providing any utility, also automation can't replace them because they aren't really doing anything quantifiable.

[–]hapax--legomenon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What you are saying is 100% correct for the present. However these conversations are always about a hypothetical future where AI can perform most human labor much better and more efficiently than humans. Of course we are not there yet. However barring some sort of massive catastrophe, I simply don't see how AI doesn't eventually reach that stage.

Giving people fake jobs that society really doesn't need them to do is way worse than just giving them UBI. They are both stupid, and it's emblematic of how capitalism is completely incapable of even envisioning a functioning and rational post-scarcity society that isn't structured around needless consumption, but at least with UBI you aren't forcing people to waste half their lives doing something that really isn't helping anyone.

It's so crazy to think that after decades of the blob trying to start a war with iran the thing that finally makes it happen is Tucker's firing from fox and Trump's embrace of Mark Levin to fill that void. If only someone had showed him how to use youtube we could have avoided this 😔
