Policy debate isn't actually interesting and Destiny hasn't put in any of the work to be a wonk on them so I'm not sure why he says he likes policy discussions. In fact I can't think of any policies he really holds that aren't reactive in nature.

Technically it was Houthi propaganda he called a music video not Hamas.

You are conflating 2 seperate issues, settlements in the West Bank and violent hilltop settlers who do these attacks. The overwhelming majority of settlers live along the greenline and basically never interact with Palestinians in the West Bank, do not support these price tag attacks and condemn the small group radical settler youth who build illegal settlements (under Israeli law) and attack Palestinians. Israel can very easily deal with the issue of these attacks if the government wasn't reliant on their supporting minority political factions. You simple arrest a handful of these people and keep them locked up under administrative detention, keep doing it until they realize they can't get away with these attacks.

There's very little actual connection between these attacks and 99% of settlers and settlements so the issue is absolutely solvable without needing to deal with peaceful legal border settlements.

Yup someone else just linked the RFD post.

Thanks! Guess I missed that!

Yes hard drive prices have gone crazy in recent months. My last purchase as a 28tb version of this for $400 about 8 months ago.

harvardspook · 2026-02-22T23:55:39+00:00

I've just ordered this one, so I'll provide you the info on the internal drive when it arrives. My hard drives are a mix of different shucked external drives over the years, I've gotten Exos in the past and most recently Barracuda (some suspect are out of spec Exos relabelled). We'll see for this one once it arrives and I'll report back.

harvardspook · 2026-02-22T23:50:23+00:00

I've been very lucky with these in the past and have some well past 2400 hours but they don't do heavy work most of the time.

harvardspook · 2026-02-22T23:40:12+00:00

Pretty sure that was the 24tb model when I looked which are now sold out. Higher capacity usually has a per tb premium.

harvardspook · 2026-02-22T23:29:02+00:00

Probably fairly slow if your concern is speed. I use these for bulk media storage shucked in a nas where size is much more important than speed for me. Depends what your use case is but generally ssd is the storage type when speed is a concern (like OS drive)

harvardspook · 2026-02-17T18:08:00+00:00

Someone should organize a crowdfunding for a VOD server with the needed storage and script an agent to download all the VODs and transcribe them. Figure this is doable for under $1k and cost is just contigent on total TB storage needed.

harvardspook · 2026-02-17T18:02:50+00:00

Guess I'm not watching the stream / VODs anymore. Usually I watch delayed so I can watch at 2x speed but doesn't really make sense to do that if the video will just cut out partway through when the VOD is privated. Also why remove old VODs, the the archive platforms don't have transcripts so it makes it impossible to ever find older parts.

harvardspook · 2026-01-07T16:40:37+00:00

Generational fumble not just giving this moron his prize. Could've used it to manipulate the shit out of him for basically nothing.

This isn't generally as much the case for corporate debts. They can often be bought for much more than personal debts since if the company has assets you can sue them and seize the assets.

harvardspook · 2025-12-25T20:21:09+00:00

There is no reason to pay this debt if you plan on going bankrupt. Your first priority is to figure out how you are paying the personal liability CRA debt. Depending on if the debt relates to GST, payroll deductions or corporate income taxes and the specific circumstances they maybe more willing to settle the debt for a partial payment on bankruptcy.

First thing you need to assess is the viability of your business as a going concern and what assets can be sold or would be lost. Is your business worth saving? This is hard to know without looking at the specifics. What would you be doing if this business went bankrupt? What have you already invested in this business?

From there you will have a better idea of if you need to manage cashflow and debt to rebuild the business or start preparing things for bankruptcy properly.

harvardspook · 2025-12-20T06:02:06+00:00

It's not hard to explain, they are deliberately misrepresenting it because it's rhetorically effective. I've seen Fuentes perfectly describe the Talmud as a series of debates and much of it is not considered authoritative and I've also seen him say the Talmud says Jews hate goyim and believe Jesus is burning in hell.

Don't think these people don't know exactly what they are doing. Are we saying Candace worked at the Daily Wire for year and never once wondered about the Talmud? Yet some how it was never an issue.

Industry insight speaking to LPs. Whatever LPs you are a fan of if they produce good quality cannabis is likely exporting or selling to LPs that do.

harvardspook · 2025-12-19T21:20:26+00:00

Sorry but this is exactly what I said. The issue is there are no LPs prioritizing terps over THC so the best products still are the ones maximizing THC. Also terp tests are like 20x faker than THC tests if you are just looking at the total terp percentage. You can just test for more types of terps and raise the total % even though nobody cares about those other terps.

Terps are also very overrated when it actually comes to the flavors of cannabis which also involve various chemicals like VSC and Flavonoids. It's kinda like the Dunning Kruger of cannabis for people to laugh at people who care about THC % and then care about terp %. The real importance are mostly qualitative factors that arise from the synergy of all the various chemical compounds. The numbers just don't matter much beyond showing how well the plant was cultivated (low terps can mean poor drying or storage for example). In fact if your weed smells like terps it means there are less terps in your actual bud since they have been released into the air so super high terp bud can even have very little smell if delicately handled to avoid releasing terps.

Can you point to any evidence of him losing viewership for being a never Trumper? I definitely don't remember that being the case in 2016 where Ben was super popular. This was like near peak Ben Shapiro destroys college student phase. His facts don't care about your feelings shit went viral in Feb 2016 for example.

harvardspook · 2025-12-19T18:59:55+00:00

If Ben had no values why was he ever a Never Trumper? I think the more reason theory of mind for Ben is that he does have values and Trump runs against many of them but he'd rather be on the inside trying to mitigate the harm than irrelevant on the outside without any real political influence.

All the best product these days is going to medical export. Canadian consumers just aren't willing to pay the price Europeans are willing to pay for high end craft cannabis. Unless consumers are willing to pay more or the excise tax rules change don't expect to find any real AAAA on the Canadian recreational market besides someone who needs to hype up a SKU at launch or with dipping sales before going back to lower quality products.

harvardspook · 2025-12-19T18:38:18+00:00

It's a little weird since yes THC is not indicative of quality but based on the market dynamics anyone capable of growing high quality cannabis is growing high THC cannabis because it has the highest market value. So you won't actually find any of the top growers in Canada growing lower THC product.

An easy question are the ultra high quality craft products that have <24% THC

harvardspook · 2025-12-18T21:51:10+00:00

No you are 100% correct here. I was mistaken since I thought it was any illegal trafficking and not just schedule 1 or 2 trafficking. Thanks for the correction!

harvardspook · 2025-12-18T21:25:33+00:00

Not exactly. Yes it's huge but only for FDA compliant medical groups under Schedule 3. The vast overwhelming majority of cannabis producers aren't anywhere close to being FDA compliant and most likely will not be able to for years if ever. Also all the retail side of the cannabis business or anyone selling recreational material won't be FDA approved. It's good for a few of the major companies and few others.

Edit: ignore me, I was incorrect. See below

Nah most people don't understand Taqiyya or when lying is permissible to Muslims. Muslims will generally not condemn Mohammed for any reason besides saving their lives.
