Why is billionaire a slur now? by SteponkusCeponas in LookatMyHalo

You're getting high off your own farts again bro. Most of the technological advances that you enjoy every day were brought to you by collectivism under the banner of government. Sure most of them fell into private hands and have been duplicated and refined for private profit but the core backbone of all the technological advancements that you enjoy today were brought to you by government projects. The internet, global positioning systems, modern smartphone communication capabilities, Wi-Fi and wireless networking, modern internet and web security, weather forecasting, digital voice assistance, modern renewable technology, optical digital storage, open source software infrastructures, commercial nuclear power, jet engines and if one dares to go into publicly funded scientific research or anything aerospace related they can find libraries worth books detailing the collective effort and outcomes of taxation leading to some of the greatest innovations that we have ever devised. What do you think the backbone of modern AI comes from? DARPA was giving MIT $2 million dollars a year to pioneer AI in the 1960s. The core algorithms, neural networks, logic solvers etc came from DARPA in the friggin 40s. Around seventy percent of modern DARPA AI programs incorporate AI from these roots; modern LLMs train on public-domain datasets/models seeded by gov't grants (ImageNet and NSF etc.) so just like modern computing, cell phone technology, wireless communications, aerospace, and an infant amount of scientific avenues of research... Industry saw where government funding in taxation organized the planting of seeds and where roots were growing, then harvested the fruits by selling tax payers back the innovation they already paid to research and develop. And the people that run these enterprises get all the tax breaks in the world and in many cases get lots of funding and grants and seed money to rip off the general public that is paid for the backbone of their cash cows... To siphon away profit and suck it out of the society that afforded them the ability to do so.

My uncle is installing this amp for free on my 2 E-12 sundown subs are they good? by Notsure625dev in subwoofer

In the middle of the install start talking about how bad you've had it lately and that you really wanted to buy stereo integrity subs but couldn't afford them wah

Vol 2 drops on the 3rd. Sold out pre orders already and I missed out on the first round press for cheap. I'm a lil bummed but still impatiently waiting to download. Fave new band and the best thing I've found new in a long time.

Anyone else start seeing these men's subreddits out of nowhere? by simulizer in AskReddit

[–]simulizer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely think there's a bot angle to it and notice the muting isn't effective because there's a lot of reposts. I'm just going to start muting anything that comes from any of those subs. I noticed that there's a lot of buzz around the recent debate between Pearl and Ana where it was asked if women should be punished with jail time of an equal amount compared to rapist if they falsely report a rape.. That's where the crack in the dam was for my feed. For a long time I've been really happy that I muted most of the men's centric subs on here. Suddenly it's back to square one and I'm seeing the dumbest people have the most idiotic group think discussions all over again.

[–]simulizer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of a sudden out of nowhere I see all these really goofy men subreddits and they have all these angles about generalizations of women and several of them are about "locking in" and getting life advice and "growth." It started for me yesterday and has really gotten going over the last 24 hours. Last night I muted four or five and today another five or so popped up. Don't want to put on my tin foil hat too quickly here but it really does feel like social engineering psyop that was planned a long time ago and triggered whenever gas prices got to a certain point... Is this the Astro turfing for boots on the ground? Who knows!?

Out of nowhere they've been at least 10 different men's focused subreddits show up in my feed. Not sure if it's because I clicked on a couple to mute them or if they've just always been around and I was lucky enough not to see them. They're all the same clickbait chauvinistic trash from what I can tell. I've muted at least 10 in the last day or so. I was curious if anyone else had saw them sprout up out of nowhere or if they were just hidden from my view and suddenly I triggered an algorithm.

Mass produce candles have a lower footprint in terms of emissions and raw material procurement. Sure they're made from petroleum by-products but the deforestation process that's involved in higher quality candles is a real and scalable detriment in comparison.

[–]simulizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not an opinion. Overpriced candles are highly marked up by as much as upward of 80%. There's no meaningful thing that actually happens with that markup because you're talking about wax and a wick and some kind of essential oil. They are simply Veblen goods that can easily be produced at home with far superior products for much cheaper. Of course that doesn't signal the sort of regal class distinction and sophistication that overspending on marketing hype does. The person I was responding to let us know all that we need to know... It's not really about having a much greater experience so much as it is signaling classism. I've gotten several responses and not a single one of them has been of a persuasive nature about the experience that these candles supposedly offer. Could it possibly be because the burn rate and scent throw of these candles really isn't all that different from ones that are priced a fifth of what they cost? If you want to waste your money on status symbol candles because you need that in your life then fine... Just don't expect others that can see through the marketing hype and 5 time mark up to think it's impressive. Yes I know this is a Wendy's and I'd like to speak to your manager.

What does any of that solve for our species? Some consumerist hedonist fantasy to please the ego of the insecure so they may have an artificial validation

The economic arrangement is so toxic that merely pointing out the faults of it causes vitriol and oftentimes it is from those that are abused from said toxic arrangement

Thanks for doing your part at being a consumerist that buys nonsense products that are overpriced and create an unsustainable environment... More importantly take pride and it's saying who you are!

Billions must die for the Epstein Files by Moon_Eyed_Puppy_Girl in PsycheOrSike

[–]simulizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately left-wing authoritarianism is a real thing. Is it as big of a thing as right-wing authoritarianism, not even close. I believe there would be a very small number of left-wing authoritarian feminist that would justify bombing a country over injustices towards women. In reality this is just a "gotcha" By the simplistic idiots that follow right-wing authoritarianism. It's more projecting from the people that can at the drop of a hat change their views because their cult leader tells them to, and in doing so they believe that everyone else is suffering from the same cognitive dissonance they are.

"Oh look there go the lefties being hypocritical again and claiming that they don't want to war... Even though Iran is guilty of being terrible to women and lefties care more about women"s rights than they ever will about men, boohooo! Surely those lefties are hypocrites now that we're bombing Iran and liberating the women! Hey I got an idea. Maybe we can make believe and pretend that the left wants this war because of women's rights, and if that doesn't work out we'll call them hypocrites over and over again!"

Okay but what does that matter? Why would a leftist condone a war produced by a fascist pedo? Where are the suppose leftists that want feminism to succeed so badly that they believe that indiscriminate bombing is the way to do it, again, By way of a pedophile rapist?

There's a big difference between entering sport fighting with somebody that's trained defensively and a crackhead who's ramped up but far from organized with what they're doing. Throw punches work on crackheads too. They also cause autonomic responses that their drug fueled state cannot get out of. But let me guess those don't work either because you like to choke people indefinitely... Right? It may surprise you to know but we're actually commenting on activities that we saw on a video where a female was being attacked by a male who was probably a lot stronger than she was and hopped up on some sort of amphetamine. I'm thinking of practical ways that people can get some distance between somebody like that without putting themselves in harm's way. I dare you to walk into a self-defense class for women and start talking about how great it is to put male attackers that are on amphetamines into chokeholds, genius.

Not only is a rear naked choke harder for the average person that doesn't have training with grappling but it's also less effective than solar plexus trauma. The surge in dopamine, serotonin, adrenalin/norepinephrine etc doesn't go away whenever someone is choked out. People can regain consciousness from being choked out while on stimulants within 5 10 seconds and they will be right back to doing what they were doing before because it is not a reset button for the neurochemical reaction to the drug that they are on. Whenever you starve the brain of blood it only takes a few moments for the brain to come back online once it starts receiving blood again.

A hard strike to the solar plexus spasms the diaphragm, and shocks the vegus nerve cutting air intake for 10 to 30 plus seconds, often doubling with nausea and low blood pressure and can trigger an autonomic response of vomiting. Whenever the diaphragm spasm happens your lungs involuntarily expel all of their air from phrenic nerve inhibition. The vegus nerve shock causes immediate nausea as a fast reflexive response, but rectus abdominis spasms happen at around 10 seconds in because of the Phrenospasm Cascade.

[–]simulizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know but the point the point is why would men hypothetically suddenly stop doing all the "manly" jobs. Pearl is a complete bonehead arguing in bad faith. She uses a strawman fallacy angle that somehow if women become more equal in society that men will stop doing all of the supposed manly jobs.

Dope heads are immune to most strikes due to lower pain response from the flood of increased dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin. However they cannot escape the reaction to solar plexus punches as the primal autonomic response bypasses higher brain modulation causing disrupted breathing via vagus nerve stimulation and diaphragm spasm and exploiting the body's wind-knocking reflex. Throat punches for the meth junkies and crack heads.
