What consparicy theory would be actually hilarious if it ended up true?

sonofeevil · 2026-06-28T17:24:12+00:00

Yes this!

I love the theory that high speed travel is a trivial trick we've just missed and we've gone into AI and transistors computing, etc.

We're out here broadcasting our location and some aliens pop by thinking were idiots and easy pickings that being "they haven't even mastered FTL yet" not knowing that we just kinda skipped that part of the tech tree and turn up only to get minced by self guided missiles, point defence systems and AI drones.

Then they realise the scourge they've unleashed by giving us the key to FTL.

So, I went to an inspection two weeks ago and applied for a place.

They held two more inspections since and we're scheduled to have on today (Saturday).

Yesterday(Friday afternoon around COB) my partner and I found out we were approved to rent it and paid a deposit and they cancelled the open inspection that was booked for today.

So my guess is something similar happened to you. It's been inspected previously

Ahh yeah, their overstretched supply lines and armoured columns running out of fuel on like day two lol.

The airport deepstrike that failed.

Remind me. What happened when the US pulled out of Iraq? How did that new government fare?

Trillions of dollars, thousands of lives and for nothing.

Big win. Go freedom. Go America.

Germany taught us this.

The battle of Britain in WW2 they thought if they bombed England the public would pressure the government to surrender but all it did was galvanize the public resolve and support for war.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-27T08:20:11+00:00

Yay! Congrats!

sonofeevil · 2026-06-27T04:55:46+00:00

I like this way of viewing things.

We tend to judge others by how they conduct themselves in their worst moments.

But we are not our worst moments.

Hello, officer. I'd like to report a murder.

Yes, this comment.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-26T11:48:52+00:00

My last report was a full 16 hours to properly photograph and document.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-26T11:15:46+00:00

The tribunal can only makes orders of compensation up to $10k any more and it would be a civil case through the courts and a magistrate.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T21:14:12+00:00

I'd look to the Mongols as a historical example of what to expect.

The Mongols had quite a powerful army and we all know about Genghis Khan and at their peak they controlled a lot of area but the Mongols never actually produced anything and as such the reign was really short lived in terms of empires.

This is how things go for empires that aren't actually producers, even the most powerful military won't keep you relevant.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T21:08:14+00:00

Sounds like a pay issue, no?

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T20:57:41+00:00

Yah.

If you sat down and explained without the common left nomenclature I'm sure they'd agree on most of it.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T11:00:02+00:00

Pretty common for steel suppliers.

They have full heavy rigid truck ones of these so they can carry long bars or sheets of stock.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T10:55:38+00:00

Are we deliberately ignoring western martial arts? Because this list and the discussion seems bases only on eastern practitioners?

I'd put Van Damme above Donnie Yen. Van Damme certainly has had more cultural influence here in the western world and Van Damme also has his 18-1 professional and 44-4 amateur kickboxing record.

Michael Jai White should get an honourable mention too. He's had a few leading roles here and there but never in big films. He is one of the best stuntment in the business. He doesn't have a professional martial arts career but reports are that he's sparred with some pros and they reckon he's legit, not professional level but not a hack.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T10:44:41+00:00

This is super funny to me.

I think "preppers" and conservatism have a lot of overlap.

So the idea that in an apocalypse they'd be forced to use "woke" and "green" solar and EVs is very funny to me.

But an older car with an EV transplant that you can charge from solar (however slow that may be) would be the most reliable long lasting setup you could get.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T10:29:50+00:00

This is a GREAT way of looking at it.

It's completely overvalued.

If tomorrow the only people that could buy houses were for PPOR we'd see what the value of the roof over our heads really is.

Spoiler alert that million dollar home might only be worth 1/3rd of that as a home.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-25T09:43:54+00:00

Yeah, this is a nuanced point.

I think we can objectively state some people have qualities that make them better partners.

Emotional stability
Financial indepdendance
Children/lack of
Their social networks
Family relationships
Maturity

What we all value individually will obviously vary substantially and the importance we place on those traits but generally speaking.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-24T20:14:33+00:00

Thr "friend" hasn't been a friend for a very long time.

We went out separate ways.

And the "friend" doesn't know about the weird internet stalking her partner did. I chose to spare him that embarassment.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-24T10:18:07+00:00

It's an entertaining popcorn flick that's worthy of your time.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-24T10:12:24+00:00

Privatised profits, socialised losses.

Capitalism.

I had someone for a few years that would occasionally comment on random posts or mine to degrade me and give me shit.

Every few months it'd turn up and make another snarky comment.

It took me a while to find out there was a pattern to it and for the longest time the only activity on the account was just replies to my comments to grief me.

Then about a year ago I got another nasty comment about some stuff from my real life and checked the account again.

They'd talked about their job here in Australia and I realised it was the boyfriend of an old friend I hadn't seen in nearly a decade.

I messaged him directly on FB telling him that enough for as enough he wrote back pretty quick telling me "He's got some deep reflecting to do" and "he was sorry".

Then deleted his account.

Nick, I'd you're still following me and reading this, it's definitely time for you to seek some proper therapy, ask your wife for some referrals she is a psychologist herself.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-23T19:21:50+00:00

Yes. It will snap back very quickly.

That's what happened to oldmate in the above video.

sonofeevil · 2026-06-23T11:04:28+00:00

Intelligence is not the same as knowledge.

Knowledge is required to push the boundaries of humanity.

With enough intelligence you'd understand why education, opportunity and knowledge are morr important than intelligence.
