mhague,

Pasta with Cheeto-flavored cheese flavoring.

mhague,

I don’t see a negative. It’s foss so you ought to be relaxed about others using your code. The issues are probably just articulating problems that were already there. If it’s stuff you don’t care about… it’s a foss repository so you just ignore it.

mhague,

Nearly all guns will have a legal upstream source, so it stands to reason that taxes can directly impact people selling guns used in crimes, indirectly impacts those who sell them under the table, extracts money from gun owners who as a class aren’t being as responsible as they should, and fundamentally reduces the amount of guns in circulation.

mhague,

Looks like a lava shader material preview but instead of a ball they used something food shaped.

mhague,

I’ve been distracted by Kmag stuff, does Haas have good tire deg yet? I assume Hulk will be on his own this race

mhague,

What opening is that? Legal’s mate is fun to go for (1350 blitz on lichess), but I only ever reach that kind of position as white.

mhague,

Why didn’t the gazelle just be in the middle of the pack? Then it wouldn’t have been singled out and hunted down.

mhague,

Maybe I’m hallucinating because I can’t find it, but I swear there was a Nietzsche bit about “It is a weak man who walks around in armor.” In this case it’s literal armor.

mhague,

Based on the headline I got the impression that the bible was excluding these two amendments. As in, their absence was jarring in the presence of the other amendments.

The truth is that they left out 17 amendments. Because it’s Trump. It’s aimed at people who don’t care about the Constitution. The customers just want the greatest hits, the big names.

Misleading headline aside, here’s what the they actually omitted (aka here’s a truth which doesn’t leave anything out.)

  1. Can’t sue a state unless you live there.
  2. Structures electing presidents / VPs.
  3. Slavery is banned except when it isn’t.
  4. Born on US soil == you’re 'Merican, Harry.
  5. Suffrage regardless of race.
  6. Taxes.
  7. Structures electing senators.
  8. Prohibition good!
  9. Suffrage regardless of sex.
  10. Specifies length for Presidential / VP terms.
  11. Prohibition bad!
  12. The two term limit for Presidents.
  13. Gives D.C. electors.
  14. You can vote even if you didn’t pay taxes.
  15. Formalized the VP succeeding a dead president.
  16. Voting age set to 18.
  17. That time when Congress took 200 goddamn years to impose a restriction on their salary.
mhague,

Essentially, they needed a list of things their target audience would eat up. Then they included the minimum amount of content required to say they had those things. (Remember, Trump et al are cheap as hell.)

It’s like an anthology saying, “We have Anne Rice! Stephen King! Issac Asimov!” and then it’s just one novella from each. But the customer just wants a book with those names on the front so it’s fine.

mhague,

This makes some sense as all foods are salads; sandwiches are untossed salads, tacos are untossed taco salads.

mhague,

Oh, your god said we should do that? But my god is a super god times infinity and he says the opposite.

Just goes to show you that for every kid that is mature for their age, there’s 100s of adults that never left the playground.

mhague,

I Used To Type Like This When I Was Young Using MSN Messenger and Yahoo Chat Rooms. It’s Like Hyperfocusing On Aesthetics/How It Feels To Type, And Not Having The Impulse Control To Stop Yourself.

mhague,

I’m going to bookmark this group under “Worldbuilding Resources.” Thanks OP.

mhague, (edited )

The other day I was trying to disable Ubuntu Pro stuff and the way to do it reminded me of Windows. Once I get my media backed up I’m switching to another distro, just not sure what one yet.

mhague,

Someone who doesn’t have conspiracy-brain. The people that say capitalism is working as intended seem to live by the inverse razor of “never attribute to collective stupidity of the implementors what can be attributed to deliberate malice by illuminati-like mechanisms.”

mhague,

But capitalism doesn’t explain itself in terms of “the owning class” screwing everything up out of self-interest. Capitalism will talk about positively channeling people’s self-interest. The intent is to construct a system that benefits people the most.

It’s objectively not working as intended unless you think there’s like… a hidden conspiracy behind capitalism where the elites carefully inculcated an economic theory over generations in order to normalize a system that would end up solidifying their status for hundreds of years to come.

It’s not working as intended, and it won’t work as intended, therefore we shouldn’t try to fix it.

mhague,

I think we should compare dogs and cats to good pets to own, rather than pretending the choices are “big powerful dog” and “environment destroyer 3000.”

After all, both are safe in theory, but irresponsible pet owners ruin it. You can’t expect everyone to correctly take care of certain dog breeds, you can’t expect the majority of cat owners to give up the “proud to roll coal” attitude towards their cat + the environment.

Let’s just have pet spiders or something.

mhague,

By roll coal types I mean people who feel indignation when told they’re doing something harmful to the environment. There’s usually a bit of eye rolling involved.

mhague,

Japan was completely blockaded, which is such a profound thing in war that it’s really all you need to defeat “nuking was necessary” arguments.

And they were completely resource starved, another profoundly important detail of a war machine.

And the fanaticism + “they will die to the last man, woman, and child” is grossly misrepresented in the context of nukes.

But these details aren’t relevant to how Palestinians and the situation in Gaza is portrayed. No siree.

mhague,

We could have lab grown organic automatons, controlled via LLMs embedded in a neuralink. They will be considered non-human and therefore may serve as emergency rations. At the discretion of the tank commander they can be detached and used for eg minefield discovery, targeting consensus, or as “meat shields” as it were.

mhague,

The more you give Israel the greater their scope. It’s completely obvious that you can attempt to limit their ambitions while still allowing them to defend themselves and engage in limited geopolitical maneuvers. They are not going to bet everything on manifest destiny at the expense of self defense and keeping terrorist groups in check. Make Israel have less and they will prioritize accordingly.

mhague,

Your comment gave me one of those… things. You know, like a headache but with pictures.

mhague,

It feels Kafkaesque. “Hello, I’m against genocide. Do I stand in line to be labeled a terrorist simp? Should I stand in the Nazi line? Just wondering what label I’ll need to own.”

mhague,

It’s funny seeing it out of nowhere when you’re used to it being like giving someone the middle finger.
