  • Might wanna take a break from posting memes if your ass gets this bent out of shape when people say your unfunny shit is unfunny. This is boomer tier humour. All that missing is a line taking a shot at the wife.

    Also if you think there’s nothing wrong with following some random chick around a store staring at her, as you stated in another comment, you’re creepy as fuck.

  • Starfield: The Kotaku Review
  • I had a similar line of thought. Man it’s been so long since I’ve even seen link to Kotaku that I wondered “hmm I wonder if they actually do journalism these days”. My guess is also no.

  • Does CS2 Sub Tick Solve The Tick Rate Debate?
  • I was pretty sceptical of sub tick but I found in CS2 I was saying “bullshit” way less often than in CSGO. I’d actually hit people I aimed at rather than apparently shooting their outline on the wall behind. I also found shooting while walking isn’t completely impossible as well now. Who knows might even get back into CS once it launches.

  • Texas prisoner accused of killing 22 older women is slain by cellmate while serving life sentence
  • Given prisons in the US are pretty much a source of slave labour and the fact that a lot of these guards are on the take (hence drugs seemingly be freely available in practically any prison) this failure of duty seems more like business as usual.

  • Germany went from envy of the world to the worst-performing major developed economy. What happened?
  • I don’t think people wanting a vehicle they might have to commute daily in looking aesthetically pleasing quite meets the mark of fetishising. You might be ok driving a cube 2.0 but the rest of the market may not be and considering electric is trying to break into the established market of ICE…. Though to the larger point, most places could solve the problem by fixing/modernising public transport but that may just be too radical apparently.

  • Yeah one of my better landlords was a sparky that worked hard af. This is Aus though so might be different. Any time we reported shit with the house he was out the immediately when he didn’t have a job to fix it personally and you could tell he was hot shit at his work too because he had his own business.

    Meta: Can we please get a pinned message about Mozilla‘s controversies?
  • Given the nature and tone of your replies, the appeal to your professionalism rings hollow. Especially telling every other comment that critical of your idea to get out or calling them childish. For someone supposedly attempting to help you’re sure being very belligerent and hostile. Might be worth doing some introspection over. I certainly hope you don’t communicate in such a fashion in your professional capacity that’s for sure.

  • Alabama wants to be the 1st state to execute a prisoner by making him breathe only nitrogen
  • In protist comment the “this…” after nitrogen narcosis is meant to indicate a change of topic to the OP. As in “X is boring this is pod racing. “ it’s ambiguous and a semi colon could have probably avoided this confusion. Or even just “what op is describing is”. Not that I think his comment is necessarily correct.

  • Swoletariat Ultimate: Capitalism Destroyers. All You Have To Lose Are Your Chains (Reloaded)
  • So Mao isn’t responsible for the millions of deaths under his leadership in labour camps, executions and famine because he was totalitarian and therefore it isn’t because of socialism? Yet capitalism is responsible for all the deaths from poverty and disease according to your image, does that about sum it up?

    Also no socialist leader was a mass murderer? Not even one? Every socialist leader much just be a perfect human being then. Very compelling.

  • Are Men Killing the Planet? | Our Changing Climate
  • I understand the foundational concepts to the patriarchy idea and accept that some people who believe it can draw the distinction. My point remains that most do not. Including this video author who felt comfortable titling the video as they did. Even in the paper this video apparently references the paper starts with addressing the patriarchy and rapidly goes from that to pointing solely to “white men” as being the focal point of the issue/paper.

    I think that claiming there is absolutely no patriarchy or patriarchal element to society is disingenuous at best. That aside I think it is looked to as the sole reason or even the main reason for a lot of issues without cause and little to no scientific reasoning. If the world switch to being a matriarchy tomorrow it’d still be business as usual because it’d be women CEOs/interest group/corporate entities making billions in blood money instead. Trying to pin all of societies woes on the patriarchy just does not seem in anyway conductive to the larger issue in this context, which is climate change. Especially when it does so on shoddy papers like the one referenced in the video.

  • Are Men Killing the Planet? | Our Changing Climate
  • It cites one study wherein 16 women and 9 men had an introductory conversation on the issue.

    Which leads you to feel comfortable making the widely generalised conclusion of:

    The video spends a long time on the phenomena wherein men tend to feel the need to dominate discussions regardless of their actual qualifications.

    One paper, with a sample size of 25. With no rigorous data beyond “we observed an academic meeting and the men spoke more times, for longer”. That paper also attributes a lot of reasons for why the men did this and nearly all of it based in speculation beyond the two quotes. The paper bases an astounding amount of assertions based off this incredible weak data.

  • Are Men Killing the Planet? | Our Changing Climate
  • Criticizing patriarchy is not attacking men or dividing groups.

    What an interesting thought given the title of the video is literally “are men killing the planet?”. People insist that blaming the patriarchy == blaming men yet in actuality this rarely seems to a distinction drawn by the same people who espouse the patriarchy rhetoric.

  • Donald Trump using bail bondsman rings alarm bells about his finances
  • No way. It’s not worth him getting assassinated by some lunatic. Honestly even if he’s successfully indicted he should be on house arrest. Lock his pudgy arse up but he has to be kept safe for obvious reason.

  • What anime will you never skip the theme on a rewatch?
  • The end theme for black lagoon still occasionally gives me goosebumps, I think it’s how atmospheric it is and somewhat calm/sad after the chaos of a typical BL episode. That I never saw the end of the outro until my second watch and always assumed it was her walking to her death after a firefight.

  • Having a hard time settling on a VPN
  • I’ll see if I bookmarked it but there was a site with a bunch of VPNs listed with their privacy/functionality compared. Using it as a reference I ended up on Mullvad VPN. Super simple set up for the basic stuff with some more functionality under the hood if you need. iOS and windows app for quick set up too. My experience with them has been only positive so far.
