Because enough people believe his lies.

I don’t know what is wrong with people, it was plain as day that he was constantly lying, and everything that has come to pass was loudly broadcast during the campaign.

That and racism.

Are you saying it’s crap even though the writer put skill into the unique description, but used a tool to make a picture based on it?

Yes, they are entirely different domains. Thats like saying if someone painted a very beautiful picture, with effort and detail. Then claimed authorship over stories written about the subject.

Inspiration is a real thing, and should be lauded, but it still takes skill and an eye for art to render a scene. When someone gets a tattoo, do they usually claim they were the artist, should I? I have an extremely detailed idea for one I’d like to get, colors picked out, subject, poses, etc. but I am not skilled enough to render it, nor put it on my body. I’ve got a great design, but no art.

Hegseth / Lindell. A true dream ticket if there ever was one.

The only person you will hear that from is turnip.

I do wish she had been more outspoken, but her actions spoke loud enough. Dolly has always a force for good and compassion, and the things she supported were incompatible with the hate that so many politicians dedicate themselves to.

Mine has turned every conversation into a political fight and now refuses to speak with me unless I agree with their prejudices and medical quackery.

I miss my Nokia 8210. I had a case for it that slid open like the one at the start of the matrix. Dropped it in a puddle one night, pulled it out the next morning, dried it off and it kept working just fine. Had no waterproof rating.

I waded into a pool with my supposedly waterproof iPhone in my pocket by accident and it immediately died.

Allen Pan still puts out something amusing once in a while.

I miss the days of 3 minutes of insanity. Now every video is 25 minutes, and it’s all personality driven. It’s turned into regular TV.

We need a classic YouTube type site back again where people share shit for the fun of sharing. Monetization killed the platform.

Well said.

Ultimately it’s a capitalism problem, it makes the value proposition drift towards addiction in every single case.

I don’t know, I think the destructive potential makes up for any lack of imagination. StyroPyro is hands down my favorite YouTuber.

Man what an incredible trip that channel was.

Back in the day there was a whole slew of crackpots (in the best way). There was another who took the washing machine crown from PhotonicInduction, went by the name Aussie50. Used to love his content but he very sadly passed away quite some time ago (I won’t go into details out of respect).

These days the crazy backyard scientist vibe on YouTube has nearly dried up. So glad we still have StyroPyro.

I’m already kicking myself for buying into them in the first place. Fuck cameras, I’m going back to wired headphones. My $20 IEMs sound better than my AirPod pros, without all the fancy over processing.

I don’t know man, I’m a fairly old person and I’m constantly surrounded by people who seem unable to think without it.

What drives me up a fucking wall these days is how people will use AI to make a more “professional” message, then due to it’s verbosity it needs an AI to summarize on the receiving end.

Yet more evidence for my “never trust a self described libertarian” stance. Hasn’t failed me yet.

Because they have invested heavily into automation. A couple years ago the ford ceo went over there and came back terrified. He didn’t think it here was any way that american companies had a chance of competing.

I mean, can always rip them to flak as well if you are worried about quality. Even still, a good high bitrate mp3 sounds perfect to me so I still use it too.

Working on reorganizing my old music collection to try to de-apple. It’s a bigger pain in the ass than I expected, and I’m missing so much that I’ve added via subscription. Gotta do it though, I’m sick of paying subscriptions for everything.

The problem is that in this country there is no automatically issued national id. To get one costs money and takes time, something the demographic they are trying to prevent voting does not have in abundance.

Also, elections are run by the states in this country, and most do already require a proof. My state requires a utility bill, or ID, or something that proves you live at the address, which are tied to voter roles. So the ID thing is a red herring mostly, and non-citizen voters are usually limited to tiny fractions of percentages if any. It is not an actual problem, just a useful one.

So it’s working as intended. It’s always been the Hotel Cloudifonia.

No, I think I can downgrade it, I need to find an older version of the firmware as they don’t have it available anymore. I think I need a 2024 version.

I do have auto updates turned off, I should just block it at the router.
