  • Its so hard for these people to understand that when you spew hate at others, whether through your actions, your words, or through your ballot, that people have less empathy for your than other people that might experience similar hardships and haven’t been spewing hate.

    The whole comparison of “you laughed at Charlie thing, and now we’re laughing at ice killing” is so hard for these people to understand why most sane people view these deaths differently.

    Person C spent his entire life spewing hate and saying some crazy shit that puts other people down, or in danger with his gun laws thinking, etc.

    Person R was just a normal person, not spewing hate as a career.

    Cue the shocked Pikachu face when they realize I care more about person R, than person C.

    Similarly, if this person voted for Trump and lost his farm, I’m gonna have a lot less sympathy for him, than someone who voted against Trump, and lost his farm.




  • Friend’s brother was like this during the 2016 elections, he absolutely would have voted for Bernie, but after the DNC prioritizing Hillary, he either didn’t vote, or voted from Trump, not sure which. There is truth to the contrarian angle to this. If they feel they’re being manipulated one way too hard, they’ll vote the other way out of spite, or not vote out of spite. And they don’t care about the effects, they’ll take an accerationist angle, stating the whole system has to come down, so it might as well happen sooner than later.


  • I guess it’s easier packaged in a torrent rather than individual downloads, but I do question why anyone would need this if all they were doing was training AI, as everything is already available on YouTube for free. You don’t need to hack a company to get the audio. Now if you’re a human trying to actually listen to the songs, obviously the Spotify torrent will sound much better, assuming the hack captured the higher quality audio streams from Spotify. All the youtube downloaders sound like crap because its like 128kbps m4a (at least on newpipe, though you can do 160kbps opus if you want)














  • The thing I hated about Netflix was the stress of knowing i was being watched with my viewing habits and that affected how they decided to cancel or continue shows.

    Imagine being a customer at a restaurant and the chef is in the back watching you eat, saying things like:

    “well, if he doesn’t eat the whole thing in less than 10 minutes that means he probably hated it and won’t continue to buy more burgers, so we should just remove it from the menu now and never serve that burger again.”

    Who the fuck wants to ‘relax’ and watch stuff when i know if I start watching something and stop after episode 1 because I liked it, realize my partner might also like it, and I wait 3 months to watch it together (not within their 30 day or whatever window), knowing that might contribute to Netflix canceling a show that I fucking liked in the first place!

    SO RELAXING GUYS!

    So no, I don’t stream stuff anymore. I’m sick of paying for content that constantly gets canceled, and also experiencing stress while doing so.

    The maintainer Catfriend1 set the whole repo to private and apparently transfered the repo/code ownership, and signing keys to someone else without telling anyone? There’s some more to it, but the maintainer didn’t choose to share any info with the public, and it makes it seem highly suspicious what their intention and motivations are/were with the codebase.
