    The problem isn’t with the understanding of how vaccines work, the reason idiots don’t want vaccines is they dont trust what you’re telling them is the case.

    In their mind, these soldiers you’re training are better if they’re naturally fit and learning how to fight through real world experience.

    And this “training” you’re giving your soldiers, is actually just Al-Qaeda’s communist lgbtqia+/? agenda being pushed by Joe Biden and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (in their mind).

    Here’s the thing: you can’t use logic to reason someone out of a position they didn’t reason themselves into.








  • You’re kinda right, but not really. Based on a reductionist definition of a black hole, our universe is inside one.

    However, that’s strictly based on some of the characteristics of a black hole, and our universe.

    However, if we’re talking about black holes with more nuance, the answer becomes “no”.

    I’m not qualified to answer this, but I happen to know someone with a PhD in astrophysics, who has published multiple articles about black holes. We’ve talked about this before and long story short: we don’t live inside a black hole.

    The big bang theory disproves it. The existence of background cosmic radiation doesn’t match the interior of a black hole; it’s geometrically impossible.

    Our universes ever growing horizon is out of limits, and we can’t escape from it. That’s not the sane thing as an event horizon though.

    before anyone fucking @'s me… I get that saving RAM state across system updates could break shit. But it doesn’t have to, especially if you implement a tagging or compatibility layer to track what’s safe to resume. That kind of bridging isn’t impossible, it just takes planning.

    FOSS software routinely considers edge cases like this. Microsoft doesn’t. That’s not a tech limitation; that’s just not caring about user convenience.

    This post is kinda annoying to respond to. Not because of what you said, but because it’s hard to map my intuitions into words and convey exactly what’s wrong with Windows in the first place.

    Linux doesn’t require immediate rebooting, it assumes the user will choose the right time. And if Microsoft actually gave a shit about user autonomy, there are smarter ways to handle updates.

    For example: instead of forcing updates in the middle of the fucking day, just wait until the system would normally sleep or hibernate, or when the user is clearly inactive (like at night). At that point, the system could save the current RAM state to disk, reboot with updates applied, and restore the session exactly as it was.

    This isn’t sci-fi. NixOS can already do this (barring kernel changes). The fact that it works proves the concept is viable.





  • The idea behind using the word “faggot” was to illustrate how political correctness has been destroyed by Trump. The episode is a wake-the-fuck-up call.

    The consequence of all trumps “anti-woke” (asshole) rhetoric, is that something as shockingly backwards as saying “faggot” has become normalised (and Jesus is back in school lol).

    If the usage of slurs in this episode pisses you off, then good. It means your dickhead-detector is calibrated properly. (Trey and Matt aren’t the dickheads btw)

    Now, if you were in South Park, who would you blame for this? The answer is Trump.

    Trump has normalised people saying “faggot” and “retard” because that’s his legacy. Not helping anyone, only himself, by appealing to the anti-woke dickheads, and convincing his base this matters more than improving the lives of the people he was sworn to help.

    Trey and Matt don’t just fire off slurs like that for kicks. They’re trying to shock you into thinking about how the pieces fit.
