    Detailed analysis reveals that Google’s and Microsoft’s electricity consumption — 24 TWh in 2023 — equals the power consumption of Azerbaijan (a nation of 10.14 million)

    It’d be fine with me if Azerbaijan consumed few times that in a few seconds and stopped stinking for a century or so.

    EDIT: Oh, didn’t look at numbers and units closely. The point stands, Azerbaijan should be nuked. Good for the planet (it’s a barren wasteland in every part of it populated by Azeris, and even in the illegally occupied Artsakh they had their way with forests in just a few years with quite a success), good for humanity (reduction in negative value), good for countries whose politicians they bribe, and obviously good for Armenians against whom they commit crimes.












  • What? Are you fucking delusional? I understand brown people are not really people for you guys there, but do you realize how many people indirectly and directly “these” people have killed in Syria alone, counting only cases of being simply too lazy?

    Killing two people for fucking presidency? You think it’s unrealistic?

    Anyway, the answer to the question “how Machiavellian” is “fully” for everybody participating in politics, because we are still homo sapiens and our time is just as Machiavellian as Machiavelli’s time, there are no naive people there, and if there are no poisonings and assassinations left and right there, that’s for the same reason only there are no nukings left and right on the map, not because they are moral.







  • Well, this comment of yours doesn’t look like a good faith argument.

    What I meant is that it takes two sides for one. And when two people are ready to argue in good faith, one may downgrade the level of contention from “argue” to “discuss” without any loss.

    (For me and my sister it would still be “argue”, but we are just rude to each other.)
