    Thiel taking diligent notes on how to start WWIII. Topics for next year's discussion: •How to rebrand your authoritarian axis. •Deregulating nuclear safety to power AI: How the West finally kicked its fossil fuel habit. •Have the 99% really earned autonomy? •Global organ harvest and the path to immortality for the chosen elite. Nobody wants to call him out bc they've already accepted the future. If anyone in the U.S. actually cared about stopping genocide wouldn't they be demanding the U.S. stop giving billions of dollars in contracts to Palantir, and that any government official investing in genocide be forced to step down?

    in yes/no type questions, 50% success rate is the absolute worst one can do. Any worse and you're just giving an inverted correct answer more than half the time

    I blame the idea of the 00s and 10s that there should be some "Zen" in computer UIs and that "Zen" is doing things wrong with the arrogant tone of "you don't understand it". Associated with Steve Jobs, but TBH Google as well. And also another idea of "you dummy talking about ergonomics can't be smarter than this big respectable corporation popping out stylish unusable bullshit". So - pretense of wisdom and taste, under which crowd fashion is masked, almost aggressive preference for authority over people actually having maybe some wisdom and taste due to being interested in that, blind trust into whatever tech authority you chose for yourself, because, if you remember, in the 00s it was still perceived as if all people working in anything connected to computers were as cool as aerospace engineers or naval engineers, some kind of elite, including those making user applications, objective flaw (or upside) of the old normal UIs - they are boring, that's why UIs in video games and in fashionable chat applications (like ICQ and Skype), not talking about video and audio players, were non-standard like always, I think the solution would be in per-application theming, not in breaking paradigms, again, like with ICQ and old Skype and video games, I prefer it when boredom is thought with different applications having different icons and colors, but the UI paradigm remains the same, I think there was a themed IE called LOTR browser which I used (ok, not really, I used Opera) to complement ICQ, QuickTime player and BitComet, all mentioned had standard paradigm and non-standard look.

    Republicans are the biggest suckers there are. There's a reason as soon as the jig is up grifters pivot to conservative talking points.

    In the end I popped up the terminal and used some pot command with some flag I can't remember to skip the login step on setup. I reckon there is good chance you aren't using windows 11 home though right?

    I didn't care much about arc because it was chromium, but damn this is just bland and uninteresting compared to it

    Yeah, I don’t know how they’re doing it. They’re using some “zero trust” system. It’s beyond me.
