He should have said “dopamine farm for, number go up”

To many “smart” people have stood up and taken the credit for hundreds of others and generations of work.

We have been sold and buy the idea that there a supermen out there that are beyond clever and capable when they are just the result of their environment and resources from others. And now history is looked at through that lenses looking for singulars where there is plural.

Should have gone with trolling. It think internet wise it really means to trigger a response from others and they did accomplish that.

As I have said elsewhere, I’m not above a good wail now and again and won’t fault others for crying out. Crying doesnt enable an abuser. They abuse whether or not you do. Its what you do after you cried it out that matters.

Ok, I’m not gonna ask how you force a world to stop having children and rapidly reduce the population.
Its not an ice cream flavor and you are appeasing your ideology with something harmless to make it sound better than it is.

I actually do consider critically what kind of people would rise to a society that pushes this on others. I disagree with it and I’m gonna stop responding cause you are just fighting out an argument to defend your honor and your perceived morality rather than think critically yourself.

Dude, there is a memes that are mutliple paragraphs that some people can recite by heart.

Just mention eliter snipers or vaporeon and watch the people go.

Your post really called out all the “smart” people who have decided on a form of fascism to appeal to their idea of how to fix the world.

They won’t change their mind cause they want less people and they want to think it fixes stuff without having to read a study about it. They liked it during covid when there were less people to interact with I think and had comfort in wealth to not have to suffer the consequences and now just aim for it.

Good post. Love the resources.

You dont know what bigot means, just like you dont consider what you want will require. I disagree with you and what you think is right.

a deliberate mischaracterization driven by those who have a stake in growth and consumption.

Yeah thats what I thought.
So excited by who “degrowth” hurts that you dont care about reality.
And trump supporters aren’t racist or fascist they just want cheap oil.

Good luck getting everyone to shrink without the reality of how that would be enforced. Enjoy your dreams that absolve you of reality because they make you feel better. I won’t sit at this table any longer.

Then you should doublecheck who you have arguing on your side and who you stand with. You can pump your chest you do not personally stand for this but the practice attracts those that are more physically minded than you.

Degrowth sides with eugenics, racists, and psychopaths. Just cause you think it would save the world to make less lives does not leave it without those that will find horrible ways to make it reality as there is not other practical way to make it happen.

I dont think you know the definition of astroturfing.

That is your requirements and not the rest of ours. I have watched critics not add anything, we are empathetic creatures, sometimes we want to know how others feel, not just what they think.

I am honestly fine with people crying about it being bad and preaching to the choir cause it makes for a more full sounding song.

I dont require everyone that says anything to always be productive and I would ask you to ask yourself why you think that is normal to require from everyone else.

I’m tired of people pretending they are smart and problem solving by by mass murdering most humans on the planet and stopping procreation.

You don’t solve a jigsaw puzzle by putting 10 pieces together and burning the rest so you dont have to deal with them.

Can we stop thinking everyone that criticized something needs to have a complete plan on how to make it better?

Film critics can will make bad movies, authors dont make good politicians and musicians bad therapists.

Someone can speak aloud the truth and be critical and not have a plan. That is what the collective is for.
Fuck. Stop asking for superman.

Is it defeatist to accurately asses the situation of those with power?

Like sure it should be “no one in a position of government is going to do anything to push back or defend the peasants” but thats wordy and the peasants will occasionally shoot people but they just get stomped on harder and used as an excuse to feed us less and shoot us more often.
It is just wordy.

I mean the game is literally about civilization and how they think it will chug on as a broken machine far past its natural life because it sacrifices the lives of those who live under it starting at the the bottom until the rot grows enough to take all but those that can’t see that it is dead.

Its actually a pretty cool tool for looking at civilization and even has a minimum wage machine in silksong.

The morons here are the teachers.

People don’t know what they dont know and haven’t been taught. We have been relying on this idea that each next generation just has what the previous generation knows. It isn’t a practice thing it is a we haven’t prepared the new for what the world has to offer.

We do this everywhere and blame the uneducated and point and laugh. Fuck that.
I can’t wait for the students to learn and be proud when they do.

Its like they are preemptively thanking him for saving capitalism because they believe he will.

Its wild how much the wealthy are willing to believe fantasy as much as the peasants.

Probably, but it is not a gaming device but a network managing one and its been running for way before bazzite and just the thought of having to configure it all again makes my skin crawl.

I dont even game on my Linux system and every time it updates I know I have a frustrating night ahead of me.

Maybe just an Ubuntu thing but actually my steam deck has had to roll back a few times as well… At least it had that option unlike Ubuntu.

Maybe it is because I am using mine for network related apps that they are always what breaks but man it seems like some major backed component gets a rewrite every so often just to see if it is better. I have had so many port issues and network issues it makes me want to be Amish. That and trying to get video thumbnails back that one time. Wasnt a total nightmare but weird that it took me days to figure out that apparently I had to delete the cache then reinstall ffmpegthumbnailer…
So, no, not alone. Hate updates. Hate them so much.

Have you tried Nemo by the way? Kinda like it better than Dolphin.

Yeah. Maybe. I know I will never try arch again and I thought Ubuntu was supposed to be one of the good ones but its been so much stress.
I dont want to have to completely redo my whole system and all the software just to try a different OS flavor
