I was just postulating to a friend, that if we built a huge array of solar panels, set out in a pattern not unlike solar sails, and deployed them out in-between the Earth and the Sun, we could block an appreciable amount of heat, which might act as a way to slow down climate change on our planet. Additionally this array could be connected in a grid, making it a huge space station, and energy source, where we could potentially use it as a base to start collecting and mining asteroids.

And then I read about these dumb mother fuckers who want to redirect sunlight back at the earth, making climate change worse, all to replace a couple flood lights? How fucking stupid is the person who brought this to reality? Jesus fucking christ.

The ultra-orthodox follow a strict policy of gender segregation and, in Israel, have insisted that women ride at the back of buses.

trash religion.

bro thinks funko pops are a hobby 🤣

Might not be the best way to do it, but hey, they’re doing something. I’m proud of them.

bro nothing makes me less interested in knowing a person than finding out they have a funko pop collection

This is stupid. My JNCO Jeans back in the 90’s would drag behind me everywhere I went. Water from puddles, bits of crap from the ground, literal crap from the ground, my JNCO Jeans picked it ALL up. I carried that shit with me, I didn’t care, I looked cool as shit. When I went to the mall (Mall; noun: an ancient place of commerce) and got on the escalator, I hiked my jeans up so that the puddley excrement skimmed against my bare shins, and I wouldn’t get sucked down by the demons.

Fashion is cyclical I guess, but stupidity remains constant.

I downloaded this program called “Driver Easy,” which scans my hardware, searches automatically for driver updates, downloads and installs them for me. If I could download a wizard that got rid of windows, installed a nice user-friendly version of linux, while keeping my old programs, files and junk… I’d do it in a heartbeat. All I want to do is play my video games from Steam, download shit to watch, browse the internet, write in Libreoffice… Can I do all those things with Linux? Can I download some install wizard to switch?

If that wizard existed, a shit ton of people would switch. It’s just the idea of deleting my current OS and putting in a new one makes me thing I’m gonna brick my machine.

no, I’m fine with prohibiting the nazi salute, because we’re not allowed to shoot or beat the shit out of them for doing it. Make it legal to kill nazis and then, yeah, sure, help identify yourself as a nazi all you want.

The court heard Bull was among five people who interrupted the Academy Award-winning Holocaust drama by making Nazi salutes, denying the Holocaust, and praising Adolf Hitler during the screening.

Bull also told the court he relied on Centrelink payments to support his family and said his partner was expecting their second child within days.

Bull did not apologise for his conduct during the proceedings.

Bull appeared in court wearing a black Helly Hansen polo shirt. The clothing brand has been appropriated by some far-right extremists because its prominent “HH” logo is interpreted by them as an abbreviation for “Heil Hitler.”

So this nazi and his coward friends disrupted a crowded theater by mocking the holocaust, making nazi salutes, and saying hitler was right. He shows up in a heil hitler shirt, never apologizes, says he shouldn’t face punishment because he’s “suffered enough being unemployable as a result of his actions,” and… they say OK? This scumbag is reproducing, living off welfare, and is actively promoting genocidal hate, and the judge says “just have him do a bit of community service?”

Guys. Remember what we used to do to nazis 60 years ago? Why don’t they just do that?

zuckerburg and his shitty company explicitly allow this shit because it makes them money, and only ever remove it, feigning ignorance, once their actions are condemned by a government. profiting off of child sex abuse.

zuckerburg profited off child sexual abuse.

The longer I stay sober, witnessing events like this, the less willing I am to subdue my ever-strengthening desire to burn shit down

Don’t you see? if he has enough money then Grimes will love him again! It’s not pathetic, you’re pathetic!

you seem delightful. People must really like you in your personal life.

oh yeah all that water vapor is real scary 😱

bro, what the actual fuck. go back to the stock market or the casino. why do we even need more fucking gambling. Does anyone want to bet on the amount of lint in my belly button? might as fucking well.

This week, the situation hit a boiling point when the song “Earrings” by Malcolm Todd surged to number one on a Spotify chart. In a series of X posts, Davies outlined his suspected culprit: “botting,” or scammers who purchase bots to juice streaming numbers.

Oh, can people manipulate the stupid bullshit you’re betting on? damn, sounds like a “you’re a fucking moron with a gambling problem” problem to me.

…the assumption was simple, that solar belongs low and warm, on sunny roofs and flat fields, not up in the freezing thin air of the mountains.

Well that’s a stupid assumption. what other kind of electronic works better when it’s super hot??

The country makes plenty of power in summer, but runs short in winter, when demand climbs and it has to import electricity.

That gap is set to grow as the nation closes its nuclear plants.

Damn, two stupid ideas from the Swiss. At least the fabled “someone” put those solar panels up there. 🙄

I have a friend that works in the film industry. He’s real talented, and has trouble finding work. So sometimes I feel a pang of regret, pirating stuff. Then I see bullshit like this, and it helps me know that I’m doing the right thing. When technofascists get so mad about people being against them, that they turn the internet off, I’ll be sitting pretty with my external hard drive stuffed to the brim with all sorts of awesome stuff to watch.

old.reddit is the only way I use it. this goes away, I delete my account.

The support forums like r/stopdrinking and r/CPTSD have been lifesavers for me, but reddit just keeps finding new ways to be terrible. RIP Aaron Swartz

“You are expected to be clean when you enter a tournament,” the official Yu-Gi-Oh Tournament Guide says.

At the time, this policy was welcomed among players,…

wait, so, it’s not now? are they against showers now??

…and Chronos Games & Gifts is similarly receiving praise from local attendees for keeping its venue stench-free.

what a weird way to put a sentence.

“Yeah I used to be for people showering before tournaments… I still am, but I used to be too.”

it’s a luxury piss, and I’ll be damned if I don’t sit down and take my time while on the clock.

Landor during his five-month prison term in 2020. When he entered the prison system, he carried a copy of an appeals court ruling in another inmate’s case holding that cutting religious prisoners’ dreadlocks violated the federal law.

At his first two stops, officials respected his beliefs. But things changed when he got to the Raymond Laborde Correctional Center in Cottonport, about 80 miles (130 kilometers) northwest of Baton Rouge, for the final three weeks of his term.

A prison guard took the copy of the ruling Landor carried and tossed it in the trash, according to court records. Then the warden ordered guards to cut his dreadlocks. While two guards restrained him, a third shaved his head to the scalp, the records show.

Bro was only in there for five months, everyone else respected his beliefs, until he was sent to another facility for his last 3 weeks in detention. 3 fucking weeks, and they HAD to shave his fucking head? This reeks of racism. Godamn fuck 1312. ACAB gets extended to prison guard bitches too it seems.
