That was more of a hedge on my end lest I get someone sperging out about how he doesn't scratch the itch of their specific brand of autism. I'm sure there's something there if people dig but given the field he is far and away the best choice as it seems to me right now.
He's far from perfect, but when the alternatives are Vivek Ramaswampy and his UJW (Unlimited Jeet Works) and Amy Acton, the Ohio equivalent of Dr. Fauci, the choice seems clear.
His biggest issue by far will be getting his name out there. So people should spread the word about him ahead of the primary in any way possible.
I've heard AI being described as a force multiplier, and I think that is an apt description in most cases. If you're retarded or have poor work ethic, it probably isn't going to make you all that much better. But for people who are motivated and already know what they're doing it can elevate them even further.
For that to occur, RAM and chips would have to be completely removed from the consumer market. I do not see any reason to believe that will happen. The backlash would be enormous even among normies. But normies can be herded into anything with enough propaganda applied consistently over a long enough time so it's definitely something we need to watch out for.
Without all the receipts it's hard for me to say.
But yeah, at some point it doesn't really matter. Do I think they would have been 100% capable of smuggling him away to Israel? Sure. Do I also believe they would have also been fine with killing him to silence him? Yes. Which one of these things actually occurred does not really matter to me unless we can get concrete hard proof that he is still alive and Fortnite account activity is not good enough.
Amazing compilation. Thanks for taking the time to do this.
Does anyone here use AI for coding? If so what tools do you think are the best currently? Have had some success with Claude and Grok in the past but I know things change rapidly as the months go by.
While I think the powers that be will do what they can to keep that being the case, I'm not sure they'll be able to succeed. While state of the art flagship AI tools will likely be unable to be run locally for the near future, I can't help but feel like efficiency improvements will pile up and what is capable on personal machines will continue to increase exponentially, just lagging a bit behind the best of the best.
The biggest danger to be wary of is the government passing some sort of law to ban running stuff like this locally. I could definitely see them packaging something like that in a "think of the children" wrapper and normies guzzling it down.
The only "proof" I saw of it being a hoax was the official Fortnite account tweeting that it was a user who changed their username to Epstein's and provided no proof other than their word. So if you take them at their word, then sure I guess. Don't think that counts as proof for most though.
Unless there was some other actual proof that came out that I missed?
I guess you and me look at it differently then. When I'm at the gym and I see high school aged girls going obsessively from glute exercise to glute exercise to quad exercise because they undoubtedly want their ass to be oversized compared to the rest of their body, I think it is extremely sad and an indictment of our society that we've let them be inundated with that shitty culture.
So out of touch one can't help but wonder if it's intentional.
Very good read, thanks for linking. Part of me finds it hard to believe that a lot of Asia and Europe couldn't score higher on those Level 5 and 6 problems. I wonder how standardized the test taking environments were, how motivated they were, etc. I know most normies are retarded but the numbers shown in that article go well beyond that given how easy the problems are.
You're missing the point.
Absolutely haram! Seems like a very mild thing to get upset over. And it's no more rude than implying I would cuck out to fit in with my coworkers, which isn't even remotely what I was implying.
It seems the root of this disagreement is either:
- You seem to believe that ICE and the general agenda of tough enforcement of immigration law hasn't taken sizable hits in popularity in recent weeks. I'm highly confident this is wrong, you seem to disagree, but there isn't likely to be any way by which either of us can empirically prove it to each other. From my standpoint, the situation isn't unsalvageable, but at the time being normies are much more sympathetic to the protestors than they would have been a couple months ago. Getting more videos and other evidence in front of the eyes of the general public showing how these protesters might as well be animals, mentally children, or both is probably the best short term way to reverse the current trend.
Or
- You believe that even if it has taken a popularity hit, it doesn't matter because the agenda will somehow be able to be carried out to completion anyway. If this is actually what you think, I don't necessarily agree, but if there is some important factor I am overlooking that points to this potentially being the case, as I said before, I would love to be wrong.
Regardless, shit flinging aside, I don't really recognize your username, so whether you are an alt of someone who used to post here under another name or a new arrival / less frequent poster, I'm glad you're posting here.
Trust the plan. Two more weeks! I'd love to be wrong here more than anything, but if the past is anything to go by....
You say I'm the one who got uptight and prickly. How about you reread your previous comment and re-evaluate whether your wording would reasonably cause people to get irritated. Which whatever, I can handle it, but it's been a two way street here.
Any thoughts on what causes the post partum? Not the "accepted" answers I could potentially get from Google, but real hypotheses that might actually be correct. Perhaps side effects of all their whacky drugs? Shitty diet? Combo of the two?
Not that women in America aren't similarly messed up, but I was reading OP's post and couldn't help but think "Is this dude from Canada?" Then I saw the username...
You've assumed all sorts of things about what I supposedly think and believe but you're so off the mark it would be a much more productive discussion if you would just stick to things I've actually said. I'm not going to go one-by-one addressing things like "I didn't say this, I didn't say that, etc."
So what happens when dems own Congress after 2026 and a trifecta after 2028 when only like 10% (if we're lucky) the necessary deportations have even occurred? One step forward then 10 steps backwards when the border is flung open again for 4 more years.
You do realize we currently live in a country where public perception dictates who comes to power, right? No shit perception isn't reality. Especially the perception of normies; they're fucking retarded.
The only way your approach works is if orange man goes full dictator mode and seizes and holds on to power, harshly cracking down on rogue states like Minnesota and prosecuting their state officials. Is there any reason to believe that is actually going to happen?
I'd love to see Tim Walz in prison but the fact of the matter is, the aforementioned situation of the border being flung open again and us being in an even worse situation a few years from now is far more likely than Trump invoking the insurrection act and hauling away Walz in chains. Hell, it sounds like he already cucked and "lowered the temperature."
The super hard ass approach only works if you actually go all the way.
I have seen some but I have also seen plenty of them who are in favor of it and exacerbating any public relations L taken from the incident. I can't say I follow enough of them, or consooom enough social media to accurately say how prevalent each group is. But I did see a fair amount of both.
Very well said and I think that explanation applies to the vast majority of people. Personally I think politicians and those in positions of authority should be held to a bit of higher standard in terms of articulation ability, but then it circles back to my point of Americans being too stupid to understand it anyway. Just a mess all around.
I agree, and that is why I am going back and forth with another user about accountability in this thread. Public perception is important so long as we are subject to the wills of any room temperature IQ normie capable of dragging themselves to the polls to vote.
The problem is when people get frenzied and frothing at the mouth over it and don't attach the appropriate qualifiers. I saw plenty of conservatives yesterday retweeting and amplifying known terrible people who have 90% the wrong message just because they agreed with the one part where they said they don't like this shooting. People need to keep their heads on straight and be pragmatic.
You're missing the point. Public perception matters. Political capital matters and is finite. That is the unfortunate reality that we live in.
I do agree he is morally in the wrong. I don't think many here would question that. Just insomuch as video evidence seems to show he was not legally in the wrong, there probably needs to be some form of accountability for it even if it is something that is just for show like removing that officer from a public-interfacing position.
In an ideal world, him being morally in the wrong would be the end of it. But we live in a society of laws, and one subjected to the will of any room temperature IQ normie capable of dragging themselves to the polls at that, so that needs to be taken into account. We do not have the political capital to have incidents like these and then handle them poorly on the PR front. I live in a state that voted for Trump by like 10 points and I would be shocked if >50% of my normie coworkers support ICE.
armed for aggression
I don't think this concept has any legal merit though. And if it does, I really don't think I want the government to be the arbiter of that. Barring him not carrying ID (which incurs just a small fine), he was legally carrying.
the side that clings to ideals in the face of an enemy cynically engaged in the realpolitik of win-at-any-cost will inevitably lose
This needs to be hammered into people's heads. Saw so many "conservatives" joining in the frenzy bleating about muh principles. Even if I can agree with specific gun rights angles, anyone joining in the frenzy amplifying anti-ICE sentiment right now without attaching the appropriate qualifiers is undoubtedly pushing in the wrong direction and is an enemy at the moment.
I think having a gun in such a situation is and should be protected by the Constitution though. Don't get me wrong, I'm not losing sleep over it. He was almost undoubtedly a terrible person. But the administration needs to get its messaging right.
There would have been no major spike in discussion on them in all likelihood. Look how it was while Biden was in office. Not a peep from leftoids and even on the right, you really only heard about it in more "in the know" circles. The boomercon right had long forgotten about it.
