First time I heard a Newsguard ad read I was reminded of the FCC fairness doctrine that leftards worshipped over a decade ago. Inherently compromised from an unworthy core concept.
The hidden cost of a populace that thinks centralized government creates a level playing field is that honest business will drown and suffocate. Even if Odysee survives the auction, it will lose it's entire purpose.
Now that YouTube is escalating against adblockers, abandoning legal video streaming is a solid option.
Edit: IPFS still exists. Other alternative technologies exist. The signal to noise ratio of the mainstream web continues to deteriorate, possibly to the point where a critical mass of dissatisfied web surfers flee to sustain alternatives. Hopefully within my lifetime.
Edit 2: Random example of actual alt-tech, and its current hurdles.
Only idiotic thing the man did was not discuss testing before engagement and impregnation. In the comments are well constructed fables about men projecting, and similar groupthink* shaming. Catty women and male orbiters only deal in subjective convenience and fragility validation, so I have no good faith that more than a fraction of a percentage of upvoters are capable of contextual honesty. Scroll down and some disagreement is upvoted.
* Hivemind is less awkward to say than groupthink in conversation, but I hate reducing the elegance of bee/ant eusociality to the level of sub-apes*
It is a shame that Japan couldn't figure out basic economics over their 32 year slump. I'm not sure any large nation has tried since the 50’s.
Yup. Strangling the post-WW2 "statesmen" that thought a two-state solution was a good idea would be right after poisoning 19th century communists on my todo list if I acquired a spacetime machine.
Action bias. Transcends national tribal leanings. In survival training, it's tangible that looking and feeling busy will waste calories and hydration. In post Neolithic social dynamics, such waste is redirected to prolong specific power structures past their expiration date.
In the mid 20th century, Egypt intended the Gaza Strip as a hostile geopolitical buffer to Israel. I'm not saying the modern Egypt has any obligation to house refugees, instead that the broader Muslim world (and CIA) has put considerable resources radicalizing Palestinians.
Browsers have had password managers + generators since before t_d split from Reddit. Up your tech game.
My money is on Waldorf education.
Long-running shonens aren't my thing, so I wouldn't be able to appreciate substantial downgrades from the source material. Except for Nami being a b-cup with a trendy haircut that will age like unpreserved bread. Just watched a clip, what the fuck is the unnerving cinematography they settled on?
I listened to a few clips of Nerdrotic when the algorithm pushed him onto my feed. Way too branded and formatted for Youtube profit. I'd rather have content that provokes the ordinary person in any given year, like American Krogan. Or obscurity, like a conference speech between the lead designer of OG Doom and the inventor of the first digital video game, who was also the first to implement a high-level programming, that only got 6k views in 10 years.
COVID vaccines were dangerous because of the cult-mentality around their safety, and that half the world population was exposed to these shots. The jab is a societal contagion rather than a high individual risk. You can't flush spike proteins, so hopefully you can get by faking the shot. Learn to become an effective, egoless liar.
As other comments said, weigh in whether she's shit-testing and will find other nonsense to satisfy base human vices. If she's genuinely fearful of variant 7+, just take the shot, and ghost her when you've saved enough to pay deposit on your way out. Working two bottom-barrel desperation job for the next decade would be more demeaning than a relatively low health risk jab.
I was lucky enough to postpone the shot until employer absolutely demanded it when I had enough saved to move states. That happened a few weeks before I planned to quit anyways, for other reasons. Next employer backed down when they realized enough of their workforce was going to leave, plus that the pandemic was over spring of last year.
In Germany, are those libertarian-socialists living alternate to reality or akin to UK's lib-dems where they've been disconnected from classical liberalism since our great-great grandparents were born?
Toxic artist egotism. The audacity of the peasant viewer to to enjoy the work in their own way.
There's got to be at least one big game where the companion notes "oh, we're in a rush", then let the player character fail a hostage rescue because they didn't catch a helpful breakdown of the scenario. For that matter, most games don't have involved objectives like the first level of Dues Ex: HR, so the PC should have the option of just running ahead and skipping time.
I've had a few ideas simmering the past 7 years to drastically overhaul online discussions and resist Eternal September. Now you've got be doubting whether this is a fool's errand...
"Mah heckin basedrino EU and UK granting us USB-C iPhones and blocking Micro-Acti merger (no longer true)" - Crowd pandering dipshits
That's what I meant, that we're too compromised to pull off such an operation. Not that true colonialism is inherently immoral, which it isn't.
Imagine if The West dropped 2 centuries of leftist delusion and indulgence, to form actual crusader states in 2002. We have a supreme technological and educational advantage over the high medieval militaries, but a spiritual/cultural regression.
MS Game Studios was fine during the first two consoles.
A relative of mine pointed out the possibility that other staff were responsible for executing the philosophy and aesthetic of the Matrix, and that the Wachoski bros were always off their rockers.
What platform(s) are you referring to? A few games like Zork were ported off their mainframe/minicomputer roots.
The App and Play Stores absolutely stink. I don't trust a market that can't be assed to put Newpipe or Vanced on their phones.
Good art is good art. My presentation statement was aimed at newer gamers and clickbait journos who think Skyrim's animations are its biggest sin. Or that its prescripted NPC interactions are an undoubted improvement over Oblivion's; these people have no joy in their heart. 3d graphics from 2006 were enough, but woe to any mid-budget studio that doesn't want blow through its budget on visuals or lean on a gimmick (ex: fake voxels in Minecraft). Disqualifies you from most of the console market.
Like corporate managers, lots of indies just follow the trending genres and mechanics, unable to go beyond 'going through the motions'. Lots of tower defense around 2011. Thankfully the market usually punishes this lack of imagination.
Bush knew that Clinton's nation building was unpopular while campaigning in 2000; Youtube was great for casually educating on shit like this before ~2009. I get that the MI complex profits off it, but how many voters gave a shit about nation building in long disgraced Near East shitholes?
Narcissism by low IQ. Normie's might be retarded gossipers and duckspeakers, but 99.5% of the players never encountered the controversy. Hate it when these fanatics assume everyone shares hperself's lifestyle.
Securities vs. commodity classification that many cryptocurrency companies have been targeted over.
