None of the images in the posted link show any kind of right wing thinking, simply him responding to right wing ideas, often more thoughtfully than alot of people would. Whoever that max person is might have been a close friend, in which case any leftist knows you sometimes have to temper your arguments to try to gradually get through to people. Even the architecture thing, hes talking about how material conditions have shaped and caused the “oppressiveness” that carlson calls out, whereas tucker is claiming its intentionally designed to make people miserable or some shit.

This is dumb in a lot of ways but ill pick the most glaring two. Firstly no marxist would consider a CEO working class. Secondly Luigi clearly read a ton of books.

Noone is criticizing Biden for pardoning his son. Theyre criticizing him for ONLY pardoning his son and doing jack shit besides that. Im happy that his son has someone willing to use the system to help him, i wish the rest of you did too.

“Theres no ethical consumption under capitalism, so what do you expect me to drive a used car like a PEASANT? If i cant consume 100% ethically ill just consume however i want, and i want a fancy german treat car so just shut up okay”

Im sure you could find a usb c camera that could easily be obscured or pinned to a lapel or otherwise disguised for cheaper than the price of a pair of smart glasses, or even just wear your phone on a lanyard around your neck with the screen facing your chest. People might think its weird but noone is going to second guess it unless your phone is in your hands actively pointing at them.

Have you not heard of a router? Sure i have an internet connection but i wouldnt have to. Lots of people have subnetworks that are isolated from outside network access, and my router would still be able to stream from my computer to my laptop even if my internet was down or i unplugged the modem. The last time they did scheduled maintenance on my internet thats exactly what i did, i streamed things that i had previously downloaded and saved on a different computer.

If youre only streaming it within your home network that could still be very much offline…

Microsoft mjght have been better than thwy are now then, but they were NEVER fun and cool. Dont be gaslit.

Yes it is if you read the article, that’s exactly how he had it set up, and then you just have to manually move the battery where power is needed. You just can’t use your wall outlets when there’s an outage.

Why is n64 emulation so bad in particular? I got my girlfriend one of those handhelds preloaded up with roms and although I haven’t tried any n64 games it seems to run other 3d games from other consoles of that Era fine. Also I remember having an n64 emulator on my modded original xbox that could run games fine, I played through all of mario64 on it during quarantine before I built a new gaming pc. I feel like handhelds should have similar power to an old Xbox by now but maybe not.

You’re just saying a bunch of things that don’t actually mean anything now. I don’t even know what you’re trying to say with the financial stuff, but with the games stuff, how is there utility in trading a skin outside a game when you can only use it in that game anyway? Besides companies would have to adopt that tech. How is having a public ledger proving you own a skin in BigShinyGame worthwhile if in order to use that skin you have to log into your account on BigShinyGames servers and use their matchmaking service. If you’re relying on a company to host a multiplayer game for you anyway, why not keep relying on them to host your items? If the game goes away so does all the value of your stuff.

The data wouldn’t be stored “on the blockchain”, that would be incredibly inefficient. Even with NFTs which were mostly only JPEGs, the blockchain only stored a hyperlink to the file on a server somewhere. You couldn’t keep a 2GB movie file on a blockchain. So it really doesn’t solve any problems, as you’re still relying on a server somewhere to host your media for you. How exactly does that benefit anyone?

If I have a movie downloaded on my computer I own it, I don’t need a link on a decentralized ledger to prove it to anyone lmao. The movie itself (or the music) isn’t even “on the blockchain”. It’s clear you don’t understand the technology.

I mean YMMV based on location, but I’m in a semi major city in canada and I ordered some stuff off Prime on Monday evening and it was here by yesterday afternoon. I’ve had non prime stuff come quickly too but not that quickly and the longest I think I’ve waited for something prime was 3 days.

I mean sure, searches are basically useless now and the internet is filled with ai and seo garbage, but most everything is also still out there /somewhere/, even if it may only be in like the archive of the NSA. Plus when ai gets a bit better certain people will probably be able to link everything you’ve ever said to your “advertising profile” (Google basically already does this). Plus I’ve been saying for years that soon enough there’ll be a facial recognition crawler app where you upload a photo of someone and it shows you every picture they’ve ever appeared in. Although with how good deep fakes are now this is arguably less concerning.

You said nothing is really free.

I think it’s more that the pictures being represented as real is what’s damaging though…

I mean the spaceships in star trek, star wars and firefly all have pretty different interiors. Of your idea is to draw in fans of specific shows you don’t really want to have a “generic sci fi” setting.

I don’t disconnect my phone from internet because my usage is too spontaneous to always be turning it on or off. I do have my app permissions locked down though, GPS always off unless I’m using it, and nothing is allowed to run in the background except my VPN. I totally disconnect my pc from the network cable when I’m not actively downloading something though.

That’s okay, I’m sure the lemmygrad and hexbear users are embarrassed to find out you use it too.
