asacrowflies··on In wake of Windows 10 retirement, over 780K Windows users skip Win 11 for Linux
I switched my gaming pc to Linux and my only remaining issue that seems over my head is getting proper fancy audio effects or equalizer settings for my headset. Music and games are night and day from windows to linux.
asacrowflies··on Moss Survives 9 Months in Space Vacuum
Bold claim withno real backing. This mass extinction might be the great filter. Seeing people dismiss it so flippantly and arrogantly is astounding .
asacrowflies··on Your smartphone, their rules: App stores enable corporate-government censorship
Why not? As we get pushed more into a corner on this obviously self evident logic chain. Many of us WILL NOT EVER comply with this absurd oppressive tyrannical control of computing and communication and information. We might as well embrace the same non arguments of the over the top second amendment people.

It's literally the silly meme. You will take my gun/GNU from my cold dead hands lol

asacrowflies··on Your smartphone, their rules: App stores enable corporate-government censorship
How old are you? You are describing literal history... It's called FCC compliance
asacrowflies··on The time has finally come for geothermal energy
Solar doesn't? As far as I know the process for mining the panel and batteries is the same sulphuric acid process with extremely toxic tailings. And you get uranium in this process of rare earth mining. These toxins are orders of magnitude greater in risk and in volume/ quantity than process's nuclear fuel waste.
asacrowflies··on Proton 10.0-3 Released for Steam Play with Fixes, More Games Working
Can't see how that is true. The amount of abandonware games on windows is staggering. Let alone the unsupported legacy stack of apis in windows NT. If mega corp Microsoft doesn't follow these rules in the slightest... I think the foss devs will be fine
asacrowflies··on The government has no plan for America’s 300 billion pennies
Maybe if you had clean uncirculated pennies and lots of them(why?) but using pennies from my local gas station in my pies? How about no..... And washing them seems not worth the effort when a bag of dry beans is 70 cents .
asacrowflies··on Israeli-founded app preloaded on Samsung phones is attracting controversy
Seems reasonable. Same way "Russian" companies are shady. Doesn't matter if they do something inane . This is really basic geopolitics that only had a short respite... Like less than 30 year period as cold war slowed. This is very normal.
asacrowflies··on How cops can get your private online data
And in the cases of seldom. They are held at literal gunpoint with threats of treason or perjury to actually make anything happen.

I love stalman and these blatant bullying tactics with obvious lies and bullshit meant to have an emotional reaction short circuit any actual rational read. The stalman controversy is the text book example of bullying an autistic person with semantics. Seen the same shit since grade school.

Just trust me bro

What are you even talking about?
asacrowflies··on Canadian military will rely on public servants to boost its ranks by 300k
I can't take anything you say that serious because of the rather extreme bias. 'buy Greenland" I think seize is a better word if your avoiding the term invade.

The amount of LEO that are scarred everyday by weird fury porn is my comfort in this life .
asacrowflies··on Think Weirder: The Year's Best SciFi Ideas
Yeah a lot like older sci Fi works I think we won't take the warnings. Glad we aren't completely blind to it tho. Remind me of the "1984 was not a manual" memes
asacrowflies··on I was right about dishwasher pods and now I can prove it [video]
The entire previous context of this guy's videos is why that is actually bad from a water use aspect and defeats the main benefits of using a dishwasher.
asacrowflies··on Cloudflare tells U.S. govt that foreign site blocking efforts are trade barriers
So you agree with the long standing China model?
asacrowflies··on I Stopped Being a Climate Catastrophist
The Eocene was 45 million years ago. Humans have existed for less than 250k.

The interglacial warming is the most likely origin of the catastrophic global flood mythos across many cultures (including the Bible). And involved a scale of mass migration and suffering/death that would make modern sensibility recoil.

Your argument is like if I burned down your house or community but stated "well the forest will reclaim it in 10 thousand years and it will be beautiful and full of life! Is anything really even different on the grand scale?"

I care about the immediate future. And all the suffering and death, and the animals and plants that coevolved with us and ARE our evolutionary environment.

It's absurd and either supremely ignorant or bordering on malicious anti social behavior . The paradox of tolerance is being pushed to its limit.

asacrowflies··on I Stopped Being a Climate Catastrophist
What pisses me off about these people and the comments is the shear hubris and ONLY thinking about humans survival.... And not the rest of the biosphere ...... If our children have to live in habitats like LITERAL SPACESHIPS to survive and will never experience grass...or a dragonfly or bee landing on them. Or lady bugs...or horses or elephants or whales etcetcetc. ... To have these relegated to the same mythical category as a dragon or unicorn.... Is so unconscionable I don't understand how all these so called intelligent people just carry on and shrug...

"The economy will be fine"

True Idiocracy moment....

asacrowflies··on I Stopped Being a Climate Catastrophist
Don't forget most animal like lions tigers and bears oh my! Becoming as mythical as a dragon or fairy.... The theft from future generation and children is immeasurable imo
asacrowflies··on I Stopped Being a Climate Catastrophist
The long term like the year 3000 is indeed absolutely catastrophic ...

asacrowflies··on I Stopped Being a Climate Catastrophist
Just because humans are dumb especially things on this time scale. Does not make the fools and deniers any less deplorable....

Holocene extinction - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocene_extinction

You all call yourself pragmatist but us doomers actually seem to be the only ones who want any of humanity to survive at all ....

asacrowflies··on I Stopped Being a Climate Catastrophist
You have to be supremely ignorant... Bordering on flat earther or evolution denial/young earth creationist... To believe this will work out like that..... This won't be a nice change of pace for your climate. It will be a mass extinction even humans have never experienced. It's obscene even. And this language of 'catastrophism' literally sounds like woo woo therapy speak by unscientific fools. Calling it not a "catastrophy' will be looked at as immoral as slavery in the future generation imo.

asacrowflies··on How the Mayans were able to accurately predict solar eclipses for centuries
We don't really have abundance tho.... We have massive over consumption that feels like abundance. Like a gambler
asacrowflies··on Grokipedia and the coup against reality
Yes!!! Seize all usa subsidized assets and send him back to South Africa.
asacrowflies··on ICE Will Use AI to Surveil Social Media
You keep saying kill... I only ever said " the fullest extent of the law" I find it very telling you know the depths and criminality of this treason .... And come to the proper conclusions on your own of what the law says happens LOL
asacrowflies··on ICE Will Use AI to Surveil Social Media
You literally used "communist" and other vague "terrorist" language to justify your bullshit as reasonable or sane. And I want that same energy turned back on MAGA . They are literally subverting our nation and more dangerous than any communist . Citizen vs non citizen is irrelevant to the constitution as you have been told repeatedly. If this is how the law is going to play out. Then I want it applied to ALL extremist and terrorists. Period.
asacrowflies··on ICE Will Use AI to Surveil Social Media
Rules for thee and not for me much?lol
asacrowflies··on ICE Will Use AI to Surveil Social Media
The bill of rights and constitution and the courts interpretation of these is crystal clear and your argument borders on treason and a subversion and "Material support for terrorist organizations (even verbal/written advocacy. "

Which I hope to see prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law in coming years. MAGA need to be purged like the communists.
