I don't think there's any actual right wing anymore. At least not in terms of values or opinions or politics. They're not conservatives or anything of that kind.

It has been completely devoured by induced populism run by facists. It's not really populism, because it's not popular as such and it's not against the elite. It's induced - by the billionaire elite.

These facists need the data centers and AI to push their opinions to gullible voters. Just like Hitler used massive rallies to take advantage of group pressure to make people think they shared his views, the fascist are using the algorithms of social media to make gullible people believe that they have the presented opinion on something that they don't actually give a shit about.

So that's why AI is not really a right wing thing, but still presented as being on that side. If we could find a country in the world where the left wing were the gullible idiots, I'm certain the facists would do the exact same thing there on that side. The facists don't give a shit about politics, because they really do want break democracy. All they need is stupid people, which AI is delivering, and they'll sell it through any political ideology present to them.

Trump is doing just that for them. I wonder if he's even aware of himself being used for this. Obviously he's a massive idiot and a selfish asshole, but sometimes he'll talk about fixing things and doing good stuff, and maybe he even believes he's doing that. However, it always turns out that corruption beats whatever intention he had. It always turns to shit the next day. His staff spends every second day explaining why Trump is an asshole and every second day explaining why Trump wasn't enough of an asshole. It doesn't matter what he says or wants. His only role was to scoop up the gullible idiots.

Nobody designed it. There's no purpose to it. It still failed.

Why doesn't he just do it himself?

Asking people to join his team seems like he's trying to organize a union.

Why are all the exits in Spain Italian cities?

Never heard about it.

But now I am intrigued.

The hardware store near me uses it as a selling point. "We keep low prices due to self service".

The staff only knows how to scan the barcode and use the credit card terminal. Everything else in on the webpage.

If we give them optimal conditions and the sole purpose of multiplying, it'd still take at least 400 years. 8 billion is a big number, but once it gets going, they multiply fast

It's an interesting idea, because it shows that the crazy ideas that Hitler had about breeding would not work. All the people outside the experiment would easily outbreed them, simply because there's more to begin with.

The same for populating Mars by breeding. Not going to happen. Earth could easily outnumber the Martians by sending a single ship in that timeframe. Whatever purpose colonizing Mars has, it'd be a waste of time trying to breed humans there.

Same thing for the fearmongering about Muslims outbreeding the European populations. Not happening. Whatever cultural differences we have today will be far gone by the time that the genetics of either group outbreed the other. It's like complaining about half the current population being descendants of Ghengis Khan. It makes no difference.

I still think it's an euphemism for fellatio.

Work phone. Boss needs that sell through report dead or alive.

I watched a stream of the eclipse earlier this month which had a feed of viewer questions.

• Is it a coincidence that it's also new moon on the same day as the eclipse?
• How can the moon cover the sun when it a new moon?
• In which direction should we watch?

Give outs, without some effort, will just lead people to rot.

I rather think that the people who want to rot are going to rot in any system. The difference is that leeching off the current system is a full time occupation. We might as well just pay them to stay home, giving them a chance to actually do something other than battling bureaucracy in a welfare system or pretending to work in a bullshit job.

People need the fulfillment that a good days work provides

You can always work. UBI does not prevent anyone from working. They can work for themselves or for others or for money.

Dogville.

Or maybe I misunderstood the question, and/or the movie.

The dog is a drawing on the ground. It has a very small part, yet the dog won an award in Cannes for the movie.

It would be interesting to play with a simulation and then throw a larger planet at Earth than the one that is assumed to have created the moon. Just to see what it'd look like from Earth.

Crowbar stocks is on the rise.

Yeah, it makes me wonder if there's some mathematical balance about it that we just can't prove.

It does seem logical. If the moon was bigger, would it have an orbit further out? If the sun was bigger, would Earth have an orbit further out?

Perhaps it just lines up that way. The other planets have more or no moons so there's nothing comparable elsewhere in this solar system.

... all because they don't have sticks?

Fucking idiots.

They can buy billions of sticks, but they'd be useless, because they didn't get them the right way. I myself would not appreciate a stick that I bought regardless of how much money it cost.

Once you understand this, you can also find rocks and seashells worth more than trillions of money.

So you can argue about the quality and/or sentimental value of ownership of sticks, but that's also not the point.

It's your own appreciation of the stick that makes it valuable. You can not get that, unless you just get it.

Can't buy it, can't sell it, can't even give it away, but it exists and you get it. It is real.

I have a lot of shit. I also have a piece of cardboard shaped like a fish that I appreciate. On my deathbed I will not ask to touch my latest car or the cobber stringed guitars. I'll ask for the cardboard that I value the most, because it was gifted to me. And that's just sentimental value.

A good stick is even beyond that. My appreciation of a good stick is such that I cannot even claim to own it. It's not sentimental value or ownership or history or quality. A proper good stick is one that you want to pass on.

I have a bunch of them, so theoretically I'm the richest man alive. At least currently, because like I just said, they don't really belong to me. I have to give them away to realize the value of the asset. Just like stocks and money.

The reaction videos make no sense to me either. The few that pop into my feed are usually just some face nodding and barely reacting to an endless stream of slop shorts.

Nothing on that list would have saved Mr.& Mrs. Null from their constant hassle with systems.

Yeah about that.. nothing modern about it. That's what it was supposed to be by the old observations when people had actual scarcity of .. wheat and corn or whatever.

It doesn't work for alcohol today. There are still people doing moonshine brew because it can't get cheap enough. The demand will never reach a bottom nor a peak.

It's layers of markets. If you can't sell your shit brew at "market price" you can always dump the price and reach a new market of bottom feeders or go the other way and pay influencer to make a silly drinking game to make artificial scarcity in the upper market.

There's always enough supply and demand that everything is possible.
